I hate where I have to use an addon to make the killer viable

For example, I have to use map of the realm on knight or toy sword on twins otherwise their power is near impossible to use. I hope that some day they add these to their power and then I can finally use different addons instead of the same one every match.

  • There are more than a few killers, that need some adjustments in this regard. Map Of The Realm should be base kit as well as Toy Sword. Other killers like Pig, Doctor and Hillbilly need 1 of their addons to be partially base kit and the addons adjusted accordingly.

  • true I was thinking the same about Knight he is unplayable without map of the realm, it's odd when a common add-on is mandatory

    If bhvr pull out their data spreadsheet they would see map of the realm is #1 used addon no doubt about it but that's my speculation and I don't work at their company.

    Very true. Doctor at least need a range addon basekit. Which pig and hillbilly addons do you want to see basekit?

  • Addons should be stronger, not basekit.

    There is a different between 2 better addons and 3 addon slots. Though some addons are too weak that 2 weak addons should be merged into one.

    For Pig I'd like to see Combat Straps or maybe the Workshop Grease at least partially base kit. As it is, her ambush is rather weak and completely useless on quite a number of loops because the survivor can simply leave as soon as the Pig starts crouching.

    Billy is very reliant on the engravings so it would be nice to see his base speed slightly increased and the addons changed accordingly. Even 5% would make him feel a lot better. Though you probably could even go as far as making the Death Engraving without the downside base kit. I reckon, if they did change him in that regard they would let us test it on the PTB and we could see if 10% would be too strong.

    Its more about making powers functional, Twins is a good example, there are many loops and even just objects in this game that Victor can't hit without the toy-sword addon. Killers being forced to take an add-on so the power can actually function on a basic level is a different problem from having weak addons. Imagine if Pyramid head would be forced to take an add-on to make him able to hit through walls for example.

    Add-ons should enable build variety and being forced to take certain add-ons defeat that purpose.

  • Here are add ons i use every single time, Knight Map Of the Realm, Twins- Toy Sword, Bubba- Award Winning Chilli, Ghostface- Philly, Myers- J Myers Memorial, Doctor- High Stim Electrode.

    Sure they would. Then proceed to nerf it while adding 0.02586 percent to another add-on to BRING MORE IN LINE WITH OTHER ADD-ONS.

  • i think it is general consensus that twins is almost unplayable without toy sword but there is nothing being done about this sadly. at least it's only brown, i guess.

  • I mean... They gave her an addon rework and changed the rng component to be more reliable. So it's not like they would never buff her.

    But I see your point. Thinking about it, we are a bit overdue for the next Pig nerf anyway.

    Overdue? She literally just got a nerf in the Huntress Lullaby change two hotfixes ago.

    Damn, you're right. I forgot about that. It wasn't a direct nerf to her power though. Maybe we should remove the undetectable status from her stealth. Crouching and moving slower than a survivor should be enough. I mean, she is smaller while crouching!

    Don't forget, they nerfed her unique perk hangman's trick.

    You're in for a treat though. They just updated the knight addons and nerfed pillaged mead instead!

    What the hell is going on over at the balance department.

    Beats me. It's a mystery how they balance their game.

    Those are all good suggestions and should be basekit.

    You took the words out of my mouth. I don't have to say anything to C3, you did it for me.
