About Pinheads’s perks…

I have a quick question about pinheads perks. I already have pinhead and I have him prestige 8 currently, after pinhead leaves the store does that mean when new killers come in I’ll have to unlock pinheads perks on their bloodweb since they’ll be general perks or will his perks automatically be tier 3 on new killers?

    No, they'll still be Tier 3 automatically.

    Back when Stranger Things was removed, people who had the Teachables would get the Perks on every character at Level 1, so I'm pretty certain Pinhead's perks will work under the same system.

    But ST left before the prestige rework, so we can’t say for sure that the teachables will remain unlocked/tier 3 for future characters.

    Not for sure, but I'd say it's incredibly likely.

    If you own Pinhead, then the perks will remain unlockable through prestiging Pinhead - in your case since you already have him P8, nothing will change for you, all other killers will still have access to the perks. Additionally, you'll also get to keep the original names and flavor text of those perks. This is different from how it was handled with Stranger Things, where the perks were changed to general perks for everyone with new names even if you owned the ST characters.

    For those who don't own Pinhead, the perks will become general perks with new names and they will have to be unlocked through each killer's bloodweb individually the same as any other general perk.

    Yea, the different names is weird and is going to cause much confusion in the community.

    I feel like they should just do the same thing as they did with ST and make it so everyone sees Pinheads perks in the same way.

    Yea, like why do they have to change the name at all? Like if they HAVE to change the names for licensing reasons, I get it. So change it, as much as it sucks. But if they don't have to change the name, then not doing so is best. But doing both is… weird.

    If you own Pinhead then there's nothing to worry about

    If you have the Perks to tier 3 then they will be available to every Killer (new or old)
