  • I guess but anyone can run the perk, it might also just be the devs enjoy making the newer killers a lot more expressive but yeah the sound just seems like an odd addition, not a massive issue but weird.

  • Yeah I might use it a bit just for some fun, I won't feel bad about using it anymore.

  • If your entire team is getting downed by a Hillbilly or a Leatherface that quickly then your team just isn't playing well, the chainsaw insta down is powerful but it can be prevented if you properly utilise pallets or windows. Hillbilly is one of the best killers but he's definitely not over powered he doesn't need changes honestly and Leatherface is under powered if anything as the slow he gets when charging his chainsaw really doesn't help him get survivors down.

  • @Rogis_Right_Hand btw I forgot to mention but the build I use on Clown is Ruin, Save the Best for Last, Bamboozle and Enduring. idk if it's the best honestly, I've been messing with it recently.

  • @DudeDelicious said:
    Honestly pay these haters no mind. The clown is really REALLY good. You already need to be pretty damn good at chases and preempting where survivors will run to, but his Afterpiece tonic is GOLD. Just be strategic with your add-ons such as using solvent jug if there are a heap of survivors in the lobby you expect will be using exhaustion perks. Yes you slow for a split second when throwing a bottle. Spilt second, no big deal. Make sure you’re closing in on survivors before lobbing any bottles rather than lobbing bottles from a distance. Lobbing a bottle just as you’re closing in on them will almost certainly slow the survivor enough for a guaranteed hit every single time. It’s very satisfying. There are fantastic perk combos that work awesome with the clown, too many for me to go into here, but Coulrophobia, Distressing, Sloppy Butcher, and Bloodhound means you will always ALWAYS find your injured survivors. I’ve gotten No One Escaped many many times with this perk combo. 

    Seriously? Haters? OP asked if Clown was worth buying and I gave my honest opinion because he is one of my most played killers. Also idk if would say his power is "gold," a lot of the time survivors can just reach pallets in time despite being intoxicated. And sure the slow down when throwing doesn't matter at loops but it does affect him if they are a good distance away and can dodge it, the slow he gets is just a dumb feature honestly as Clown is far from one of the best killers.

    Clown is a fun character but he's really not that great imo, he's supposed to be good in chase and counter looping but there are a lot of other killers that are much better in chase and unfortunately for Clown he has literally no map pressure so gens pop very quickly against him.

  • @thekiller490490 Yeah the Clown is a weird one he used to be one of my favourite killers to play but for some reason he gets slowed by 15% when throwing a bottle, meaning he drops to the speed of a survivor for a short time. It's a weird addition that I guess was put in to punish him for missed throws but it also takes away from the reward he gets of landing a successful hit and I think he already gets punished by missing because he is now down a bottle.

    So yeah idk if I can recommend the Clown tbh, he does have some good perks and he can be fun (especially with STBFL) but he's not all that good unfortunately.

  • Urban was a part of my build for a long time and I dropped it recently, it's a decent perk but a bit overrated in my opinion. Personally I'd say that Iron Will is a better stealth perk (especially after the Spirit's release), but if you think you don't think you need it then you might as well try other perks because you might find a better build.

  • ikr it looked so good before.

  • I don't like doing it as killer but sometimes I just have to because I need the hook and can't have four players running around free to do gens.

  • Yeah I'm pretty sure the devs said that Meg and Claudette were the two most played survivors but I get what you mean because with characters like Jake very few people play him so it is surprising that he has more cosmetics than Nea, Feng and David.

  • I think it's mainly because they are most played (especially Meg and Claudette) due to them being the original characters that everyone owns. But yeah I do agree as I would love the other characters to get a bit more love in terms of cosmetics, but I think BHVR is trying to appeal to the majority with giving the original characters so many cosmetics.
