Your absolutely right, time lost to generators can never be gained back once they are complete. There are plenty of gen defending perks, but after awhile they get predictable and boring, sometimes even unreliable.
A SWF, even if it is just 2 or 3 of them, will show you just how little control you have if you don't properly patrol. Some trials you will just not be able to defend effectively as other times.
Yes survivors have many second chance perks, yes each killer is different and preforms differently on each map. But when I play and see killers just not knowing when to let a good looper go, they have no right to blame them for their bad choices. Their are many ways to bait out these good survivor perks and tactics. How relevant that is depends on your killer, map location, and personal skill. It's ok to lose generators, no killer can effectively chase all 4 survivors at all times, the game would be very unfair at that point.
For example on a single story map like fractured cowshed, if you patrol maintain half of the map you want to defend you will see that there is no such thing as free generator progress at that point. By the time survivors need to finish 1 or 2 generators, they wont have an easy time as the remaining ones are all within a small section of the whole map. As a killer you need to focus on defending your zone, even if it means letting survivors go if they try to make you chase them to the other side of the map. Because if you break off of your zone, they will destroy you since they will most likely have all of the pallets on their side of the map.
The best case scenario of a game with gen rushing survivors is to get one hooked near where your defense zone. All you have to do is wait and the others will just throw themselves at you to get an unhook. It may not be the best tactic but survivors that try to simply rush gens have no actual game plan. If you are having this much trouble defending gens, you should instead switch out to some end game perks.
At the end of the day though, how good or bad a trial is mostly dependent on the killer. I play 50/50 when it comes to survivor and killer so I can see the fault of both sides. If a killer doesn't use their perks/add-ons properly, or relies to heavily on a hex totem that can easily be wiped out, they have no one but themselves to blame. A small portion of this also goes to survivors, because there have been and will always be those dumb idiots that will do nothing but crouch walk, hide in corners, or in lockers if they even hear a killer heartbeat.

The real problem that it forces boring gameplay for survivor. Killers don't have time to 12 hook with this broken 4ss gen speed. So they have to tunnel 2 survivors, and slug other 2. That's boring gameplay for everyone. I agree with the changing targets and 3 gen, but this alone is not enough to compensate for the unbalanced gen speed. If gen speed was ok, it would be better for everyone.

A general rule I follow is if I cant get a hit or pallet out of a survivor in less than 15 seconds I will leave them. If they go to a very strong loop like the killer shack or other unique map based ones, I'll just leave them. Because when you chase a survivor for too long the others are guaranteed to be on generators. So just break off and interrupt a survivor on a generator.
I usually let a few generators go though, because it is just impossible to defend every generator. This is also presuming that these survivors are actually doing generators and not searching for totems or chests. Because a friend group will do this all the time, just try to control which generators you want to defend by the end game and hook survivors as close to them as you can.
A big mistake I see other killers do, when I play survivor, is they either just don't give up a bad chase that alone will destroy any control they could scrounge up by then end without endgame perks.
Your perks and killer matter a lot in the style you should play as well. Ex: If you are playing wraith the last thing you should do is chase down a survivor. Instead focus on ambushing and cutting of survivors as you uncloak and most hits are guarantied that way.

You can't regain the time you spent trying to get a hit on the best looper. 15 seconds is equal to 18.75% free progress. That's pretty much 3 gens with half progress. Plus the time you'll have for finding another person, plus the time to down them, plus 12% free progress from the hooking process.

What I am trying to say is that this game gives too much free gen progress, it's actually #########. Look at what happened on the high MMR week test, 5 gens done in 7 minutes against 4k hours killers. ######### even is this game.

If you take in consideration how many 2nd chances survivors have compared to how killer are harldy punished even by just wiffing an atttack, this only gets worse.

This is why the game is full of sweaty Nurses/Spirits that slug and tunnel. In some matches if you don't do it you lose, and there's nothing else to be said.

Why are you devoting yourself to chasing only one person?
If you see that they're clearly taking up more time than you should be giving them, go for somebody else. Most of the time, this will inflate their ego enough and they'll just follow you to try and get your attention instead of doing gens.

This is true, except that the time you wasted to discovered he was a good loopers can't be regained. If you chase a good looper 3 gens are guaranteed to be 25%, then you need to find another survivor which will take more time. Still gens will be flying.

Yeah. Something like this song. It really follows DBD patterns of becoming more intense as the "killer gets closer". I can imagine it.

She's not trash, but not that far from it honestly.
I think she needs a rework to make her ambush actually skillful and strong in a chase by being less predictable and more easy to use. Her RBTs also need to get rid of the RNG aspect to it. Then we can start talking about her addons.

That is what my suggestions will make.

Pig is mostly fine as is.
She's only really weak against the upper percent of players, not even just red ranks but the actually decent people- and when RNG is very much not in her favor. That's about it.
She is a very low tier killer for those reasons; but she is mostly fine and doesn't need a huge rework or anything to that extent. She has the second highest kill rate in most ranks, and 4th highest in red ranks- we all place her at the bottom tier because if you go against REALLY good top end groups she will get dunked on.
So in summary, all she really needs is a few small changes to help her at very high level play; and the most requested change which is less reliance on RNG which would be better for both survivors and killer.
Going so far as to call Pig "trash" though is absolutely absurd.

She's a M1 killer.

"She's decent againt the average killer" what killer isn't?

Her stealth is slow. Her ambush midgame is survivor sided.

As I right in my reasoning her entire power was wrongly designed, and so as her add ons.

She's been trash for so many years. The only killers that are worse than her are trapper and clown. That is not even a complement.

She has potential.

As I Pig main, all I feel right now is pain and sadness, with a slight touch of suffering sometimes.

For the love of God and everything that is sacred and divine she needs a buff right now or I'm gonna pop my own head this time.

If you think Blight's power isn't effective in loops you don't know what a good Blight is. Period. Just watch any tournament Blight playing out there.

You don't know what a good Blight is, and neither a good Wraith. I would suggest you to hear what Blight mains have to say about his power beeing used to loop.
