Padded Jaws

Maybe I'm just dumb, but: Is there any reason to use Padded Jaws?
I'd really like to know in which cases this add on shines, cause if my understanding is correct it's just a bad version of any common offering (50% more bp for all actions of a category), in addition it takes up an add on slot and actually weakens you (by not injuring the trapped victims).

    It works just like Speed Limiter or Scarred Hand. Your main ability is taken, but you receive Bloodpoints faster. Nothing special.

    Pair it with Bloody Coil.

    They still get wounded when disarming to spite padded jaws.

    Thanks for the quick answers!
    I guess I'm never gonna use it...

    I use traps by herding survivors to the traps. I can just pick them up and not care about the damage. Works fine for that play style

    It is meant only as a BP farming method. It is not an add-on you bring into a match with the intent on killing. During Double Bloodpoint weekends it might be worth using as often you will get groups of people farming.

    you can still pick them up, right?
    if so, you get +100% more BP and still get the oneshot when picking someone up.
    i will probaply use them pretty often...

    Same as what's been mentioned, also good for people who want to farm during double BP. Still a super niche addon though.

    Thanks, if I got nothing left I may use them to get some other add ons, but as long as I have an alternative I'm gonna go with the alternative. That's probably the whole reason this add on exists, so that newer players can use them (since they got nothing else anyway) and level their chars up quickly.
