Jigsaw's Baptism Buffs & QOL Improvements | Ultimate Concept (DEVS PLEASE READ!)

Hex_BoopTheSnoot

Major WALL OF TEXT warning.

With The Pig changes confirmed to be coming soon, I thought I'd post my Jigsaw's Baptism wishlist of buffs and QOL improvements one final time. These changes have been revised countless times over an entire year, and while some would be unreasonable to think they'd ever be implemented, I still believe in them all. And here I am saying first, the next Killer I'm doing an Ultimate Concept for is The Nightmare. I know he was just reworked, but nothing is ever perfect, and I have my own wishlist of QOL improvements for him.

POWER CHANGES

REVERSE BEAR TRAPS

• You must hold the Power Button to set a Reverse Bear Trap upon a Survivor, instead of just tapping.

• Decrease the time it takes to set a Reverse Bear Trap to 3 seconds, down from 3.3 seconds.

• When a Survivors Reverse Bear Trap's Death Timer is paused, the Death Timer icon (Indicated by their Status Icon) will appear yellow instead of white.

• Jigsaw Box auras will only be revealed to Survivors wearing an active Reverse Bear Trap.

• The first Jigsaw Box a Survivor searches will never contain the correct key to remove their Reverse Bear Trap.

• When a Survivors Reverse Bear Trap Death Timer reaches 0, their aura is revealed to all Survivors until the Reverse Bear Trap Death animation finishes.

• When a Survivors Reverse Bear Trap reaches 0, instead of the trap immediately triggering, the Survivor will panic and attempt to remove their Reverse Bear Trap just before it triggers.

• When a Survivors Reverse Bear Trap triggers, their location is revealed to the Killer.

• Survivors mouths will appear unnaturally wide open as of a result from a triggered Reverse Bear Trap.

• Once a Survivor has fallen to the ground and died from their Reverse Bear Trap, the Survivor's Status Icon will be replaced with the died icon.

• When a Survivor dies from a Reverse Bear Trap and their body has already fallen to the ground, their body will disappear to signifiy their return to the Campfire.

CROUCHING (SKULKING)

• The crouch and stand action is replaced with the Skulk and Stop Skulking action.

• Skulking is similar to crouching, but you no longer crouch, your movement speed is no longer decreased but increased by 10% and you gain Undetectable at the beginning of the Skulk transition.

• The time it takes to fully begin Skulking and stop Skulking (Previously Crouch and Stand) is decreased to 1 second.

• The Skulking (Formally crouch & stand) transition animation is reworked to account for the above changes.

• A new (Louder) SFX will play while in the Skulking transition animation.

AMBUSH DASH

• The Pig's Ambush Dash SFX now plays after fully charging your Ambush Dash, instead of during.

• When charging your Ambush Dash, The Pig preforms a new animation and a new (Quieter) SFX plays.

• Ambush attacks trigger and grant Tokens towards The Third Seal, Franklin's Demise, Remember Me, Dark Devotion, Surge, & Sloppy Butcher (The perks descriptions will be updated to reflect this exception).

BLOODPOINT CHANGES

DEVIOUSNESS

• REVERSE BEAR TRAP SET: +500 BP 

Previously called the TRAP SET Score Event.

New Score Event. Gain +5 BP for every 1% a Survivors Reverse Bear Trap Death Timer progresses. These points are awarded when either the Survivor removes their trap or dies from it. This idea was inspired by Reddit user u/starlitepony

Previously a Sacrifice Score Event.

BRUTALLY

• AMBUSH ATTACK: +500 BP 

Previously a Deviousness Score Event.

SACRIFICE

I think the animation/body changes to be unnecessary, but the rest is reasonable
