Killers need addon checks
I feel like progress on Killer changes has been too slow lately, when it shouldn't be honestly. While some QoL fixes/reworks for killer powers are needed ASAP, I think one of the biggest issue for all killers is that they all have some useless add-ons. The killers with the worst addons in my opinion include:
Myers, Leatherface, Pig, & Legion
Addons allow for killers to receive boosts & change up their playstyle to throw off survivors. Some killers do not even have many addons that allow for different playstyles. Killers that I think have very good addons for this include:
Wraith, Doctor, Freddy, & Hag
These killers should be examples used when it comes to redesigning killer addons. They tried giving Nurse some addon reworks, but honestly they failed with a good portion of them. At least with the change to Nurse's power they could have given her better addons to switch up her playstyle. Instead, they just gave her the most situational addons possible.
All addons should provide something beneficial to the killer, & not something that is barely noticeable. Like the acceleration addons for Leatherface, stalking movement speed for Myers & Ghost Face, disarm time addons for trapper, blood orb absorption speed/range for Oni, etc. These are some of the worst addons in my opinion that I almost never use. I just want to make use of all addons each killer has, so the devs need to get on this & make them all actually useful at least in some way.

I mean, doesn't Myers have one of the most iconic alternative playstyle in Jump Scare Myers?

They don’t NEED better add ons. The game already gives you so much. Another whiny killer complaint man come on. This game doesn’t need to have killers running around putting people down faster than they already can. I’d rather not play it anymore. If I can spawn in and see a teammate go down 5 seconds into the game because of an iridescent head add on or something that lets you gain exposed faster or swing your weapon faster like that’s just not fun for survivors. The thrill of the game comes from the chase and I think they’ve buffed killers too much already. Ghost face needs to be reworked he doesn’t need a 0 terror radius and have the ability to get exposed on you so quickly. You gotta give back a little. Some killers just have it way too easy and you’re sitting here complaining about a need for a better add on? Why don’t they just let killers spawn in and insta kill you without the chase. Spawn in and blow up the map 😂 I’m telling you I’ve never seen such a killer sided game sometimes. I can go a mile without seeing a pallet sometimes but others they’re around every corner. Not everyone can run the killer infinitely and for that reason alone I don’t think killers need more than they already have. You act like you’re going all game without downing or hooking anyone. So Selfish you think people want to come in and die for you every game 🤔 playing solo has become more of a pain than anything I’ve ever seen before

That's the trapper addon rule... if there's a spring, it ain't worth a thing.
But I think myers is an example of fun addons. With his mirrors and stuff.

I agree with absolutely everything here but also want to add that Nurse’s addons are actually pretty good - The brown, yellow and green ones I mean (Minus the meme addons). As a Nurse main I use blink recovery and fatigue decreases far far more than waking nurse and that weird blink back to where you were standing but at half the distance addon. The iridescents are quite shameful too, bookmark isn’t terrible but it sounds more like a yellow /green addon. (This does not include the purple range addon because cmon, it’s range, what’s not to like?)

This might come off as a bit offensive, which isn't my intent, and I'm likely wrong with my assumption, but reading your posts and considering your username, you almost seem like a killer main who is trying to make survivor mains look bad on this forum.
If not though, this thread is about useless and weak killer addons that should be buffed. This wouldn't be a buff to any killer as killers still have good addons that can be use instead, it would just increase the options a player has when picking addons for a killer. It also doesn't exclude nerfs to overpowered addons like Iridiscent Head, which I agree need nerfing.
You really need to stop trying to ridicule anyone who makes a post that is in some way in favor of killers. It's getting ridiculous. This game won't just be balanced around you and your opinion, which is good because from what I can see, barely anyone would end up still playing killer if that was the case.
I also doubt they'll nerf Ghostface or any of the stealth killers.

Some killers do need a addon check. There are killers with several addons that do absolutely nothing useful for the killer, & how the devs came up with these ideas makes zero sense (i.e. stalking movement speed addons for Myers & Ghost Face). I also in no way said the addons have to be OP & grant insta downs. I mostly just want all addons to actually provide something that is beneficial to the killer & not have minimal to no effect.
Also, this game is also not killer sided, as any good survivor team stands a better chance of escaping than a good killer having a chance of 4 K'ing. Not that the game is heavily survivor sided either, but if I had to choose who the game favors more its the survivors without a doubt.

You never know what kind of myers you are going against. It could be jump scare or tombstone myers.

Bubba need new add ons due to most of it being copy and pasted from billy.
