Pyramid Head nerf

I feel from experience the hook and cage for pyramid head should be in different categories say someone was hooked it still counts towards the cages progress and vice versa i am ending games very quickly and the same goes for when i play survivor if their progress was separated in my opinion i feel it would be better and extend the overall gameplay

    Definitely nerf. I get camping is a part of the game according to devs but the camping/ tormented circle while camping.......makes the game sooooo fun🙄🙄

    Why would I ever use cages then?

    I think that a pyramid head nerf is inevitable. This smells a lot like when they added Ash last year. Instead of luring you into a purchase with an insanely strong perk (Mettle of Man), they're using a very strong killer. And just like Mettle of Man, once BHVR makes a certain profit, pyramid head will get nerfed.

    I don't think/support the separate hook and cage states idea but I think the nerf will be a longer cooldown from rites of judgement to basic attack or torment cooldown will be shorter.

    No one is saying he's very powerful outside of tunneling off cages, and even then I don't really think he's that strong at it either. Hag would probably be better for camping/tunneling.

    Most everyone is in fact saying he needs a buff. Not to cages, but to PotD.

    He really need a buff, no a nerf, in rank 1 he's kinda useless, the power can we ez dodge (range attack, to slow), the trail u can avoid and ez to no go into it....

    Pyramid Head isn't strong.

    The problem with Pyramid Head is the cages allow Pyramid Head to abuse tunneling. (The cages counter all the anti-tunneling perks that survivors have). As a survivor, you can't do anything if Pyramid Head strategy is to tunnel a survivor to death. And if you add killer tunneling perks, such as Blood Hound and Make a Choice, the game is over.
