Pyramid heads add ons and perks are a joke

Both the ultra rares are a joke and are useless the very rare are meme level trash an add on that gives hemorrhage is apprently strong enough to be a very rare add on same for blindness lmao and don't forget killer instinct! And why do the devs think oblivious and undetectable is that strong to be pink or purple like what? Who playtests these things what is going on in the minds of the balancing team?! The icing on top is the perks forced penance...seriously these are the perks we get every 3 months what could we get in new new dlc to change the meta?! 60 second broken status effect...oh yeah and give undetectable status effect by kicking a gen to be stealthy but also tell exactly the area where the killer is by showing the generator he just kicked in bright yellow for every survivor to see! Because if that wasn't there the survivors wouldn't know anything was happening according to a dev isn't the perks intention to make sure the survivor is clueless? Nevermind but Thats pretty strong man I think it needs a cooldown too! Deathbound is his only "good perk" but will never get used. The best add ons for pyramid head is the range add on and the coo,down reduction or increasing the trail duration there's no other interesting add ons he has and it sucks I'm really upset how lazy the add ons and perks were made it's unbelievable I had to rant about it. Here's to hoping the perks might be fixed and made viable in the mid chapter patch and mabye some add on changes.

    Aight not gonna lie, been using forced penance on deathslinger, it's actually quite good.

    It looks bad on paper, i'll agree, but in execution (heh) it's actually alright.

    His add-ons are pretty good I dont believe you're using him or his perks effectively.

    A few of the add ons seem really weak.

    Crimson Ceremony Book (very rare) gives hemorrhage to tormented survivors. When is that ever useful?

    Obsidian Goblet (ultra rare) makes PH undetectable when walking on his trails. Weak, would be a lot better if it worked while placing trails.

    Totally agree his add-ons are pure trash, just the add-ons for long range attack, and time for the trails are good, I hope they change it

    same as perks or addons for deahslinger... and I dont really wanna mention poor demogorgon and his perks and addons :D it really sucks to have only usable addons brown and 1 yellow :D


    for deathslinger its kinda the same.. most of the addons are pure trash and due to how quick games are and how ######### spearing survivors is - due to insane tiny hitboxes most of his addons are pure trash.. but yeah lets give him ultra rare for 15 m :D once again deathslinger is viable only with like 3 addons thats all

    that head of balance team should be definitely have some talks becasue no idea what they are smoking.. if community who obviously is pointing on something and its not like few people but serious ammount of people than you should think about it..


    but who am I kidding demogorgon is here for 10 months and not even change to his base kit, addons or perks.. so dont ever think abotu some changes .... its so shame and sad and its just frustrated to see how in ######### state this game is, but how funny and cool this game still can be.. but not with few people who are in charge..

    He's just average enough and having the same elder god players that inhibit Nurse that he goes by under the radar but you're not wrong.

    sure no problem hit me up I love demo and yes hes not best killer hes not the weakest hes in the middle, and he needs some serious tweaks.. or you think that his base kit, addons or awesome perks are fine ? pure ######### sadly except surge which is nice, but could be buffed a little as well

    Trying to think of the last decent killer that was new with or without their perks...

    The Legion addons are a bit sad too, there are 4 usefull addons and the others are trash or gives you such a small boost,so you don't even notice it.

    Seriously, I don't understand why BHVR won't just experiment with certain things with lesser played killers. Make Rat Liver and Deer Lung base kit on Demo and take away his map wide portal notification for a week and see how the community reacts. If he's too "op pls nerf" then just revert changes easy as that. I don't get why they don't try new things with underused perks either, but I guess everything now a days is about money and pushing out new content as much as you can.

    Pyramid actually has the “Demo” effect, thats what I am calling it, where 1 add-on is okay if you use it with perks and other add-ons, while the other is absolutely useless and won’t see any usage outside of meme builds


    His coin add-on (which I believe is BBQ with extra steps) is really useful for how I use pyramid head, I don’t cage until everyone is tormented and I get a BBQ effect for free without using the perk

    His goblet is absolutely useless as most of the time you will be using his ability in the chase, not around the map

    I don't dislike two of the perks but addons suck and why is haemorrhage purple? Apart from the larger question of why are haemorrhage addons still a thing, all killer addons that apply it are yellow, with the exception of wraith's which is green and also applies mangled.

    Edit: forgot Freddy's purple add-on which can cause bleeding in healthy survivors too, which is cool and still not useful.
