Pig rework or buff

Alright so as we all know the pig is kinda weak, not overpowered but at the same time not under powered. In my opinion she is weak af and she is know for putting her traps on someone's head and they go to the nearest jigsaw box and instantly get it taken off. Tbh it feels like you have to be lucky for a survivor to not get it taken off at the first box. I know its like a luck thing and a curtain box has the key to it but it just feels like the key will spawn at the nearest jigsaw box whenever you put a RBT on a survivor. I know people will say its not meant to kill but to slow down the game but with it continuing like this, there is no slowing down the game. Its just a almost useless gadget. She needs to get these worked on

    They said pig will be getting an addon pass sometime in the future. I wish they look into pig's RNG issue while they are at it and make the time it wastes predictable. Survivors will have to search atleast 10-12 jigsaw boxes to get rid of all 4 traps instead of it being anywhere between 4-16 (base)

    I feel like an add-on where you can power up one generator in order to activate all traps on survivors at the time would actually be really interesting. It seems counterproductive at first, but then considering you could force survivor groups into more difficult gen setups in the late game, activate traps whenever you want (at the cost of one gen to keep some balance) and go patrol jigsaw boxes instead of gens, possibly leading to a kill. That would add an interesting strategy to use with pig and hopefully make the traps a little bit more effective

    Yeah cause right now litteraly a survivor can search one box and almost always get it taken off. In my opinion she needs a full on rework instead of just an add on

    The only problem is survivors get the trap off way to easy and fast. Like search one box and get it off fast

    She DOESN'T need a full rework, but there are certain limits that should be lifted. Unfortunately one of the ones I'd suggest has already been made impossible.

    I love to play as Pig regardless, but if she was given add ons that made me want to change up my usual use of the Jigsaw Tape and Syringe/Combat Straps every game, then I'm all for it. 😁


    I just wish they delayed her roar until she STARTED her Ambush. And that her knife didn't make a super loud "SHINK" sound every time it retracted and extended. But I'm sure they'll keep those how they are, to give the Survivors reliable counterplay, which is understandable.

    She NEEDS an add-on pass. She has way too many straight-up awful add-ons. A buff or two here and there would also be really nice.
