Add a range system on Trapper`traps!

I was thinking that maybe Trapper needs to put his traps no closer than (let`s say) 10 meters from each other. I`m refering to killer shack when he puts his traps to both doors and the window or other buildings, camping at the same time and with red add-ons. It not exactly a nerf, if you think twice.

    Trapper is already a very strong contester for nr1 weakest Killer, and this 100% would be a nerf, since it would remove his ability to outsmart Survivors with a mixture of obvious and obscure traps around the same area. Basement play is one of his very few strengths.

    Let poor Evan have his few select mild strengths, I´m very baffled to read about a Trapper nerf suggestion of all Killers.

    In exchange, let him carry his traps like hag and give him like 20, because he wont be able to strategically close off areas. Ans he throws them, and they push themselves around so he doesnt have to aim them.

    Like the other comment said, this nerfs one of few strong parts of trapper, and even then that basement strat can be literally countered by DH, literally one of the most meta perks that ignores a killer's entire power.

    And if you think his iridescents are too strong.. perhaps compare them with the huntress's, or the already broken spirit addons.

    Trapper is already weak as they come. He needs a buff and not a nerf.


    You should actually be diaarming the traps as a survivor if you know where they're.

    trapper is not that weak actually... he is just not consistent at all and very situational... (which makes him the worst killer overall)

    There is no other killer as good as trapper when it comes down to shutting down 3 gens, defending both doors etc. He is literally the only one that can insta down people from across the map.

    The problem is he has no chasing power, traps are to easy to escape, to few in numbers, to easy to spot and disarm... he is alongside wraith a product of another time...

    What he needs is the basekit of having and carrying 3 traps from the start. you sometimes have to go stupidly far away to collect your power...

    Trapper only has handful of traps and limited places to use them without being easily seen. He doesn't need anymore limitations to his power.
