More killers like Pyramid Head?

Pyramid Head’s Cage of Atonement ability is unique in that he is currently the only killer who doesn’t have to carry a survivor to a nearby hook (under certain conditions).


It’s a neat way to avoid perks like Decisive Strike or even Unbreakable as it provides another option for the killer instead of just waiting out the decisive strike perk to expire.

So how about we add more killers or rework old ones with an alternative to carrying survivors to a hook.

    Doubt. And i would bet that they are going to change how the cages work to make the hook related perks still work sadly.

    Depends on the perk.


    I'm fine with We'll Make It working against a Cage.


    Deliverance should not.

    What about making it a perk? For example, upon downing a survivor, press certain button on a downed survivor to instantly hook them in the place they are or in a random position in the map, like a "virtual" hook, which will vanish after the Survivor is rescued. Every 2 hooks, you gain 1 token up to 5. Using the ability takes one token.

    You have to work for it and you can avoid certain perks, while activing hook perks and survivor related perks too, without losing time.

    I think all killers should be more unique. They are all kind of the same right now. You can loop all of them (except nurse), blind them (p head somehow), and stun them. I think that it would be in BHVR's best interests to create unique killers after they fix their game but we all know that'll ever happen.

    So basically, no. I think that p head is very unique still and I would rather see a new killer with abilities that let them, pressure survivors, in different ways that is fun for both sides.

    I doubt it. They've been pretty adamant about hook perks not working off cages. It feels like that's something that they had to agree upon in the licence. Konami is a tough cookie and it seems reasonable they wouldn't give up one of their iconic products without making sure it ended up being unique.

    I say yes.
