I think some big buffs (but not overpowered) would be if he could carry and start match with all his traps. This would make him much more better killer and more fun to play.

Of course, his bag addons would be reworked but still, this would be so much better.

Or at the very least, give him his brown addon bag by default and maybe even make his traps little bit darker by default.

    I only play trapper if I have a rift challenge and won't even bother with daily rituals, because I just can't do much with him, no matter how many hours of youtube videos I study. On certain maps, some players are absolutely deadly with him, but I daresay there are few Trapper mains out there. He could definitely use some help imo.

    I think he should just start with one more Bear Trap, just this tiny buff would make him so much better.

    Also how they buffed the first attempts to escape the traps... I don't feel much difference, people still escape from traps so easy.

    He should by default start with all of his traps, as you mentioned, at least his preparation phase would be a bit shorter and it would cut him some slack to go after survivors much earlier.

    But then again its like something from trapper gets broken every patch, so its like buffing him means nothing for some reason.

    It's kind of bizzare that the game's first character, and the character that is essentially the game's mascot, is so absurdly weak. He should start with all his traps by default, have his traps be dark by default, and give him a secondary ability. Like maybe his traps being disarmed and survivors escaping from his traps give him stacks which he can spend to temporarily buff his movement, vault, attack recovery speeds, or something.
