    Pig main here, I'll gives some insight on how a Reverse Bear Trap works! Automatic repair timer is a 2:30 second timer that automatically activates when a generator is completed assuming no other add-ons are being used. If that wasn't the answer that you was looking for, can you give me a picture on where it said that at! :)

    I think it's actually referring to the fact that it makes Trappers Bear Traps regenerate faster.

    Sometimes trolling is very obvious.

    Hangman's Trick only reduces the time it takes for sabotaged bear traps (Trapper only) to respawn by 60 seconds. When a bear trap is sabotaged, it returns after 180 seconds normally, and having Hangman's Trick on a Trapper reduces it to 120 seconds.

    Wait... the traps rearm themselves?

    No, when survivors sabotage the Trapper's traps, they are destroyed (where the Trapper can't use them anymore), so after 3 minutes, a new trap will spawn for the Trapper to use. Hangman's Trick makes new traps spawn sooner.

    @DarkWo1f997 Yeah? I wasn't trolling they actually do repair themselves now. Hangmans Trick makes them regenerate faster.

    Now we have conflicting information.

    Why does Pig’s perk buff trapper? I’m so confused.

    I'm not sure why it only effects Trappers ability but it does. Has no effect on the Pigs Reverse Bear Traps. I understand why you were confused with that though I was too at one point.

    I think it's because every other killer only suffers one effect of sabotage (loss of hooks), while the Trapper suffers two effects of sabotage (loss of hooks and bear traps).

    That’s fair. Kind of dirty that it costs $5 to make him more efficient though.

    Well, there's always a chance the perk can show up on the Shrine of Secrets. I don't know when that might ever happen.

    Right. That is true.

    Ohhh, I didn't know that he was asking if hangman trick affected a Reverse Bear Trap. Oops!

    It also makes Sabo'd Hooks respawn 10 seconds later at rank III. So if you see 4 toolboxes and or some Jakes take it and laugh your arse off.

    Oh yeah I like to mess with them, they sabo the hook as I’m about to hook someone, their laughs turn to silence as I drop the survivor, and the hook comes back 10 seconds later, then I get the hook anyways.

    I got called a troll for telling the truth on this thread! lol jk no worries I see the funny side of it. I don't get the whole Trapper thing either with this perk. Maybe a different perk that isn't DLC should give him that effect.

    Hi guys, i know it's a bit late but i'm actually still confused. Hangman's Trick is a perk made for Pig right ? I want to know how does "Sabotaged Bear Traps automatic repair timer is reduced by 60 seconds" helps ? i mean does it affect the Jigsaw boxes or ?
    Thanks.

    I just got an idea from reading this, what if there is an add-on for pig, listen here brother, what if there is an add-on for pig that, LISTEN BROTHER, what if there is an add-on for pig that everytime a generator finished if a survivor has the bear trap on, the timer goes down by Xseconds?

    Hmm, the RBT should have a 3 minute timer with instant activation meaning a generator isn't required to activate a timer. Furthermore, every generator will reduce the timer by 30 seconds or can speed the timer up by 25% (-35 seconds on the first generator then every generator after will have a reduced effect).
