Brown Toolboxes: Problem? Or not?

I ######### hate brown toolboxes ######### these little droppings from satan himself, sure getting a key might make you win the game but a ######### brown toolbox will not just win you the game but it will cause the killer you play against to have several years of unending trauma of the horrors that they have just witnessed. Brown toolboxes are like Old Brand New Parts except magnified by 3x and overdosed on liquor. Please BHVR nerf these ######### hellborn lunchboxes.

I hate them.

Anyways, opinions on brown toolboxes?

DId they nerf freddy before nerfing these things? GoobyNugget.

    Really? You're taking a stand against brown toolboxes when broken keys are still running rampant in my games? They give ten whole seconds of aura reading abilities and survivors have a chance to find one of these little bastards in any chest. Killers can't do anything about it; it's there now and even Franklins can't get rid of it for good. Broken keys? It's right in the name, this ######### is broken AF. Fix your game, developers.

    Agreed. Especially with brown add-ons. Too overpowered.

    I think if a survivor has a broken key and the killer has Franklins Demise, that instead of disappearing after 90 seconds, that it should duplicate itself every 90 seconds. 1 broken key becomes 2, 2 becomes 4, etc etc. The killer can get a broom out of the locker and try and sweep them out the exit but if he doesn't soon enough, the entire stage will fill with broken keys until the killer drowns in them.

    Brown tools and brown meds are amazing survivor items, but they're good for what they are. If you hate them so much just run Franklin's.

    Brown toolboxes are so overpowered, I’m so glad we, as a community, can take a stand against the injustice. These objects make me miserable on the off chance I play killer. Nerf them!

    Brown toolboxes are actually so OP nobody uses them because they feel bad about it

    I mean, they're nice for getting Rookie Spirit activated quickly, but apart from that, they suck.

    yea, for the killer!

    1 brown toolbox can set off your tinkerer 5 times in just 8 seconds

    I just wish they had, like, 8 more charges. I like the idea of how Toolboxes operate now but it never feels particularly effective to use unless you have a BNP.

    Every time I get a brown toolbox from a chest instead of a brown med-kit while injured, I'm like, "Wow, I can do a generator faster for a total of 16 seconds! How exciting!"

    Seriously tho, nerf the brown toolbox. It's op as hell.

    They are good for those "deplete toolboxes" challenges in the tome. Too easy.
