Best Way to Play Pig
I remember I used to have fun playing Pig, but for the life of me, I can't remember how. What's the best way to play her, including perks and addons, that make her both viable and fun to play?

Chase survivors, down them.

Maybe when you know your about to lose a gen find a survivor and down them so the trap will activate so they now have to be focused on getting it off rather then other things.

Well yeah, but I mean theres gotta be some creative perk builds out there.

You use Tampered Timer and Crate of Gears to make your RBT very deadly (especially on Racoon City map).
The other one is to use Combat Straps and second slot whatever you want for better stealth play.

Ah, thats a good point.

Don’t
On a serious note use her dash add ons and use it at loops since that’s the only fun part of her kit

Tampered timer and that one purple addon that adds an additional jigsaw box.
Run Ruin, Devour, undying, and thrill.
The idea is to slow down the game by overwhelming the team with objectives, do gens but get hats off while dealing with undying so you can stop devour and ruin. all while cleansing speed is really slow. If you intterupt the cleansing, they have to start from the beginning again, same with searching. Because of all of this, heads might pop, or devour will start killing. very fun and gets the survivors running for days.

Gonna take a bit of a different stance here.
Run Combat Straps, Shattered Syringe, Whispers, Monitor and Abuse, Enduring, and then the last perk is a bit of a wild card (Brutal, I'm All Ears, BBQ, whatever).
Whispers + Monitor on Pig does a ton to enable her stealth, as when you're approaching a Gen, Whispers will turn on and you can crouch, keep going, and know that there's a Survivor there that you're going to ambush. Combat Straps and Syringe do a lot to make using your Dash mid chase actually work, and Enduring is just nice for allowing you to play more aggressively in chase.
Yes this build is lacking slowdown, but that's what Pig's hats are. Also if you have to, the wild card slot could be Pop or Oppression or whatever.

Oh that's unfortunate. Monitor is really helpful for enabling her stealth.

Do More Objectives Build: Franklins, Hex Undying, NoED, Haunted Grounds. Crate of Gears+Extra jigsaw box. (Fun build, mainly focused on giving survivors extra things to do and if they don't do them or if they do do them, they die.
Stop Everything!: Thano, Dying Light, Sloppy Butcher, Franklins. Crate of Gears+Bag of Gears (Oppressive snowball build....basically stops the game as soon as you get injuries and hooks rolling. People get injured, stay injured, and stay mad at the extensive time needed to take off a bear trap...or do anything really)
All My Friends Are Dead: Knockout, Infectious Fright, Deer Stalker, Hex Third Seal. Face Mask+Rusty Attachments (This is a slug build. Tag and down a survivor, move onto the next one, tag and down them. Keep tagging people, all survivors are then completely aura and hook blind, slug, hook, slug, then hook. Its a simple parlor trick, but brings enough chaos into a match to completely throw survivors off of their altruism game.)
I got tons more but don't feel like writing a book today...
Also one thing to note....there is no "Best way" to play pig. She's probably the most versatile if not one of the most versatile killers in the entire roster. You can be stealthy...or not. You can be brutish....or not. You can be tricky and trappy....or not. It all depends on what you want your style to be.

Thanks, these are exactly the sort of creative ideas I'm looking for. I'd certainly like to hear more of them at some point but I will give these a try. Loving the names too.

this one is more meta than anything for pig. id usually run ruin on last perk because if i chase someone off gen and put a hat, ruin will slow their progress while searching for a box when unhooked, also saves me time from kicking so i can immediately go for another chase. id change syringe for an extra hat, extra box, or the wall hacks iridescent when i feel like having fun with ambushes. other than that, syringe is still a solid pick.

Use Save the Best for Last on her it really is amazing and allows you to snowball when you have 8 stacks.
I can't play without it now. Otherwise I run Pop, BBQ (For BP) and Corrupt Intervention. Ruin Undying can work in a more slowdown based build, you could use Sloppy Butcher and addons that increase bear trap removal time and really make things out of control.

Devour Hope. This perk might not be the absolute best on her, but by the Entity it is so damn fun!
