Full Add-on Pass Imminent?
Basically the title! I'm sure we're not getting a FULL add-on pass for all killers since that's years of work, but is it safe to assume the add-ons that aren't getting changed are at least being worked on?

It is a pass on some of the underpowered, overpowered or unused add-ons for a lot of killers, a full add-on pass is not happening right now. Whether or not they will happen in the future, I cannot answer for certain, but right now it's only for specific add-ons and not all, as it'd be squeezing years worth of add-on passes in one update otherwise.

Sooo basically all of Freddy's and Pyramid Head's add ons?

Probably not. Most killers dont need all or a majority of their addons changed except like Billy and GF really.

would you say trapper and spirit are getting full add on passes?

I understand this, as it was said above in the initial post. What I'm asking is that now that many of the add-ons have been looked over briefly, are the ones that aren't being changed at least being looked at or considered for changes? Is it at least visible that many of the current add-ons for killers are a tad underused and is there a possibility of them being changed? In summation...
Is there a chance?

From the developers update it specifies for Trapper and Spirit some add-ons.
Unfortunately, that's something I cannot confirm in any way; right now, some killers are getting some of their add-ons adjusted based on the reasons mentioned above, which is different from the usual way. This allows for multiple add-ons on multiple killers to be adjusted than just one killer, as it is an incredible amount of work which can take a long while.

Pyramid Head has, like, 90% awful add-ons. Sadly he wasn't listed as one if the killers for this pass

Really I feel only the killer instinct and some of the purples are useless.

Iridescents
Goblet - Makes you Undetectable when standing on a trail. Awful for what should be blatantly obvious reasons. You shouldn't be standing still. If you want to do that, play Insidious Bubba.
Seal of Mettatron - When sending a Survivor to a cage, see the auras of all Tormented survivors for 6 seconds. Niche at best. The best thing about it is letting you see where the cage goes for but a brief moment. The issue is that usually when you torment someone, you're usually in chase with them and then downing and caging immediately. It also suffers from the downside that Tormented Survivors will seek out the Cage because uncaging someone removes Torment.
Purples
Crimson Ceremony Book - Tormented Survivors suffer from Hemorrhage status effect. There's already a big trail of barbed wires on Tormented Survivors so not really worth.
Lost Memories Book - Survivors affected by Rites of Judgement suffer from Oblivious for 15 seconds. Any Survivor effected by trails is usually either already being chased or too far away for those 15 seconds to really matter.
Rust Egg - Survivors affected by Rites of Judgement suffer from Blindness for 60 seconds. Also niche for similar reasons - if they're effected by trails they're usually being chased by you. This perk is sometimes helpful for making sure one or, if you're lucky, two survivors can't see where you hook someone until things get dangerous for them, but usually the unaffected teammates can make the save regardless.
Scarlet Egg - Increases Killer Instinct duration. You already said it sucks and it does.
Greens
Burning Man Painting - Considerably increases Punishment of the Damned (the ranged attack). One of his best ones.
Misty Day, Remains of Judgement - Another ######### Killer Instinct add-on.
Tablet of the Oppressor - Considerably increases Rites of Judgement usage. This one's actually not so bad and I like using it when I feel like I'm missing too many shots.
Valtiel Sect Photograph - Considerably reduces recharge time of Rites of Judgement. This one's just okay. Don't really need it if you manage your Rites well.
Yellows
Cinderella Box - Moderately increases times trails stay in the environment. Can be useful but typically niche.
Forgotten Tape - Moderately reduces recharge time. Again, just okay.
Leopard-Print Fabric - Killer Instinct. Ass.
Spearhead - Duration increase. Again, it's okay.
Wax Doll - Moderate Punishment increase. Still pretty good.
And all the browns except Black Strap are pretty weak.
4 "just okay" addons, 2 good addons and the rest are all garbage. Pyramid Head could use a look at his addons. And his perks for that matter.

I would say Seal is a lot better than niche if you keep people tormented a lot it can replace BBQ in most builds. Goblet IIRC you can sitll move as long as you are walking in trails but Im not 100% certain I dont play much PH and rarely use iri addons. A lot of his other addons like recharge and duration arent good but they arent bad. Like they are just nice to have equiped. I do agree all of his purples are ######### but I dont think he needs a full addon overhaul for just his ######### purples and killer instince.

Imo the problem is that the add-on encourages spreading Torment around when usually it's ideal to be Tormenting and Caging one as you chase each Survivor. I play a lot of Pyramid Head and while getting multiple Torments can be nice, you're more often than not getting a Torment and then caging soon after. I can't see times where Seal is regularly relevant, much less as transformative as many of the other add-ons, much less other iris, offer.

I just want add ons that reduce his power cooldown and extend range the other can be burnt in silent hill.
0 -
I'd agrue that PH's two range add ons for Punishment of the Damned are absolute must haves in all of his builds
0 -
yea they're really the only ones worth using with him

Many add-ons, especially the ones people are wanting nerfed, are alright as is. It's the ones that never see play, either because they're not as strong as others or because their design is nonsensical, that we need to pass.
