Nerfing bubba's and clown's (pinky finger) camping ability?
How would nerfing bubba and clown's pinky finger camping ability look like? I've thought of some - maybe make it so that bubba can't 1 hit down with his chainsaw when he's around the hooked for more than 30s, but for clown, i don't know. Thoughts?

It doesn't need nerfing, the other survivors just need to punish the killer by doing gens so the game is over. Is it fun? No. But anything you add to the game to make camping less effective will just make swf even stronger. People asked for slower hook progress if the killer was close to the hook, but they made that into a perk instead because it could be easily abused otherwise.

what about myers/ghostface/deathslinger with instadown addon/trickster holding 95% main event/iri huntress/hag

The problem is that we would need a solution that can not be abused by survivors. In my opinion the best solution would be a better incentive for the Killer to move away from the hook and hunt another survivor. Sure in some situations camping is fine and must be done (exit is open, you hooked the guy and know that they will come / you hang the survivor in the middle of your 3 gen as Trapper etc.) and should not be punished.
Now how can you increase the appeal of leaving the hook, aside from Hex: Devour Hope?
How about a Perk that slows down repair speed while somebody is on the hook but not within a radius of 32-40 meters?

barbecue/devour hope are pretty much all there is perk-wise
i don't think the perk would see much use because its best use case would be proxycamping the person on the hook and having people try to genrush instead of saving but the usual thing to expect would be a save within 15 seconds as soon as you're outside radius so it'd hardly get much value

I like this idea! Maybe make it use tokens to incentivize going for other survivors too. Something like max 8 tokens, 5% slower repair speed per token. With the hook distance requirement it feels different enough from dying light and thanatophobia while also not being too oppressive since it's not constant slow downs.

Make killers AI and remove the option to play them!

While I would like a pinky finger rework camping Bubba is fine tbh

Take away Bubba's chainsaw and Clown's bottles, and if they ever hit a Survivor during the match police are dispatched to the Killer's address, they will then be held in confinement until a court date 2 years later that deems them guilty.
