I gave Pyramid Head a Add On Pass in hopes that BHVR does soon

MasterTater · May 2022

I love Pyramid Head but his add ons are so lack luster and boring so i thought i would try to give him a pass. The switching around of some of the names is mostly because having 4 green pages, 2 purple eggs and 2 purple books made bloodwebs harder to take in at a glance at least for me personally.

Please comment any feedback you have on the add ons, i hope he gets the love he deserves soon.

Swap the effects of Spearhead with the effects of Rust colored egg and I'd say this is a pretty good rework.

The only addons I use are the range addons & I think they're probably some of the most useful non purple/Iridescent addons out of all killers currently in the game. You can get some insane snipes even with just 1.5m range increase. Stack that to 2m or 2.5m & you have some insane range. All the other addons are pretty poor though & I really don't see why I would take any of them over the range addons.

Sure Lets see:

Dead Butterfly: I see you kept an addon for recharge time, i think the basic recharge time is completly fine and doesnt need to be addressed at all in his addons. I think all of the current onces are unnoticeable and have to be removed.

Lead Ring, Copper Ring, Mannequin Foot: Increasement of the Lifetime of the trails, barely noticeable and very unlikely to get value from them from my experience plus the trails often get avoided by crouching aslong as the survivors dont get pressured into them. I think if we have one decent addon regarding this topic its enough. It would become more interesting if we would have another addon that buffs the trails.

Black Strap: Blindness is probably the most useless status effect in this game, so i think to make such an effect interesting it has to be paired with something else. To weak in any form to stand alone.

Wax Doll, Forgotten Video Tape, Crimson Ceremony Book: Power Duration Increasement are decent, but again i dont think we need 3 of them since its pretty situational. For me its quite rare that i ran out of power and if then only about 1 sec. Allover i think if you ran out of power then you played the situation wrong and its good that you get a penality therefore with the closing animation. One would be fine but definetly not needed.

Spearhead: Broken for an uncaged survivor. I think thats a bit to much. I think the idea behind that is to make caging more interesting which is definetly a big topic which needs to be addressed in an addon pass but its important to not buff his tunnel potential as it is already quite high. Good Idea needs a different execution.

Leopard-Print Fabric: Killer Instinct Duration is noticeable but its nearly always useless, the only thing it might do is to motivate you to go for a risky blindshot. This Effect should be completly removed from the addons. Another idea regarding this topic would be to replace Killer Instinct with Aura Reading.

Cinderella Music Box: Ive read this suggestion in multiple fan addon reworks but personally i think its not that helpful because of the speed boost survivor get after a hit, it motivates them to hold w and run away which means they are usually very easy to find and follow in that moment and you are usually not in range for a second shot within 5 seconds anyway.

Valitel Sect Photograph, Tablet of the Oppressor, Misty Days, Remain of Judgement, Burning Man Painting: Range Addons are the only things which should stay, i think they should be atleast +1m and they shouldnt stack above +3m. 1m is from my experience noticeable and 2,5m is everything you need really i could accept 3m but its get hilarious at one point if we stack them endlessly. Also i dont think to reduce the power duration as a downside is a good idea, the 5s are basically a charge up which allows you to find the right angle and moment for your attack. With 2.5s you would have to shoot nearly instantly quite a heavy nerf and doesnt really brings up gameplay quality.

Scarlett Egg: To make the Executioner stealthy actually requires quite some work. Undetectable with Channeling buffs the current effect of the goblet to smth which actually works during a normal game, yet its still quite of a gimmicky effect since hes so big and noisy that he cant approach unnoticed. Allover it would be a meme addon in this form and be to weak for a purple.

Rust Colored Egg: Mangled and haemorrhage for the uncaged person, again the thought to buff his cages is good but you open up tunnel potential with leaving the rescued person for an increased time injured beside that these effects will be close to unnoticeable in the boon era, they will be healed before you get across the map and the slowdown is minor.

Lost Memories Book: Tormented Survivor cannot see the aura of the Cage. I had a somewhat similar idea but we have two problems here. Tormenting Multiple People is quite hard vs good players and Random SoloQ Teammates. If some players are not able to see the aura of an cage at all they might just wont rescue. I think to slow down the rescue phase is an creative and good idea but it would require a different execution.

Obsidian Goblet: Aura Revealing while Channeling - Perfect effect for him and this addon tier. The Power duration as downside here again would end up in a quick shot and potential more careless spamming of his attack i dont think it adds up to an qualitive gameplay and i would rather want to see a different downside.

Seal of Metatron: Most suggestion regarding this addon are in the direction to give him a chance to create momentum. This effect would work, it opens up snowballpotential. Personally i think there are maybe more exciting variants but i could live with it.
