Why my beloved Amanda Oinky needs a buff...

God damn it. I am gotta start right off because I opened a thread long ago and really please buff Piggy. She NEEDS a buff. Combat Straps and Rule NO.2 built in would be enough for myself. But the thing is every Piggy Main on the forum says she needs something but it needs to be buffed. She is weak at Rank 10 and above. Why? Because you need to mind game more than hunting your survivor because without combat straps she needs to long to crouch (which is like the only Ability which is good on her (helmets sucks still oof). So why those helmets suck? Time is too long to pop, Boxes are highlighted, the Skill checks are not difficult etc. I could add a lot why's. So please Devs add something for my beloved Piggy Amanda (I really love her) in Patch 2.4.0 or Mid Season Patch. Oink Oink.

    The helmets aren't meant to get kills unless the survivor doesn't actively attempt to remove them. They're supposed to slow the game down by forcing the survivor to not work on gens even after they've been unhooked, so you can exert more pressure. If you have one trapped and youre chasing someone thats two people not working gens. If you have one trapped one hooked and one chased then no one will be working on gens.

    However, I think the sound should be removed from her crouch so she only makes it after she starts the dash and that her base crouch time should be like it is with combat straps.

    They can definitely do so if used right. I've played games where the Pig used the decreased timer addons, and if you didn't do a beeline from puzzlebox to puzzlebox, you were dead.

    Exactly, the survivor HAS to go box to box and ignore everything else. That survivor is doing nothing for the entire time the trap is on their head.

    I'd like to see:

    Rule Set#2 base kit
    Higher Crouch viewpoint
    No sound on ambush
    Survivors don't see RBT timer, killer does
    Combat Straps on base

    I would be fine with most of these. Though the higher crouch viewpoint seems like it could be weird if the camera is above where her eyes actually are. Unless you are suggesting that she doesn't crouch as low to the ground?

    I don't agree about the reverse bear trap timer though. The survivors absolutely should have this information.

    Her current viewpoint in crouch is at her knees, I just want it higher to match her actually face.

    I was thinking that timer change because then the survivors will have to tell how close it is based on how fast the beeping on it speeds up as it get closer. It doesn't reduce the time, just as some fear factor. Maybe don't let the killer see it either.

    My small idea could be added to this. 
    1 jigsaw box will always be found in the basement in the opposite chest spawn. You know, force the survivors to go down there.
