Pinhead's Original Pain is a very busted addon since 6.1.0

This addon is very powerful (completely negates 10 second Endurance after unhooked and perks like Borrowed Time or Off the Record) when you are trying to tunnel 'right after' hooked person gets saved.

Which encourages very easy tunneling.

Sure, Pinhead should successfully shoot chains to survivor.

But whether the survivor breaks chain by himself, by using environment or Pinhead just walks into chain and break, this isn't important.

Survivor always get inflicted to Deep Wound status no matter how.


I have no idea why you didn't rework this addon when you decided to make Endurance do not work with Deep Wound.

To me, the effect is almost an Iridescent addon without any penalty at all.

I also know this addon makes Dead Hard completely useless but the main issue of Original Pain is straight tunnel problem.

Please reconsider and change this addon unless you make basekit Endurance work like Mettle of Man (no Deep Wound).

    I have literally never seen anyone run this. If you're really hellbent on tunneling you can do it without waiting around the hook, hitting someone with a chain and waiting for them to break out of it.

  • I personally love running this addon on Pinhead because of the extra slowdown+canceling out Dead Hard/styptic/OTR, but yeah, you can definitely use it to tunnel someone disgustingly easily. That said, I don't think it's outrageously broken in that regard, especially considering how few Pinheads even run it.
