"Creature From the Black Lagoon" Hag

Man, so for like the passed week I've been playing a variety of "The Creature" builds instead of The Hag builds, and I been having a blast doing it and I'd just like to hope the Survivors have been having a good time with it also.

So the one I been using most is

Waterlogged Shoe, Willow Wreath

Call of Brine, Dragon's Grip, Superior Anatomy, Agitation

So I'm using Waterlogged Show to play just basically a regular M1 killer who can using their traps more like Trapper to slow the Survivors down and M1 them, as a Swamp Monster would right? And then, I'm using Agitation to actually move the downed survivor to a different area of the map, preferably one in which I already have some traps placed, or near a generator that someone is working on. Once I have found a good place, preferably it's a gen which they were working on, now what I can do is hook the survivor, kick the gen applying Call of Brine and Dragon's Grip to it, and then go wander around and place traps until either the place is defended well enough for me to leave, or someone is silly enough to either unhook, or try to tap the gen. Should they tap the gen, even better because now they 100% can't even trade for the hook and now I'm in another chase, one in which they are hopefully running into some traps. Should the survivors trip a trap and I'm not able to sufficiently make use of the hindered, then I can at least use the aura reading to know where they are and what they are up to. Should they try to run around and pop all my traps, I can make use of this information also so it isn't a complete waste of my time.

Superior Anatomy is there obviously for chase, because I'm a Swamp Monster.

Another one I was having a ton of fun with was

Granma's heart, Cracked Turtle Egg

Dark Devotion, Fearmonger, Furtive Chase, I'm All Ears

So we are gonna use Furtive Chase and Dark Devotion to spread around our Terror Radius, and work more as a stealthy killer. Fear Monger will work against them if they try to finish gens, and I'm All Ears will alert me to where they are, and how I can sneak up on them.

The best part though, is the Dark Devotion, Granma's Heart combo. If Dark Devotion is active, and they trigger a trap, the Terror Radius shrinks to 0, and the Mud Phantasm's Terror Radius increases by 16 meters. Now I don't know what it is base, it might be 0, I'm betting if its anything its 8, but with this the TR from DD shrinks to 0, doesn't leave, just shrinks to 0, the phantasms TR grows by 16 to at least 16, until it vanishes, in which that effect goes away, the TR is still on the survivor and returns to the 32 that dark devotion set it to, which is more than the 24 that I normally have.

Freakin' Terror Radius is everywhere. They don't even know what to make of it. I have the Cracked Turtle Egg in there, but you could swap that for something else.

    Creative ! I'll have to try out those, though I don't have all the perks unlocked :)

    The thing I like about Hag's addons - you can create a completely different killer, completely different gameplay.=)

    1. Be a usual M1 (4.5ms) killer with ability to slow down survivors with traps at more radius... (Shoe and Mud)
    2. "Bodyblocking" Hag, preventing survivors completely to use windows and pallets at the loops in a chase... (Hand and Egg)
    3. Be a stealthy killer with right perks at the right moments... (Granma's heart and Shackles)
    4. Pretend to be a Sadako or Dredge by teleporting to a places ahead of survivors... (Rag and Shackles)

    it can be much more fun for both Hag and survivors, and if you having a blast with such builds, please keep doing that.=)

    I personally using Dried Cicada and Willow Wreath most of the times, placing "Camera flick" traps at the loops and windows, this is a fun to me, to see how survivors tripping to use that windows or pallets, or getting completely missguided and even disoriented in a different direction because of this 1 trap. xD

    Hag can be played in a many different ways, so good luck and have fun finding your best and favorite one.=)
