should the clown get buffed (as 2.7.0)

I'm playing clown a lot since yesterday i'm p3ing it. I'm 2 currently but i'm having some issues to win with him. i've tried without add-ons/perks to see how successful i am, i manage to put everyone on hooks(some get 2 hooks) but i never manage to kill anyone.

Reason : i find him weak do you think 1-2 more bottles and intoxicated/duration should get increased by 1-2s without add-ons.

Clown is suppose to counter/reduce loops but without purple add-ons his bottle are not that much powerful don't you think.

    Sadly many killers are extremally weak without addons...

    If you are good at huntress the exposed status effect from redhead's finger will help, also exhausted effect from what i know is very helpful... outside of this its classic m1 killer.

    so i'm not crazy he need a buff. It's sad he could be a powerful m1 killer. at least i understand why , we don't see him on Purple/Red ranks.

    @xllxENIGMAxllx I'm no clown main but I know what trick that might help you. Try throwing tonic at generators from far away. If survivors scream then you know to head towards that generator. If you don't hear screams then going over there is a waste of time and you know to stay away.

    The clown is moslty fine but I wish the Afterpiece Tonic stopped survivors from working the gens in the gas cloud. That would make trowing bottles on gens from far away much more appealing.

    If they need a buff they will nerf them. That is how it works.

    IMO, he does need a buff but I don't think the devs are going to buff him before I die lol

    All I need with Clown is to be able to tickle hooked survivors until they expire.
