We have temporarily disabled Firecrackers and the Flashbang Perk due to a bug which could cause the Killer's game to crash. These will be re-enabled in an upcoming patch when the issue is resolved.

Make One Change For Each Killer To Balance Them

If you could make one change to each killer to better balanced them, what would they be? (Whether it’s decreasing or increasing their power or add ons.)

Here’s mine:

  1. Trapper- Traps that have been on the ground for a certain amount of time will be added to your trap count (unless you already have maximum capacity). Timer resets after each one.
  2. Wraith- Slightly faster while cloaked in base kit.
  3. Billy- Iridescent add ons that include, ‘Ability to continue chainsaw through dropped pallets without stoppage.’ (Love this idea. It’s not mine). And, ‘Ability to almost instantly recover from stun when crashing into objects.’
  4. Nurse- Rework ‘extra blink’ add ons into something different and make the ‘increased distance’ blinks add ons actually hurt your accuracy along with not making them stackable.
  5. Myers- No terror radius for the first 20 seconds in each tier.
  6. Hag- Regular lunge when teleporting.
  7. Doctor- Be able to almost immediately swing after shocking a survivor.
  8. Huntress- Iridescent Head add on now let’s you begin the trial with 2 hatchets. Slightly increases time to get hatchets and not stackable with belt add ons.
  9. Leatherface- Slightly faster during chainsaw rev.
  10. Freddy- BEING REWORKED.
  11. Pig- Ambush no longer alerts you before the fact and is slightly faster (both while crouched and ambushing).
  12. Clown- Slightly faster recover in between bottle throws.
  13. Spirit- Slightly increase power speed in base. Adjust add ons.
  14. Legion (I’m cheating here) - Tremendously increase power speed, power duration. 15 seconds to mend. Mending now fully heals survivor. Make franks mix tape base kit (3 hits to down). Miss while in feral frenzy depletion stays. Rework add ons. Survivor who loses a Legion or forces a legion to miss while in chase, gains endurance for 15 seconds. No scratch marks and blood in feral frenzy stays. Increased smear/disorientation during turns while in feral frenzy (Harder to see survivors while vaulting and in general essentially.)
  15. Plague- Has normal speed in vile .

EDIT: Title spelling mistake.

    Trapper's bag addons are base kit.

    Wraith moves and lunges faster in base kit.

    Billy has to rev his chainsaw longer.

    I'm too scared to touch Nurse.

    Myers base kit is stronger, but his addons are weaker.

    Hag has 115% movespeed.

    Doctor's hallucination doubles don't disappear if a survivor looks away.

    Huntress hatchet hitboxes are pixel perfect.

    Leatherface can rev his chainsaw faster (so maybe he can get someone before they can vault in a loop)

    Freddy can use his power to teleport to a vault, vaulting towards the way he came from (not my idea).

    Pig makes the roar noise after it's too late to react and the ambush is performed much quicker.

    Clown can behead Ash's puppet with his mori.

    Spirit's prayer beads are ultra rare or removed.

    Legion isn't punished as harshly for missing during frenzy, can vault quicker, and is faster in frenzy.

    Plague has a stronger base kit, weaker addons.

    1. Trapper- You can set up traps in each match in a private lobby. When you enter a public match in a map you set them, the traps spawn there set at the start.
    2. Wraith- 160% MS when cloaked as his base. Or 6.4 m/s.
    3. Billy- Nothing.
    4. Nurse- Remove extra bink addons, make range addons increase fatigue and make her slightly slower when blinking (330% from 333%).
    5. Myers- Multistalk readded, Unlimited range for stalking, moves faster when stalking (75% MS) and he has a speed of 4.5 m/s in EW1.
    6. Hag- Regular lunge when teleporting. I can't see that working. I'd just make flashlights only show her traps and NOT destroy them.
    7. Doctor- Shocking duration increased to 3 seconds (from 2.5) and he's got built in fake pallets.
    8. Huntress- Moves at 4.5 m/s (or 112.5%)
    9. Leatherface- Moves at the same speed as survivors while holding chainsaw, can use it forever and moves at 125% MS when using his saw (5 m/s)
    10. Freddy- BEING REWORKED.
    11. Pig- Her nerfs reverted, then she's top tier.
    12. Clown- Slightly faster recover in between bottle throws.
    13. Spirit- Nothing, we've been through this :P she's fine. Maybe a bit more passive phasing like once every 3 seconds (from 5)
    14. Legion (I’m cheating here) - Tremendously increase power speed, power duration. 15 seconds to mend. Mending now fully heals survivor. Make franks mix tape base kit (3 hits to down). Miss while in feral frenzy depletion stays. Rework add ons. Survivor who loses a Legion or forces a legion to miss while in chase, gains endurance for 15 seconds. No scratch marks and blood in feral frenzy stays. Increased smear/disorientation during turns while in feral frenzy (Harder to see survivors while vaulting and in general essentially.) Definitely not, that makes him a problem again. I'd make deep wounds 25 seconds, frenzy speed 130% (5.2 m/s)
    15. Plague- Has normal speed in vile.

    The Trapper - Can carry 2 traps at base. Can reset a close trap on the ground without picking it up.

    The Wraith - Not sure.

    The Hillbilly - Carburetor Tuning Guide, The Thompson's Mix, and Doom Engravings changed to a purple rarity. Speed Limiter changed to a white rarity. Death Engravings, Shop Lubricant, and Primer Bulb changed to a green rarity. Pink add-on 1 (Max's Custom Clutch) let's you break a pallet and continue chainsawing (I think you got this from me 😋). Pink add-on 2 (Iridescent Chain) inflicts Broken for 120s on survivors after doing chainsaw sprint for 3s, will instantly kill survivors that have been hooked twice after doing chainsaw sprint for 7s, and increases chainsaw charge time.

    The Nurse - Blink range add-ons do not stack and the blink accuracy decrease would actually mean something. Extra blink add-ons reworked to instead increase her base movement speed, which also do not stack. Pink add-on 1 (Sally's Last Breath) makes first blink completely silent and second blink silent outside of a certain range. Pink add-on 2 greatly reduces fatigue on blinks where you do not attack (less than a half second).

    The Huntress - She can get bloodlust 5s faster and bloodlust will remain for up to 5s after a chase has ended. Iridescent Hatchets inflict Deep Wounds with a 10 second timer and only reduce hatchet count by 3. Pink add-on (Ivory Haft) makes hatchets stick to surfaces where the Huntress can recollect to inventory (no animation, just touch them and they get put back). If it hits the floor or a survivor the hatchet is lost.

    The Shape - Fragrant Tuft Of Hair removes extra lunge and vault speed buff. Allow stalking of multiple survivors (I put this here after reading other people's posts, I don't play him so I didn't even know it wasn't a thing).

    The Hag - Add notification aura when survivor disarms a trap with a flashlight. Disfigured Ear increases trap durability against flashlights. Mint Rag removes the camera jerk effect when a survivor triggers a trap.

    The Cannibal - Not sure.

    The Doctor - Increase range of shock by like 10-15%. Madness 3 no longer prevents you from healing a downed survivor. Shocks/screams no longer prevent you from vaulting but instead force a slow vault. Pallet break/vaulting during treatment mode is faster than normal. Gains 5% speed boost for 2s after a survivor's Madness tiers up.

    The Nightmare - Not sure because rework. I would list a bunch of stuff otherwise but it would all be moot as it's based on his current form.

    The Pig - Using RBT during EGC will reset and pause the EGC timer, and the RBT will be active as it would before. Ruleset 2 makes RBT timer invisible to survivors along with it's current effect. Amanda's Secret reveals auras of survivors that just completed a box search for 5s (successful or not).

    The Clown - Bottles/gas will inflict damage to generators (as if kicking them). Change exhaustion add-ons to instead inflict repair debuff on survivors for X time based on rarity. Tattoo's Middle Finger shrinks killer's TR by 8m, and will remove red stain while the survivor's aura is revealed.

    The Spirit - Prayer Beads Bracelet make her footsteps audible during phase walk within 6m and increases cooldown timer by 3s.

    The Legion - Revert vault speed during Frenzy to what it was before update. Pins status effect time increased to 90s and the effect will be inflicted on injured or Deep Wounds survivors. Fuming Mixtape let's Legion see scratch marks during Frenzy. Frank's Mixtape makes it so that hitting a survivor with Deep Wounds during Frenzy refills the power bar by 50% instead of draining it completely (so that you can continue to chase/hit the same survivor with Frenzy as a way to keep Killer Instinct active).

    The Plague - Give her a fountain counter (X/Y where X is the number of corrupt fountains and Y is the total number of fountains). When fully sick/Broken, get rapid fire skill checks on generators and failed skill checks triple the regression penalty.

    The Pig - There will always be 6 Jigsaw Boxes (removes +box addons).

    The Hag - No change.

    The Spirit - Fix spatial audio. Prayer Beads* removed.

    The Plague - Disease spreads within 8 meters; progresses 15% faster baseline. Additional addons for increasing proximity and object spread/linger, and progression speeds for lower addon tiers.

    The Hillbilly - Cooldown on chainsaw sprint, base movement speed reduced.

    The Cannibal - Chainsaw no longer instant downs; continues cutting through pallets, and retains multi-hit function and speed bonus.

    The Huntress - Naturally searches lockers 20% faster.

    The Trapper - Traps now have a maximum distance in which they can spawn from the Trapper.

    OPs Trapper idea wouldn't be bad. You're usually fighting time tooth and nail with him and the spare traps you desperately need being all the way across the map where nobody is because the gens are completed sucks. If they ever add a secondary mori I'd like to see him slam somebody head first into a trap :) . Or maybe just put a trap on their head.. heh
