Padded Jaws rework idea

Right now this add-on is one of a reasons why I want a delete option for add-ons and offering that i will never use. Which will never happen, because?

And here the idea for Padded Jaws: Instead of increasing points, increase traps on the map, like double.

    and that is not even the worst one. Have you seen the one for Wraith? lmao even do I rarely use it it's more for getting more points in the deviousness category

    Padded jaws does pair well with STBFL but other than that it is pretty useless.

    It's supposed to be the equivalent to the normal damage Billy Saw and the TR Wraith addon. You play it for a large negative to your ability in exchange for points

    Though, tbh, you'd get far more points from just having an ability that does what it's supposed to because you'll actually get people killed. doesn't matter how much deviousness I get, there's a 8000 bp cap there that I can't pass to make up for the loss of kills.

    My suggested change for them would be to remove bloodpoint caps on deviousness in exchange for the power gimp. That way you can focus on stacking that

    Does paired with Honing Stone still downs them if they free themselfes or no?

    I... I've never thought to test that so I have no idea. If I can find anyone on PC willing to do an incredibly short KYF test with me I'll come back and tell you though

    With Milo's help we found that Padded Jaws and Honing stone do, in fact, work together. If they escape they go down, even with the padding.

    this add on is SUPPOSED to weaken your power, therefore give you a boost in the BPs earned. its the same for speed limiter or the wraiths "the beast" add on (i believe that is the one that activates the heartbeat?).

    honestly, this is by far the STRONGEST out of those add ons, simply because you can still oneshot survivors in traps by picking them up immediately.


    the add on works fine, it is not in the need of any changes.

    This is correct. The idea behind add-ons like these is to say, "This is going to be an easy match, I'm going to take an add-on that makes me weaker so it's closer and get some extra BP instead."

    e.g. You take a month or two off from killer and you're way below your normal rank.

    With 8k cap, there is no extra BP. But I understand your logic. The thing that I do not understand why I can't manage my inventory, why can't I remove the garbage?
