I've learnt the fun way to deal with 4-man SWF's

Haven't played this game for a long time, only last few months, people always complained about SWF but I've personally never noticed too much. However with all the attention brought to it that I see here on the forums, I've noticed when it happens now and I make good fun when I see 4-man SWF join my lobby. Now I just save my ultra-rare add-ons for a 4-man group and have my fun, making them regret ever 4-man'ing up in my lobby. Nothing more satisfying then using iridesescent heads with 3 hatchets on huntress and making them suffer, ehe. And if you really want to make it hell and overkill it with a short game, bring a pink mori with it too. I mean, that's a bit extreme even for my taste, but if you're feeling super cruel, go for it XD. Huntress is just my favourite one to use, but using other awesome UR add-ons for other killers in 4-man situations is also fun :D

    You were using one of the few killers who can handle coordinated groups efficiently while the rest of us have to use subpar killers like the trapper. Not everyone wants to or can play the huntress. I cant. For some reason i am not able to "hide" the song telling them from which direction i am approaching. I have never done well with the huntress. I am ok throwing hatches and chases but the initial finding of the survs is hard for me. Even using detection perks. The song gives pretty much gives her exact location away.

    I do better with billy but he is about to get a pretty big nerf with the impending changes to tinkerer that slow down chainsaw windup.

    Was just 1 example, there's other killers with good UR add-ons, such as freddy, doctor, trapper. shape. And I've had many SWF groups in my lobby's, they're not always a big thing to worry about, only sometimes if they're taking something like 2BNP's or 2 VR flashlights. but other than that, most of the tiem it's not too bad. The saving UR add-ons for them was just something i started doing liek a week ago, but i've only had 1 4man group since then.

    You know I’ve been thinking of doing this but I also need the load out to deal with the super altruistic SWF

    If ultra rare addons would actually compensate the SWF factor, sure.
    Sadly this is not the case and in your case, the iri hatchets only work against bad survivors.

    Since you need to hook for a mori, that doesnt really work out as good anymore either. There simply are too many crutches and lightsabres in the game to prevent hooks

    Only work against bad survivors...? This is rank 1-2 I'm talking about.

    Rank is no indication for that (sadly, luckily?)
