Does anyone have a good build for Pyramid Head?
I plan on buying him when he comes out; I just want to know if anyone has a decent build they want to share.

I was thinking about this build:
Infectious, Monitor, BBq/TT, then either pop, enduring or i'm all ears.
The thing is to down someone, and if you hear screams, send the downed survivor to the cage and start chasing that other survivor.
If you don't hear screams, then hook that person normally unless they are on final hook and you can mori them. Then using BBq/TT you can find other survivors.

Nurses Calling, I'm all Ears, Monitor and Abuse, Infectious Fright
I'm all Ears is just insanely good on him in general.
Nurses Calling can give you Free downs, especially in combination with M&A
Infectious Fright helps you snowball letting you make better use out of the time you get from caging Survivor.
Monitor acts as a Synergy tool for IF and NC, as well as just reducing the initial distance of most chases in general.

Dark devotion is going to be one of his best perks in the same way Stbfl is very good on demogorgon and deathslinger.
It's uniquely powerful on him.

Why would it be uniquely powerful on him?

I've seen others suggest Monitor, but I don't see the point. He's so tall. Much like Plague, Monitor would only be good in indoor maps, where height isn't much of an issue.
I do want to see how powerful I'm All Ears is on him, though.

I was thinking Third Seal might help hide his cages, but apparently blindness doesn't affect white auras.
If you hear a scream, wouldn't it be best to immediately do a shockwave in their direction before hooking? You might as well try to injure them as soon as possible and run them off, then once you hook BBQ will hopefully show you where they ran to. Does Pop even work with the cage? And wouldn't you want to try to land shockwaves rather than trying to lunge through pallets?

Most survivors would just run when they scream from infectious, so i don't think that would be effective.
If they're stuck in a deadzone, corner of the map or in a room though then it could work.

don't buy, you buy a bad killer with horrible perks, waste of money

STBFL is good because with your power you can control to not lose stacks. hit your obsession with the power. Also, quick hit recovery and a ranged blast to follow can end chases pretty quickly sometimes. And I agree with I'm All Ears, makes your power easier to hit, while the survivors can't see you aiming.
I'm a bit against Nurses because the ranged attack is only 8m, so even with Monitor you need to be too close for a surprise attack.
A good build could be Nemesis and Dark Devotion, to easily get your obsession into chase, down her with M1 and send her quickly across the map with your terror radius, while being undetectable for 30 seconds.
Meme might be Insidious hook camping.You hit through the walls, so they don't see you, BT won't trigger cuz lacking TR and both get hit if you time it correctly :P

For the STBFL, i think it'll be extremely hard to maintain your stacks since his range attack is worthless in close range unlike demogorgon's shed. Hell, even pig and deathslinger is better in that area

Of course it is not equally easy to handle, always depends on the killer. For Pyramid, you need to see if the obsession goes for the right loops where you can use it or decide if you want to lose stacks or find another target. But the potential is there, even if not OPish like on Demo

Good point, at least he has some way to prevent stack loss which some killers can't.

Yeah why would dark devotion be very good on him im curious.

I’m thinking Corrupt, I’m All Ears, Infectious, and Surge. A tracking perk, a chasing perk, and two slowdowns, none of which rely on him specifically hooking. Even though I very much feel like proper play of him will involve 50% or more of your hook states being from actual hooks, I don’t like the idea of needing to choose between a Pop or going after the guy with infectious. It’s more pressure overall to cage and be after the new target immediately.

Imagine you combine it with Nemesis and you down a tormented survivor with a basic attack. You can send them to the cage and cause insane chaos.

Not as common. It's not a reliable peek, but dark devotion got insane value if it works.

Thats a very good idea, torment the obsession m1 down them assuming they are 1 hit, and cage them with your TR, proceed to execute destruction.
