Look at these addons and tell me these are not useless

avscwqhbon951.jpg

Ton's of undetectable addon's on a killer with a global sound.

Horrible meme addons

Only charge addon has a horrible drawback

Only good set reduces the effect of the nerf

Yep nurse "addon rework" 2.0

    The silent chainsaw sounds like it'd be good with monitor for ninja billy action but that's about it. Bloody interesting addon that one though. Got it with brick and your a no terror no saw missile.

    yeah, they really don't know how to create add-ons.

    The problem with Brick is 5 seconds is alot of distance covered by Billy. You're basically talking about crossing the map to get it to work and hoping theres no obstacles inbetween in which youd have to stop.

    Thank you for posting this, saves me time from downloading the PTB and looking for myself.

    He's done. Terrible, terrible addon rework.

    this is why there shouldnt have to be a set amount of add ons for a killer, there should just be enough useful add ons, because its obvious that the devs are running out of ideas with add ons

    id rather have like 12 decently helpful add ons than 18 useless add ons.

    Apex Muffler text: Make the terror radius addons actually do something

  • NuclearBurrito
    NuclearBurrito Member Posts: 6,807

    Also doom engravings/death engravings are both unchanged and thus are still good.

    The steering addons are ok I guess but eh.

    The terror radius stuff needs Apex muffler to work.

    Everything else is #########

    OMG so many of these add-ons are awful. For example, the Buckle is insultingly awful.

    No the engravings increase charge time and with the new overheat it becomes useless

  • bingbongboi90

    To be fair i like the Idea of giving killers add-ons based of their perks. It is way more flavorfull and better then having 50% of their add-ons: when you downed a survivor with the chainsaw apply the exhaustion effect for 90 seconds or hemorrhage.

    The add-ons arent that good but still better then giving these ######### status effect.

    Increases movement speed by 0.2 m/s when a flashlight is shining on you. (what?) Rare

    Gain undetectable when sprinting over 5s (again, what? who even sprints over 5s) Ultra-Rare

    Chainsaw is silent for survivors outside terror radius................. Very Rare

    Increases resistance to blindness for 10s after being stunned by a pallet (WHAT??????) Rare

    Terror radius -8m when chainsaw overheating..............

    Decreases charge time, 110% speed for the whole match Very Rare


    No, there has to be a mistake.

    Where's the "Chainsaw hits inflicts the hemorrhage effect for 60s"?

    It's demo all over again. We should just get rid of addons entirely at this point. Give a killer 5 "Augments" that change their power in a decently substantial way and scale with rank. That way we also lose this whole finite advantage BS that makes trials even more inconsistent then they already are. We could even apply this to survs to make it more consistent for them too.

    its bhvr´s way to tell you stop playing killer; we are working on bots. but thanks for you money tho, no hard feelings

    Holy crap, I thought they would nerf Carb Tuning Guide, not completely remove it!

    Now the only way to reduce charge time is to become a 110% killer! What a joke of a PTB.

    Hey, gotta sell those sick af survivor cosmetics and sets to all the rank 15-20, facebook gamers right? Gotta keep those cash-cows happy and coming back for more; give them a positive experience where they win and don't get frustrated. Killers? nah..eff them, put their skill ceiling closer to God and have them know and master every mechanics the game has whereas survivors are all like "me press M1 on techbox so pretty light comes out lul"

  • LordGlint

    Exhaustion from a chainsaw would be pointless since your likely to hook the person after downing them and exhaustion goes away instantly after being unhooked.

  • JoeyBob

    It's okay, before the Billy change the devs said they were perfectly happy where he was at. But balance killers aren't what they want since survivors need an advantage.

    Doesn't bother me at all. I always hated going against Billy. I'm glad he got nerfed.

  • bingbongboi90
    bingbongboi90 Member Posts: 612

    That's what I said, that were a lot of the add-ons of bubba and billy before the add-ons rework.

  • Keezo

    His addons are the one thing wrong with him currently though, unless you think instasaw is fun & interactive to play against. Yes he didnt NEED the basekit nerf on top of it, but it doesnt do much to how he plays, back-revving can still be done by just waiting like 2-3s after catching up and he's always been great without addons, just not able to be an omnipotent force of nature.

  • ClickyClicky
    ClickyClicky Member Posts: 3,536

    Just remember, all the killer mains here swore over and over again that Billy was balanced due to the basekit timings of his chainsaw.....even though nobody used Basekit Billy. Now they’re upset that his add ons dont affect the charge time, cooldown or curves of his chainsaw anymore.

    Proves how disingenuous they were being and how they really played Billy.

    If basekit Billy was “the most balanced killer” then what’s the issue with the new add ons?

  • Customapple0

    So what you guys want another iridescent add on that’s like Iri heads? I like the new add ons in terms of balance.

    Stacking OP addons on a killer shouldn’t mean you get easy 4K. these add ons more compliment the killer’s power rather than make it downright OP.

    Heavy Clutch, Bug buckle & Mother’s helpers are useless. The rest however have use, no matter how small.

  • LordGlint
    LordGlint Member Posts: 9,781

    If theyre gonna make useless addons, they should at LEAST make em fun. Maybe have an addon that replaces the yell Billy now does with the battlecry from Xena Warrior Princess.

  • theArashi
    theArashi Member Posts: 998

    Devs did. In the noted they wrote that they are happy about billies performance and decided to rework his addons to make them less impactful.

  • LordGlint
    LordGlint Member Posts: 9,781

    Just imagine it from the survivor perspective. You load in, not sure who the killer is yet so you feel kinda anxious and then...in the distance you hear...
