red add ons

why are some of the red add ons on new killers useless or need a build in order to work. are they scared of making a op add ons? just do it and if its to op rework or remove it like deathslinger red add ons are not his best depending on how you play him his reload add ons are some of the best add ons because you always need to reload and these add ons are green and gray same with pyramid head his add ons are not that great either can we make them great again?

    Problem is you have stuff like huntress that I hear everyone complain about and maybe they just don’t want another thing on their plate to fix later. I feel like they should make them really good again because they added variety and at times changed what their ability did entirely or have different uses. Stuff like deathslinger makes me sad because there’s so little reason to run it because despite the one shot the possibility hitting that far of a shot let alone reeling them in to get a hit even if you do manage to hit it is so small. At least half the distance so maybe it’s not 24/7 one shot like huntress but not to the point that you spend a good amount of blood points on a red item only for it to sometimes never make a difference or even use in the match.

    I mean I personally don’t care if they do or not since its not really a problem in my opinion however I do see where people are coming from so I just don’t see why they make it something like hag where it says you are reduced to one hatchet “trumps all other addons” so there’s no increase in belt size. On that note of agreement though stuff like deathslinger’s one shot requiring a large amount of distance and Demo’s “stealth” build despite the screaming and loud footsteps are quite lackluster/unfortunate because despite their rarity they are usually a hinderance rather than giving you an edge like making demo completely silent as a part of that addon SHOULD be an easy fix.

    I think red add-ons should be op, with the caveat being that they're extremely rare to the point of being only ever-so-slightly more common than Ebony Mori.

    The ultra rare addons have been pretty garbage for a while now.

    I love instant down Iridescents with no downsides as long as they aren't overbearing. Huntress should only have 1 no matter what since she can butt ride you for an instant down but if you do manage to dodge it, make her reload. Clowns insta-down was fine also but you shouldn't get the extra hinder effect with it when hit directly. Just the normal slowdown.

    For those who don't know, I direct hit slows you down even more. Since he already has other hinder add-ons, combining that with a hinder add-on plus the direct hit hinder makes you almost stop in place. Its not the insta down that bothers me about Huntress or on other killers. Its the fact that Huntress can use 3 to repeatedly chuck them at you. Most butt ride you for that down.

    Gunslingers version is terrible. 9-10 meters would be fine but 15 meters with his max range is 18 meters is just worthless. All killers who don't have an insta down should have an iridescent version. Hags shoes that give her normal movement speed but can't port is horrible. It restricts her just so you can use her full body add-on that normally isn't used. Remove the effect where you can't port with the shoes and I'd be fine with it.

    Some characters if they have ranged attacks should be careful with insta-downs since they're ranged. No one likes being sniped over a barrel for an insta-down due to it be too easy.

    Note: Had spelling mistakes.
