Bubba's best add-ons are The Greaser and Primer Bulb

Ok so in the PTB I thought this add-ons were useless. But on the live servers, I think they were fixed, because they are so good. You can use the Tantrum in so many creative ways now because of the decent speed this add-ons give you. This 2 add-on toghether make your Tantrum 60% instead of 11%. This means that if a usual Tantrum lasts for 5s+ you'll traverse 12 metres with these add-ons instead of only 2 metres using nothing.

These add-ons can come in handy so many times, where you down a survivor that had just vaulted a window, and instead of waiting 5 s to finish the Tantrum, you can just walk at a 2.4m/s and cross the window much faster.

Pretty much all Bubba's add-ons affect the charges and the chainsaw's sweep which are already in a good spot, but this 2 add-ons make your weakness not so punishing, that's why I love these 2 add-ons and I am sure they are the best imo. Discuss.

    I don't think so. I think it's either the chili + depth gauge rake, or Iri flesh or some combination of those three.

    Adding a 4th charge, making the charges last longer, or reseting charges on a down allows for some borderline brokenly long chainsaw sweeps.

    All you have to do is slap on bamboozle + enduring and bubba is probably the easiest to play character in the game currently. Hold W, push M2, bamboozle jungle gym windows, run through every pallet and that's all it takes to be a great bubba.

    The add-on that makes people broken and the faster charge refill add-ons are honorable mentions. I heard the beast mark's only adds 3% extra speed so that's not worth using.

    i think theyve changed them now have they not? so its not affecting tantrum movement speed anymore.

    Tbh it was kind of useless, as you could essentially only benefit from it if you messed up or got clutch hit through a window - quite specific

    Now it affects only the Tantrum. On the PTB these add-ons worked only if you intentionally entered a Tantrum by holding the M2 button too much. I think you underestimate the time these add-ons save you. It's alot. And you can trick survivors using the Tantrum 'cuz they dont expect you to have such a speed.

    And doesn't it feel more smooth to play? Personally I like it 'cuz you can always go for window hits with the chainsaw, and even if you miss, the drawback isn't that bad. And the funniest thing is that survivor don't expect you to run these add-ons and be so fast during the Tantrum so I definitely think these add-ons are worth running.

    i never got to play the PTB but it doesnt sound great. I guess i can't really judge tho as i didnt play it. the new addons seem decent at least

    I was skeptical at first too.

    I managed to find a video of Otzdarva using these add-ons (of course he used it under normal conditions, he didn't try using the Tantrum in a creative way because he didn't know the speed this add-ons give you)

    time stamps: 1:07:36 & 1:09:00. What do you think?

    Firstly, cheers for going out of your way to find a stream and timestamps with given examples, much appreciated.

    From looking at it, i would say at certain loops (like the killer shack in the video) it helps save a bit of time, which obviously would add up to a decent amount of saved time over the whole match. However, for certain loops its probably still quicker to just wait out the tantrum and climb through the window. Plus it seems quite niche in regards to downing an additional survivor like this, either youve already knocked them down and theres no-one else around or your not catching up if youve bumped into something mid chase (though i guess it helps catch up a bit if your still going after them).

    It does seem to save a decent amount of time but i wonder if the new primer bulb would save a bit more time as it now refreshes charges quicker, though i feel the charges refreshed fine without it so then again maybe not. Either way its definitely better than i expected, and tbh it mightve been nice to see at least 1 of these addons stay.

    The new grease pairs nicely with the light chasis addon so the new addons definitely have their uses. Shame they didnt keep at least 1 variation of the tantrum movement speed around though.

    I wouldn't say they are his best add-ons, but I agree, it's a fun combo! Almost downed someone with them. Glad they have some usefulness.
