We need justice for all of the bad Ultra Rare Addons killers have
So after the release of the Hillbilly & Leatherface reworks, they had their addons adjusted to actually be good or useful in some way. In particular with the Hillbilly, they fixed both of his ultra rare addons (which one was later swapped to be very rare with Apex muffler). Bubba's Ultra Rare addons were already showing some good results, which is why they were not really altered that much.
This type of treatment should be given to those killers with trash Ultra Rare addons (or trash addons in general tbh). Go back to some killers that have underwhelming powerful addons & change them to actually make them have more value. Killers I am more noteably talking about would be Demogorgon, Pyramid Head, Deathslinger, Nurse, Ghost Face, Oni, Pig, Plague, Legion (sorta?), etc. These killers have at least one useless Ultra Rare addon or one that should probably just be base kit for them. There are also some Ultra Rare addons that may need to be toned down on a bit, most noteably Iri Head hatchets for Huntress. Make Ultra Rare Addons Great Again!

Bubba's addons are both trash. They are both designed to work well when used together, to create insanely long chainsaw runs, but each on their own is just bad. And the combo requires Infectious Fright or is pretty useless most of the time.
When running each of them alone: The stack refill is maybe useful but normally after a down with a chainsaw, you have time to refill anyway, so this addon doesn't make much more value than the increased refill speed. I would say the number of scenes where you can down 2 survivors where you need 6 stacks and can't manage it within 3 already are pretty rare. The other addon pretty much just has drawbacks. All it does, is optimizing just a lil bit your timing to get maximum value out of each stack, but at the cost of each stack having less value. And everytime you just need 1 stack, you waste them all, having to wait longer for the refill. Not talking about the tantrum... The positive effect is literally just "you don't have to push M2 anymore. But the downsides are just huge.
Besides that, yeah there are some underwhelming ultra rares. But there are also some good and some OP. I would guess the changes to these will just happen during a killer rework/tweak. Which might be sad, because Iri Heads need to be addressed but Huntress doesn't. So let's see if we have to live with Iri Heads or if we see another killer change that isn't needed

Agreed. GF and Oni are part of my standard roster, I wish the ultra rares were better. I´m sure many people would love to see their main´s addons lifted up if needed.

ghostface only has 3 good addons and oni with his best addons is aids

I think Deathslinger really got the shortest end of the stick:
The branding iron is a knock-off of infectious fright without IF's possibility to still move around, and the coin... lbr... on how many maps can you actually successfully reel in a survivor from 15m? I tried with friends with various perk/add-on combos, and the moment you have any obstacle the survivor can even remote move behind, you're screwed.

The killers I find myself liking the most are Legion and Deathslinger. I'm just going to spitball some changes to their ultra rares (Legion's ultra rare button is skipped since I personally think it's fine. Pretty strong but not something that warps you into a god or something)
Fuming Mixtape: Honestly, I think the last thing most people would want to do is to use frenzy to get an idea of generator progress. It would probably be better if it was a speed increasing addon with some other effect slapped onto it. Would probably see more usable that way.
Iri Coin: 15 metres is too far to reasonably be able to hit and drag to. I honestly think it would be neater (though maybe a bit too powerful) if hits farther than 15 metres away simply damage the survivor one health state.
You already have to get a good line of fire and they have to be pretty far away.
Hellshire Iron: who on god's green earth would be able to see the auras with this addon. The addon this killer is attached to has a 24 metre terror radius AND your camera is locked to stare at the survivor while you got them hooked.
I'm not sure what you could really do with it, though. Maybe after you hit a survivor with your harpoon, any survivor within the harpoon'd survivor's area screams?

We not gonna talk about how bad Demogorgon's addons are? Not just his ultra rare ones but pretty much all of them. They are so worthless.

I say ur are fine. We're already compensated by the amount of moris we get in our bloodwebs.

Plague have two of the best Ultra-rares, the Black Incense is straight up broken and de Iridescent Seal is pretty good and can be powerful in a lot of builds. Agreed with everything else.

Pyramid Head: Seal of Metatron; A joke of an add on. Very situational just to get an aura read of tormented survivors. His obsidian goblet has more use than this.
Demogorgon: Leprose Lichen; Again a situational aura read of injured survivors. Also you are locked in position traversing the upside down so it’s not very useful.
Deathslinger: Hellshire iron; Aura read within your TR is useless, as you want to make his TR as small as possible. On top of the fact that you are reeling a survivor in so you’ll be locked into position.
Oni: Iri family crest; Infectious fright already does a better job, 12m is too small to get any use out of it.

Can you do me a favour though and not touch Matchbox on Nurse? That add-on is actually ######### hilarious to use and I always seem to do so much better as a 4.2 with 1 blink, than as a 3.8 with 2 blinks (for some reason??).
I've thought about how I'd change Pyramid Head's URs though, and here's what I thought of.
Obsidian Goblet: Punishment of the Damned now inflicts Torment.
Iridescent Seal of Metatron: Rescuing a survivor from a cage no longer removes Torment from the survivor who rescued.

Your justice is that survivors actually have no good ultra rare anything. XD
Brand New Part - nerfed twice (maybe 3 times? I forget)
Syringe - Nerfed, now useless
Odd bulb - Useless. Only works if you know the flashlight timing and even then, you can just use any add on for the same effect

You must remember that there are 4 survivors as opposed to one killer. All 4 survivors can bring ultra rares and killer's ultra rare should be on par with them. For example, consider brand new part. 4 people running it can finish an entire gen in a matter of moments.

I meant more that one of Plague's should be basekit. Same with Pig. Sorry I didnt make that clear lol.
