Hag Trap Suggestion

I've been learning hag after not touching her since release. It would be nice if we could get a different audio notification for traps being triggered. I was running tinkerer and realized I was mixing the two up was a big oof. Even a small screen edge blink would be nice.

    I came across this problem too when I was learning Miss Haggy.

    To be honest, hag is so slow you probably wouldn't get there in time anyway.

    Surveillance is a much better perk on hag. You could always use bitter murmur or bbq as well.

    yea my issue atm is just the bp grind to get decent perks for her. Was mostly just picking from what I had available x.x

    BBQ and chilli is amazing on Hag. Not so much for survivor auras but for the points. Keep at it with her though, shes a beast!

    As someone who mains Hag smart choice for you to main her. And normally you'll hear a phantasm if it's your trap. Tell me if you need more tips.

    Addon usage for her would be useful not really sure what's the best ones to run for your average game.

    Average addons would be:

    Half Eggshell (Increases the duration that your phantasms stay up/time you have to teleport to triggered traps).

    Dragonfly Wings (Increases the distance you can teleport to traps, allowing a wider web).

    If you want to go hard and all out, it'll be Rusty Shackles & Dried Cicada.


    Please don't ever use Bog Water/Bloodied Water/Bloodied Mud, these addons increase the actual radius of your trap's trigger ring, this is a disadvantage because your hag appears in the middle of this ring, so when survivors step on the edge of your traps and you teleport to them, the distance you have to lunge to reach the survivor is far further and you will likely miss.

    Looking for the visuals helps; the top right will say 'trap triggered,' I usually have to glance at that every time I hear a fast vault just to check.

    It would be a nice quality of life change, but I don't know if she'd need one. She's already pretty strong.

    Hag really doesn't need perks, as a hag main I run with Third Seal and Franklin's for the lulz, BBQ for the BP, and the only really useful perk I use on her is Monitor.

    Tracking isn't really necessary for her so I don't really get value from BBQ, if nobody brings items I "wasted a slot" on Franklin's, and if they find my totem right away I "wasted a slot" on 3rd Seal.

    For add-ons I run setting speed and distance add-ons. Playing on PC with a controller makes it easier for me to spam my teleport button when I know they're about to trigger a trap and has better reaction time for when a trap goes off when I'm not paying as much attention.

    You don't need any info perks on hag, in the first place gens shouldn't be that far from you.

    At the start of the game you should decide what side of the map you'll protect so again info perks are not needed.

    As for those 3 perks bitter murmur is extremely bad as it activates 5 times at most and the info is only good on chase killers hag isn't one. bbq also isn't that good as you don't want to go 40+ meters away potentially outside your set up and bbq slows you down as you need to set up a trap at the hook or nearby. finally surveillance isn't that useful since gens should be easy to check and their are simply better perks to use.

    chase perks and regression, you can also run TR perks if you really want and the only aura reading i would ever run is nurses calling.

    Im currently using stbfl, surge, MYC, and pop.

    There is one perk that is iffy on Hag which is corrupt intervention, using it makes it so it's harder to secure a 3-4 gen later in the game but can help get chases started faster but that also might mess up your set up. It does stall the match but as said makes it harder to win later on.
