The Amanda's Letter add-on for The Pig has been Kill Switched due to an issue with incorrect RBT count.

Amanda's stealth, and how to improve it, along with the improvements to the rest of her kit
As we know The Pig, or how I will be referring her to as being Amanda Young, has the worst stealth in the game along side her existence being knowable every round before even seeing her
Now I thought of a few ways to improve her traps, while making her a high threat in both stealth and making her traps stall the game for much longer
Change: Jigsaw boxes
Something that has upset me ever since she released was that her boxes let everyone know "Hey, its Amanda" and I hate that, so I thought of this
Her boxes are invisible until the first trap is put onto a survivor, in which all boxes will appear for everyone. Another change I wanted to do to improve her jigsaw boxes is when taking off a trap, I remembered how Pyramid Head's cages don't spawn in the same spots, but change when caging a survivor, I thought about making the Boxes do something similar to this to make the searches take longer. I want to make Amanda's boxes change locations after its usage resulting in the survivor removing their trap to a random location. Her add-ons affecting boxes will change (Her URs will be mentioned as I gave them a lovely touch that ya'll will enjoy)
(This I want people to look a the most as it could cause the most issues)
Change: Rule set no.2 and amanda's letter
I cannot stress this enough, both of her UR add-ons are terrible and people praise RSN2 for some reason, which is why I didn't make it basekit as that would just nerf amanda
(HEADS UP: These changes correspond with my changes to her boxes, meaning these won't work without those)
Rule Set No.2: Boxes will move after every search, instead of just after a successful trap removal
Amanda's letter: successful dash attacks will make you undetectable for 20 seconds, when crouched The Pig can see survivor auras from up to 18 meters. (Removed the reduction of Boxes and Removed the reduction of traps)
Change: amanda's secret and slow release toxin
Amanda's secret is a weird add-on (I have no idea if its good or not I never used it, found bag and crate more useful anyways) and her most well known add-on, Neurotox- I mean Slow release toxin
Amanda's secret: When a survivor has a trap on their head, they are affected by the incapacitated effect. Survivors cannot escape through Hatch while this is on their head. (JIGSAW BOX SEARCHES ARE STILL USABLE)
Slow Release toxin: Survivors will be exhausted if they have a trap on their head for 5 seconds, every 10 seconds the exhaustion effect will be reapplied but it will be longer (initial trap is 5 seconds, 10 seconds 10, 20 seconds 15, etc) OR it will remain unchanged. (Once the trap is removed the survivor will no longer be exhausted)
Change: crouch and dash
Her crouch's issue is mainly the speed she moves and how loud she stands up, I wanna change these
Crouch speed is now 100%, up from 90% (She now moves at the same speed as survivors, allowing her to be able to catch up to sprinting survivors without losing distance)
Standing up will still produce a sound, but its only within 2 meters of the uncrouch, 2-4 meters its quieter, 4+ it is unhearable completely
Her dash attack is now 1 second longer, it is still considered a special attack
I would love some critic on the changes I want her to have and if any I provided need to be changed up, tinkered, or revamped
EDIT: Fixed the title as I noticed I had it as the old title, and not my full changes

Amanda’s secret could lead to some unfun endgame scenarios
Id also change tampered timer and crate of gears since they can lead to death since you can’t search all the boxes in time

I agree about tampered timer that will have to be changed to something different. As for Amanda's secret it would be a red add-on and they can still get trap off just eliminates hatch really won't be every game.
Yes I dislike them seeing the boxes right of the start as well. Might as well just tell them while loading in like for rank 20's. I like it but there something in my gut that I can't quite figure out that telling me to say this would be OP. That being said though I don't find her weak so maybe that's why. Would like the boxes to be hidden and crouch quicker though.

If you are incapacitated and it’s the endgame collapse the pig can just keep chasing you no? You literally can’t escape at that point

You shouldn't be playing her like a stealth killer.

Their isn't many stealth Killers in the game and out of the few that are not many can do sneaky gen grabs like she and ghostface can. Making pig a better stealth killer is the way to change her.

They should remove the status effect trap add-ons and possibly replace them with crouch movement speed or just increase the base crouch movement speed

True. However like I said it would be a red add-on, you would have to be caught, trapped, and chased again so theres chances to either not get caught in the first place or lose her during endgame. Timer does not run down when searching or being chased. Also the pig would have to gamble and hold on to a trap or two for late in game for this to even matter.

I am eventually gonna go through and look at all of her add-ons, those I wanted to look into the most, however Amanda's secret I do wanna change as I have no clue if it was good so I went for using the Incapacitated effect, i'll look for some more to change when I go more indepth
I would like to think of it kinda manifesting in, with like an entity effect pulling it in (Kinda like a burning effect towards the spawn)
Her crouch removes her TR so I think she is sorta like a stealth killer, enhancing her stealth capabilites while not making her too much of a drag to face would make her have multiple playstyles, whilst also being strong in the chase, making her on par with GhostFace's grab and ambush abilites

Make her able to grab while crouching.

My pig rework
1 the first change rng
when you search the first box you have like a 2%chance to get it off after that a random box is chosen to have the key
(You almost never get it off first try but works the same after the 1st box
2 crouch and ambush
Base crouch speed is 100% ambush has the increased charge addon at base the addon now make your roar silent
And change mandates letter to either keep all traps or increases the aura range to 24m
