Best way to make HillBilly balanced and good at the same time
Overheat mechanic:
Completely remove the overheat or make using any add-ons which increases your charge time like engravings should also increase the limit of how much you can use your chainsaw, in more easy way engravings should have build in "JUNKYARD AIR FILTER"
In my opinion that's one of the biggest Billy problem's which might cause to lose a down because of the overheat.
Add-ons:
Talking about charge speed add-ons like "TUNED CARBURETUR" they should not affect your speed and would be only charge speed change, same with "MOTHER'S HELPER" should give you permanent charge time for entire match, reason for that if you have charge time for 30 second's you can't get used to it quick enough to feel the charge bar, and in that case charge time add-ons should not stack just like cooldown one's, and talking about cooldown in my opinion none of those add-ons were overpowered if they would be used like engraving + thompson's mix or something like that.
Animations:
This is not that big of a deal but new Billy animations feels really uncomfortable and just moves your point of view up and down for some reason, but i guess that's not that important.
WE NEED BILLY MAINS TO COME BACK...

All they need to do is revert him but remove tuning guide and spark plug. He’ll be fine then
2 -
The only changes he needs imo are to make engravings decrease the speed you overheat at. Otherwise he's fine (from a Billy main).

This was the most unnecessary nerf, all they had to do is balance the add-ons to there standard like 2 IRI and all of that stuff.

Agree, but those changes in my opinion would not make him op either but more fun for sure.

They also need to change engravings rarity down to yellow and brown. Then, he will be perfect (from another Billy main).
2 -
They just need to revert his nerf. That is it.
The only "OP" thing about Old Billy were select few add-on combinations, and even that can be debatable. As long as they do not return in the same way, he should be in a good spot.

I completely agree with you, but that might be "OP" for new players.

That's an interesting one but since im runing out of them i will agree =)

Everything is OP for new players. If we take that matter into consideration then every killer in the game needs to get nerfed.

I think the devs should buff his skillful playstyle (curving).
Keep the long default charge up time but buff the maximum curve angle.
That way he will be able to curve/antiloop with more distance to the survivor if you hit the curve timing correctly.

True, but you know what i mean for semi-decent players which just cry about everything.

I like the idea, even tho they killed a lot of loops that you can curve or flick with map reworks.

Remove the overheat and change some of the more pointless Add-ons. Personally, I don't even have a problem with current Billy, I love playing him but I understand the people who do have problems with him. He doesn't need the overheat, he just needed Add-on changes.

I only started playing DBD last month, and Hillbilly is my favorite killer. Of course I wasn't around when 'old' billy was in play.
I'm not sure if I agree with getting rid of the overheat mechanic for billy.
I do like the idea of improving his add-ons. Some of his good add-ons come with a penalty that I need should be reworked.
Spiked Boots and Tuned Carburettor shouldn't come with a penalty. It should straight up boost your steering and reduce charge time respectively.
Black Grease needs a rework/buff.
The Engravings shouldn't come with a charge penalty.
Just my thoughts.

They nerfed nurse and killed billy, and they still say the game is killer sided.
Those rank 20 babies are meme-walking people
Btw im another old billy main. I moved to Bubba.

Spiked Boots penalty is fine since it's kinda hard to hit something when you have that turn rate, about carburetor i agree, talking about engravings charge time penalty is also reasonable, you check old billy videos for example - RIP billy from ayrun he used a bunch of different combinations there.

Nurse was way to strong for sure, but whenever they do add-ons rework they add such a boring or useless add-ons.
