New Pig Hook Build

Hello, this is a new build that will be working with the new Pinhead perks. I see some potential and I think this build could be interesting to try out. It's a mix of slowdown build and debut build so let me know of your thoughts on it.

Perks- Hex: Plaything, Scourge Hook: Gift of Pain, Undying, Hex: Haunted Grounds

Addons- Face Mask, and choose one of the following Jigsaws Sketch, Amanda's Secret, tampered timer, or Rule set No. 2.

Let's start with the perks.

Hex: Plaything

This will synergies with the first RBT placed on a survivor when hooked, once they are off hook, they'll be oblivious until they Cleanse the assigned totem allowing you to sneak up on them when they are struggling to remove the RBT.

This one isn't required but can make the survivor easier to find in the open since they'll be running around like a headless chicken due to the oblivious effect from the last perk. If you don't want this, I'd change it for ruin, thrill, devour, or Whispers.

Hex Haunted Grounds (you can look this one up if you don't know.)

So the point is to give you lethality and to instil fear of cleansing totems. With Plaything summoning totems, it's going to leave cleansing to a gamble due to a blindness effect from an addon that I'll explain later. Repeated with Undying to make it hell for the survivors.

Hex: Undying- this is to make chaos. With Plaything, survivors are going to stay oblivious and this will reactivate Haunted Grounds, making this very evil if not cleansed.

Addons-

Facemask- this is what brings this all together. While having a RBT, you'll be blind, removing all hex aura reading perks and preventing you from seeing Plaything from up close (if works correctly). This causes the survivors to be running around like a headless chicken looking for the correct hex to remove their oblivious effect and to remove the RBT to remove the blindness. This will make all survivors with a RBT on their first hook completely useless until they get their RBT along with making them vulnerable to your attacks by sneaking up on them.

The last addon is up to you.

Jigsaws Sketch- adds an additional box, makes it take longer to remove the RBT, effectively makes them useless for longer on average. Can also be more lethal with RBT

Tamper Timer- just adds lethality to RBTs.

Rule set No2.- makes the survivor unable to see box auras until their RBT starts. Makes them useless and vulnerable for a longer time. Can be more lethal since you can't see boxes until timer starts.

Crate of Gears- makes searching take longer. Just makes survivor useless longer and can be more lethal since you have to dedicate more time to search.

Amanda's Secret: removes your ability to see boxes but you see the aura of a survivor on a box. Gain a notification when a RBT is removed. This perk is generally seen as not very good by most. I agree but it still has synergy here. Since you can see survivors on boxes, you need to make sure they don't remove the RBT so they can't see auras. Because of this, you need to be able to scare survivors away of they are nearby or flat out down them. Remember that they are sitting ducks with the RBT on due to the oblivious and blindness.

Gameplan: at the start, find survivors and down them. Everytime a survivor goes down for the first time, trap them. I dont care how early or late in the game your in, always trap on survivors first down so Plaything becomes a nightmare to remove since it only applies on their first hook.

Patrol boxes and hexes to keep survivors from cleansing and scare off gens when able. Commit to a chase if they haven't been downed yet and you think you can down em quickly. If all goes according to plan, you'll have a bunch of headless chickens on your hands.

Keep em off boxes and hexes as much as possible. Get free downs whenever a Haunted Grounds is cleansed.

People usually get mad when you down them with the RBT on their head but remember, you want to down them even with the RBT is on, they are sitting ducks for a reason, take advantage of the blind/oblivious effects and get your free down.

If you have any comments or recommendations, I'd love to hear it. Thank you!
