The most important thing Pinhead needs to fix is ​​that his main ability is too weak, not only difficult to operate, but under the same difficulty, many killers are more powerful than Pinhead.

Lament Configuration is already powerful enough, even Pinhead’s only influential force, this ability does not need to be strengthened, as long as the position is displayed to the survivors after the trigger, just let this ability have time to trigger, no need to strengthen it. This ability.

The important thing is Summons of Pain, which is too difficult and weak to operate. This ability needs to be effective in areas with obstacles, instead of giving survivors an advantage. The main ability is the only way the killer can fight against the survivors. However, now Pinhead’s Summons of Pain is too weak against skilled players.

    Lament Configuration + Chain Hunt is what makes him good and annoying.

    But Summons of Pain are hard to use (easy to dodge) and even if you hit survivor, you don't get much from it.

    Around loops, you are often limited with only one way, because with other way, you will break your chains, which is just bad.

    I wouldn't mind some small nerf for Chain Hunt, if we can get better overall power we can use.

    I agree.

    Most of Pinhead's power is now in the grasp of the survivors, which is a bad idea for the fast environment now.

    The main ability of Pinhead is the part that needs to be greatly strengthened.

    Or make the operation easier to hit

    For example, the operating mode of twins allows us to at least control the movement of the chain instead of sprinting quickly and making mistakes.

    Too much control over games because of Survivors. I truly wish they would STOP giving survivors control over the killers powers, It always makes for a bad experience. You would THINK they would LEARN that lesson by now. Weird.
