Pinhead finding the box
Is it just me or is it incredible hard to find the box as the killer since everything else has the same colour. Could killers get like a aura around it so we can find the box and cluadette in these dark maps

Thats the point, the box isnt something youre supposed to get every time.
The only thing that gives it away is the sound it makes

Use Hoarder so you're alerted to a survivor picking it up. It's helped me many times. And if you're able, you can send a chain from a distance to stop them from solving it, buying you more time to wrest it from their grasp.

There's the sparks, too, which are pretty noticeable on the darker maps

It tends to spawn in the center of a tile. It's fairly straight forward to pass by a tile, listen for the audio and if it's there get to it almost right away and use it.

I find the box by accident. Often I see electricity in the corner of my eye or I happen to run over top of it.

I wish they made the electric noise louder I pretty much only find it as pinhead by the most quiet electric noise in my ear

The sound that plays in places where it's not even at.

The box will spawn with certain conditions. It'll spawn at the farthest tile from both the survivors and the killer so if you're running lethal pursuer then you can make a pretty reasonable deduction where the box will be at the start of the match and pick it up first and get a free chain hunt. It's only really a problem on maps like swamp where sometimes it'll spawn in the grass making it extremely hard to find even if you know where it's supposed to spawn.

Is that a thing? If so I haven't encountered that yet

I'm pretty sure I encountered that a few times. Chase a survivor at a tile, think I hear the box nearby and search around and it's nowhere to be found. But this was before the previous hotfix since I haven't played pinhead since 5.2.2

All the time. It could have to do with his teleport sounding being about the same as the box sound: standard electricity.

It's meant to be tricky, but the box needs to be a bit louder. Pinhead needs all the help he can get right now, and this would be a small part of what he needs.

easiest find to find the box thanks to this video and I hope the dev see this and add a delay on it so where the box takes a few more seconds or so before it spawns. So the killer can't just find it easily.
