NEW KILLER IDEA PLEASE TRY TO IMPLEMENT THIS IT WOULD BE AWESOME

I want so, so desperately for this killer to be added to the game, so please consider this at least BHVR.

The Scientist
My man the scientist is a tall, slender killer that has been spotlight goggles over his eyes similar to The Iron Giant, but, of course as goggles. He has sticky-uppy hair like Rick from Rick and Morty and wears a lab coat and tie that is tied off that the waist with a belt, making it look similar to a tunic. Hes just wearing normal pants. All over this guy are patches where an acidic solution went to town on him. The entire bottom left of his face is all bone. Half his mouth is bone so it should look something similar to Two-Face from Batman. There are some parts of his body that are completely missing chunks of flesh and he has a big hole in his stomach where his intestines are spilling out similar to the Doctor's Hallowed Blight cosmetic. His appendages are dotted with holes where you can see dried blood and bone. One of his lower legs is even robotic from when an acidic experiment went wrong and he lost a leg. He built that prosthetic to replace his leg.(I can link some concept art to help you imagine what he looks like) His weapon is a tong that was melted to a tip and has glowing hot metal oozing and glowing from the tip.

His Power
His power is similar to the Huntress and Clown. He has 5 flasks of "The Corrosive Formula" that he can throw from a significantly smaller range and has a surprisingly small area of effect. When a survivor enters this area of effect, they are placed on a 5 second timer that, when elapsed, with knock them down a health state. The survivor can do nothing to stop this. However, in order to balance the power, the throw range is REALLY small, i mean we are talking lunge distance here. Also, you cant throw it over pallets. Instead, you can toss it ONTO the pallet and it will break after, say 6 seconds. Keep in mind you only get 5. Also, after launching a flask, you are heavily slowed to either Wraith uncloaking speed or the end of a chainsaw run on Leatherface. That way its not an instadown if a survivor finds themselves out in the open. To refill the power there are lab stations that spawn in the 2 main buildings on each map, or just the shack if there isnt 2 on certain maps. You can refill your flasks there.

Stats
-115% movement speed
-Tall
-Average Lunge Distance
-Instead of a red stain he has the spotlight eyes that glow a bright yellow and project on the survivors back like a spotlight.

The Chapter would be called... "Freak Accident!"
(please DBD this would be such a badass and perfect installment to the roster of killers i absolutely love the thought of him being in the game)

    Killer sounds decent the fact that his power can destroy pallets is pretty nice. I'd increase the distance though, lunge diistance makes it more worth lunging rather then throwing the bottles. Make it to double the normal lunge and he's solid.

    I really like all the effort that you have gone to with the diagrams/pictures as well. It does sound great.

    I REALLY like this idea. It’s so cool.

    @MandyTalk It’s nice to see you again by the way! Could you pass this on to the Devs if possible? I’d like to see this Killer come into action!

    I like this idea, hopefully it'll get passed along to the developers. Great concept of a killer!

  • the main problem with killer ideas are that they are too similar to existing killers but you have managed to mix the killers pretty well and i think they would be a solid pick, but i think the lunge distance throw is a bit too small because you may as well attack instead

    make a survivor also and you have just done a new chapter if you do that probably the devs will do this killer also ideas for perks

    What a neat idea, with further balancing, this could be a solid killer!
