What do you think of the new tome?

I'm curious about what everyone thinks of the new tome.

Personally, I love it. Pig and Nea's new outfits are really cool and I love the charms that reference the SAW movies. My favorite charm has to be the Billy charm, mainly because it's animated.

I think most if not all of the skins in this tome are perfect. The devs did good with this tome.

    New cosmetics are good but recolors are bad (except David). Why so much green? :(

    Want to wait until I see tapp’s archive story but otherwise pretty good. Deathslinger’s skin is disappointing though

    A Christian holiday? But even if this is reason, green was so ugly on this cosmetics.

    I don't believe the religion behind the holiday makes a difference my dude. Maybe I'm wrong but I really don't see why it would.

    I agree that green is generally an ugly color for just about anything though

    I'm a little bleh on how many Saint Patrick's Day recolors we have. The Valentines ones are more versatile for the most part, and they seem widely usable, but the St. Patty's Day stuff is way too garish for my tastes and I doubt I'll use any of it. The only one it really fits is David.

    Sad we didn't get a Boop the Snoot charm or a Pig doll.

    Absolutely love Billy and Mandy's new outfits, though. And Nea's cat charm is delightful. (Why can't I put Rotten on all my killer hooks, this isn't fair)

    Sorry, i just don't know about St Patty's Day, i checked google. And yeah, probably theme is coming from this. I liked David's new recolor version but others seem so bad. Probably i will only use Kate's new hair & pant and David's cosmetic.

    The new cosmetics look good. Recolors don't seem like anything special.

    I'm disappointed for Blight's weapon they called it a "gold cane" instead of "gold shillelagh."

    The free track has less than normal so it just looks worse than it usually does, they really need to add something like BP or Shards to it.

    Blight skin.

    I am happy.

    "Why make a tome for a killer that's on the weaker side of the spectrum?" That's my thoughts for now.

    Mainly because it would be better if the tomes can be used to have people want to try and maybe keep using after the event is said and done. Now then with how the most recent updates answer me this do you think more people will continue to use pig or just say screw it and go back to what they did before hand?

    I’m oddly endeared by the SAW charms. Excited to get those up on my Pig’s hooks. Pigs cosmetics look great. Hillbilly has a goof cosmetic to wrap the Tome up too.

    The St Pattys day cosmetics are really solid. Looking forward to playing with Deathslinger’s.

    A character being strong or weak has nothing to do with their lore. Getting a SAW tome is awesome because it's a full tome of licensed characters, full of goodies for fans of the franchise.

    Come back to me after the event cause I want to see how many are going to keep playing pig and not just dump her for a better option.

    Ehhh they’re not my favorite.

    Is the point of tomes supposed to be to get people to have new mains? Because I wouldn't expect that to happen any more than I'd expect daily challenges to do it.

    We saw a ton of Tricksters last tome. We saw a ton of Clowns the tome before that. Now those killers have retreated back to being rarities. I hardly think that means their tomes were failures or not worth doing.

    I like the way it's opened up the way for other licenced chapters possibly having their own Tomes.

    After Halloween, Saw is my favourite featured franchise.

    Hopefully we get a Halloween tome. Let's have it BHVR: This October...just in time for Halloween Ends! Make it happen.

    I don't like it. I don't pay premium and none of the free skins in de upper part belong to any character I use, the charms are trash as always and too many empty levels. After the top tier Plague skin and the nice Feng skin of the past Rift it would have been too lucky to have another good Rift I guess, haha.

  • CyberDragoon656

    No but like I said to either another on here or a simular forum but to me the tomes should be a reason to try new killers and use them to have people keep using the starring killers and such afterwards especially with a new cosmetic for pig that people like so again thanks to how the devs made pig weak much like most now why bother trying if after the event is over you will never use them again because there's someone who does their job but better.

    What do I think?

    The word "colonoscopy" comes to mind. That's the smell that permeates my brain when I think of the tome. Take that how you will.

    I need Pig's skin now (at least the headpiece. Might use the Jigsaw robe too, but I'll be sticking with the drill weapon). Couldn't care less about the rest.

    The Saw content is indeed amazing, but the rest...
