Hillbilly, Leatherface, and Nurse Addon Ideas

Intro

Max, Bubba, and Sally are the only three killers who do not have any Ultra Rare addons. I know they might not need them, but it still seems out of place to me! Pop some ideas for what their Ultra Rare addons could be in the comments! Here's a couple ideas from me:

Addons

Hillbilly

Iridescent Chain

  • Chainsaw hits apply the Broken status effect for 60 seconds.
  • Movement speed is slightly decreased.
  • Chainsaw sprint speed is considerably decreased.
  • Chainsaw steering is moderately decreased.
  • There is no Chainsaw noise

Cannibal

Survivor Chili

  • Movement speed is slightly decreased.
  • Breaking pallets does not end the chainsaw sprint.
  • Chainsaw charge time is moderately increased.
  • Chainsaw sprint time is moderately increased.
  • Time penalty when running into objects is tremendously increased.

Nurse

Philip's Whisper

  • Movement speed is slightly increased.
  • Right click does not use blink.
  • Using the Killer Power Button now sets a return location.
  • Right click blinks you to the return location.
  • The number of return locations are determined by how many blinks you have.

Final Note

These are just ideas I came up with on the fly. Be sure to write your ideas in the comments!

Edit: added a term to Philip's Whisper to make other addons more viable.
Edit 2: If we get something good going with the stuff I have, I'll probably repost them in the Wishlist subforum

    I really like all of them, Really well balanced.
    Intresting concept, "Philip's Whisper". Like a save point, cool.

    I tried to make all of them change how the killer is played a little, since thats what the good Ultra Rare's do! In my head, the "save points" showed up for the Nurse like the littler marker you get with the Flannel addon.

    The Nurse add-on makes her basically a Hag. Maybe if it was in addition to her normal power it would be good but if she couldn't blink like normal I feel like this would hurt more than help.

    I think a better pink add-on for Nurse would be to make her blinks silent, or at least they can only be heard within close range.

    Very well done, also I love that you didn't cop out and give Leatherface and Billy the same effect. You really narrowed down the real difference between the two, giving Leatherface a sprint even after the palletbreak is HUGE, same goes for Billy with no sound, if the Survivor isn't paying attention they'll get cut down and this can also make sniper shots possible.

    Oooh, that could be good. Like removing her screech or something like that?

    Yeah, I tried to make Billy synergize with his perks more. I think it would be pretty freakin scary for a billy to come out of nowhere just as you're about to finish a gen.

    I made this a few days ago for another thread:

    Hillbilly/Leatherface:
    Iridescent Chains: Survivors hit by the Chainsaw receive the Broken status effect for at least 120 seconds.

    Sturdy Chassis: Grants immunity to stuns while chainsaw sprinting. Slightly increases the Chainsaw's movement speed. Slightly decreases chainsaw charge time. Reduces the Chainsaw's cooldown (not sure by how much though). For this one I was thinking about giving a Leatherface exclusive effect of the chainsaw run not stopping when breaking a pallet.

    Nurse:
    Memories of Andrew: Unlocks potential in her aura-reading ability. While charging your blink, the auras of Survivors within X meters (not sure, probably somewhere around 16-24) are revealed to you.

    Paramedic's Last Breath: Silences the blink.

    Since the devs are trying to give every Killer two Ultra Rare add-ons, I decided to make some add-ons for the Killers that only have one. You don't have to read them if you don't want to.

    Doctor:
    Project Awakening Notes/Iridescent Queen: Your Static Field affects the entire map. Shock Therapy range is increased by at least 50%. Slightly increases the charge time of shock therapy. Illusions now have collision against a Survivor.

    Huntress:
    Mother's Axe/Family Photo: Hatchets automatically refill every X seconds or slightly increases movement speed. Hatchet targets suffer from the Deep Wound effect and have 15/20 seconds (not sure how long) to Mend themselves. Iridescent Head will override the Deep Wound effect.

    I cannot comprehend how anyone would call those addon ideas for Hillbilly or Leatherface anything but bad.

    Most of those 60 seconds of brokenness is spent lying on the floor, being transported to and hanging from a hook. You nerf his ability way too much for such a bad effect, and ADDITIONALLY you reduce movement speed....

    Leatherface wwould be smarter to just kick the pallet if his charge time gets increased. Also: movement speed.

    I know you said you didnt take much time to consider these addons, but theyre seriously underpowered or actually detrimental to use.

    I'd love to hear your suggestions then!
