The Pig Needs Love
Okay. So I think The Pig is a killer that needs some bang for her buck.
Right now, Pig's main gimmick is her Reverse Beartraps, Which are only applied after the survivor is placed on the ground. Her secondary powers are severely underwhelming and are in need of additional bonuses.
I will lay out the concept.
The Pig:
Special Ability: Crouch
The Pig Moves at a slower movement speed while crouched (4.0 m/s). The Pig is granted The Undetectable Status Effect while Crouched.
(Reason for tweaks: her Crouch attack is incredibly slow and actively hinders her map pressure. This would allow her some equal footing with survivors that are just running about)
Special Attack: Ambush
Press and Hold the attack Button while Crouched to perform an Ambush attack on a survivor. During an Ambush, the Pig can effortlessly vault Windows and Pallets.
(I think the Pig's Ambush has a lot of potential, I like the roar, as it's in line with the movie, but id like to see the agility of the Pig be upped to include vaulting. This would make her power have a much better anti-loop potential in my opinion.)
Special Status: Drugged(or Numbed)
Successfully attacking a Survivor with an Ambush attack causes them to lose a health state, become Exhausted and reduces the Movement Speed bonus caused by their injury by 25%. Additionally, Survivors suffer from blurred vision and reduced hearing.
Drugged wears off after 60 seconds.
(I believe the concept of the drugging would be incredibly in-tone with the Saw Franchise, as that's how Amanda and other disciples would subdue their targets.)

That way to much man. Just simply allow her to ambush a little quicker so the survivor can't always run away soon u Crouch

Current Combat Straps + Johns Medical File Basekit and Ambushs can break Pallets and Breakable Doors.
Thats all we need.
Edit: Of course mostly we need Hello Zepp (!)

I kind of think pig is relatively okay. Not too strong or too weak (.. you know for regular play, barring comp). One thing I would love is for crouch speed to be a little faster but still slower than survivor speed.
Or
Her crouch camera to be a little more elevated.

"Drugged" seems cool, but I'm not sure if having blurred vision for 60 seconds would be okay.
If the transition time were reduced to 0.6 seconds, Workshop Grease basekit and John's Medical basekit Pig would be more balanced and fun than before. Additionally, her weaker addons like Interlocking Razor, Razor Wires, Last Will, and Rusty Attachments should be either reworked or buffed. In my opinion, Ambush Attack should destroy pallets and breakable doors instead of vaulting pallets.

No.
Nerf Pig only.
She shalln't be buffed!

I settle for a longer ambush, and part of some gray crouch related addons should be basekit

Tbh, I think thematically everyone should start with a trap and pig can add new traps on survivors (obviously several addons would need tweaked). Slow down the head trap trigger. Readjust the crouch since it's pretty garbage.

Just make her crouch faster and increase movement speed, then I am happy piggy.

Just use Corrupt or Lethal Pursuer or Videotape jeez

She could be as fast as survivors in crouch.
John's Medical File should be basekit 100%
Her point of view when crouched should be 1 meter higher. You literally cannot see survivors, but they can see you.
Also, she could grab survivors when crouched.
With these three changes, the Pig would be more optimal in stealth than before.

K thanks

Ambush vaulting and grabbing would be absolutely welcomed, but this blurry vision thing is too much.
