bHVR, I have played a lot of Vecna since his release. I knew that addon was busted, but to change it into something so niche, so esoteric and so miniscule for an addon slot seem to go against everything we have asked for in addon reworks, which was "to make the addons a good choice"

I have no confidence in this addon change, Please explain to me how viable this changed addon is. Cause as I see it, there is no way I would willingly equip this. When? When would I ever have a vault next to a blocked pallet, where 10% vault speed would make a difference?

Honestly I am disappointed, we have a lot of Killers that need better addons, but you seem to take 3 steps back with this pure new Killer by trashing this addon, which yes you had to change it, but is this the best you could come up with? But maybe I'm wrong, if someone can sell this to me as the new great thing please do.

Next time, can you post a thread asking for ideas for a good solid Killer Power addon?
Cause this is unbelievable and baffeling.

    They could've made it like 30% or something. 10% is just super insignificant for such a niche circumstance.

    Here is what I find bad its that its so obvious that the changed addon is a poor nice choice for so far all the regular Vecna gamers I have asked, that is has to be an oversight or a mistake. But I know bHVR will fix it eventually, the problem is that chances are high that unless we can alarm them to it now, we then have to wait for the stat elves to report low usage rate to the designers and wait for them to take action.

    The process is long and slow, when bHVR could do a survey right now or have made a thread saying like: "We have decided to change this addon, do you have any fun/ enticing ideas for the alternative?" bHVR's process is SO SLOOOOW and the addon issues on Killers are neglected for so long and sometimes the fixes don't really fix anything, its haunting me. HAUNTED!

    But Im really hoping they take your idea on 30% seems interesting at least, still niche but better.

    its so situational. could it not just be an aura reveal perk, or increse mage hand range or something more genericly useful? atleast do like 20% for 20 seconds or something

    Someone please do the math and tell me how much time it takes off vaulting. I could use the laugh.

    or they could made the add-on lift pallets for insignificant value change like 5%. It is just typical BVHR doing over-kill changes.

    I am glad they changed that addon, however I agree the new effect is very weak.

    The addon will be weak, but it's much better that way than having it be op. Now I just wish they would nerf or rework Boots of Speed.

    I like the idea of having threads for addon concept suggestions

    Would be fun giving some my ideas for addons to killers who need addon reworks

    Weak add-on. Would have preferred maybe it would reveal auras of survivors around pallets that you mage hand or something.

    It's a yellow add-on though? It's niche, yes, and maybe it could use a small buff to the number - but as mikhail said; I too think it's meant to help you outplay certain vault-structures that would otherwise be pretty hard to get hits on.
