    I thought the same; it's like a built-in whispers. I still think it's a shame that they threw away her late-game power, though.

    Yes, it's a built-in Whispers, I made a thread about this two days ago:

    https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/discussion/59119/built-in-whispers-for-the-pig

    Bottom line: Built-in Whispers can be useful, but it doesn't make up for Pig's nerfs. I'd prefer to keep Pig how she currently is.

    No doubt this was a mistake to give built in whispers no doubt will be removed once we get a free 5th perk hate comes so still would prefer old pig.

    It's barely a consolation prize given that they increased her terror radius in the last set of nerfs. Killing someone with a trap is now even harder, yet they didn't change how it can be done (following someone while crouched). If anything, it makes this abuse case easier, since you'll be able to track them to their boxes easier.

    It's a colossal nerf to Pig's gameplay, and just makes her weaker in general. Even worse so is that she doesn't benefit from terror radius builds to even make the proximity of this useful in her old gameplay design. Couple this with the endgame being longer than 3 minutes due to hooks and downs, and even the endgame nerf doesn't hold much water.

    Basically: These nerfs make no sense.
