What is the most powerful red add-on?

My opinion, iridescent head is the most op red add-on,1 oneshotting hatchet. But,you can stack it with the belts that give you more hatchets and in the best case you have 3 oneshotting hatchets. Then....I dunno. I could say the oni red add-on that allows all players to see the auras of the orbs,but when a survivor walks into the orb their aura is revealed. I also love the plauges which reveals auras Everytime a survivor pukes🤮🤮🤮🤮.

What do you guys think? Let me know down below.

    The Oni's addon is significantly weaker than most in that Oni ends up having significantly less orbs to use for activating his power. If we're talking about combos like your iri head combo...Mint rag+rusty shackles would probably take the cake. Throw make your choice on this and you'll never be able to manage a rescue off hook without just trading places.

    Iri heads for sure.

    Black incense is also strong.

    Yikes no one is gonna talk about Plague's add on which just makes it so she sees everyone at all times and it's pretty hard to tell if she even has this add on?

    Black Incense

    Iridescent Heads

    Old Renjiro's Bloody Glove

    I guess it depends on whether or not we're considering using it with other add-ons. I would say Iridescent Head if you're using it with an Infantry Belt, but otherwise I'd go with Fragrant Tuft just on its own.

    Black Incense, because I love to choose whether I want to be 24/7 visible or die via machine gun.

  • Mattie_MayhemOG

    Black Incense for sure

    Iri Head, Black Incense, Iri Seal, Mint rag (You can snowball the ######### out of the survivors with the right build.. so nasty)

    I think that's it. Perma T3 and Pinky Fingers Addons are also pretty nice. I can't say anything about the Oni-Addons, because I play this big boy for practice reasons without addons.

    The most awful ones: Nurse, Demo.. pls..

  • thefallenloser
    thefallenloser Member Posts: 1,281

    Here are my top 5:

    1. Black Incense
    2. Iridescent Head
    3. Fragrant Tuft of Hair
    4. Judith's Tombstone
    5. Iridescent King

    I would like to see more unique add-ons, such as Nurse's new ones in the future, and all add-ons, current and future should take the approach of Nurse's.

    Almost every pink addon is relatively balanced. Some more weak while others more powerful. Example being Iridescent Head by itself can instadown you, but is relatively weak at 1 hatchet. With the belt or loop becomes a lot more powerful. Those 5 hatchets are more powerful then 1 with a good Huntress.

    Myers has the infinite tier 3 while not fun it's definitely balanced as you have to stalk.


    I think Myers double pinks are the most powerful together. Hags mint rag is amazing with MYC.

    SWF.

    While using a mechanic that was definitely not intended for the game, it gives you the following buffs with no negatives.

    Allows every survivor in the group to know where the killer is as soon as they start a chase.

    Allows everyone to know the location of cursed totems if someone of the group spots it.

    Allows for coordinated rescuing, avoiding 2 players wasting time by going for the hook at the same time.

    No need to waste slots with information perks. Can be used with the one year old meta perks, DH, DS, Adre, BT.

    Grants you the ability to turn killers into a play thing, and it's protected by developers, which means it doesn't break after a trial.

    My favorite Red Add-On is Billy and Leatherface's honestyl they are kinda OP and deserve a nerf

  • MegMain98
    MegMain98 Member Posts: 2,919

    Iridescent Head is very strong if paired with Infantry Belt, but it’s weak on it’s own.

    Black Incense probably the most powerful on it’s own with Mint Rag being a close second.

  • BongRips4Wraith
    BongRips4Wraith Member Posts: 87

    That's not an add-on.

    Only a true salt-lord low-skill killer main of Reddit would write a paragraph about SWF in a thread about add-ons.


    Black Insense, Iri Head+ Infantry, and Redhead Pink Finger + Additional Bottles comes close but ...

    Mint Rag with Rusty Shackles basically makes saving impossible if you play hag as she was intended to be played. As a hook defender. Nobody is getting off the hook unless you trade or hook 2 people at once which with that build effectively forces the game to a close in your favor real fast. Other than that most killer iridescents have too many downsides with a crippling downside that makes them not worth at all.

    After the syringe nerf there are 0 Survivor Iris that are good or interesting.

    Dont say that. Those addons should REALLY be allowed to be OP considering how rare they are. I have every perk on Bubba unlocked, and STILL havent gotten a single UR addon, lol.

    pretty much this. The iri heads would be fine alone. You actually have to show some skill to use them, and with just one hatchet, you cannot snowball.

    You don't even have to camp, that's the point XD Therefore my choice for the second best combo

    @Tisfine Black insense is the Plague aura reading one, mentioned. Or did you write it the same time?

    For single addons my top 3 would be:

    Black Insense

    Tuft of Hair

    Coxcombed Clapper

    Iridescent button is the strongest, not because of the ability to kill someone or infinite exposed, or the ability to mori people... it gives you information on all survivors at any given time, and makes them unable to know if the Legion is coming or not. It causes chaos even if the killer isn't there, and that can be far more lethal than permanent expose effect.

    The best red add on is the one where you get an extra blink that you can't use to blink through anything

  • Marcus
    Marcus Member Posts: 2,047

    1 Black Incense

    2 Mother Daughter Ring

    3 Mint Rag/Iridescent Head.

  • Marcus
    Marcus Member Posts: 2,047

    I'll take every of these killers over Black Incense Plague or MD Ring Spirit.

  • BigAsh123

    I’ve always had a soft spot for Doc’s (well current Doctor) iridescent king add on. Makes him nice to play as, especially at high rank. Last night I used it at R1, had to work very hard for my pip but if I didn’t use it I wouldn’t have pipped. Objectively, away from my Doc tinted glasses, probably Turft of Hair or Iridescent Head.

  • MegMain98
    MegMain98 Member Posts: 2,919

    I don’t think Mother Daughter Ring is that powerful especially because sounds are bugged currently. If I couldn’t see the scratch marks, sometimes I would’ve lost the survivor because they randomly gain Iron Will sometimes even when I have Stridor equipped.

    I don’t think MDR should have a downside.

    I dunno. It’s a decent add-on but I would rather use duration and power recovery speed add-ons.

  • Marcus
    Marcus Member Posts: 2,047

    I'm basing this for when the sounds are working normally. It deserves his downside when the sounds are actually working and it's very powerful together Yakuyoke Amulet. But I guess with the sound issues, Black Incense, Mint Rag and Iri Head are the top 3.
