Killer add-ons

With the recent buff to Ace in the Hole, I wondered if the devs have anything like this planned for killers.
The possibility to keep the add-ons or even gain add-ons during the match.

Or is there a reason why only survivors can keep and even gain items + add-ons during a match?

    just add 2 chests on the map with killer addons.
    They could even add something like Plunderer's for killers to help you find better stuff.
    No ultra rare tho.

    It's kinda easy for a killer to get more BPs than survivors, i guess that's why they dont get to keep the addons nor get them in the match.

    Killers have better add ons too, I constantly have mori’s in the bloodwebs, ultra rares/very rares too as Killer. So it makes sense to not renew them.

    Survivor gets only less points if he plays bad.
    I usually get between 20 and 30.000 bloodpoints per match as survivor. Without bonus points.

    So that can't be the reason.
    Unless bad players should be given a special treatment. Ohh wait...

    Killer and survivor add-ons have roughly the same strength. Only difference is, that killer add-ons give a vague "increases considerably" while survivors get fixed numbers. But the end result is the same.

    I think a perk that works with the obsession would be fitting. Like "hit the obsession for a chance to get a add-on" or "kill the obsession for a chance to get a add-on".

    I think if a killer double-pips in a match, they should have a 50% chance of keeping at least 1 of the add-ons they used.

    i feel like there should be something by default to let you get addons like chests

    Survivors get MORE points if killer plays bad, or you meant survivors get less points if THEY play bad?
    U usually get between 20k and 30k? Good, but what i said is that the killer usually gets more than survivors, not that survivors get a few BPs.

    I think that the 3 man should be considered the killer's win and he/she should retain their add-ons (maybe not the ultra rares??????).

    This is simply wrong. I get more points if the killer plays good.
    A bad killer won´t get hooks. Meaning no unhook points, no heal points. Survivors and killers get roughly the same amount of BPs per time spend. Not per match, but per time spend. If a survivor performs bad, he can just jump into a new match. Killer has to stay until everyone leaves.

    Personally if i get big emblems it was a good BP game too (16000 BP more or less).

    You will get, on the other hand: 1k BP per stun, the longer is the chase the more BP, etc

    Those 2 things don´t exclude each other. You can get points for unhooking and for stunning or flashlight saving.

    Nope, but happens more often with bad killers. Also bad killers can hook and hit you, either because the do or you let them if they are that bad. 
    PS: i've sometimes been hooked by bad killers because everything they did was nonsense and confused me xD
