Buff Idea for Pig
Survivors can only use the Jigsaw box furthest from them. Should the pig stay around the box, trying to camp it, which would be hard anyways because it's hard to tell which box is the furthest, another box will become available. If the box is searched, and it doesn't have the key, another box will light up.
This will make Rng less hurtful towards the pig. It will also make Rbts more threatening.
I also think that the 1st box should only have a ~%10 of having the key.
Thoughts? I feel like this would be a really positive change for her.

This would be too punishing. Stick this mechanic on a map like Red Forest or any other huge map with Tampered Timer, she's guarenteed a head pop, pretty much. You have to waste time running to the other side of the map, knowing that box is very likely not going to be the right one, so you've just eaten about 45 seconds of the timer already and now have 3, possibly 4, left to search.
All they need to do is these two things:
- Make it so that the 1st box has a decreased chance of it being the correct one. That way it still has a chance to be the right box, but more often than not won't be.
- Make it so Pig cannot see Jigsaw Boxes as base kit (the purple add-on can still exist to make it so she can, but in reality, Pig players who know how to play her do not need to know where boxes are. It's a lethal slowdown mechanic, after all. A Pig wanting to know where boxes are ultimately relinquish pressure on survivors actually doing the objectives.)
Making it be anything more conveluded than that will make people hate vsing a very fun killer.

Combing that with Tampered Timer and Jigsaw's Sketch, you could very easily die before even having a chance to get your trap off. Having to go to the furthest box up to five times on a large map in the span of 2 minutes is an extremely tall order. Getting trapped could mean dying with no possible way to take it off.

You know that there isn't a % chance for your trap to go off?
There is one key in one jigsaw box randomly placed at the start of the trial for every rbt that Pig has.
There isn't any % chance, if you don't find it, your trap just doesn't go off.

Think of her traps as portion rationing. You wouldn't want to use up all of your rationing with 5 gens up still, right? It's meant to buy time, which helps, since she's an M1 killer. I usually like to do 1-2-1 with my traps, and I've never needed add ons for piggy

I've to search usually 3 boxes before the trap comes off. The pig is so over powered due to this.
Instead of getting to do genny's up, am having to run around map looking for the machines to get trap off.
Then the creep he has, out of no where they're up my bum before I even know it.
