The Executioner

[San Dark Sun]

Good work community.
This was the 1st good buff for a killer in all the years to get closer to A-S tier and DbD community prevent it

I see this killer 2-5 a year but others every game (Nurse, Blight, Wesker, Skull Merchant)
I'm just upset

[CblRobbie]

the problem is how if they wanted to , the killer could just keep caging people over and over and over with no way of safe 'unhook' cause no borrowed time is activated.. cant take a protection hit if the unhooker is trying and no safety net like there is on a real hook. unless the dev team wants to add those safety measures to the cage's or change how his power can work this was probably the best after lots and lots of testing on ptb

I am sad they only changed 1 thing like this, I actually really liked the change and would have made playing him/against him new and fun again.. But you know how it goes these days

[San Dark Sun]

If the cage worked like a hook, there would be no such problem.

Pyramid Head totally does need some buffs (mainly to his add-ons,) but this change was preeeeetty risky and abusable. It's understandable that they would revert it.

[Branchu]

Booooo!

[Ameshy]

mfs calling this a good change then will come back to complain about pp head players camping and tunneling 0.5 seconds after live release

I was expecting them to revert that change. What’s truly disappointing is that they didn’t give us anything in return for that, like reworking his add-ons so that they’re actually useful.

Huge missed opportunity

I agree that he does need to be improved /somehow/, but folk were unfortunately right about how being able to immediately torment folk off of the hook could be oppressive.

Maybe preventing his Judgement's torment if the survivor has Endurance? That way, even if they get smacked while being unhooked, they don't get the status effect

how about leaving his perfectly fine basekit alone and just touching the addons?

abusable? yeah because he can already consistently torment and doesnt average 1-2 torments a game if any at all. this revert makes him bottom tier again. his trail is basically useless same with 90% of his addons.

the usual survivor community getting much needed buffs reverted while also asking for old dead hard back.

The sad part is, pyramid head is truly hard to play, hes slow asf at everything and it sucks, because I enjoyed the character. Honestly it appears the devs are more concerned about kills being op, when survivors can just gen rush and flashlight spam. Dont get me wrong, the killers some of them need updates, but out of all of them pyramid head needed it the most.

Its getting to a point to where, im not really enjoying the game anymore as I used too. It feels more chorish and tedious than previous years. I may drop it and play something else until the devs can fix and balance their own game out because this is getting old.

[Mixed Herbs]

That PTB change was a bad move for the health of the killer. His add-ons need work, not his basekit.

[ParkBenchAlcoholic]

Yeah Killers got massive buffs again. Singularity got major buffs, both his power and perks. Scavenger is a killer perk now. Stop crying, survivor didnt get anything but nerfs AGAIN.

[JocelynAwakens]

I empathize! It's important to note that while it did what we were aiming for, it also had unintended side effects that prevented it from going live.

I hope this is a troll, because Pyramid Head has never been anywhere close to bottom tier. Even if he didn't have the torment mechanic, he would still be pretty decent, by virtue of his anti-looping power alone. He's hard to play, but he is not anything resembling "bad," let alone bottom tier. He consistently ranks somewhere around A tier on the tier lists of most people who are good at this game. I can't imagine anyone thinking that he's worse than B tier, at the VERY least.
