The Pig is the result of a brilliant crossover between Dead by Daylight and SAW. Inspired by Amanda Young, the Pig sets off into Dead by Daylight, thirsty for blood.
What would a horror game like Dead by Daylight be without one of the most popular horror movie franchises having its own licensed killer and survivor?
Behaviour created the Pig by taking inspiration from Amanda Young, the main antagonist from the popular movie SAW and her unique ability is the head trap that rips the survivor's head into two pieces if the timer runs out.
Those who choose to play the Pig should focus their whole play on the head traps and putting a lot of pressure on the survivors so they have to choose between generator progress or their lives.
Perk Loadout
Deadlock
Whenever a generator is completed, The entity blocks the Generator with the most progression for 30 seconds. The blocked Generator is revealed to the killer in white during this time.
This gives the Pig an idea of where the survivors were and where they might be going so she can easily sneak over to the survivors without too much detection. Deadlock pairs nicely with Thinkerer and if the killer plays their cards right, Deadlock won't activate that often.
Save the Best for Last
Save the Best for Last is the Shape's unique perk and it plays around the obsession. Whenever the killer hits a survivor that is not the obsession, they gain 1 token, capping at 8. Every token gives you a 5% cooldown reduction, hitting the obsessions decreases the token number by 4/3/2 based on the level of the perk. Sacrificing the obsession deactivates the perk.
This perk synergises with the Pig due to her power being a charged slash that would not trigger the token reduction, giving her an infinite cooldown reduction.
Altchar
Thinkerer
Whenever a generator is repaired to 70%, the killer benefits from the following effects: the generator gives the killer a loud notification, revealing its location and grants the killer the undetectable status effect for the next 16 seconds.
Thinkerer additionally hides the pig from the survivors, making her fully open to executing all the sneak attacks there are. If she was to fail the sneak attacks, Deadlock will activate anyway, giving her a chance to recover and pressure the next progressed generator.
No Way Out
Once the exit gates have been powered No Way Out activates and any survivor that interacts with an exit gate switch will trigger a loud noise that will notify the killer and the gates will be blocked off for 12 seconds per stack. Stacks are gained from hooking survivors.
After the last generator has been completed, ideally the pig should want to have at least one survivor with a head trap on and then aggressively play around them till their trap goes off or they go down.
Add-ons
The ideal add-ons for the Pig are Tampered Timer (Trap goes off 20 seconds sooner) and Workshop Grease (Ambush charge speed increased and cooldown decreased).
