A suggestion for completely reworking Sweater Boi
Freddy has been the worst killer in the game for a while now, he's quite the joke considering it takes 7 seconds to even interact with a survivor, and a simple skillcheck wakes them right back up, so therefore I have a suggestion on how to potentially fix him
Power: Dream Demon
Hold M2 to channel your power on one survivor at a time, slowly pulling them deeper into the dreamworld
While channeling Freddy has a 30% slower movement speed (85%)
Stage 1: Awake
all survivors start awake
Freddy cannot interact with survivors while they're awake
Survivors can pull others out of stage 3: asleep by performing a wake up action
Stage 2: Drowsy
After channeling your power for 10 seconds, the channeled survivor enters stage 2
Survivors cannot get out of stage 2
Survivors can now see Freddy
Freddy can interact with survivors
Freddy's lullabye is replace with a 24m terror radius
Survivors can pull others out of stage 3: asleep by performing a wake up action
Stage 3: Asleep
After channeling your power for 10 seconds, the channeled survivor enters stage 3
Survivors can get out of stage 3 and back into stage 2 by doing the following actions:
Failing a skillcheck of any kind, exception to Self Care, Overcharge and DS
another survivor performing the wake up action on them.
being hooked
Freddy's terror radius is 16m to all survivors in stage 3
Freddy can down survivors in stage 3 in one hit
Freddy can see survivor's aura if they are in stage 3 and outside his terror radius
Survivors suffer a 50% penalty to action speed
Add-on changes:
Class photo only applies when channeling survivors in stage 1
Pill bottle either makes Freddy invisible if you are not in his terror radius or gets an M&A effect of 8m reduced TR
The "block" add-ons makes channeling time shorter.
The range add-ons are the same
Add-ons increasing his speed after sleeping now increase movement speed while channeling
I feel like these changes could make Freddy stronger and perhaps elevate him to the mid-tier
Please let me know what you think of all these changes and if you think something is UP/OP, please tell me!
Comments
The immediate thing that jumps out to me here is that it feels far, far too similar to Myers.
True, the design was indeed designed to be Myers, but more personalized. The numbers aren't finalized either so if you have any changes or ideas please tell me
