Opinions on the New Killer & Survivor
![[Deleted User]](/images/default-avatar.svg){kind=avatar}
The Spirit is not appealing as a killer to play look wise yet playing against her as a survivor is going to hurt your eyes since she appears distorted.This makes her hard to predict yet when she isn't not distorted she is easily predictable. Her short lung animation is really fast and the sword appears out of nowhere. if you blink, you'll miss it. Her long lung is easily avoided and animates before hitting. You can blink and still dodge her lung. The lung animation is not ridiculously fast like the short lung animation. Her haunt phase as a survivor can catch you off guard.Without add ons I was able to cover a long distance in 2 seconds. with add ons.it was so fast.. With certain add ons during the haunt phase she can be on you at the snap of a finger and if you are not paying attention, you;ll be caught off guard. Overall, her appearance is a huge eyesore and hopefully if she gets any cosmetics they will make her terrifying yet don't let her looks fool you. She is dangerous and will rekt you.
The Spirit perks are Spirit Fury, Hex; Haunted Ground, and Rancor.
Rancor is pretty much a poor man's bitter mumur and a cypres mori put together in one. Plus, the obsession can see you for 3-5 seconds. This perk is only going to be good for finishing mori dailies and when you do not have Bitter murmur or BBQ & Chili yet. This perk is trash.
Hex: Haunted Ground is good for protect the totem builds or if you want to extend the life of your Hex; Ruined better. The perk already needs a buff. The good thing about this perk if you catch the survivor then you're in luck because when a survivor destroys a trap totem they'll get the exposed status from 40-60 seconds yet the other trap totem will turn into a dull totem.. There's only two trap totems.. Please allow both trap totems on the map and do not make one become a regular dull totem after a trap totem is broken. This perk is a decent perk.
Spirit Fury is going to be strong as hell. At max rank when you break 2 pallets and the next one is thrown on you, the entity will auto break it over your head yet the stun will apply. IF YOU apply this with enduring You're going to be an absolute monster. This perk is going to be godly with the right builds.
The spirit's ability Yamaoka's Haunting is a balance killer ability that provides endless results.you can mind game with this ability by using your husk. With the right add ons you can be on top of survivors before they even blink and EVEN HEAR THE HEARTBEAT. I expect some her add ons that go so well with this ability may be reworked or nerfed.You go completely invisible. Her noise cue is not easy to point out neither.If you are not 100% focus you can miss it. With speed add ons and other add ons I think her ability becomes too strong. With speed add ons she can be on you faster than billy boy. Without add on, it's a balance ability with trade offs. One trade off is you cannot see survivors during the sprint, only their scratch marks are visible not BLOOD OR PHYSICAL FORM. The power also recharges. Her add ons are all useful for but Mother-Daughter Ring, that ######### is trash. It will only work against noobs and over confident swf.
The spirit mori animation is pretty funny. Please, devs.. release a gold club to replace her sword so I can fore on kids during this animation.. LMFAO.
Overall, the spirit is a love child between the wraith and nurse( Quote by a friend who tested with me "Peasant"), She will be your novice training into nurse gameplay and overall a balance killer but a bit strong with add ons. I predict her speed add ons will be changed/ nerf. One more request, please devs.. Change hex: Haunted ground to keep both trap totems up and not make one become a dull totem when a trap totem is destroyed.
Adam Francis came out of nowhere like an rko. First off, he's a black elementary school teacher with business man style school shooter outfit. His lore at best is average( the spirit lore is meh too) yet overall, I am a fan of the trench coat. He's here to spice up the game. also, the entity legit saved this guy from death. So if one of the entity rules for escaping the realm is " you appear back in the moment and time you were taken in" he's going to get smashed to death.
Adam Francis perks are Diversion, Deliverance( Squeal like a pig, EEEEEEEEEEE,eeeeeeeeeeeee), AND Autodidact.
Diversion is a stealth player's wet dream. If you are not in a chase for 45 seconds yet in the killer's radius, you get a pebble which at max rank you can throw for 20 meters! This pebble creates a notification for a killer. I have ran this perk in kyf and in random matches.if used right in a stealth build you'll trick the killer, prolong your death, or avoid your death and escape!. It is best to throw the pebbles at generators, vaults,lockers etc.This item late game can secure you the hatch.. you can also troll with it.. please, do not tell the killer were your homies are.. don't..stop.. I hope intentional doing this will result in harass punishments..
Deliverance( EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE)is gong to be that kobe perk that is going to abused by swf so hard.it's going to be combo with dead hard for sure.So if you rescue a friend in need and it is consider a safehook you have a 100% chance to unhook yourself during an escape attempt. This is going to be abused by swf so hard. it is a god send for us solo survivors tho since sometimes we get caught at the end or take one for the team.
Autodidact I am really unsure about this perk.I personally think it sucks yet when I read it and consider the combos with it.. I just don't know how to feel about it... Is it cancer, is garbage?i'll you decide.
Special thanks to Peasant & HostileHeather for helping me test with and against the new killer.it was a blast!
