Yet Another Spirit Post

Rivyn Rivyn
in General Discussions

Seems to be the trend lately. Thought it would be over with her last nerf, but I guess not.

I had a bit of an idea about 'balancing' her. I keep seeing posts about survivors not having enough information when facing her. Why not allow her husk to trail her? Not actual movement, just blips to her phased self's position a second or two behind, or even a set distance. If she moved twenty meters, her husk blinks 16 meters. Something to that effect.

This would give survivors the general idea of where she is, maybe even use the facing to predict where she was going. She'd be a little easier at loops, since her husk would nearly always be present. Which is why I was thinking it shows up two or three seconds where she last was, so survivors would still need to think ahead for where she's going. Spirit would also be able to use it as another mind game, if chosen.

Again, just a thought. Whether viable, or workable, is beyond me. But her husk is there, why not use it in some fashion?

    So SWF's can abuse that as well.... Not really for it or against it... it's difficult to say really

    @RaSavage42 To be fair, SWF abuse everything. It's why they're broken. I was just trying to think of a way to doesn't follow BHVR's latest trend of 'slap cooldowns and power usage' on everything.

    But Spirit already has that

    adding a Husk that stares at her Phase walking is too much IMO...

    just leave her alone

    There's issues elsewhere

    @RaSavage42 We thought the same with Billy, and they just nerfed him into the ground. Devs see the game through the brown ranks eyes, remember? It's easier to nerf the high end to suit the low end, than bring the low end up to the high end, after all. Spirit is going to get a hammer on her at some point, it's just a matter of time.

    I had an idea for a "flicker..her husk doing what her passive phasing does at the moment her phase begins..rewards attentive play but keeps her playstyle intact

    Won't work its also not needed u can already hear her walk in her phase (similar to wraith when cloaked) u can always look at the environment too for moving grass or crowns flying away. Spirit is fine as she is survivors need to just get used to it and move on, its a 4v1 game with 20 killers most of which are just m1, ppl have the right to play what they like and that doesn't mean it should be nerfed into the ground just cuz they don't wanna use their brain on loops
