What if killers had a passive ability?
So ive been thinking lately that if killers had a passive ability it could add more depth and more uniqe gameplay every game and things to look out for or similar. unsure what each killer would have but its interesting to think about.
tbf trapper and oni already have a passive. spawn traps on the ground and make survivors drop blood orbs so unsure how it would work
any ideas?
Comments
Some have passives that are good or bad
Clown: Vaulting makes a loud noise
Demo: Everthing he does makes noise
Huntress has her lullaby
spirit has her passive phasing
Plague has her incense burner that gives her away
More unique passives would be cool though
How would GhostFace or Myers work out?
The only idea I have for myers is that whenever he's stalking you for a long period of time, you start to hear the music that played in the beginning of the Halloween chapter trailer. It would only activate after he's stalked you for a while, though.
Remember when doctor had a passive ability that passively raised madness of survivors in his terror radius then they decided that was too good and nerfed it? Good times.
Ghostface's passive: All the survivors have cell phones in their pockets and they ring from time to time, alerting the killer (like Doctor's screams inflicting madness)
Or Freddy's sleep.
myers already has one with his moderately increased faster vaulting speed when in evil within 3
I would say let them phase through breakable walls while using their power
I guess nerf is the wrong word, he's definitely stronger now but with madness being his whole focus the passive madness stacks were a really unique aspect.
I am pretty sure that they removed the passive Madness because it was confusing for new Survivors. You are hiding and suddenly you scream. With the Static Blast you have an indication why you are screaming.
Would be cool but it would need to be extremely balanced to work, and you know we are talking about DbD...
Don't forget Deathslinger with his built in Monitor&Abuse 👀
Him and oni have that yeah
Legion: Give a unique chase/ feral frenzy theme: watch Mr. Envy for example. And gain 2.5%/5%/7.5/10% movement speed boost for each survivor you hit while in feral frenzy and you lose 0.5 seconds on your feral frenzy fatigue for each successful hit (max hits = 2 second cooldown instead of 4, and 1 second cooldown from three would make Legion even better).
Wraith: passively hear bells in the distance that sound similar to Wraith's bell but not exactly the same just to mess with survivors while they're doing gens so kinda like bell clapper and hear deathly whispers when with 5 meters from a cloaked Wraith (again just to scare players that their time has come).
Clown: Hear an accordion as his terror radius
Billy: INTENSE BANJO NOISES and he says "You've yee'th yer last haw!" whenever he chainsaws someone.
