Trickster buff when?

I actually underestimated how unfun the trickster would be to play.

His power is so weak that camping is CONSISTENTLY a better option than actually going out and attempting a chase with slow movement speed and a non-lethal power.

I felt like I could at least have fun with his power a little, but every survivor I've played against knows to hug the nearest structure with a window to become immune to the power.

I thought the reports of how weak he was were hyperbolic, but I don't think there has been another killer this weak upon release in the time I've been playing the game.

The buffs need to come sooner than later- if they aren't going to do anything interesting to his power they need to bump him up to normal movement speed ASAP. Hell even with a bump to his power there is no justification for how slow he is.

    Yeah,i don't get it either.

    Played a few matches with him and was constantly asking myself.

    "Why would i ever play this guy instead of Huntress,Plague or Deathslinger?"

    Also,the recoil and spread is the worst thing ever and makes hitting with the knives incredibly hard on console

    Every game is basically:

    -Going to try and get value out of his power

    -Oh no 2 gens are done better just M1 to end this chase

    -Oh no I'm being looped on a Z wall because I'm so slow

    - guess I'll camp since by the time I head to a gen it'll be done?


    I made a post with a couple of changes when I saw him originally, but I think I might've undershot the things I was suggesting.

    I objected to people requesting the laceration be permanent at the time, can't help but agree it makes total sense now.

    Yea it's an incredibly inconsistent power. You really have to focus and try hard if you want a remote chance. I find him fun but I don't find losing every match because his power is so weak fun.

    They’ve ignored all feedback from 3 weeks ago. This is their vision for how he should be.

    What kind of survivors do the developers come up against? I mean how on earth did they think this killer would be fine after the total failure of the twins? I just don't think the devs care anymore and are actually trying to kill their own game. Because this just doesn't make any sense to me.

    My vision is I will never buy him. Not even for shards. They don't deserve my money.
