New killer Idea: The Morpher

kuehl

Imagine a killer that could change it's appearance to look like a survivor.It wouldnt be able to do harm while morphed, but would be able to approach any survivor without triggering the heart.

I think this killer would change the way people play the game, because until now you could trust any survivor as an ally.

What you guys think?

Edit: Adding more content

Weapon: He could morph his arm into a blade, like the T-1000 does on Terminator 2.

We can go a bit further with his morphing nature. He could morph into a object of the scenario, like a chest or even a engine, grabbing the survivor as it tries to interact with it

Salt with friends.

4 people in a party on voice chat. They can work out who is real and who is fake easily.

Not true, SWF groups have to confirm each other constantly. And unless they're moving in a group of 4 constantly you'll have at least a little leeway.

Also if moving as a group is going to be a good counter to the killer then putting out a way for force the survivors to separate or things get bad is a way to nullify grouping. You gotta think with your psychopathic brain for a bit, its possible.

If they killer had another power than yeah, could have a morpher killer. Morphing cant be it alone. Due to to the way devs balance the game, there's gonna be some transition before killer can attack. And some sign, think of how they handle stealth killers. The warning and swf means that killer needs a tool and a power, like the pig.

I posted an idea about a multi power like that in another thread, its possible, the killer would just have to use more than M1 and M2 to play the game.

I think her power should be a multi power similar to pig.

Power
Bloody Tags: After injuring a survivor absorb their blood with M2 into your entity infused spray can for 120 seconds, you can spray yourself with this can to take on the appearance of the person who's blood you've captured using the action button (E or whatever that is).
While taking on this appearance your movement speed is reduced to 100% and your terror radius is reduced to 0, you may also use the ctrl button to crouch, crouched movement speed is set to urban evasion levels of 100%. Holding shift will allow you to sprint at normal survivor speeds, and you may also perform vaults over pallets and windows while in this form.
By pressing M2 in front of a generator while in this form you can act as though you are working on a generator. If a survivor is working on a generator while you are are on the same generator it will stop progression on the gen. If a survivor performs a skillcheck on a gen that you are on the skillcheck automatically fails and regresses the gen by an additional 5%
Attacks performed while crouching lead into a lunge at 150% movespeed. If you attack while masked as another survivor the paint will immediately be removed from your body removing all stealth and the ability to crouch. (so Use M1 to decloak basically) You may not kick gens while cloaked as a survivor.

After absorbing the blood of an injured survivor you may use M2 to place a tag on the ground or any surfaces. This tag reveals the auras of all survivors within a 15m radius, You are limited to 4 tags.

While outside of body paint mode you perform as a normal killer, 115% movespeed 28m terror radius, M1 to stab things.

There, now thats a spicy killer.

Perks, I dunno, but some gen control perks? Maybe some hex protection stuff? Dunno, perks are another deal entirely.

I actually HATE all those ideas about killer mimicking survivor.
They are all useless, since SWF would break it anyway.

Go go power rangers!

Sorry to say it but I survived with friends group would just destroy that killer. It's been said a thousand times so I guess I'll give the same example.

Player 1: Hey John is that you coming toward me"
Player 2: nope
Player 1 * takes off running*

DeadByFlashlight

SWF kills that idea

Its a shame, but it is what it is
