Wraith getting stunned with flashlights is still a thing?

This has been like this since release, maybe change it now?

since nobody plays him anymore, well maybe the 2 people who main him

shining a flashlight at him should reveal him not stun or maybe just short stun

or i dunno just change the poor guy in general, old killers need some love too


and don't come at me with the BROKEN bs, let's be honest wraith isn't even close to balanced or broken the guy is weak and only thing keeping him playable are his add-ons and his speed burst after decloaking

  • I've seen it done probably 5 times ever.

  • Yes wraith against a 4 man swf with flashlights is a living hell

  • i'm low mmr, so ain't nobody stunning my wraith

    they do try it, but in a year or so playing this game, I got stunned only once and it happened cause I didn't believe the survivor would pull it off, so I went for it.

    I don't see this as a problem

    Wraith is a killer made for beginners he's just there to get people into the game with an easy ability, the devs have stated this multiple times that some killers are just beginner friendly killers in the hopes that once you get used to it you move on to one with a harder skill cap and better power, wraith can still be good with the right build and add ONS but not good enough to handle a highly skilled genrushing squad who can run tiles correctly and negate his power and if you find yourself at that level it's probably time to switch up your killer unless you're fine with taking the L when those squads come along.

    They should really remove the stun and just reveal him. No stun necessary... Going against 4man SWF with flashlights makes you want to uninstall...

  • I feel like lightburn should just be removed, it's such an outdated feature.

    Wraith will only get slightly less miserable without it around and Nurse mostly doesn't care about it anyways.

    But then you would be essentially wanting the survivors to flashlight blind you so you come out of cloak faster without the ringing animation is the only issue with that, if I'm not mistaken he used to have an add on that made him more resistant to flashlights, they should bring that back or make it if it's never been a thing so that way you can have the survivors trying to burn you but it takes longer and you'll more than likely get them before they can achieve it.

    That's fine. Is he not the only Killer that is overly susceptible to a specific item now? Kinda dumb.

  • Lightburn is still a thing

    That's why I said Lightburn (the mechanic), not Lightborn (the Perk)

    A good team with flashlights can body a hag. Nurse is also subject to light burn (good luck hitting it though).

    Exactly. I have never once seen Nurse hit by it. xD Hag traps is debatable. I just feel like Wraith shouldn't be stunned by it. That's all. He kind of feels like old old Trapper did where his Bear Traps could be sabotaged with a toolbox lol.
