Dev update - Onryo

So this is from dev update:


Projection

When The Onryo is Demanifested, she can Project herself to any powered TV around the map. This would inflict nearby Survivors with a stack of Condemned in the process. We have made significant changes to this mechanic:

  • Projecting to a TV now applies ¾ of a stack of Condemned to all Survivors not carrying a Cursed Tape (was 1 stack to nearby Survivors).
  • The time a TV is disabled after The Onryo Projects to it has been reduced to 70 seconds (was 100 seconds). This can be further reduced using Add-ons.
  • The time a TV is disabled after a Survivor removes the Cursed Tape has been increased to 90 seconds (was 60 seconds).
  • Projection now has a 15 second cooldown. Since there is no longer a range limit on the Condemned effect, we need to limit how frequently this can happen.

Combined, these changes make it much easier to spread Condemned while using your Power in a way that feels natural.

Cursed Tapes

Cursed Tapes have become more dangerous as well. Though holding a Cursed Tape may protect you from the Condemned effect when The Onryo teleports, they come with their own risks:

  • Getting hit with a Basic Attack while carrying a Cursed Tape will apply one stack of Condemned.
  • When a Survivor carrying a Cursed Tape is hooked, all other Survivors gain one stack of Condemned and the Tape is destroyed.
  • Holding a Cursed Tape no longer passively builds Condemned.
  • Cursed Tapes can now be placed in any TV other than the one they were retrieved from.


Is it me or you just want to have tape in your hand all the time?

Then her teleportation doesn't do anything to you.

You only get 1 stack per hit, or when someone gets hooked. You can easily play around those two triggers and just deliver tape to any tv when you get near Mori status.

I will need to test it for sure, but I am either missing something or this will result in Sadako being same/worse...

Comments

  • The main thing is survivors now have to interact with her power. Basekit Sadako on live, there's little reason for survivors to interact with TVs, because the cooldown is shorter than her teleport and there's not much threat of being fully condemned.

    You need 7 stacks, while holding tape you completely ignore her teleportation.

    Unless you will get focused by Onryo to tunnel you out, you are unlikely to get even near that.

    What might work is full slugging tho. It depends if you get a stack for getting downed too.

    If you get stack only when you get injured then it's really bad...

    I don't think you read what I wrote.

    I said the changes force survivors to have to interact with her power (take tapes), because ON LIVE basekit Sadako has no threat of condemning survivors until the gens are already done.
