Skull Merchants feedback (just make her drones work like biopods).
While i appreciate that you dont try to kill her outright, these movement speed changes are a bit nonsensical, simpy remove all of it at this point because in order to activate the haste you have to slow yourself down now.
I appreciate that you try to make Skull Merchant more interactive and less fire and forget type Killer, however i have a suggestion to rework her till the major rework in the meantime:
- Remove scan lines completely
- Skull Merchant can now enter her drones like Singularity and tag survivors the same way.
After that, we can simply buff/nerf her afterwards based on the claw trap effects. Plus it'd be nice to see feedback if people would enjoy manually controlled drones more, which could lean into a future rework to make her better and more popular for both sides.

No.
Giving Merchant an objectively worse version of Singularity's power not only is insulting to Singularity and its players, but would be just plain lazy on the devs part.
Only in reality we already have Killers that are downgrades from another (Bubba and Myers) and no one cares, no one feels insulted. Its a them problem anyway, lets just not try to test something new because some people who weren't asked don't feel insulted over an insult that doesn't exist.
skull merchant is going keep disconnects. lots of disconnects because they revert her nerfs. survivor will still struggle to play against her → teammate will d/c → reddit ama will ask, is there anything you can to fix disconnects?". So the circle goes around.
So im suggesting something new.
I like it to be honest, but regardless what her power is, she will always be hated. I just hope they don’t rework her and put more recources into this killer, because it won’t change anything how people view her.
