I like how half of the replies don't even address the main arguments I've made for why lightburn on wraith or lightborn needs a change. We just focus on nurse and spirit and ignore the pain point of this thread. The point is this is NOT how things should be. Lightburn on any part of his body should not stun for longer than decisive or a pallet. Enduring does nothing to this stun. Lightborn does nothing for this. There's nothing to stop this mechanic or mitigate it. You just have to accept it and play around a kryptonite like weakness that renders your power more of a liability in chase than something that would actually help you.
Sure you can argue that stealth killers are supposed to sneak up on you. But the thing you forget about is that other stealth killers actually get a benefit from sneaking up on survivors in the form of the exposed status effect or lunge from stealth. Wraith gets nothing but the potential for a grab. Which is very rare.
Why should wraith have a crippling weakness while the top killers like nurse spirit and blight have none? And other stealth killers have 1 shot potential while wraith does not?
Think about how things SHOULD be rather than try to justify how things are.

Wraith needs 2 things.
1. Remove the lightburn mechanic or at least make the perk lightborn counter it. (Seriously it makes no sense for a killer to have to run, hide and dodge survivors the way survivors dodge deathslinger or huntress. Also why does he get punished so hard for using his power and having a flashlight pointed at his body not even his face?? The stun is longer than decisive strike does that seem right??)
2. Revert the lunge distance nerf. Wraith had one thing going for him. Speed. That's all. Other REAL stealth killers get a payoff from stalking their prey in the form of 1 shot potential and the exposed status effect. Wraith has no such advantage. So for all this talk of him being the hunter tracker killer what's the point when it plays out as a very basic M1 killer that can't even use his power because of flashlights and lightburn mechanic. So if speed is the only thing he has and he doesn't even have access to it if flashlights are in play or you kick a blast mined gen even WITH lightborn perk, what does he have left? Nothing. It's like playing without a power honestly.
