Best Of

At the moment, ghostface is very lacking in both map pressure and individual chase potential, so I've been thinking about a change that could alleviate that by a lot:

• When shroud is active, ghostface moves at 5.2m/s(or 4.6 when crouching).

This may sound silly but hear me out.

• Shroud Is an ability with a relatively punishing cooldown.
• You can be taken out of it by survivors stunning you, you missing OR succeeding attacks, or even survivors looking at you.

These factors would allow for a faster shroud ghostface to not feel overly oppressive, while still giving him good map mobility and ambush potential.

They would also help the GF in feeling elusive and popping out of unexpected places, more effectively stalking and skulking about the survivors.

Furthermore, they would insentivise playing stealthily, as stalking players is the best way to prevent them from spotting you out of your power, and allows you to spend your one usable stab to actually down them, instead of spending your entire speed boost for a single injury.

EDIT: from seeing the comments on how these changes may not be quite enough to apply sufficient pressure in high level play, I've devised a few extra changes to compliment the first batch.

• Spotting the ghostface has distance dependent speed. From current speed at 8 meters up to 1/3s the current speed at 24 meters, making the Ghostface more difficult to take out of power at range.
• A successful basic attack on a marked survivor will not remove the night shroud, rewarding playing for marks and focusing on downing your targets.
• Marked survivors cannot gain the endurance status effect for the duration of the mark, making it a much more dangerous condition.

All in all, these changes would focus on helping Ghostface against otherwise unavoidable perks like dead hard, and make not getting marked a much more important aspect of counterplay.
