My opinion on the spirit changes as a survivor main
The changes all seem fairly reasonable, I’m just gonna miss her having collision, if you were able to react fast enough you could stun her at pallets easily if she bumped into you so I think it wasn’t really needed.
Prayer beads bracelet doesn’t seem very good now imo, swf players will be able to communicate if they’re being chased so while they hear the whooshing, they’ll know to leave gens. Solo survivors can do this to an extent with the obsession mechanic and perks like bond/empathy/aftercare.
The changes overall are pretty good though. :)

with no collision I feel like it's gonna be easier to back track your steps

The changes by far not really a big nerf, more like a balancing. It gives survivors more counterplays but still doesn't make her weaker! So it's not completely a bad changes! I like it!
I'm glad they changed Prayer Beads lol

It doesn’t come without some bonuses of course but it’ll also be easier to block off a pallet/window as you can phase through a survivor, I think a lot of spirits will use speed add ons more now to make bypassing survivors easier.

No collision also means being able to cut off survivors from pallets, so its more of a buff for people who didn't depend on it.

This was something I was thinking about as well.
I kinda feel like no collision gives her less counter play but the vault animation gives her a little more.
*pokes*

i think this is not even a nerf for spirit without the collision. let me explain
when the survivor is at a pallet and she throw it down and you as spirit are still phasing you could just phase through the pallet now and hit her

Depends on what situition. A lot of Spirit players who is not decent enough rely on collision to find the survivor instead of relying on the sound, so the collision remove is more like a 50/50.

You won’t be able to phase through dropped pallets.
It does normally help me at least once in a match but regardless I’ll just have to adapt to the change.
