An idea for the Wraith windstorm change.

The problem with the windstorm change is that uncloaking during the chase loses to much distance for it to work, you'd only make up the distance you lost.

Here is an idea to complement the Windstorm idea:

Once the chase begins, cloaking as the Wraith gives the ability to gain "hunt" similar to gaining Evil as Myers without or minimal slowdown. The better your "hunt" is the higher your uncloaking-movement speed is, capped at 90-100%.

This would allow Wraith to pressure survivors and create mindgames with them.

    I mean uncloaking during a chase right now isn't terrible, Windstorm would just help it a bit.

    In most cases you gain as much as you lose, and he is the only stealth Killer without second ability. Myers can go full assault mode with higher stats and instadowns out of nothing if stacked, Pig can dash and use RBTs.

    Shape's the only good stealth Killer. Pig is garbage as #########, RBTs are just RNG and the ambush is useless.

    But I do think built-in Windstorm will help him. Right now, they fixed it this patch where you do not make noise uncloaking til you ring the bell, so I think it'll be a great addition. I never use cloak in chase except to catch up anyways.

    Im not talking about the stealthy uncloak because my proposed change shouldn't apply outside a chase cause it'd be entirely overkill and offer to little counterplay for survivors who aren't being chased and work on gens or something like that.
