Changing some of wraith add-ons

Since wraith got buffed, he not as add-on dependent anymore so I wanted to change some of his add-on that i think don't do as much.

blink:

ringing the bell twice temporally cloaks for 2/3/4 second and has a cool down of 30 seconds, you can still hit the survivor whilst the affect is active.

windstorm:

increase the duration of the burst of speed for 0.5/0.10/0.15 seconds and missing a surprise attack will have an increase duration of 0.10/0.20/0.30 seconds

the wrath (replacing the hound):

automatically cloak when a successful surprise score event occur.

blind warrior:

has a 0.20/0.40 seconds delay on the transition out of cloak.

i wanted to make add-ons that affect him outside of cloak to make him more interesting to play for both sides.

would like to have some feedback on it.

    I hope you forgot the decimal places for Windstorm because 15 seconds of that speed boost would genuinely give me anxiety

    The only addons from wraith I want gone is that aura reading and silent bell addon. The rest are fine I think.

    i fix it.

    thought people would know i meant 0.15 but i may be wrong

    i agree that the add-ons are fine but it doesn't make wraith more enjoyable and some of his add-ons don't help him as much (blink, blind warrior, and the hound) i disagree that all seeing blood and the coxcomb clapper should be remove as all seeing is fine and doesn't change much in game play, only being most effective where survivors that are hiding near him and coxcomb clapper isn't powerful by itself and if by itself only help by giving no indication to where he is to the survivors

    No I had a feeling you were wrong I just had to double check cause honestly I've seen more outrageous suggestions

    i would't suggest something that stupid. i want to make add-ons that are fun but not unfair.

    I actually already made something like this for all of the weaker addons.

    lemme know what you think

    I think that Wraith went from great, solid character to OP. His bell shouldn't be silent (which in my games it seems to be on a random basis, unless it's something that the killer can control) and he certainly shouldn't be able to read auras. The guy can already zoom around the map at top speed while ######### invisible, that's not powerful enough?

    All I know is that my Wraith games used to feel fair on both sides. Now I face him constantly and everyone loses because he knows right where everyone is and just flies up to them, silently uncloaks, and hits them. Rinse, wash, repeat. Where's the counterplay?

    Blink, windstorm and blind warrior are bad in my opinon.

    Windstorm new affect aren't great and would affect the game as much especially blood

    Blink should be completely change to be a worthwhile add-ons

    Blind warrior should also be change to be better add-ons even tho white is a good add-on, I don't think keeping it has now it is would be great as there could be a better add-on for wraith.

    The swift hunt changes are great I like them.

    The shadow dance changes could really help wraith if the survivor drops the pallet when he came out of cloak so I like the change.

    I Do know where you were going with those changes but I think completely changing them would be for the better (except the two I liked)

    There is counter play, you just need to be aware of where he is and try to gain as much distant from him. You can use vault and fall loops to either gain distant or waste his time.

    If the wraith is good, he might be able to block the window and know if the survivors is worth chasing. He in a good state right now but his add-ons need some changes to them to help wraith in other areas in which he ain't great in (chase).

    The only thing that people have said that is optimal on wraith is the hit and run tactic which I don't like. Which I is ironic considering I made an add-on (the wrath) that could encourages that playstyle and help it but it also help wraith to play aggressively on 1v1 situation (hitting with a surprise attack and being automatically cloak to be able to position yourself quickly after the first hit).
