I had an idea for awhile now and I want to share it

Temporary invisibility:

Ringing the bell twice and cancelling cloaking would activate it

It would act like going into cloak (with the wooshing audio cue to know e cloak)

It last for three seconds.

For each seconds it transition to invisible to shimmer then back to visibility.

It has a cool down of 30 second or 15 second if successfully hitting the survivor whilst it active.

This will help wraith in chase and could punish the survivors of they don't pay attention to him.

There another change but I don't know if it a good idea are not so I'll put it at the bottom so it doesn't confuse people

Wraith snarl are reduce by 75& whilst footsteps are increase 75% (tell me if this is a good idea or bad)

    Wraith needs no further buffs. A permanent 160 killer that can burst up to 172.5 and that comes with near perfect invis really shouldn't get boosted too much further. He should be weak in chase and loop, because his first hit is almost impossible to avoid.

    This won't make him op. Just give him better uses other then the hit and run. Also this doesn't change him overall like the buff but give him another tool he can use.

    Also he 150% movement speed not 160%

    Freddy is still better then wraith even after the nerf. Having good mobility and have good chase (which is still good when the nerf comes) really make an impact while having good stealth and mobility like wraith only get him so far.

    This change might help him he enjoyable to chase as well encourage people who play wraith to chase the survivor instead of using the hit and run tactic.

    Wraith is literally old Wraith, the counterplay is still the same. And he gets up to 150% mms killer while cloaked btw. He needs buffs if anything since he is still weak.

    It will absolutely make him OP since he's in a strong spot, and you're suggesting a very substantial buff to the one part of him that's supposed to be weak, to off-set the fact that he has permanent 150% movespeed and gets a massive boost of speed when he comes out of invis.

    You can't have a 150 killer that's also good in chases and loops.

    He's a 115% killer.

    He's only 150% when he's cloak.

    also being weak in chase will often mean the killer can't create much pressure. All killers should have some thought of chase potential if it possible and if their ability require to have so little chase would have to give them some sort of ability that could snowball if done rigt. But wraith can't snowball as much even with the hit and run tactic.

    So I made a secondary ability to give him some sort of chase outside of cloak. His burst of speed may help in getting the first hit but once the survivors play it safe and evade his hits. He can't do much

    But do you not realise how much weight that persistent 150% movespeed has?

    He's as mobile as the Demogorgon, and that guy has nothing else in his kit other than a long lunge. No invis, no uncloak speed boost, nothing.

    He got his shred which is quite good in chase, better then wraith burst of speed.

    And his portal is really good at catching people of guard of place somewhere that the survivor won't notice whilst being better at mobility because The portal to in a straight line which is seconds more faster then a faith if he were to travel to The same distance as The portals

    The difference between wraith and demo is that wraith can't mindgame with his power while demo can and that demo portal goes in a straight line and wraith as to move around object to get to the same distance has the portal which will be slower.
