Yes, she needs a nerf because she is clearly overpowered

    Like many people a lot smarter than me have said the issue with spirit isn’t anything on her side. Sure stridor spirit is annoying but it is what it is. The issue with spirit is how little there is for the survivors to work with since there’s no realistically consistent visual or audio cues she’s using her power In a chase

    Aight I may have over reacted and voted for needs a big nerf, when all she really needs is more counterplay or some sort of nerf to her power.

    One idea that I've always liked is she cant hear survivors grunts of pain, but other noises (such as footsteps) are louder while phasing, and maybe if that's not enough she could become base 115? After all one of her biggest problems right now, isnt only that survivors dont know where she is, but Spirit always knows where you are if you're good.

    She is the killer that is most need of a nerf. Since all you have to is guess vs her unless you are running spine chill.

    Not my idea. When she phases have her cast a dim shadow on the ground that reveals her location. This would give her counterplay that rewards attentive survivors while keeping her strength relatively the same. Also set her hearing to a permanent number not affected by any perks when she's phasing that way stridor doesn't do ######### all. The reason I really love this idea is because it would give spirit a much more ghostly and paranormal feel which I really want for her because she is a spirit so I think this change would fit rather well.
