Quick Fix: Wraith

Attached are some ideas of how to improve Wraith, namely its perks and addons, as currently it lacks in the fun department once you start playing against higher ranked survivors (At least in my short three week experience with the game). With the perks I simply attempted to make them less of pure tracking abilities that give no actual bonus mechanics to the player and change them into tracking and hunting abilities combined. I'm unsure who actually uses any of the three perks over other perks in the game but at the moment they seem rather garbage (Well, except I use the FoV perk because otherwise I feel sort of claustrophobic with the default FoV).

My goal for the addons was a sort of "class" system, as currently the addons are somewhat set up to be that way but fall short/don't extend passed a certain point. For Survivors this will create an atmosphere of familiarity when fighting a Wraith as you'll know what type it is after first encountering it. I also attempted to make each addon worthwhile to take rather than super niche while removing addons that served little or no purpose to the Wraith's play style.

Edit: I updated the values on some of the stuff now that I have a better grasp on gameplay.

    One other small thing, maybe make the Wraith more invisible but make his snarl louder? As I've said elsewhere, as Wraith people can see me easily, they can see me easier than they can see Pig, it's kind of laughable that Wraith is supposed to be a stealth based Killer when people can spot him so easily =.="
