Can I still do this trick with Spirit?
Hello, all! I apologize if this question sounds dumb, but I need to make sure so I don't look stupid in future matches haha
Straight to the point: Recently I got back into Spirit after bingeplaying Trickster and I've noticed that survivors no longer fall for my "standing still" trick. It worked a lot of times before her rework but now it just looks like I'm standing there for no reason and I look like an idiot lol.
I've yet to play against a Spirit ever since her rework [take a shot every time I say rework...sorry] so I can't really tell if they made survivors able to tell or not.
Am I still able to do it? Or am I just chilling in place for no specific reason?
Thanks in advance!! Any help is appreciated. I'll still attempt to play her for her awesome chase music and cosmetics, but it'll be less fun without my favourite trick </3

since the rework, survivors get a wooshing sound if the Spirit phasewalks nearby them. So no, just standing still is pretty much not a good strategy and it needs more effort to mindgame now (eg start a phase and immediately stop it or something)

Aww :( I can see why they made it hard to do now, though. She actually needs skill, which I like. Maybe I'll give her new addons a try?
Thank you for the help!!

Oh she has some really powerful addons now, one lets you see the killer instinct of nearby survs when phasing.
She is still very unique and creative but requires more skill instead of pure luck in many cases, its one of the better reworks BHVR has released

I agree. Beforehand sitting still in the middle of a loop succeeded most of the time [especially in Zubatlel's videos haha], I like that I have to work for it now.
I'll check out that addon ASAP, thanks for informing me!

Oh also look out for the Spirit guide that @TheGannMan is currently creating (I think they haven’t posted it yet). They are a very experienced Spirit player (and general Spirit enthusiast).
the guide should be posted here:

As long as the survivors are paying any bit of attention, it won’t work anymore. It’s not something to rely on anyway, you will definitely want to get comfortable using her ability more, which will help you in the long run. If you have any other questions you have about Spirit, feel free to ask me, as I play her a lot.

It’s getting done a little slower than I’d like. I’m trying to find time to work on it, but it’s difficult with school, streaming DBD, and being with family and friends. I wouldn’t expect it to be out for a bit, but I promise that I will get it done at some point.

Well some things here are unnecesary.
Cut out the family and friends so you can make the spirit guide for meaningless internet validation.

Very reasonable take, @TheGannMan !
Also who even needs school and good grades when you can get some DbD forum upvotes with that guide??
