Dredge is surprisingly fun and balanced. Needs one fix though

All major issues from ptb have been fixed and Dredge is actually fun to play and go against. He is quite strong when used in smart way, but also can be countered (and it's not super hard either) if you play smart as survivor. I really like it.

The thing I dislike though is fact that even during nightfall, survivors can see him from far away (especially on Earie of Crows, he doesn't glow, but he sticks out from the darkness from a far).

I also dislike the fact that survivors immediately know it's Dredge, cause of the locks... But it's unfixable I guess.


Yet again, his perks annouce themselves with little icons... I do hate this. Back in my day you actually had to use brain as survivor to know what was going on, now you have everything served on silver platter. But as far as killer goes, he is surprisingly well made and balanced. Good job.

    Being able to see Dredge from further away is an absolute must. Just like being able to hear him from further away. He has great map pressure, and a decent anti-loop ability. Nightfall also makes his teleport even stronger, and can make it harder for survivors to navigate, especially in chases, when they try to find another loop.

    He doesn't need good stealth on top of that, because then I do think he would be a bit overpowered, if he could just run up to survivors very easily and get free hits against them.
