Shadow nerfs on Wesker?

So I have been playing him a little since last patch. I alreaady found 3 interactions that make him much weaker then right before this patch. So the question is - was it intended shadow nerfs for wesker?

1, you can't hit someone when he is already vaulting for some time - you will bounce from him (so no hit in the window) - before this patch you were able to actually grab him back before the window (that was bug)

2, if you are right behind survivor and try to charge your ability - if the survivor starts to vault, your ability will not trigger until vault finished - so no grab (at start of window animation) and no hit

3, if you just vault a window with you ability - it used to work like that survivor could not vault back until wesker moves. Right now survivors are vaulting back at me (meaning it looks like survivor is loosing collision now).

Were these changes intended? Was it a silent way how to nerf Wesker? Because sincirely - I am not a fan of these changes (and I am 100% sure it wasn't the case last patch).

    The 6.4 patch changed vaulting with several shadow nerfs.


    One nerf was that any killer with a power that modifies their vault speed cannot benefit from any perk that modifies vault speed.

    Example : Legion, T3 MM and Wesker cannot use Bamboozle anymore to vault faster.


    That nerf was aimed at Wesker but massively hurts the other two killers.
