Please reconsider about Ghost Face changes

in 8.4.0 PTB Feedback
  1. Is Ghost Face truly a killer in need of a nerf (through add-on) even alongside a slight buff that reduces Night Shroud by 3 seconds and marking time by 0.5 seconds? Would he be overpowered just by reducing these cool downs? Just asking :(
  2. While the buff is appreciated (it really is. Thanks to the devs that kept trying), allowing players to try new strategies by making the common add-ons part of his base kit, the effectiveness remains limited.
  3. Against more experienced players, particularly those communicating on a call, Ghost Face’s reliance on stealth becomes a significant drawback. His abilities depend on remaining undetected, yet he’s often quickly revealed by coordinating survivors. Even AI bots.
  4. Again, adjustments to his cooldown and marking time, while helpful, does not adequately address his primary weaknesses. At all. What I’m seeing here in the PTB discussion is that most players feel the same as me - that these minor changes do little to bring him in line with other killers who have more versatile or direct chase abilities, leaving him dependent on specific add-ons just to remain viable.
  5. I really think that further rebalancing is necessary, to ensure that GF is competitive without add-on reliance, aligning his strengths with those of his colleagues.

    This is yet more of the same discussion the PTB talks have shown, and BHVR at this point will have to address it. There's been more than enough begging and outcry; if they don't do it now they will have to come back to him in the next several patches and keep adjusting him.

    Ball's in their court now, they have to do more. This won't fix his killrates OR bring him in line with his peers, and this won't be enough to make him useful at upper levels. BHVR needs to do more than this.

    Hes going to get even lower on kil rates due to shoulder the burden.
