give him something to be a more exciting killer, his stealth is bad and pointless and he's really frustrating and boring to go against. too many people pick him and a whole roster of activity compared

    I think he doesn't need anything extra, he is in a good spot, I agree that the hit and run playstyles can be a bit annoying, but not worth changing a whole killer imo.

    What do you exactly want to do with him?

    He has been the bing bong fella for a long time, and I don't see a reason for changes.

    I would like to see another killer like Wraith but that would require Predator as a 3rd party killer. He could have a limited cloak, Killer instinct like effect and some movement tech.,

    Wraith is in a fine spot. He is a free and simple character which means new players have an easier time to get into "how to play killer (the basics)". If you give him something special or complex, this could increase his skill floor which means new killer players have no easy to pick up killer anymore. I also think even the more experience players enjoy these type of simple killers. On the other hand, since he is a simple killer, beginner survivors have an easier time too. Beyond that, even though he is a simple killer, is not a weak one. He is an average killer that can deal with every type of player.

    The only thing he could get are some QoL changes like slightly faster uncloak and speed - make these addons half basekit. But I am kinda afraid that when the developers change Wraith, they could give him a visual heartbeat.

    What do you mean his stealth is bad? He has some of the best stealth in the game. The noise he makes isn't THAT loud.

    Only change Wraith really needs is some more interesting addons, the cloak speed addons are bad (not the uncloak ones though) and we don't need 3 addons each for uncloak speed and cloaked movement speed, 1 or 2 is enough. MAYBE give him 5% faster uncloaking basekit, though I'm unsure if that's necessary or not. Other than that he is in a really fine spot as is.
