Trickster Rework concept idea:
Trickster Rework idea:
Main event:
No longer takes 8 hits to activate.
New mechanic: Excitement. Trickster gains excitement every time he hits a survivor with his blades. Excitement has limit of 10 stacks. Each blade does 2 Laceration meter worth of damage. Each blade thrown decreases Excitement by -1. When trickster has no excitement, he is unable to fire main event blades.
If trickster is out of chase for 15 seconds, his excitement is automatically refilled to full.
Showstopper blades:
->No longer deal laceration damage.
->Laceration no longer decays
->Every time trickster lands a blade, he refills 1 excitement.
->Has infinity ammo
Control scheme. Hold m2 to lift blades, press control(Secondary power) to spin your blade for 0.5 second to go into main event blades.

The goal of the rework:
To make trickster more lethal in short-time bursts while retaining a muti-hit play-style but punish the player for missing blades for the killer player.
This makes survivor dodging more rewarding but more punishing if the survivor does not initially dodge the first 10 blades of his main event. if survivor dodges his first 10 blades, the killer has to land showstopper blades(regular m2) to regain his main event blades to down the survivor.
This concept idea and not a fully fleshed out. The concept is attempting to make trickster's lore more accurate where he becomes more "Happy" as he murders his victims.
