Unknown - Feedback
I feel like survivors shouldn't be able to cleanse so quickly. It feels entirely too fast before I can get my next shot in.
Also why is the cooldown so long for teleporting when dredge can do it up to 3 times with a 8 second cool down?
It should be quicker for unknown too.
Just my thoughts.

I agree. The UVX feels weak because Unknown has a 7 seconds cooldown and needs one second to charge his power which means at many loops, he has only 2 seconds to make a quick decision or otherwise that's it. Survivors have also a lingering of 1.xx seconds when losing line of sight for a moment. In my opinion, they should reduce the cooldown of his power to 6 seconds and increase the weakened to 12seconds. This would make it much fairer for both sides and smoother for Unknown because he has to hit a survivor twice and there should be slightly bigger time window for it. The Projectile should move faster too because at middle and long range it is so easy to dodge - yes a dodge should be possible but slightly more difficult. I really love Unknown and his UVX have a big skill floor and feel extremly satisfying but it is really tight compared to Artist's birds which can hit you directly and move faster.
He should also get more Addons that work around his UVX like giving him a 0.5 bigger Blast Area, aura reading when injuring with UVX, or apply Sloppy when damaging a survivor. Many of his Hallucination Addons feel so useless, bad, or situational.
Also why is the cooldown so long for teleporting when dredge can do it up to 3 times with a 8 second cool down?
Dredge has a 10 seconds cool - 8 seconds with the Otamarin Writhing Addon. The main difference is that Dredge's power is for both mobility and antiloop while Unknown's Hallucinations are for mobility. Yes, they are also great chasetools but the main idea is mobility (from the dev pov). Dredge's teleport is also map dependent while Unknown has more control over it. However, I wish they would reduce the cooldown to 20 seconds (and Dredge's cooldown to 8 seconds) because that feels fairer. Blight's power has a max. cooldown of 10 seconds and has much more lethality and better mobility than Unknowns.

your asking for more common sense buffs for killer. unknown is balanced for people that don't look behind them. he's completely useless vs good players. the funny part is people like tru3 was saying this killer is A-tier. top 5 killer. like what level was he playing vs to conclude that? /shrug.
i still think weaken state should do more than just be drawback for unknown.
