Kill Switch update: We have temporarily disabled The Legion due to an issue that allows for infinite power spam. The Legion will be re-enabled once this issue is fixed.

Changes I Would Like to See For The Ghoul

1. The killer shouldn't see the display of the teeth icon on survivors until they have used their first leap.

  • This would help new players understand that the first leap doesn't deal damage, and it would also help players not waste the first leap when they want to attach themselves to the environment.

2. Decrease the size of the teeth's icon hitbox

  • Far too often, the hit box is WAY TOO BIG and is extremely generous, I think it needs to be toned down. With a smaller hitbox, players will be more capable of attaching to the environment when they want to and not accidentally attack when they don't want to, because they're already injured and it will remove the feeling of some crazy hits.

3. Damaging the Survivor with Kagune Leap Attack should not go through walls. Instead, the ghoul must be visible close, as if the survivor and the ghoul are touching. If you want to include kagune hits at windows and pallets, make it so he vaults and deals damage with his kagune. If he can be damaged while vaulting, make the period of time unable to move just slightly longer. (With this change, instead of seeing the teeth icon to attack when they're on the other side of an obstacle, the icon shows the grapling to surface icon.

  • It can feel really unreasonable to get damage through a wall or on the other side of an obstacle. This change would make the injury feel more reasonable, while still giving the power the ability to damage windows and pallets with a slight downside compared to a normal kagune attack.

Overall, the ghoul is one of the most fun killers in the game to play as, I don't want the ghoul to feel clunky or slow. His power just needs to feel a bit more natural with some quality life updates and bug fixes.

Feel free to share your thoughts on what changes should happen to the ghoul. Remember to be respectful and be the change in the world you want to see. Have a great day, and thank you for your time. 🙏

    If the cooldown and countdown are adjusted carelessly, it could end up becoming Good Guy ver. 2.
    I think this adjustment proposal is great.

    I'd change some of his add-ons like the yamori mask and the umbrella too (second one in particular), but I agree! I'd rather see devs giving him an higher skill floor than making him worse.

    He is pretty fun to play against and as, and I don't want that to change ^^
