And what do u think bhvr should buff in their kit?

For slinger i think they should make him a 4.6 and make his aiming quicker and his projectile quicker too also faster reloading.

For ghostie i'd say drop leg knife sheat should be basekit also make him faster in nightshroud when he isn't in anyones line of sight by 10%? And when a survivor is downed or on hook increase the reveal time. Bhvr could also increase his lunge distance since he doesnt have any anti loop.

Tho maybe not all of these but most of it for sure could be added in their basekit.

    I don‘t agree with slinger becoming 4.6. 4.4 killers are encouraged to use their power more and we saw how it went with trickster. When they would increase slingers speed he would also require nerfs, which you probably don‘t want.

    For ghosty mainly want quality of live to his leaning and that you don‘t lose your power by injuring people.

    Is something that would need to be tested. I can‘t say how that would turn out.

    I don't think Deathslinger needs big buffs at the minute. He's not crazy powerful but he is in a solid state. Not against buffs, but they need to be well-considered.

    I don't agree with making him 115%, I feel like continuing to lower the number of 110 Killers in the game damages the identities of characters. And faster ADS does risk damaging Survivor counterplay. Faster projectile speed risks throwing off years of muscle memory for his mains, and faster reloads just rewards bad Slingers.

    Slinger's traversal is awful, and that's the main thing holding him back. I do wonder if future Perks could partially solve this problem, but in absence of that, maybe something resembling a basekit Furtive Chase/2-stack Devour Hope, a Haste status after hooking Survivors? Theme it around something like the morale boost helping with his bad leg.

    Oh, and he should be able to ADS without having a round loaded. It wouldn't even make him any stronger, but the ability to bluff with an empty gun has high yeehaw potential.
