Spirit Nerf idea

Could we PLEASE remove collision while spirit is phase walking??? seems like it would be only fair since shes already the second strongest killer and is only countered by iron will which isnt beneficial to run unless you know you're going against a spirit which you have no way of knowing

    you are not allowed to have an opinion if you think shes "blind" any good player including myself will never not get a free hit on an injured survivor when you phase walk. i can see how you say this without any ears though

    Who's considered the strongest killer? Billy? Seems to me Spirit is the most lethal and OP when playing in the higher ranks. We can never seem to get more than 2, maybe 3 gens if we're lucky, done. If they're running Prayer Beads or Yakuyoke Amulet (or both) with Ruin and BBQ it's game over, we can't even get 1 gen, LOL. She whips through the map like nothing and can even pick you off of a gen without warning.

    Prayer beads needs a nerf, not her power in general. If someone takes the time to learn her and gets good with her, they deserve the kills. She was not easy to master.

    This idea will actually buff the good spirits and make them even more OP.. because basically they can now race the survivor to the pallet or window and bodyblock it to get a free hit.

    Blind as hell? do you even play her?

    She can see scratchmarks, hear footsteps and see the grass moving.

    It also opens up opportunities for survivors to do more ballsy plays if she can't just walk into them while invisible.

    Whats so hard to master? the so called ¨mastermind prediction¨ ? you can ######### your prediction and try again and again, she is so fast that you can afford to make tons of mistakes.

    They should just nerf prayer beads because certain builds with it like gen grab spirit is hella annoying to go against as a solo player because its hard to win against it without coms

    Spirit is okay, look on grass and you will se where she is. You can hear her footsteps - next ocunterplay. Look on her glass - will start shine when she is in phase. Look on her hair - will reset when she is in phase. Use Iron Will (very good perk against everykiller). She is easy to counterplay.

    So easy that she is a Top 3 killer, will see your scratch marks Iron Will or not, and if you look grass, she can she you there too.

    Why is it that survivors seem to think Spirit needs a nerf? Because she can deal with a four stack survive with friends? People act as if she doesn't have any counter play. Iron will is a good perk against basically every killer...not just spirit. Against a good nurse, probably useless.

    Nerf viable killer, because survivors are entitled to win with no skill or whatsoever?

    How about no.

    Spirit is hard to play, but rewarding.

    If you see her phase walking, play around it, run away, crouch somewhere etc.

    The collisions are not the problem, it's the sounds.

    Players with good ears, high volume will always have extreme advantages.

    Spirit is not "hard to play" in the slightest. there's nothing hard about being invisible and lightning fast against naturally slow survivors. You have so much mobility you can pressure the entire map almost as much as billy. Spirit is a killer for brain dead players who want make so many mistakes through out the game and still want to be rewarded for it as killer. There's a reason people don't play nurse but DO play spirit, because her (spirit) skill ceiling is so low and she's so easy to play she's basically a starter killer for noobs. With nurse, you actually have to practice to be good at her without a ton of blinks. With spirit, you just phase and have at least a double digit IQ and you will always catch someone.

    most killers are viable if you stop playing brain dead cookie cutter reddit builds and despite what people cry about all day, SWF are easily beaten (which is why they're playing SWF, each individual player sucks) People will constantly claim leatherface is bad, but have you ever played him correctly with PWYF? He's easily top 5. but bad killers just want an excuse for their poor choices, like tunneling a single survivor for 4 gens because they get tilted by pallet stuns.

    I am okay with collision but I would rather spirit just show grass movement while phasing.

    -Iron will is SUPER beneficial against any killer.
