How to make The Plague more fun for both sides.

Hey, I think we can all agree that Plague has basically no power. (other than being a glorified m1 killer) Survivors never cleanse (and for a good reason) which leads to Plague being straight up boring to play as, and unfortunately quite weak aswell while also annoying survivors (cuz noone likes being broken) ...

The solution I came up with tries to fix both problems without changing her core mechanics too much.

As it stands now, infected survivors vomit randomly and the vomit itself is nothing but a visual effect, I suggest making the vomit occur periodically rather than randomly (that is, every 6 or so seconds) and it interrupting all survivor actions. This would make it so survivors have a big incentive to cleanse. Additionally, after cleansing the survivor would become completely immune to Plague's infections for 60 seconds (This would eliminate the frustration of cleansing only to get infected again 3 seconds later).

With these changes, Adiris would have plenty of occasions to use her Corrupt Purge, too many in fact, that's why I'd make it so whenever The Plauge injures a survivor with her Corrupt Purge, 10 seconds get substracted from the Corrupt Purge timer. This would eliminate more frustration and again, encourage survivors to cleanse more.

Let me know what you think of these changes ! I think they'd make her way more fun for both sides than she is now.

    She's basically a perma T3 Myers without the extra lunge.
