    20 second cool down is a joke .... im sorry but her power makes her the weakest by far. and dont come giving me the crap of "mind games" in a chase she can barely catch up. great job on making the weakest killer their is by far minus freddy. probably only good thing about her is her perks ....

    sadly most of us was saying this in the PTB feedback area. alas we was told they didn't need/want feedback on the killers power as that was pretty much a done deal. I am a survivor main and she needed the ability to see auras while phase walking in the PTB. seeing blood while in phase walk should have been part of her base kit. she should be able to enter her phase walk while moving around. most important of all she has a power meter she should be able to use her power at any time if there is sufficient power in the meter to do as the killer desires. not have to wait for it to fill completely to use her power again. these are the very things i a Survivor main wanted to see happen to the new killer in the PTB testing but nope these changes would have made her viable in all ranks and put her right between billy and the huntress in power.

    I've played against her some today, as her some today, and watched multiple streamers do the same and this is the first killer to ever be released that wasn't a slaughter machine on day 1. This is the strongest she will ever be as survivors have not yet adapted to her yet and she's still lucky to 2k or 3k in a match with highly experienced killer mains.

    In a week or two, once people have grinded her perks into their general pool, she'll be in the dumpster with The Clown.

    The Clown is actually a good killer. Better than most. He's unpopular because of how unimaginative he is and because you may as well just play Huntress if you want to throw things.

    oh, incidentally; I've just been playing as survivor and have had two Spirits disconnect in consecutive games after being looped to high heaven...
    Food for thought...

    cant say im surprised with 110 movement speed lol. plus her power without addons having to cooldown for 20 seconds. i wont even subject myself to the frustration thats to come with using such a slow none viable killer. its sad really she could be better not just looking as good as they designed her. what use is that if they dont give her buffs to be viable ....

    I really struggle with her power during a chase, but she's fantastic for moving around the map.

    The sarcasm is real right here , if anyone gets looped using spirit on its first day release are just terrible at playing killer and should go back to playing with braindead trapper .
    "braindead trapper"
    what did he mean by this?

    cooldown is fine, just dont use her full duration at once.

    and what if im in a chase. cooldown is not fine at all. so im not supposed to use it then? she is addon dependent she will only be a noob stomper.

    you just need time to learn her playstyle, plus i just 4k'd with her at rank 3 so clearly she isnt a noob stomper

    Played quite a few matches with her in my SWF group and Solo. If played like Billy her map pressure is unbelievable! 👌👍❤️

    As a survivor it is super challenging if she's played this way. Chases end quickly so stealth is key and personally I love it. I'm more of a stealth player though...

    Its hard to say, but I spent a lot more time with her today than I did on the PTB, at Rank 3, and after a few hours I am starting to see her potential. After a while hearing where survivors are during phasing is starting to get easier, and with the right add ons (But you could argue most killers need some add-ons to be viable anyway.) You can defintley use her power in chases effectivley. This might change as survivors get better at juking her, but right now small pallet loops, any corridor structure. (Seriously, she makes the pale rose a dream rather than a nightmare.) All places where she can pretty much garuntee a hit and to end a chase. The cooldown isnt as big a deal as it only takes 20 seconds if you use it all, and you only need 2 or 3 seconds to close distance in a chase.

    Only thing is the activation speed should be a little quicker, as the charge speed add ons are almost necessary to use her in chases.

    The cooldown is a bit long, I would like 15 seconds. Though I’m not 100% sure they should do anything.

    I’ve played 3 matches as her and 3 against her. Victories all around. 3+ sacrifices as her each time, 3 escapes and no deaths.

    She's been out for less then a couple hours......Git gud 
    Assuming a killer's power on one game isn't the best way to go about this @dannyfrog87!

    Try to play 10 games with her at ranks 5 & lower then you can make your opinion.

    Don't mind me, I'm still chuckling at the survivors that keep running into my arms thinking I'm a husk

    Her power is more forgiving if you mess up than Nurse, in exchange she is less powerful than Nurse. However she is extremely potent when the Killer player is good at predicting the Survivors moves. 

    As a Nurse Main, this is second nature to me. Moreso because I play on PS4 and Nurse on PS4 is far more about predictions of where Survivors will be, and not where they are as you have to compensate for FPS drops, more limited control, and possible lag.

    This is just from a few matches I played as her at Rank 6. 

    Her mind game potential is massive at Pallets, but highly limited because of the cooldown on her power. You kind of have to pick and choose. Either try to get the sneak attack hit with her power, or Pallet mind game with it. Not both. Which is highly limiting her strength as a Killer because you kind of need both... at least in my opinion.

    I have played her on rank one and so far I am enjoying her. I have played between maybe 8-12 matches with her yesterday and about 15ish matches on ptb I think she can be really good with the right player using her.

    I was able to 3k-4k most matches yesterday with her with not too much trouble my only advice is not to use the full duration of her spirit form every time sometimes just the boost in distance in the chase is enough to confirm a hit.
    I find at pallets the less time in the spirit form the better its less time to react and survivors make more mistakes even by just seeing the husk freak out I have survivors literally crawl over to me.

    (also just something I noticed I tried unrelenting on her and I noticed in hatch stand offs if you miss a swing and they try jump she recovers quick enough to pull them out idk if that is for every killer but I will try on my mains in the near future!

    As I said before (during the ptb) - only 3 full uses of her power without add-ons equal one full solo gen. That is some bullshit imo.

    I had few spirits RQ too yesterday after some good amount of looping.

    My first game with her I got the adept achievement and I’m averaging 3k a game. But I am sure it’s due to the fact that she is new and the servivors don’t know how to play against her at the moment.
