115

No slowdown while throwing knives.

Main Event can be activated at any point once it is fully charged. (you can wait to use it until you have a good opportunity).

With these changes, Trickster will be about Legion, Ghost Face, Myers, Pig, Demo power level, which isn’t crazy but is at least playable.

    I wouldn’t mind seeing an increase to laceration if you land knives over 24m. So maybe something like 2-3 shot total assuming the distance is greater than 24m. Gives the option and incentive to go for semi Hail Mary tosses.

    Those all sound good, plus a massive increase to the time after which the laceration meter begins to decay.

    I'd rather use 115% movement speed as last resort buff as nothing is more boring than making more 115% M1 killer which he would need to be to warrant ranged damaging power.

    i want his knifes to be more accurate tbh.

    just unloded on a guy who was sneaking around the edges of the map and besides turning everything around him into a cactus he never came into contact with my blades (yeah i was like two tiles away)


    give me accuracy and make him 4.6 m/s (115% mms) and we got a base to build an actual killer on!

    Pyramid Head is 115 and his power is light years ahead of Trickster

    either remove the slow down or make him run at normal speed because no sense to make him slow when his knives are that weak

    Why not both

    plague doesn't get a reduction in speed when she uses corrupt purge

    honestly... removing the decay on the blades would do wonders for him

    My way to make trickster playable is the following:

    1. I do agree a speed boost to a 115% is decent.
    2. the lacerations don’t decay. To deal with this as survivor; you will have medical stations to heal, & to remove the laceration completely.
    3. i agree with your main event idea.
    4. ricocheting blades should be base kit, so he lives up to his name: the trickster.
    5. addendum 1: make the trickster a lower blade count to injure or down a player during main event.

    With these changes I think the trickster would be fun to play.
