So...no changes for the Trickster?

I was hoping that they would add something for the Killer, a small buff for main event, because, they wouldn't leave the weakest killer like this after giving him a very small buff. But nope, I guess that we are going to wait a while, maybe even months or even longer to get buffs or a rework.

Shame because The Trickster can be fun to play, but there is too much that needs to be fixed to be a reliable killer.

    The Trickster received some changes in the last patch, it's too soon to say if there will be other changes made.

    Think the dev said 2 months? on stream, how long they'll wait to then see what they'll do with him.

    The general timeframe for a new Killer to be re-evaluated balance-wise is during the mid-chapter update of the next Killer. We recently got balance changes for Trickster, so even if they end up not being enough, I would not bet on the devs making further balance changes to the Trickster until then.

    Yeah, I know how they tend to buff and revise Killers. My argument is that they should not wait to buff Trickster anyway, because he is still isn’t in a good state, and even just giving him small stuff would help a lot in making him less frustrating to play.

    The trapper needs a buff more than the trickster does right now.

    I'm not against giving him another buff sooner than later.

    The anniversary is around may 25th-28th, the killer is usually released like 2-3 weeks after which is like June 15-22. The earlier you can expect to see trickster change if any is August/October.

    Weak killers like Weakster usually take a long time to get changed. Wraith was released in 2016 as part of original 3 killers. It took him 3 years to get invisibility for open maps and windstorm base-kit and now he is quite decent. Trickster could take 1 year or could take 3 years before he becomes decent. In the mean time, you get to play beta version of him.
