Alright you beautiful bastards. What do you think this next Killers ability is going to be. This is going to be interesting.
I put 1000 shards on him having a split personality with powers that allow him to switch between each of them. I know it's vague but that's what this is for

So place your bets

As you can see what the original post date and the edit date. A lot of us were pretty much wrong.
10000 iridescent shards was the pot.
Yep we really didn't think that they were actually going to give us a killer with such a fun but basic ability.
No shape shifting
No split personality disorder

Just another male killer with a basic ability

    Isn't the killer rumored to come out tomorrow on the PTB? Crap I said another rumor lol.

    Here's my prediction, the killer will be a kidnapper. He will throw a chain to you and slowly pull you to him for a injection. Once you're in his grasp, the survivor will struggle for a certain amount of time before the survivor gets overwhelmed and gets injected with the blight. Now the survivor will suffer terrible side effects and will need to find the antidote or something.

    It's just a guess in my opinion.

    You guys are being way too vague. None of those answers would count as anything beyond partial credit.

    I'm going for The Wendigo (original killer) just to add another reasonable option. Likely a mad man with a knife though.

    Lockers have mirrors and you use them to switch personalities.

    AshleyWB Member Posts: 4,061
    Lockers would take too long to be used as a feasable mechanic imo. Maybe each gen represents a stance.
  • EnviouSLAY

    I'm leaning towards he puts on different masks for different powerups; one for stealth so hes quiet like a stalking myers, one to go faster, ect ect. Or maybe his powers grow as he gets kills and when its down to one survivor he has a built in mori? That would be interesting.

    My guess is a "stance" Killer, somewhat as Enviouslay described. He experimented with the Hallowed Blight and the Entity claimed him once the corruption took hold. Perhaps the names with hash marks on the wall are Souls of empty Survivors he collected from the Void and integrated into himself? Each soul brought him a different method of channeling his power.....

    200 for an ability that changes and gets stronger every time he hits a survivor.

    Oh, your right.

    Anyone thinking it is a stance killer needs to be more specific. What do you think the stances do? How does the killer change between stances?

    780 for an emergency balance patch one minute after he gets released and 1000 separate discussions about how op he is

    5000 shards on something that's completely useless during a chase.

    I don't think he will different personalities to switch to. If it is the case. Then there will definitely be that one meta personality that everyone will go to use and that will get nerfed and then he becomes useless.

    I have feeling he will be similar to myers. As in his personalities are different tiers with stronger abilities. His face changes as his tier increases.

    Just 1 more day and we will know.

    I think he could have 4 different abilities/personalities that tier up as the trail progresses. Each time you hook a survivor up to 4 you’re personality grows stronger and changes.
