Should Spirits passive be changed?
Many players from streamers to casual players myself included can find the spirit frustrating to face at times. And its not even due to her power in my opinion, although many dont like her power i find it just to be the ultimate mind game power at times and dont find it frustrating to face. What i do find frustrating however is her passive phase, the Spirits passive causes her to shift while moving even during chase which results in basically her appearing to teleport or lag several feet forward which many times results in a hit due to the player just not being able to track her due to the mechanic of her power. Its frustrating and just feels bad to be in a chase and have what appears to be lag thats not even a mechanical skill happen during the chase and have you go down due to thinking you have more distance then you thought, even removing any mind game around corners not being able to see her stain while doing her passive. In my opinion Spirits passive needs to be changed for its just not fun to experience during a chase. But whats the forums opinion?

It should be changed.
It's too free and removes some skillful interaction between killer and survivor. If Spirit could have it as a secondary ability on a cooldown, I'd be for it.
The current main power is so much more prevalent than the passive phase though.

Yeah, Spirit is really annoying in general and needs to be changed

i just find her passive frustrating tbh, i dont think she needs a full rework but i do think a slight one is in order

i agree and the power idea could be interesting, perhaps cause a slight glow on her before she does it so a survivor can counter it or cause a slightly different phase noise

And i think her power is stronger but not more frustrating to fight.

Can you drop this fox news nonsense and just speak for yourself?

This is how you form a question to create a discussion. If i was being Fox news ide just be ranting and saying borderline slander

I hate her passive. It makes me BIG confused.
"Oh she's going lef, OH NVM"

No, my point is how fox news makes claims by saying "some people say" and what they really mean is "I say" but when you say "some people" it seems like a general concensus and more like a fact then an opinion, it enforces your claim as truth.
You do the same with: "Many players from streamers to casual players" and "although many dont like her power".
Just speak for yourself.

Dude: "myself included" " "in my opinion" "many dont like her power i find it just to be the ultimate mind game power at times and dont find it frustrating to face" "What i do find frustrating however is her passive phase" "In my opinion Spirits passive needs to be changed for its just not fun to experience during a chase" Every single one of these quotes is me saying that i myself think this therefor speaking for MYSELF. Just because literally the first sentence is stating a fact, or observation made that MANY streamers and players dont like facing Spirit it doesnt mean ones not expressing their own opinion. It is just making a observation, hell i even said in the post that they find it frustrating to face her power and basically think its bs, however i said i disagreed with it and then stated my direct thoughts that her PASSIVE was the issue. If you bothered to read more then just the opening statement you would have realized that. Instead you just said nah im done and labeled it as a garbage news station.

I 100% agree... The Spirit makes this game so much less fun... My least favorite experiences in DBD all include her... And just 1 time a face camping basement Bubba...lol
0 -
I mean tbh i just dont like fighting Doctor. Hes the most frustrating to me. But as much as i like Bubba getting face camped by the basement king is never good lol

The passive could be removed and Spirit would still perform the exact same.
She doesn't need it while she has the 2nd most powerful power in the game.

I did read that....and I have no problem with that, hence it wasnt mentioned or focused on.
I said what i have a problem with, imagine making a spelling error in the first sentence, someone pointing it out and you getting defensive thinking you need a counter argument and thus stating its not a problem because there are no spelling errors in the rest of the post......

imagine needing to comment on a opening sentence rather then give any input on the topic
0 -
the topic itself sadly does not really interest me, I have no issue with the way spirit works.
However your way of making it seem like some general consensus does, you are not the only one doing this btw, not by a long shot and ill point it out every time I see it with every forum user.
1 -
You had to click the topic to see the sentence in the first place? So that means you had some interest in it. If not then dont click the topic. And i never said it was a general consensus i said "many players" because many players DO in fact find it frustrating, i among them.

They're one of the forum trolls, I'd take what they say with a grain of salt because you might be getting baited.

@ALostPuppy ah thank you for telling me.
