Wraith's rework

Why did Wraith get a rework he never needed one he was fine the way he was.
The blur thing wasn't even a problem it could have been see as a way to not make him so powerful ever kill has a counter.
Trapper you can see his traps and disarm them running doesn't show the prompt to disarm but that's what makes it good to face him be careful.
Old Wraith you could see where he was if you looked closely but he was still hard to see and he made a noise when cloaked so he wasn't overpowered.
Hillbilly he could charge at you hiding behind objects or lockers helped.
Nurse running to her or going behind big obstacles to help with blinks.
The list goes on every killer has a counter but not a big one to ruining the fun of the killer but not seem overpowered to survivors.
The one rework i've seen that was good with Hillbilly and Leatherface mainly Leather since he could constantly chainsaw but with Wraith he's overpowered and hard to face since the rework i've never eacaped him if i play as him every survivor has no chance of escaping.

Ok we found someone who clearly never played with the wraith before his buffs or just want wraith to go back to F tier so they can bully him more.

Old Wraith was addon reliant just for him to be viable. The rework makes Him interesting to go against.

Oooh boy.
I don't even want to begin.
Wraith was the very definition of "Add-on Reliant" to be anywhere near viable in higher ranks.
I'd argue he is almost as bad as Trapper in terms of needing Add-ons to work well.
His rework is fine. It's not even a rework, it's just a couple of buffs that makes him less reliant on add-ons as a whole and not a pain to play.

He didn't get a rework... Just an add-on pass.

Wraith does have a counter, it's the same counter Michael and GF have, and it's this little known thing called "awareness" Something the general playerbase seems to lack. That's his whole deal, getthing the drop on you while he's invis, which should never be a problem unless you're in the open with NOTHING to work with, or behind a wall, where every killer of his type excels in general. If you run into Wraith that much, which I highly doubt, put on Sprint Burst and stop complaining about an otherwise fine killer.

honestly I have to agree I'm forced to mindgame loops against this killer like what the ######### is this intended? yikes devs, revert wraith and bring back old legion and revert prayer beads already smh

Wraith's base kit is pretty great now, but honestly the All Seeing addons are a little too overpowering.

I know you'll get a bunch of forum-killer hate for saying this but I do actually agree with you. Wraith is such a low skill killer that he didn't deserve a buff. He was a solid "C" tier killer and that is perfectly fine. Now he's an "S" tier killer that needs nerfs.

He never got any rework, just a couple addons were made basekit over the period of 5 years to finally make mim - a mid tier killer.
Also ever heard of flashlights or flashbangs ? And you think he's overpowered ?
Please, just learn to abuse windows against his cloak and heal a couple times per match and he's got almost nothing to pressure the whole team.

"Killer Hate"
Okay buddy.

Wraith, at the very least, NEEDED the invisibility buff.

No Old Wraith was an awful F tier killer. He needed these buffs and I hate facing Wraith.

Old Wraith was an F tier killer.

What? Wraith is B tier. He's not even close to S tier.

He was definitely not an F tier. He was very add on reliant but he's not F tier.

So I’m guessing you just got destroyed against a Wraith and because of that you want him nerfed. Seems about right.

No he was F tier. Super add-on reliant to still not great affect. Obliterated on open maps. Had nothing to help him at loops. Devoured by Exhaustion perks and Healing perks and Med-Kits. Weak mobility. And a okay hit and run at best.

Every time a killer complains about being "bullied," a survivor gets a purple flashlight out of the bloodweb.

Yeah i'd agree with that but anybody saying he was fine before his buffs are nuts

In what way shape or form is wraith on the level of spirit, nurse, blight, or hell even hag. He has many counters, he just now has an actual chance against even somewhat decent teams unlike before. I'd definitely argue some of his addons need a nerf, all-seeing in both variants in particular as well as his silent bell, but his base kit and most of his addons are great where they are.

I've escaped him plenty of times

wraith was a complete addon addict. He needed to go to rework rehab because it was basically impossible to utilize his basekit. Now hes addon complementary instead, making it so his gameplay can be enhanced with addons rather than necessitating them
