Onryo buff suggestions.

Welcome to another episode of me posting on forum that goes into Void under more "popular" topics.

Well (hehe), let's get into the topic.


Increase the multiplier of movement speed when Manifesting from x0.8 to x0.9.

Currently the Onryo slows herself down a lot when Manifesting which results in her losing distance to Survivor. The change would allow her to be better positioned against Survivor without losing as much distance as before.

Decrease Demanifestation cancellation cool-down from 1.25s to 0.5s.

In comparison to other Killers, it doesn't make sense for her to have such a big cool-down when cancelling her power. Other Killers have more "threatening" power than hers so it's understandable they have such a cool-down but in Sadako's case in doesn't make much sense. Which is why it's reduced here.

Decrease the time it takes to gain Condemned stack from 25s to 24s.

1s buff. That's all I will allow for it. Also, fun reference if someone gets it.

Increase the Undetectable duration after Projecting from TV from 1s to 3s.

Current iteration doesn't allow for any "Teleport from a bit further away and get them from unexpected angle" because the 1s Undetectable and 1.5s to Demanifest don't allow for stealthy/interesting plays.Because of this change the next one...

Well Water change: "Increases the duration of Undetectable by 2 seconds after Demanifesting. Increases the duration of Undectable by 1 second after Projecting from TV." (was "Increases the duration of Undetectable by 2 seconds when Manifesting by any means.")

Yeah, taken notes for it.


Not sure but more add-on revisits if necessary.


That's all what I've thought for. She isn't badly executed at all, she just needs to be smoothed up in gameplay a bit. Not every Killer has to be S-Tier and do same thing everyone else does. Waiting for feedback! See ya!

    Is that a joke about 24 hours and 7 days?

    Decent changes, the cancelling buff is nice. It's pretty annoying when you need to cancel and forget about the cooldown and can't hit a survivor in your face

    Seems pretty alright, her base flickering after manifesting should probably get looked at as well. w/o newspaper its borderline impossible to get any real value out of it.

    Regarding addons: A lot of them are honestly really lacking. The aforementioned newspaper should probably just be base kit and then be reworked to do something else. I wouldn't mind seeing the same happen to mother's mirror but that one is more debatable. Outside of those:

    Video tape copy: I know this is a meme point farming addon but if plague, legion and demo can have an interesting take on these so can Sadako.

    Well stone: Numbers are too lacking for it to be worth running imo, 6 seconds barely ever matter and survivors essentially never turn off tvs anyways.

    Clump of hair: would be better if it reduced the lullaby range with it, just a bit lacking.

    Well water: Super whatever tbh, even with these buffs i would probably never run it, Sadako is simply too loud of a killer(referring to her manifesting and teleporting sound cues) to make use of lingering undetectable and tvs are usually too spread out to make use of interesting ambush angles.

    Mother's comb: really mediocre information tool, generally speaking, if survivors decide to turn a tv off its usually near a gen so if you notice one holding a tape you can just check which gen doesn't have a turned on tv next to it. Should be turned into a brown to make room for something more interesting, or just be reworked entirely.

    Tape editing deck: I don't think this addon has ever done anything for me. generally survivors just get rid of their tape b4 tvs even turn on, so outside of wasting a tiny bit of time in the early game it just feels pointless.

    Distorted photo: This feels like it should be a green or yellow meme addon but somehow its a purple. outside of very niche scenarios to find someone this is also essentially pointless.

    Remote Control: its leprose lichen but bad.
