Can we get some buffs/fixes for other stealth killers such as Freddy and Onryo? For freddy they can simply revert one or two of the nerfs he got a while back.

    Michael Myers needs some help before anyone else tbh but I will agree that Freddy and Sadako also need help.

    Twins are next, but some other stealth killers should definitely be up on the workbench next for sure. Myers first, in my opinion, and then something for Freddy - though I don't know that his stealth is necessarily something they should be leaning into, I think there are other directions to go for him.

    Onryo can probably stand to wait a little longer, in my opinion. She's newer, and she's doing fine, just a little undertuned. Killers with actually drastically weak kits should probably go first, especially ones who've had issues for longer than she's been in the game.

    the killer i see the least are doctor and clown, i'd really like to see those guys more often. but yeah, 70% of the killers need some slight buffs or tweaks

    Most all the stealth killers are quite undertuned. Especially given how gutted they are by the CoH meta and completely countered by just a Spine Chill. Spine Chills shear existence means no matter what they do they'll never be top tier killers.

    Myers: buff/slight rework.

    Onryo:

    1. when you demanifest within 16m of a condemned survivor, that survivor should be heavily hindered (15-30%) for a number of seconds equal to their condemnation level.
    2. after demanifesting, if you hit a survivor while still flickering they gain a level of condemned.

    Freddy: should be the hallucination king. Addons should be a toychest of unique hallucinations and misc perception altering details.

    I think Myers is the killer that needs a look at most urgently. He's the only killer with a hard cap on how many times you can use his power and, uh, that's not good.
