Onryo Invisibility Bug
Onryo's Demanifested intermittent invisibility is currently bugged when to where the times it shows the killer they are invisible or visible are not the times you are invisible or visible to the survivor. What you see as the Onryo and what the survivor sees are out of sync since her last patch. This prevents you from actually using it as a mind game which is what's intended since it's feeding you incorrect information. What's worse is that the longer you are demanifested, the larger the desync becomes.
-All platforms
-Bug recurs in ALL matches.
I do not take credit for this video as it is someone else's and not mine, but he demonstrates the bug and explains its working in heavy detail to help y'all understand the issue and what's going on. Apologies for some rudeness that might be in it, I'm just using it to help y'all fix this bug since he explains it very thoroughly to help y'all solve the problem.
On top of that there is an additional bug related to this that is not mentioned in the video. This additional bug is the invisibility frames for Onryos phasing not lasting as long as they are supposed to post her last patch. I will quote his explanation to help you better understand.
"In my testing you only get about 0.784 seconds worth of invisibility on the survivor side (it varies but the longest I've seen it is 0.8s). This time is taken from the frame she completely disappears to the frame she becomes visible and I'm fairly certain it's meant to be 1.2 seconds worth of invisibility (genuinely can't find the older patch notes anywhere talking about the buff demanifesting invisibility gained so can't confirm) meaning she is 34.7% weaker than she currently should be when it comes to this mechanic."
I'm linking below another video demonstrating this second bug with Onryo for her invisibility durations. This video is also not mine so I take no credit for this. Again, apologies for any rudeness in the video as it's not mine, just using for its demonstration of the bug to help y'all fix it. Thanks!
So TLDR: The visible and invisible frames survivors see and what Onryo sees are out of sync from eachother with both sides seeing different things rendering it unable to be used for its intended purpose. Her passive invisibility flickers are also not lasting as long as they are supposed to post her last patch that had supposedly increased them.
EDIT: I've added this last additional video as an update to where the bug still currently is and simplifies it a bit. Once again, I take no credit as the video is not mine.

I updated the original post with a second video demonstrating the second bug with Onryo.

That explains a lot… tried to mindgame even with the brown addon and nothing

Same. I couldn’t do it with the brown or reikos watch. I wondered why I was flickering in and out so fast. Like hello? Where’s my invisibility.
I hope they buff her kit a bit too because she really falls flat in all areas still. It’s horrible1 -
Interesting. I would have never tested this, but I noticed that survivors always ran in the right directions while I was invisible, which was weird. At least I no longer have to try only for survivors knowing exactly where I go. Thank you for sharing this.
Please behavior fix this, the invisible buff is actually a nerf and while you look at it, revert reikos watch back to 50% even with the base invisibility increase to 1,2s.

Yeah it explains even more why her mind games never seemed to work, because they weren't.

I edited bits out the original video for easier reference for the devs for the issue (put in my own post but didn't realise this one had already been made, we must've made them very close to one another since it wasn't up when I made my initial post.

Is there insight into whether this issue is being worked on, or not?

Not sure if there’s a way of knowing. All I can tell is they’re reviewing it. I don’t think they typically post on the bug listings to tell people they’re working on it.

Appreciate that!

As of the Vecna patch, the bug still exists. This time I managed to get someone who owns Sadako to help me record this one so the quality should be much better since I'm the survivor and I run at much higher resolution than the initial footage I got.
Both of these are from the most recent patch on different invisibility while demanifested cycles. Can include full commentary for these video too if these small videos aren't long enough to give full context.

Updated the original post with another video further demonstrating the issues and simplifying them to make fixing them easier.

Appreciate the videos and helping me bring light to the bugs!

The bugged desync portion has been fixed in the PTB! Awesome!
However, the duration of her intermittent invisibility is still bugged and not lasting its intended duration! As seen in the example videos she is getting roughly .78 duration instead of the intended 1.2. Quite significant of a discrepancy!

The invisibility duration in game still does not match the stated value of 1.2 seconds as of patch 8.3.0.
