I swear even the worst of players can get a 4k with wraith I mean his add-ons are busted AF his base kit power is so insane. I mean I have played against every killer and I've escaped at least once ( not including peace games with the killers) but wraith NEVER

    YES. The other day when I played him he has basekit aura reading when cloaked, that's so unfair. All Wraiths do is bodyblock for the down and now that they can have permanent aura reading is ridiculous.

    They just need to add back lightburn so that he cant get free hits wasy fix. I miss the days when they fear you more cause once they see your using especially flashbang they try their best to leave you be lol.

    Yes his adds on too are all annoying specially the 60% break actions. I use to not mind wraith but as soon as they remove lightburn off him he became onf of my top hates.

    Also like bubba they all run bambi so people who say him and bubba weakness is windows guess what happens when they have bambi.

    His addon that lets you see gens by total repair state is pretty solid, but I don't think Wraith is op. He's like a little brother to Nurse :)

    I guess one of the bigger challenges with Wraith is the way I have to strain my eyes, not blinking to see him coming :(

    Wraith is really weak compared to most Killers especially if you're using audio to track. Or even just looking for his Predator style shimmer.

    His power is Cloaking and being a bit quicker. It's not that strong.

    He has no real antiloop. He has ok map mobility. He has not the greatest stealth. He can't Hinder, Expose, or do much else. He's incredibly mid.

    The Wraith's power is simply not an issue. He's a simple Killer with good return on investment until you find anyone who knows how to loop half decent, which is the same problem all M1s face. He's a B tier and a lower B tier at that. He doesn't need a nerf.

    Um…Wraith is widely considered to be a pretty weak killer. I'm a pretty mediocre survivor player and I love going against Wraith because how easy he is to loop and can be easily mindgamed at pallets and windows. You should try playing as Wraith yourself and you'll quickly realize how weak he is against even semi-competent survivors.

    Lol. Is this where complaining is at now?

    I'm positive that survivors are just getting dumber, especially with flashlights.

    he’s miles away from nurse lol maybe 2021 base windstorm Wraith.

    He really doesn't. His kit forever ensures he will get free hits against most players.

    they also need to nerf unrelenting, whiffing and not getting punished is crazy

    Caiman Member Posts: 2,959

    I've seen people seriously argue that whiffing needs to be punished more, I put nothing past this forum and its wacky opinions.

  • Toystory3Monkey
    Toystory3Monkey Member Posts: 895

    no way.

    on a more serious note, i love running unrelenting on singularity and swinging at every pallet. that's hilarious and it actually works.

    Go play Wraith, get to a decent level then come back and try to tell me he’s strong.

    We have to nerf pig now.

    • Yes, it's strong, in the right hands it's truly lethal, but he doesn't need any nerf. Don't listen to anyone who tells you he's an M1 killer, so he should be considered a weak killer. The perception that he is a weak killer arises from the fact that many rookies use him because he has an easy to use power. Now, I'm not saying it's on the same level as Nurse, Blight, or Billy, but it's definitely a killer that can be oppressive. I advise you to watch some guides on YT or follow some good loopers on twitch, you will surely learn something about how to counter it. Also, calmly accept that you have difficulty with some killers... I have 4k hours in this game, and I still have enormous difficulties with Oni's power, but that's not a good reason for me to ask for some nerfs🤣

    That's why Wraith is the little brother. He can't stick up for himself, so sometimes Nurse has to come help him out :)

  • Nazzzak
    Nazzzak Member Posts: 5,841

    No, he doesn't need a nerf. But yes, he has a very low skill floor.

    Since when was Wraith that good. He just destroys low MMR lobbies because no heartbeat means no killer and they can't loop.

  • Pelaan
    Pelaan Member Posts: 306

    Thats kinda a good thing tbh cause he's an original free starter killer imagine if new players had to learn singularity on your first game lol

    Alastor, I think you have more to worry about than how op wraith is lol (Charlie and the hotel, your deal. etc.)

    I can't tell if this is a troll or serious. Because Wraith is not even powerfull enough to have an discussion about him.

  • Rokku_Rorru

    I think it's less that he is op and more how jank the servers track fast movement, like if its a map with lots of pallets and windows he is pretty much done for.

    But if its any of the small maps like the new coldwind etc, he is a problem where there is like 8 or so pallets (exaggerating). since his cloak buffs he is good at 4v1 pressure due to being able to get around the map quickly, jolt in some maps is super effective, Endfury builds paired with aura reading addons are oppressive. That and his ability to return to the hook and be an ass because of said movement.

    It would be nice if he was a bit more interactive that's where my gripe is, he is really boring to play as or against.

    If this was the current issue of DBD, then seems like we are good for now.
    Just learn how to delay on every pallet and window, where you force him uncloak. Not really difficult to play against him.

  • Thank you for understanding but unfortunately since my mmr is rather high 99% of my wraiths run knock out sloppy deerstalker and overcharge and slugs all 4 survivors and bleeds us out and even when we run Unbreakable/exponential he just downs us again and kicks our boon

  • I have

  • I still get 4k with him every time

  • I respect your opinion and value it I promise I'm not a salty person it's just I posted this after I went against my 6th wraith in the same day and I basically played a bleedout simulator every single match
