Is Wraith too OP in 2v8?

Like honestly that guy gets a free down easily anywhere pallets are gone.
But worst of all it reminds me of how Wraith is SO RELIANT on those good addons to be a threat normally.

Could we tone down 2v8 Wraith and tune up normal wraith please.

    Tbf he has a bug in 2v8 that enables him to uncloak faster than he should which makes him much stronger. However, in my opinion he is one of the best 2v8 killers but mainly due to his good map mobility and to kick gens fast. 2v8 is also much more chaotic and overwhelming when it comes to infos and noises which helps an undetectable killer a lot to sneak up on survivors before they can react.

    However, I think he not too OP in this mode because he still has to deal with pallets and rebuilding pallets hurts him too despite being able to break them fast - similar to Billy.

    But I wish they would buff Wraith's basekit in the normal mode. Just make the uncloak and speed addons half basekit

    I don't think he's OP, though he is quite a lot stronger than base wraith due to the innate skill buffs. Having shadowdance and faster uncloak addons built in takes some getting used to

    End of the day he's a regular m1 killer and if he seperates from his teammate he has to play all the tiles normally p much.

    The only reason he's so strong in 2v8 is because his uncloak speed in 2v8 is bugged to be much faster than intended - it should be the equivalent of the purple and green Swift Hunt addons combined, but it's actually stronger which is unintentional.

    i think they should reduce his uncloak speed to 1.5 seconds in regular mode.

    Best I can agree too on the basis of no evidence is 2 seconds and the destruction of all Swift Hunt addons.

    2vs8 is hidden ptb where everyone can public test killer buff changes that might show up in base game.

    He is not really OP. His chase is quite limited, if you know what to do against him. Just don't give him any window, or pallet for free.

    He definitely excels in 2v8 compared to normal dbd. I think a lot of people are stuck in current tier-list mindsets where they can't comprehend/accept that wraith is arguably stronger than the 3 top killers, based on the differences and requirements to be considered "strong" in 2v8. I completely agree that he needs to be toned down in 2v8 but buffed slightly for normal matches.

    He definitely is not op but compared to his regular dbd state, he is far superior.

    Yea… but like… any Killer can do that in 2v8. In fact it is intentionally designed that way.
