Ghostface needs to stalk faster.
Ghostface has potential to be a very strong killer. That recent hot fix really hurt him though. That extra detection radius really hurt him, making survivors even able to detect him behind walls and rocks. He needs to be able to compensate for such easy detection.
A faster stalk time would help combat this, as well as put pressure on survivors doing generators as well.
Ghostface is an odd killer because his power is directly affected by survivors which makes balancing it a nightmare. If survivors are still going to be able to detect ghost face, at least make it to where he has a chance to get the stalk off in one power usage.
If not survivors should not be able to knock him out of his power (there are already plenty of other ways to) and it should be made where a survivor cannot be stalked if they are looking at you.
Again, ghost face is weird and I'm not too sure how to effectively balance him considering his power affects both him and survivors. He just needs something.

They should give him an ability to teleport to lockers, like new freddy who can teleport to generators. that would give GF necessary map pressure and it will make him more viable in the high ranks.
Thus, his power, which is really weak when survivors have OoO/Spine Chill/Premonition or just good enough to shut his power down.

Ghostface was never a supernatural force though. He never teleported in any of the movies and it wouldn’t fit his character either. Similar to Myers it is like a “where did he go” type of scenario but he never physically teleported to an area, he was just sneaky.
At least with Freddy you are in HIS world and he is in control of what he can do in his own world. It makes sense that his body phases in and out of view and that he can teleport to generators despite not being supernatural. Ghostface is just a regular dude under a mask. I get why you’d suggest locker teleporting but it’s not really cannon to his character.

The opposite should be done. GF should lose all progress by the time he gets revealed.

He still feels fine to me, I like him. You should be aiming to lean-stalk every single time if you can help it, fills that stalk meter reeeeal quick. I don't think there's a problem with its rate.

Yeah, I'm the same, I try to lean every time, it's how I get 6+ marks each match. Listening out for gens being worked on then hiding at a corner and leaning works best, also getting the high ground, you'd be surprised how many don't look up. I think if it was any faster it'd be a little ridiculous, his normal walking stalk is kinda slow though but I only ever use that if I only need a tap of stalk to finish the meter anyway.

Ghost face is balanced ish. Tbh I think his no terror radius is easy to abuse and get the stalk off easy. I ran spine chill before GF came out and sometimes I forget to notice that hes looking. Even 1500 hour people slip up

There were always two of them, however, so I could see how that might work out in some shape or form. It would be really cool to pay homage to the movies in a way that wouldn't breach the license.

First movie was Billy and Stu
Second movie was Mrs. Loomis and Mickey
Fourth movie was Jill and Charlie
Pretty sure the third movie was only Roman right?

@MegMain98 This Ghostface isn't even base off the movies, so using a reference from them doesn't really make sense
