THE BING BONG BOI
Oh boy, here we go...
The wraith changes: the biggest change to the base kit is good old windstorm, windstorm was a basically a core addon for wraith, recognising that it will no longer be an addon but now apart of the basekit, giving you a nice speed boost whenever you leave cloak. also, the Bloodhound affect the wraith had will be removed and change into an addon.
Addons:
COMMON ADDONS
- The Hound - fresh blood marks are considerably more discernible than normal.
- The Beast - The wraith's terror radius is no longer suppressed while cloacked, Bloodpoints granted for stalking and surprise attacks are increased by 100%
- The Serpent - The Wraith will uncloak completely when breaking pallets or damaging generators while cloaked.
- The Ghost - After uncloaking, the wraith's terror radius and red stain will remain suppressed for 6 seconds.
UNCOMMON ADDONS
- Swift Hunt - Moderately reduces the Wraiths reappearance time.
- Blink - Considerably reduces the Wraith's disappearance time
- Windstorm - Moderately increases The Wraith's movement speed while cloaked, Slightly decreases the Wraiths movement speed while uncloaking
- Blind Warrior - Surprise attack inflict survivors with blindness for 60 seconds.
- Bone Clapper - Survivors can no longer discern the Wailing Bell's distance of Direction.
RARE ADDONS
- Blink - Tremendously reduces the wraith's disappearance time
- Shadow Dance - Considerably reduces the time required to vault windows, break pallets or damage generators while cloaked.
- Windstorm - Considerably increases the Wraiths speed while cloaked, slightly decreases the wraiths movement speed while uncloaking.
- Swift Hunt - Moderately Reduces the wraith's reappearance time.
- Blind Warrior - Surprise attacks inflict survivors with mangled and haemorrhage until healed.
VERY RARE ADDONS
- Windstorm - tremendously increases the wraiths movement speed while cloaked, slightly decreases the wraiths movement speed while uncloaking.
- Shadow Dance - Tremendously reduces the time required to vault windows, break pallets or damage generators while cloaked.
- All seeing - Unlocked hidden potential in one's aura reading ability, while cloak survivors within 16 meters of your are revealed.
- Swift hunt - Considerably reduces the wraiths reappearance time.
ULTRA RARE ADDONS
- All Seeing - Unlocks awesome potential in ones aura reading ability. While cloaked, the repair progress of generators can be determined by the intensity of their auras.
- Coxcombed Clapper - Renders the Wailing Bell completely silent.
So alot of changes to everyone's sad fella but seemingly the biggest ones are too the addons, the windstorm buff to his base is amazing and is exactly what he needs for his chasing potential, that extra move speed will help him close that gap.
But the big changes are to his addons, with addons such as the ghost and the Coxcombed Clapper being addon i think were gonna have alot mroe jumpscares when this bing bonger seeming pops out of nowhere, with 6 seconds of no terror radius and no Bell sound affect he's definitely going to take the spot of the games best Stealth killer.
Overall these changes are going to be a big help for him, with the built in windstorm and new stealth options this should give him all the love our saddest killer really needed.

I think these are nice but he needs an addon that decreases the speed penalty while uncloaking. A common one for 25%, a rare one for 50% and an ultra rare one for no movement penalty.1

The ghost addon seems pretty strong for being a common addon. I love these changes. I hope they happen soon.

Not a fan of losing default bloodhound.Yeah me too. As a Wraith main I really really love the changes (so many possible gamestyles and builds...), but I'll miss the glowy blood.

The Coxcombed Clapper that removes the bell sound is positive but it's an ultra-rare add-on, which means it'll be used so infrequently that it's barely worth talking about when we're discussing overall balance.
At this point I think you complain just for the sake of complaining.

There's a difference: I didn't start whining and calling it a nerf and then continue on rambling about how some changes are useless because I can't figure out their possible applications, so stop being a #########.

Not because of terror radius though. If he is going to get that windstorm effect as his base kit you can make really good mind games with the ghost's red stain disappearance effect. A lot of survivors are looking at the red stain rather than killer himself.

You don't back up any of your opinions with reasons like I do. You just grunt GOOD or BAD like a caveman then NEGATIV towards anybody who disagrees with your monkey opinion.
Oh hey, you found a new thing to complain and whine about, congrats!
Just fyi, no I won't go in a detailed description of all the possible application of every addon and why I like them. If I'll feel like giving detailed feedback I will make my own thread. I'll just say that "this thing is bad because I can't see how to use it" and "this thing is bad because it's ultra rare" are not much more than "monkey opinions" and have very little reason in them. Now since it's clear you can't go on a discussion without calling people names, I don't have interest in going on discussing with you. So bye.0 -

If you disagree with me about this being a nerf, a normal poster would give some reasons and explain their point of view, rather than calling people names (you started it) and then exiting the thread on your high horse.
Spambots are more useful than you.
I just expressed an opinion in a neutral tone, YOU called me names in response. I could have given reasons? Yes, but I see your attitude on the forum so I wasn't interested in doing so. Now if you would stop giving me notifications just to insult me you would do me a favour.

As someone who plays a lot of Wraith, I'm really looking forward to these changes. It has the potential to open a lot of doors into how he can be played.

Now i see why they removed the old Tinkerer, imagine Wraith with both Swift Hunt addons, Tinkerer and built in Windstorm.0

Really liking the "hit and run" kind of gameplay they're going for here, in ways reminiscent of Mike but maybe even in ways better while still being worse in others. (no on-demand instadown still) The built in windstorm really opens up different styles of play and I am definitely looking forward to trying out Coxcombed Clapper with The Ghost, looking awesome and can't wait to get the new Windstorm numbers on the speeds!
