Prayer beads change idea

Wouldn’t it be cool for the new prayer beads to grant undetectable for a few seconds after coming out of phasing instead of hearing it map wide? That would be super interesting and fun

    I wish they'd straight up change the UR add ons. I have an idea brewing if you want to hear it.


    Also Ana Prayer Beads should've had that affect. I was actually just mentioning that to my cousin the other day.

    I think it would kinda keep the core effect of prayer beads while not making it as powerful as before

    The thing about that is that Spirit is ridiculously loud even without a TR, she cries an wails non-stop.

    I'd have to ask though: how would this work for the Spirit while still in-phase?

    If survivors could hear the phasing, the Undetectable wouldn't really matter as much as the survivors are aware of her presence.

    And if the Spirit does manage to leave phase before survivors hear the vacuum, the undetectable status would have to last ridiculously long for it to not run out before she reaches the survivors.


    That's my take on it, at least. If you have an idea on how to tackle that, you might have a fun idea there!

    Hm good point idk I just think a way to incorporating undetectable in would be a really unique add on for her

    Didn’t stop them from adding an ultra-rare for Demogorgon that grants it the undetectable status effect for 10 seconds despite it’s footsteps being a dead giveaway that it’s nearby.

    I do agree with you though that Spirit is super loud even without a terror radius.

    So lets say you're a Gen outside of her TR, you see she is actively in a chase with the Obsession, you keep doing the Gen. You hear her phasing and you're fine because the Obsession is being chased, the phasing sound ends and a second later Spirit turns a corner and smacks you in the face.

    Basically the strategy would be to leave Phasing before you reach your destination, this way Survivors think you weren't coming for them since you didn't show up right next to them. That false sense of security convinces them to keep doing their Gen and then Spirit walks up next to them with no TR. It is kind of like Demo leaving his portals except you have concentrated control of where you're going and how far you want to go to time your Undetectable.

    Could work, you'd require the survivor to have that sense of security though, if they don't know you're chasing anyone, all they know is "she's here".

    It's a good idea but sounds very unreliable. You'd just have to have a way to trick survivors into that sense of security that's reliable for the Spirit player.

    Well as Survivor I never assume Spirit is on her way to my location, I let go of the Gen so I don't get grabbed just in case but I don't run off and show I'm actually there. I might stand a little bit away from the Gen so if she does show up I don't get hit but I don't like completely leave the area because I hear her coming. This add-on would get me as I would think she is indeed not coming since she did not appear and I still don't hear her TR.

    But maybe this is why I can't get past Rank 5?

    Hah, maybe. I suppose it could occasionally work, though Spirit is quite tall, and as she can't see you either, she doesn't know which way you're looking. She might pop out in your LoS. And that's if you stick around the gen in a place she could find you easily. Most survivors will hide. They won't move very far away, but they'll hide which would make it very difficult for the Spirit to see them before they saw her, you know?

    That's where it kind of becomes an unreliable option for an addon, as it becomes rather luck based more than anything.

    At least, this is how I see it.
