GHOSTFACE IS GETTING A BUFF???!!! DECREASED COOLDOWN TO NIGHTSHROUD? DECREASED AMOUNT OF TIME TO MARK A SURVIVOR?!!! THANK YOUUUU

I feel like it's a totally unnecessary buff, tbh, but if the two addons they are allegedly changing are the matchbook and philly, then this fits in with the pattern of their other recent changes. They seem to care more about encouraging addon variation now, and making the effects of those two addons at least partially basekit would definitely improve addon variation across all ghostface players.

The only thing is that if any of his addons still do award a cooldown decrease to nightshroud, or a decrease to marking time, the majority of people will still prefer to use those. The most effective strategy at overpowering survivors with Ghostface is to 99 their stalk, then fully mark and down them at a time that is super inconvenient for them. The more often you have his power readily available, the more easily you can do this.

Not only that, but having his power frequently available can also help you immensely in chase. Sometimes all it takes to win a chase is hiding your red stain, so the survivor has a harder time discerning where exactly you are. Because Ghostface is pretty small and quiet, this trick can work on even more experienced survivors. Which, again, encourages the use of addons that make nightshroud more frequently available.

But who knows, maybe they will simply add those buffs to Ghostface's basekit and remove them entirely from his addons, like they did with Hux. It's just that Hux is...much, much stronger than Ghostface. Ghostface kind of needs all the help he can get LMAO

#dbd #thoughts about media #the HUD changes are GREAT sounding tho #survivor perk changes seem okay from what I read #I still think they need to rework medkits to be a bit better & nerf toolboxes more heavily instead.#killer perk updates though? YIKES.#Dominance did NOT need the buff. I do not think that is going to promote healthy gameplay.#And I say that as a NOED enjoyer.#Don't really see how human green and languid touch being buffed are going to do...literally anything. but whatever. sure!#weave attunement change....eh.... I mean I'm glad you now have the ability to SEE the item as survivor.#but I think the perk is just. still so fucking NASTY.#like it's not broken. but it's like pentimento where it just feels fucking unfun to play against.#and like. okay sure. survivors can now SEE what to avoid. but the killer's aura reading range is larger now too?#I hope they look over this perk again...I don't think that range increase is necessary.#but hey. at least they aren't fucking around with generator regression perks.#although I think pain resonance is going to need another nerf.#It's just. a wee bit too strong imo.
