New Ghostface PTB buffs are AMAZING

[ShroudedGhostface]

What are your thoughts on the new PTB Ghostface buffs?

I think the new buffs are great. The reduced Night Shroud cooldown time definitely makes it more forgiving and less frustrating to play as ghosty. The new increased crouch walking speed and longer killer instinct duration after being revealed are also great changes. The Night Vision Monocular add on buff is cool and will make it easier to get downs on survivors who use Sprint Burst or other exhaustion perks.

I haven't tried out the newly buffed Knife Belt Clip add on but it's great to see some of Ghostface's more niche add ons getting buffed.

I'm a prestige 80 Ghostface and I personally think the new buffs to ghostface will make him easier for beginners to learn him and make him even more fun for experienced ghostface players.

I’ve yet to win a single game against ghostface and with a buff I better get working on a counter play 😂

The most important thing would have been to fix his Power.
- sometimes you look straight in his face (not even far away) and you still can't reveal him
- sometimes he hides perfectly behind an obstacle and still get's revealed
It's so RNG.

I agree that the reveal mechanic can be hit or miss which can be annoying for both sides but I think overall it's not too bad. I say this as someone who almost exclusively plays ghostface.

I think making the lean stalking mechanic more smooth and less wonky is a more needed change.

Ghostie/Myers/Wraith main here, and these changes were BADLY needed to help my beautiful boy. He actually has something against Exhaustion users now, and this may give him a bit more antiloop as well. Less prerunning being an issue because he's quicker (just like in the films, those out of nowhere hits!), he's more forgiving now, and his Shroud can stay up longer and come back sooner. Now all they need to do is work on fixing his reveal mechanic, because no way should people be able to reveal him from the corner of they got damn eyes.

Exactly. I feel like the increased Night Shroud recovery is a great way to make up for the fact that the reveal mechanic can be so weird. Having a survivor reveal you even though you're behind cover or well hidden isn't as big of a deal with the faster shroud recovery.
