Rather than keeping your reticle on a Survivor at all times learning how to aim a little further ahead of the fleeing character will ensure you land a deadly blow on the Survivor.

While the Spirit cannot see survivors while using her ability, she still can hear them and can see scratch marks while the survivor runs so she isn’t completely blind.

Hex: Retribution is also a great perk for finding survivors but Hex totems in general need a rework for them to be viable. If a power can be cleansed in the first 30 seconds of the game it’s essentially usel

Wraith – The second original killer in the bottom rung of the leader boards, the Wraith specializes in turning invisible and sneaking up on survivors.
