I played echo to go for the charm and I noticed that the yokai isn't as good as it was. Shots seem to need to be dead on and at closer range than before for someone to react. Shooting it near someone doesn't seem to do anything anymore. It also seems to go through them at times. I haven't played him in a while but I remember that a shot doesn't need to hit them directly for them to react. Doesn't seem to do that now as I hardly see anyone do the blinding animation. Could be just me.
I did not find the right solution from the internet.
