    The best killer perks are the ones you have the best understanding of, and know how to utilise every advantage it can give you.

    The worst killer perks are the ones you don’t understand well enough to get the advantage they provide.

    "Best" will vary by killer. Some combos work better on certain characters (such as STBFL on Demogorgon or M&A on Deathslinger).

    But to give you an idea of what's kind of universally considered pretty good (as in, functionally useful or valuable on most killers):

    • BBQ & Chili
    • Discordance
    • Ruin (plus Undying and/or Surveillance, if you like)
    • Pop Goes the Weasel
    • Save the Best for Last
    • Monitor & Abuse
    • Enduring (plus Spirit Fury as an option)
    • Devour Hope
    • Corrupt Intervention
    • Deathbound

    The worst killer perks are ones that just have little-to-no meaningful effect or are too situational/weak to be useful. Not trying to write a novel though, so here's just a few that are pretty widely thought of as downright terrible:

    • Monstrous Shrine
    • Insidious
    • Cruel Limits
    • Rancor (though it can be fun for "Rancor Roulette")
    • Furtive Chase (can be fun for the same reason as Rancor)
    • Predator
    • Territorial Imperative
    • Unrelenting

    ...And many more.

    Rancor is definitely not "downright terrible". It's not good either, but you get a notification of where every survivor is when a gen gets completed, and you get to insta-kill one survivor at the end. It's not completely useless but there are better perks for sure.

    Rancor also lets the Obsession know where you are (unless you are Undetectable). It's pretty much just a worse version of Dark Sense that has a situational mori caveat lumped into it. It's a terrible perk.

    I disagree with you here. Rancor by itself is not that good, but when combined with perks that reward you for avoiding the obsession like PWYF or STBFL, you can get some great vale out of it. It is really good if you are running a build based around the mid and late game, as it serves a purpose in both.
