Give me your best Slowdown Builds

I used to enjoy PR/DMS but since it got gutted i no longer find any slowdowns appealing. In most games i dont even use any.

I hear people complaining all the time about slowdown builds but i honestly cant come up with a good one that makes sense. Thana/Pentimento/Plaything is one i guess but with how fast people heal in my games its kinda meh imo.

So i would love it if you guys could share some of the slowdown builds you are running and the reasoning behind it.

\(´▽`*)(*´▽`)/Thank you~

  • Thana + Deadlock + Plaything + PR is decent slowdown build. If you love regression more, you can replace Deadlock with Surge.

    None of those synergize with each other right? And i mean thana only makes sense on like 2 killers, i cant see it being any good on the other 26.

  • Agitation, Jolt, PR, Gift of Pain (No gens kicking build)

  • If you want old Pain Resonance back, minus the scream, just combo it with Surveillance. It's annoying to have to use 2 perks to almost get the same effectiveness of what was previously 1 perk, but hey at least it gives you something for kicking gens.

    Thats pretty neat. Would love to fit in floods but the consistency agitation gives is probably better. Thats a nice one thanks

    You can use gen kick perks if you care about synergize but it is kinda boring. I love perks which makes survivors play different.

    Thana = Waste your time with heal.

    Deadlock = Wait 30 seconds or go for another gen.

    Plaything = Look for totem or stay oblivious and give me free hits.

    PR = 15% is good regression. This perk is still decent.

    Surveillance seems solid but imo what made old dms/pr great is it did its job automatically.

    If i have to go over there and pressure the gen myself its not the same imo. Still surveillance is a pretty good idea with pr thanks <3

    Saw this build in streamer youtube video, mostly they will run plaything with pentimento tho which is really strong.

    Thana slow down gens and totem cleansing too.

  • Combine Deadlock with like the Plaything/Pentimento combo and it feels like gens take forever to complete, especially when you decide that oopsies that's not good enough let's run it on Nurse. Whack on Lethal Pursuer and 2 range addons and whew boy have fun to those survivors

    Thats a solid build thanks. I think i would run retribution with it though instead of lethal

  • Call Of Brine and Eruption help with 3-Genning, if you're into that

  • Jolt, Pain Resonance, Surveillance, No Way Out.

    Surveillance will work with Jolt and Pain Resonance. Best thing about this build is you just play normally, never have to kick a gen and get easy gen defence and easy yet very strong info.

  • Corrupt, Deadlock, Pain Res, and either Surge or Thana

    Jolt and Pain Res seems to be the new easy to use regression perks from what i gather and i like that they work with surveillance. Its a pretty solid combo. Thanks mate <3

  • It's too bad the patch didn't happen during the anniversary event since we've seen how fast the gens are when survivors try to win and currently they aren't trying
