For people who want to have more fun with DBD survivor

So I played as Billy and I found one Dwight who did 2 gens, and a hex totem while injured. And it got me thinking, should I stop running self care. I asked him and he said yeah since it's better to do gens and another guy said you can get half a gen in that time it takes you to heal. I tried a game without self care and I think it was one of the most fun games I've had in a while. Mainly because it was a 3 blink Nurse who wasn't the most experienced. But it was still fun being scared of the killer approaching you. I think I might use this build from now on, Bond, Iron will, Balanced landing and Urban evasion. It's fun being injured more.

So if anyone find survivor boring, removing self care (if u run it) might spice things up.

    Yeah, not "wasting" time on healing makes the match go way faster.
    When i play solo i never run self care, but mainly because i find more useful other perks.
    If you wanna play like that i advise you to take resilience, it's a really good perk.

    Yeah this. 16-20 second self-heal. That's a quarter of a gen tops. The fact I can now take a second hit means I can easily drag out a chase long enough to compensate for those 16-20 seconds it took me to heal.

    I also run we'll make it so i heal others really fast.

    Self-care is dead.

    Self Care is such a waste of time now. You should only be healing yourself if it's absolutely necessary. But with anti-heal being a thing you are better off running Adren and just rushing gens without healing.

    I too use Iron Will, Bond, and Balanced Landing. Not really a fan of Urban though, you don't need it. Adren is the best 4th, Hope is really good too because with BL it soft counters NOED and makes it impossible for a slow killer to catch you.

    You’re about a year late.  Self Care is the most overrated perk in the game, especially now.

    I didn't run it one year ago but I needed the crutch so I started running it and Sprint burst. But now they've both been nerfed so heavily and I don't need the crutch anymore so I've decided to play in a different, interesting gamestyle.

    I've been running a build as Jake that works better when injured. Resilience, Dead Hard, Iron Will and This Is Not Happening. Bonus repair speed and much easier great skill checks.

    I'll start running Adrenaline once I've got used to this gamestyle, urban evasion is because I'm trying to experiment on stealthing for a while because this is kind new to me, being able to get smacked one and downed, I mean I did this one year ago and I got crushed a lot but I'm definitely ready to start doing it now though.

    That's a good build. I'd personally either run it with no mither or Balanced landing in the space of Dead hard but that's because I don't like Dead hard a lot. Still a really strong build the way you suggested it though.
