Swapping Adept Perks

Peasant Peasant
in General Discussions

So I've been looking at a lot of adept killer perks and I've realized that a good number of them have better synergy with other killers than the killer they actually came with. So here are my thoughts on who can make the most out of the "Adept" (or teachable) perk sets.

This is a work in progress, I'll update as I go along.

Hillbilly:

Knock Out

Barbecue and Chili

Franklin's Demise

Hillbilly benefits from the high mobility and denial of downed survivor aura better than Bubba as he can close the 40m+ distance faster. Now with the downed survivor aura not visible outside of a 16m radius survivors will have less knowledge about where this dangerous killer is. Until he starts running towards them of course.

Leatherface:

Enduring

Lightborn

Tinkerer

Leatherface is a killer who's power can't always be used and he will often rely on his hammer. Enduring makes stuns shorter and Lightborn help his resist blinds making pallets less frustrating. TInkerer helps Bubba properly ambush survivors and make full use of his terrifying Chainsaw Frenzy.

The Legion:

Bamboozle

Coulrophobia

Pop Goes The Weasel

The Legion can force multiple survivors to mend and vault quickly in Feral Frenzy. Bamboozle let's them vault even faster and block windows, closing escape routes and trapping survivors. Coulrophobia makes healing take longer when near the Legion. Granted, not everyone heals near Legion, but in the odd case that someone does or if you hear healing this perk will make it easier to get a down as it reduces the odds of the survivors finishing the heal. Pop Goes The Weasel greatly regresses generator repair progress after a hook. With Legion you can get an even greater benefit by inflicting Deep Wounds on survivors deterring them from repairing and increasing the total regression done.

Nurse:

Predator

Bloodhound

Shadowborn

The Nurse's only real counter is stealth. This perk combo makes stealth and escaping in general harder as scratchmarks are clearer (Predator), Bloodstains and MUCH clearer (Bloodhound), and your base FOV is larger further increasing the odds that you'll see a survivor to begin with (Shadowborn).

To be continued . . .
