I've been playing killer for a long while in Dead by Daylight but I'm not exactly the best at the killer role yet and i was wondering, what kind of builds is good for a player who isn't exactly the best at the killer role while playing as the Wraith, i mostly have trouble keeping up with gens in some matches against good survivor teams. (Note: I don't have the Stranger Things DLC yet, so i don't

This is not a testament to The Doom Slayer. If anything, he should terrify The Entity. No, there is another like him, but not nearly as powerful, not nearly as much of a… threat to The Entity. But first, we must see the new culling grounds… SENTINEL PRIME - ARGENT D'NUR A dead realm once inhabited by Argentans and Sentinels, now a conquered and pil

i run calm spirit an distortion always… an before this patch when a teammate was hooked i would become the obsession lose a stack of distortion not scream an the killer would not know my location. but now when becoming the obsession i lose no stacks of distortion not scream but the killer runs straight to my location. has been happening for the past two days now.. an every killer run friends til

SUMMARY OF THE ISSUE: the perk dissolution puts the ghouls power on cooldown when it shouldn't, the perk is an entity pallet breaking perk not a perk where the killer is directly breaking the pallet so it shouldn't put the ghouls ability on cooldown. PLATFORM: Steam STEP BY STEP INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW THE ISSUE OCCURED: Equip the perk Dissolution on The Ghoul and when it gets used to break a palle

Hello, I wanted to suggest possibly implementing some form of shared status effect to prevent the stacking of second chance perks such as Deliverance, Unbreakable, and Decisive Strike. Players often complain when these perks are used in tandem, and it is particularly aggravating when playing against survivor 4 stacks as a killer. Currently, the Exhausted status effect is used to prevent this wi

Alright so info about me : around 1000 hours on survivor, trash at looping. Europe server. (not that my looping skills will get higher any time soon with all the anti loop killers) So you'd think id be on low mmr no? Regardless I been having several losing spree's on dbd since day one… i usually lose around 10-15 games before a escape and usually that escape is one of my team mates looping th

Idea is literally what it says. As someone who is trying to get into survivor, I can say in the game's past and current states killer has always been more fun and one sided. Obviously we're going to have those games with the sweaty p100 swfs but not every lobby is going to be like that. So why do the survivor buffs and nerfs always cater to these higher mmr players when majority of the playerbase

SUMMARY OF THE ISSUE: Nemesis m1 not counting as basic attack for perks PLATFORM: Steam (Linux) STEP BY STEP INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW THE ISSUE OCCURED: Equip nemesis and pwyf, drop a chase with the obsession for a stack, m1 a survivor and you don't lose a stack VIDEO: https://youtu.be/2ZJkO26YHmk PLAYER LOGS: Player logs are required from PC players only.

SUMMARY OF THE ISSUE:Nemesis M1 hits not registering either as m1 attacks or m2 PLATFORM:All While playing nemesis with play with your food and getting stacks I saw that I was not loosing stacks while m1ing was going for backpack build with agitation and play with your food. Resulting with me having permanent 15%haste.

Ever since maps shrunk and they changed the hook hit boxes (they're quite large on the ground, so that survivors can't body block as easy), I can count on my hand how many times I've managed to wiggle off of a killer's shoulder on two hands. Even when I bring an entire build surrounding this mechanic (boil over, petrified oak, sabo, etc) it does absolutely NOTHING. Now if the killer brings Iron G

SUMMARY OF THE ISSUE: Playing Nemesis with mad grit, agitation, pain resonance, & pop goes the weasel. A survivor was trying to take protection hit as I was carrying their teammate to a hook & i accidentally lunged, immediately realized something was off.

I can pick up the Lament Configuration and not worry about being oblivious, I can ignore Plaything in solo now, and I can keep the killer constantly called out. Object has a Lethal competitor now that Distortion is dead. This perk seems pre run city, especially on midwich and rpd. One Rapid Response seems enough to cause M1 crashouts.Are undetectable stocks going to go up? I so happened to hav

I really enjoy this shade of blue we are now using for rares… I will say, I agree with the yellow gamers and wholly believe that this should be a togglable change if not a relatively customizable option WITHOUT the use of 3rd party applications such as nightlight. I do feel a little turned around with the UI changes but I'm also not 5 years old so it's fine. While there is some nitpicking I cou

It’s OBVIOUSLY wayyy too strong, shoulder the burden level strong, and will be especially bad against low level killers. The problem was never the range it’s the strength and time of the haste! You literally get the same distance as sprint burst with no cooldown, it’s obnoxious. Make it 10% for 3 seconds. IT NEEDS A NERF.

The rarity changes had the most negative reception of any proposed change I have ever seen. I feel like I saw more people like the Twins rework than the new color update. And yet you kept it. The quest system makes the game more grindy. You can't just do the time for as long as the rift is open, you need to play every day and every week to actually gain meaningful progress. Not only that, you

Reworking pentimento is a good thing, however, the best thing penti brought was making & reducing speeds for recovery and gates which made it unique as it's one of the few (or only perks) that do this, now it's completely gone, what makes this worse, is that the totems can be found way too easily now, they already were before bc it's a previous totem location, but giving survs the aura to fin

hi first post even created an account to ask this, has anyone else had issues with dead hard bugging with this most recent patch? For context I have pretty good internet, hover around 30-40 MS, and my last match against houndmaster my dead hard refused to proc. Now before the “skill issue” comments roll in I’m aware that sometimes you just need to get good to make the perk work, but I had both of

SUMMARY OF THE ISSUE: When a killer uses their power to hit a survivor, Duty of Care will fail to activate. (Killers tested: Blight and Chucky) PLATFORM: PC STEP BY STEP INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW THE ISSUE OCCURED: Simply running Duty of Care and a killer with an M2 attack, this would naturally occur within a trial without much set-up or effort.

I think that finding the best out of any perk and killer is the best feeling in the game. When you use something people don’t see often and win the game it is 1000x better than meta perks. something else I enjoy is using killer powers in ways people aren’t used too. It’s hard to counter something you see once in a blue moon Some of my personal favorite things to do are Distressing + Doctor:

The cap was introduced to prevent things like DS to not proc when combining Fire Up with Forever Entwined. Is the issue going to be properly fixed and the bandaid cap lifted?

1 They didn't show LOW MMR escapes. NOT even average MMR escapes. They didn't show the lowest picked killers, neither the lowest winrates for killer. What was shown was carefully selected and id like the whole thing. Because for me, it's impossible to believe the escape rate is 40% when me and the people i know lose 10-20 games and win maybe 2. 2 Not only that, i was on a lose streak atm. I

The truth doesn’t hide. It waits. A new Killer, The Veritus, a new Survivor, Dr. Elowen Mira, and a new Map, The Ruins of the Mysterious Observatory, have been added to Dead by Daylight. This Chapter peers into the fragile veil of perception, where what is seen cannot be unseen — and what is hidden can never again be trusted. When the search for truth breaks through the boundaries of realit

Whenever you unhook someone/heal someone while you are the obsession, that person becomes the obsession, (it would not activate the haste at the same time) The fact that this perk will be completely disabled if you happen to be the obsession via decisive/nemesis and other obsession changing perks feels very demoralising, so this could be a nice buff/QoL.

Game Afoot is a perk that gives you haste after breaking a pallet or a generator while chasing the objection. It is widely regarded to be a bad perk, because breaking a pallet takes time and allows the Obsession to gain distance on you. Despite not claryifing it needs to be manually destroyed, last time I checked it does not work with things like Bubbas Chainsaw or Nemesis Tentacle. This would

let me see if i understand. after having a event where i could finaly win sometimes because i didn't have to do 5 gens vs sweaty TOXIC killers. now i need to go back to normal dbd and lose 11-15 games before i can win 1 or 2?… man im not sure i can do it. I would still lose 6-7 matches of blood moon with survivor before i won one, but at least it was fast and easier. At least i earned some bp m

A killer who is a mimic . It basically would resemble a random survivor until it comes within so many meters at which time it would revert back to original form. The next idea is maybe adding some perks for killer and survivor that only become active at end game. (Similar to blood warden) but for survivors as well a few different types for killer and survivor.

Hey guys, after some research, I made a post breaking down 3 great builds for The Ghoul. Build 1: Brutal Strength, BBQ & Chilli, Surge, Coup de Grâce Build 2: Whispers, Sloppy Butcher, Forever Entwined, Bitter Murmur Build 3: Hex: Thrill of the Hunt, Hex: Pe

I would like to suggest a simple change to Undone, which is to change how tokens are gained from failing skill checks to survivors hitting great skill checks instead. It will change the perk from worthless (especially after new patch which will prevent the skillchecks the moment you let go of generator) to somewhat useful. The flavor will also fit more since right not, what is it even "undoing"?

SUMMARY OF THE ISSUE: On the FAQ | THE HELLRAISER CONTENT website it says "For players who have not unlocked The Cenobite, the perks will appear in the General perk pool to be available to unlock on any other Killer immediately. These General perks will appear under new names." However, since that date I have levelled both Plague and Clown to P3, during the process of which perks stopped appearin

I don’t know if this is exclusive in EU servers or if one of the big content creators did this, but it seems every other Killer match Survivors take me to the RPD with Lithe & MFT.

It’s a miracle to catch up when I’m playing a killer with no mobility, especially dur

Almost every other game has this. High ping to the severs make everything slower or delayed. Perks like Resilience, and Dead Hard, become unusable on high ping even if you time it correctly due to the delay. This is an absolute must have change in DBD.

Not sure if i missed it in the last few patches but previously i would run a build: appraisal, moment of glory, plunderers instinct and ace in the whole. purely a for fun build and after not running it for some time moment of glory is now lost when hooked/downed and you need to open 2 more chests for it to activate it again.

…most boring, zero skill gameplay.
