  Does anyone know how/if we will know if we have achieved a daily community challenge, and if a given daily community challenge is achieved, how long will the unlocked item/s be available to claim?

• Rancor & Head On

  Abbatoir_Blues in General Discussions June 22, 2021

  Hello, dbd community! The current shrine has Rancor and Head On available. The other two perks, Blood Pact and I'm All Ears seem pretty useless or of limited use, but I'm curious about the former two. I can't find much on Youtube about Rancor. Is it something to have in the inventory or can it be substituted effectively with similar perks? Is Head On more than a novelty? As much as it makes

• Is Prestige Worthwhile

  Abbatoir_Blues in Polls May 20, 2021

  I've heard "yes" and "no" equally since beginning the game, so...is Prestige worthwhile? Please share your reasoning. If this poll has already been done, please let me know.

• SURVEILLANCE

  Abbatoir_Blues in General Discussions May 14, 2021

  Until recently, OhTofu was doing a weekly "Shrine Showcase" series in which he would describe, demonstrate and assess the usefulness of killer perks in the Shrine of Secrets. This was particularly useful for players who still do not have many add-on killers unlocked, but he hasn't posted a new video in over a month. So, I am asking for feedback about Surveillance. Is it worth the shards?

• Gilded Stampede Red Envelopes

  Abbatoir_Blues in Ask the Community March 4, 2021

  What is the point in leaving unused GSRE's in our inventory but unusable? Firecrackers and festive toolboxes can still be used, so why not the red envelopes, or why aren't they converted to some other type of offering?

• Operation Dumbhook

  Abbatoir_Blues in General Discussions January 20, 2021

  Am I actually observing an upswing among survivors performing the most ill-advised and pointless unhooks, the primary result of which is ensuring someone's swift death? I comprehend that practice is necessary to improve a skill, and I embrace the concept that escape is not an absolute necessity for a trial to be a "success," but the prevalence with which at least two, random team-mates are downe

• A Newcomer's Perspective

  Abbatoir_Blues in General Discussions December 15, 2020

  I happily found DbD via an Xbox gold offer months back. It is infinitely more fun and more of a challenge than the only previous assymetrical horror survival I'd played, Friday the 13th. At this point, I can claim to be, at best, an intermediate beginner, having played mostly Meg and being tragically incompetent with the killers I've tried, despite the videos I continue to watch for tips for im

• Item Charges

  Abbatoir_Blues in General Discussions December 14, 2020

  I searched the forum looking for an answer to this and didn't find one, so I hope this isn't insanely repetitive. Is there any way to check to see how many charges remain on an item, such as a toolbox or medkit? I'm not sure how to most effectively use my charge add-ons, when I may not be sure how many basic charges the item might have remaining.
