Favorite year 8 killer?

Bubba's shadow nerf
Bubba feels great to play as now (though I do think his sweep speed should still be bumped up a little more and he could use an add-on pass) but there's something that felt off whenever I played as him. I was maximizing the tantrum meter far, far more often. Prior to 8.0.0 I basically never hit that meter. And it turns out…

Which cross-map instadown killer is stronger?
Not specifically their abilities to instadown survivors in long ranges, but which killer in general is stronger?

Please reconsider the decision of reworking two of Blight's add-ons
Prior to their proposed reworks in the PTB, these add-ons were moreso gimmicky, but they were cute ideas and fun to use. Summoning Stone was a mini Blood Favor, and Soul Chemical was a fun little add-on that had the chance of revealing the locations of survivors that are healing or doing generators while adding slowdown.…

What tier is the new Pig?
Still might be too early to tell but just for fun.

Any add-on ideas for good ol' Pyramid Head?
Been playing Executioner lately and he's a blast to play as! He might actually be my third main. He's a very relaxing killer to play as, but unfortunately his add-ons are horrible and some of the worst add-on sets in the game. But what do you think? Any ideas for potential add-ons that he could use, or ideas for buffs of…

Varying the killers' terror radiuses
BHVR has been quite experimental with terror radius numbers lately, with Wesker being the first killer to have a 40m terror radius in his base-kit, Sadako having a 24m teror radius despite being 4.6 m/s, and Chucky disregarding the 4.4 m/s + 24m radius rule. So what if some killers could have adjusted terror radius…
-
Any plans for Pyramid Head for the Year 9 roadmap?
Pyramid Head has some of the worst and most boring add-ons in the game and many have agreed on that. He is in desperate need of an add-on pass as well as the animation bug when charging up his rites of judgement that still hasn't been fixed to this day. It looks awful and it felt a lot more fluid prior to this bug. For…

Who is the most map-reliant killer in DBD?
Title, feel free to comment down below a killer that isn't listed

The Hillbilly - My proposed add-on changes
Unlisted add-ons are add-ons I feel are fine as they are at the moment. Common Counterweight Adds weight to the base, for stability. Reduces the initial Turn rate of the Chainsaw during a Chainsaw Sprint by -70 %. New Effect 1: Disables the Overdrive Meter of the Chainsaw. New Effect 2: Grants +100 % bonus Bloodpoints for…

Other than box art boy Trapper, who do you see as the second face of DBD?

I don't like the Shadowborn rework, here's my idea
You have a keen vision in the darkness of the night. Survivors 12/16/20 metres within your radius are marked in a white outline within your line of sight. Trumps the ability to read auras. The white aura is basically the same as Myers/Ghostface's white outline for survivors when stalking. Or a simpler example: the outline…

Tier list on killer mastery
Feel free to disagree (in fact, I want people to disagree because I want to hear opinions from others) or post your own tier lists down here, this is only my take. This is a tier list on the skill ceilings of killers rather than the skill floors of killers, so keep that in mind. This is based on how difficult it is to…

Add Banban to Dead by Daylight!
Garten of Banban is one of the most iconic horror games of all time alongside Poppy Playtime, with Garten of Banban 3 having recently come out and the 4th one coming soon. I fully believe Banban should be added to the game. BHVR please consider collaborating with the Euphoric Brothers and include Banban within the roster…
-
Can you please fix this game's anti-aliasing?
DBD's anti-aliasing is such an eyesore. It just makes the game more blurry rather than sharp, yet smooth, which is what AA should typically do. The game would look so, SO much better if it were fixed. Sure you can disable AA... in the game's settings file, not in-game itself. But come on, a game in a modern engine…
-
Is the key rework still planned?
Haven't heard any news of it in a while (proba and no one really talks about it these days. Though it was planned to release last DBD year (June 2021-June 2022) and it never happened, so I'm just gonna assume it got shelved. I suppose it's fine considering keys aren't broken anymore, but it's strange that they'd just drop…
-
Dead Man's Switch + Pain Resonance, a new possible meta contender?
Keep in mind that this is about the new PTB 5.5.0, where Dead Man's Switch was buffed to activate by hooking any survivor. It is no longer limited to only the obsession. I tried out this combo on Clown, it seemed really powerful. Gen explodes from Pain Resonance after hooking a survivor, and the gen gets blocked for 45…

Morbius DBD chapter
I fully believe that DBD should have a Morbius chapter. Morbius is one of the most iconic films of all time and is regarded as the greatest movie of 2022. M1 - Morb (he morbs to attack survivors) his power: Morbin' Time (he presses m2 to use his power where he says "it's morbin time" and then morbs survivors) Please share…

How would you change the Trickster?
This can be anything: a rework, buffs, nerfs, visual changes, leaving him the way he is, or even going as far as suggesting to delete him.
-
Was the Spirit nerf justified?
Oh boy, controversial thread #10177539631! Well, not like this thread will probably get much attention since it's like 11 PM here. The Spirit nerf was quite controversial. Some people believe she is weaker now, some believe she is still strong, some believe she is just as strong, some believe the nerf was too little or too…
-
When playing as the Clown, do you ever use his antidote?
By antidote, I mean the yellow gas. I personally use it every game. It almost always has its way of being useful in my games. Closing in distances, catching up in tiles you wouldn't normally be able to with only the tonic, etc. It's a powerful utility in combination with the tonic that people sleep on. However, the reason…
-
The only change I would make to the Artist's base-kit
Okay, so I've been playing her for a while, and holy ######### she is powerful in the right hands (but we'll see once survivors adjust). That is, on the right maps... Two-story maps such as The Game, RPD, and Midwich is where she really struggles, especially the first two. She can only use her tracking on generators on the…
-
In my opinion, almost every killer should be balanced around the A tier, or even the S tier.
When I say "almost every", I don't mean every killer. It depends on how much skill the killer takes. For instance, killers with lower skill floors but with higher skill caps, such as Wraith and Clown, should be balanced around high B tier, no lower. Killers with higher skill floors, such as Pinhead, should be balanced…

Is Deathslinger a bottom 5 killer now?
I'd like to hear your thoughts.
-
How would you change the Nurse?
This can be anything: a full-on rework, buffs, nerfs, visual changes, leaving her the way she is, or even going as far as suggesting to delete her. I've been actually thinking of making this a series! I really liked the ideas you all had on my Trickster post, so I thought about making another one. Like Trickster, this one…

How long will y'all drop the codes for?
I'm not gonna be home for 5-6 hours so seeing them getting dropped rn is quite a shame. I hope they continue to be dropped on the forums throughout the day. Oh and feel free to taunt me with skin codes, mods.

Pig's add-on pass is nice, but she still relies on Combat Straps and Workshop Grease.
Seriously, these two add-ons together have always made her WAY more enjoyable to play as. You can't really use her other add-ons as well because her chase sucks without these two add-ons. Why weren't they made base-kit, I have no clue. It would be really, REALLY nice to actually be able to use her add-ons while having her…

For those who think/thought SBMM was a good idea, what are your thoughts on it now?
I'm not trying to attack you for thinking SBMM was a good idea, I'm neutral on SBMM, but I want to hear thoughts from those who want/wanted SBMM on the state of SBMM right now. Please only vote on the poll if you wanted SBMM prior to its release or still want SBMM in the game. EDIT: I just realized how confusing option 1…

Is DBD a competitive game?
Nothing to say here, just wanted to hear everyone's thoughts on this.

You've heard of Crack Billy, now get ready for...
CRACK PIG! With Last Will (increases Ambush movement speed by 6%, and increases Ambush charge time by 66%) + Workshop Grease (increases Ambush charge speed by 50%, and decreases Ambush miss cooldown by 25%), you're covering up the charge time increase with Workshop Grease in order to get the most out of Last Will. It's…
-
If a killer is fun to play as, does it matter if they are fun to go against?
Remember that fun is subjective, for example, someone might find Deathslinger fun to play as, but another might not find him fun to play as. I personally think that as long as a killer is fun to play as, they don't need to be fun to go against.

Trapper pretty much got the Wraith treatment
Wraith: Base-kit old Windstorm (speed boost after uncloaking) in 2.3.0, True invisibility in 4.5.0, later gets Windstorm (faster movement speed while cloaked) base-kit in 4.6.0, soon to get add-on changes in 5.3.0 Trapper: Faster trap setting in 2.1.0, Trap RNG rework in 4.5.0, later gets darker traps base-kit, soon to get…
-
Who takes the most skill?
IMO out of these three, Blight has the lowest skill floor, but the highest skill ceiling, whereas Billy has the highest skill floor, and a high skill ceiling. I'd say Oni's skill floor is slightly higher than Billy's, but has a slightly lower skill ceiling. However, all of them have very high skill ceilings, some of the…
-
Would Pyramid Head still be powerful without his cage and final judgement?
Just thought of this for fun! It's definitely a very useful utility power. It allows you to quickly hook/kill someone (with the downside of it not activating any of your perks) as well as dodge Decisive Strike and other unhook-related perks including BT. But without his ability to plant down those trails and torment…

What do you think about the Raccoon City Police Station map?
Me personally, I hate it. I hate everything about it. Okay fine, I love its graphical design, but that's about it.

Ideas for Clown base-kit and add-on changes from a Clown main
As one of the 5 Clown mains, I am very happy with the changes he got in the 4.5.0 patch. However, Clown could still use some buffs, particularly to his base-kit and add-ons, so let's get started! Base-kit While the Clown is invigorated, he can perform actions (breaking pallets, vaulting windows, opening lockers, picking up…
-
How to fix the Hillbilly, but keep the overheat mechanic at the same time
Since BHVR is hesitant about removing overheat, I think there are still ways to work around it. Base-kit Billy is still a really, really fun killer, even if his base-kit alone is miserable to enjoy, as well as his animations. Please fix Billy's animations. There is one add-on that actually helps make him more enjoyable…
-
Which Bubba is stronger?
Any perks can be used for both.
-
Which survivor(s) and killer(s) do you main?
If you have (a) survivor(s) and killer(s) or only survivor/killer that you main, post them in the comments! I'll start: The three survivors I main are Ace, Yui, and Yun-Jin. The killers I main are Clown and Blight, slowly maining Billy as well.
-
For the survivor side, how do hits through pallets feel now?
Just wondering how it feels for those who play survivor, and by that I mean, is it more consistent? Do you still get hit through pallets? I haven't bothered touching survivor yet but I'm wondering how it feels atm. When playing killer it seems a lot more consistent and fair.
-
I don't like the new Trickster
They made him boring to play as and miserable to play against. I genuinely found the previous Trickster to be fun, I don't like this version of him. They nerfed his blade count to 44, made the laceration decay faster, and pretty much nerfed his 1v4 potential since he has to reload more than he used to. I would gladly take…
-
Punctured Muffler makes Billy a lot more enjoyable to play as
Base-kit Billy is difficult to enjoy at times because of how slow the heat dissipates. Punctured Muffler fixes that. It makes the chainsaw recharge at a rate of -5 c/s, from -3.5 c/s. Even with the brown Air Filter add-on he can still be difficult to enjoy. This add-on was base-kit in the 4.1.0-4.1.1 patches but they…

The best killer... you suck at!
Here's something I came up with: Who is your favorite killer (power-wise) that you absolutely suck at? I'll start! For me, it's gotta be Huntress. I personally suck at playing her, aiming ain't what I'm exactly great at. She's really fun to play as, though.
-
Who is weaker?
-
Eruption is actually a really well-designed perk
It's a really fun perk to use. There are no limits to running it, you can literally make it work on absolutely ANY killer because it has no basic attack requirement. It makes use of the somewhat new Incapacitated status effect (which prevents survivors from doing the generator) in order to slow down gens for the survivors…
-
Should they try to make the Huntress's hitboxes accurate?
I feel like it's definitely possible somehow. I'm aware they already tried it, but to be fair Slinger and Trickster have more accurate hitboxes so I don't think it's impossible.

Should survivors have their own menu themes?
