    I would go for some of the recolours of his default outfit ("Aces and Eights") in colours like dark brown, dark grey or green. Probably the black/maroon one for the shirt, charcoal jeans, and rust or dark green for the hat.

    The High Roller outfit is actually better than the Aces and Eights (Charcoal Version) tbh, the deep purple really makes it easy to blend in with most backgrounds, since that shade of purple is quite dark and hard to see sometimes.

    Both work though for a stealth approach to Ace, or in this case an "immersed" approach.

    Oh im seeing this it would be quite good once in game. Well what about his hat or his pants? bc the pants are dark black on that outfit and his head is just slicked back on that outfit.

    Thanks for the response! @FireHazard

    Less accessories and more stealth 😉

    Also, no problem.

    @FireHazard ok one last thing, Im thinking the dark red hat would be best for the hat to go with the high roller - money maker jacket, since its closer to color to said jacket. What do you think?

    Same for the pants, im thinking dark red, let me know what you think. Itll be more uniform in color so it should do pretty well.

    Unless you're going for style than the hat isn't needed, if he has a slick back hair style it's less likely to see in the dark because he's not wearing a clashing color to the deep purple of his bathrobe or whatever he's wearing.

    Personally, if you just wear nothing on your head than it's a lot better for your stealth. Also, the Dark Floral Trousers are a lot easier to see than you think, i'd go with the Fortuitous Jeans (Charcoal) personally. If you can't resist using anything other than the Ready to Roll head than try using the Bouncer Beard, I personally think that's better for stealth.

    @FireHazard I was actually thinking of Furtuitous Jeans (Dark Brown) as its closer to that reddish color. What are your thoughts on it?

    Ok so Bouncer beard is better then Ready to Roll? Just wanna be absolutely sure so i dont waste my iri shards lol

    I would recommend Ready To Roll above Bouncer Beard, personally. Most of the Bouncer Beard head is shaved, and light skin is easy to see. Having different colours doesn't mean that an outfit won't be able to camouflage - remember that the environment you're trying to blend into has different colours as well. Think about camouflage print in real life, like the army wears. The way to blend in is to cover your body as much as possible in the colours of the environment you're trying to blend into, which is why I recommended dark brown, grey or green outfits, because there's a lot more of those colours in the DBD environments than there are dark reds or purples.

    So you're thinking I should go with Black/maroon, charcoal jeans, and rust/green hat or no hat then? Currently for the head peice im using Sharp Ace

  • Fibijean
    Fibijean Member Posts: 8,342

    Sharp Ace is probably fine if you're unsure, but I think a cap would probably be better. The black/maroon Charmed Jacket is probably about the same as the Money Maker Jacket as far as blending in goes, I just recommend the former because it's cheaper, and also doesn't have any bright spots from the front.

    What I would recommend is getting the cosmetics you know will be useful, like the dark jeans and jacket, and trying them out in a game with the hair you currently have. If it works, keep the hair, but if you find that you're not blending in as well as you would like, then you can fork out on the cap.

    I personally disagree that a Red cap would benefit him in a stealth scenario for many reasons, different maps can clash with the red colors and I don't think it really adds anything in terms of stealth, in fact I think it makes it worse tbh.

    Having no hate and just slick back hair or a dark beard can honestly go miles in terms of stealth. In the end, whatever he chooses is up to him style-wise, since if you just hide behind a rock or a tree than the Killer won't really see you at all.

    If he was going for a "In plain-sight" stealth build than darker tones is his best option like the deep purple High Roller jacket with the Dark jeans and Bouncer Beard, I personally think a Red Hat would just clash with the other colors and make him stand out. In the end, a Red Hat or no Hat isn't going to make a giant difference.

  • Fibijean

    I agree that red is a bad colour, but I never said the cap had to be red. In fact, I recommended the dark green, grey or brown, not the red.

  • FireHazard
    FireHazard Member Posts: 7,314

    I think Brown would be the best of the options, since brown, grey, and black colors can really make you blend into most backgrounds.

    Again though, hat or not hat is entirely optional, most of the stealth clothes falls under the pants and shirt for the most part.

    Ok this is what im wearing so far, should I change anything? @FireHazard its worked so far for me.

    Or should i change something.

  • Fibijean
    Fibijean Member Posts: 8,342

    If it's working for you, stick with that 😊 The goal is just to get something that works well, so if that outfit is doing the job, no need to spend extra currency on different clothes as well.

    I honestly think that's fairly good for you to use in-game, it's pretty dark for most of the backgrounds of the maps in-game and it's fairly stylish in my opinion.

    I personally think this is a good combination for you to use in your stealth build!
