Fun builds, good builds I want it all

I have played dead by daylight for awhile and especially with recent events. I have gotten to the point where I randomly choose perks by a wheel, stealth builds for all killers, brute force builds with all killers (all perks involved with chasing) and similar with survivor although much easier considering survivors are more skins rather than going down the list of killers due to unique powers. If anyone has builds they would like to share I would greatly appreciate it whether it’s builds to run through all killers or survivors or if it’s just an extremely fun way to play win or lose (talking about you impossible skill check doc). Doesn’t really matter but for those who may comment I’m rank one on both sides to keep in mind and once I play any suggestion I may comment how I did or how I enjoyed it. Hope to have some new, fun, powerful or unique builds to try out.

    Iron Will

    Alert

    Dustorsion

    Lithe or Sprint Burst


    I don't have distorsion yet, I have quick and quiet with lithe.

    In love immersive perks. Since I reached red ranks, I can't face killers which are more skilled than me and I use this build to be hide easily but I can run fast if he find me.

    It's not a "fun" build but I really appreciate this one. And nobody runs the same!

    I call it "Find me if you can, but I can run if you do" lol

    I played with this and it was a good time for me. I don’t really use alert or distortion that often if at all so it was nice to have a change of perks. Any time the killer found me I ran and if injured hid and they were quite lost. I got out and had a good time.

    Glad you enjoyed it! I try to make unique build I create in my mind. Have you a good build for For The People??

    I can Imagine :

    For the People

    Break out?

    Dead Hard (obviously)

    and.. Resilience?

    I don't have test it yet, I'm farming blood points.

    Apart from the standard builds lots of people use, here are a few of my favourite not-so-common/meme builds:

    Survivor:

    The Disappearing build: Lithe / Dance With Me / Iron Will / Resilience

    The "I'm saving my Sprint Burst but at least I walk faster": Fixated / Sprint Burst / Spine Chill / Adrenaline

    Late Game vault: Hope / Adrenaline / Spine Chill / Resilience

    Toxic Gen-Rush: Prove Thyself / Streetwise / Bond / your choice of exhaustion perk + Shroud of Union offering and big Toolbox with add-ons

    Wall-Hacks: Object of Obsession / Alert / Lithe / some other perk you're comfortable with

    Ultimate Immersed P3 Blendette you're never gonna find me Doc mains!: Urban Evasion / Sprint Burst / Iron Will / Calm Spirit

    Can't Hook Me: Flip Flop / Tenacity / Boil Over / Unbreakable

    "I hate killers and I am a tryhard": Balanced Landing + Haddonfield offering


    Killer:

    4 Hex Perks using Spirit: Haunted Grounds / Thrill of the Hunt / Ruin / Devour Hope

    Walking Nurse: Bamboozle / Brutal Strength / Enduring / Spirit Fury

    "Forever" Legion (I got this one from Otz but I find it really fun): Thanatophobia / Dying Light / Sloppy Butcher / Discordance

    (In)visible Wraith: Distressing / Overcharge / Unnerving Presence / your choice of tracking perk + Use the add-on where your terror radius doesn't go away while you're cloaked and the other one being kicking things faster

    Please Bodyblock Me to the Hook: Agitation / Iron Grasp / Mad Grit / something else you want

    Something Something Demogorgon Build: Make Your Choice / I'm All Ears / Save The Best For Last / Corrupt Intervention + Cooldown add-ons to traverse the Upside Down more frequently (the point of this being to set up a portal near a hooked survivor, teleport somewhere else, and then teleport back when they are unhooked to get Make Your Choice value).

    Furtive Chase, Nemesis, Dead Man's Switch, Rancor. Target: your Obsession.

    Now the trick: when you get to the endgame, don't moti with Rancor. Hook them. Furtive Chase transfers the Obsession and you basically have a 100% Make Your Choice situation that can not bestopped by distance or Borrowed Time.

    Also fun during the endgame to see how many people you can convince to smack you with a pallet or blind you. I've been in tears from laughing so hard due to people's stupidity lmfao.

    Tried out the build but don’t think killer took too kindly to play style of breakout and automatic heals so got tunneled in a very literal sense just immediate down and picked back up. Do to hate one might get with breakout possibly decisive to be swapped with resilience.

    My friend has a Freddy build consisting of Thanatophobia, Dying Light or Ruin, Remember Me and Blood Warden. It's evil.

    Had fun with all of these builds. For survivor I had great success with disappearing build but only where it was right and many possibilities where killer gets confused but if too large they’d pick it up again. I escaped with all except toxic gen rush surprisingly but I believe teammates were meming and just having good old time rather than really playing the game so all good.

    killer I have recently done full hex builds on all of them so didn’t need to do that all again. I don’t know why but they were not expecting a walking nurse and mind gamed themselves so hard got a 4K out of it. I know that’s not how it is with that build but was interesting to see red ranks mind game themselves especially because I cannot stand to play nurse. Her constant looking down when blinking and cools down for blinks now I just lost a lot of muscle memory with her so nice to have 4K with a build I shouldn’t win with and better yet no blinking. forever legion I did somehow still win but not sure about the discordance at least I didn’t get anything from it that match. Everything else was fun and pipped with those as well and I’m just really happy somehow for the I want you to body block build I did get at least 3swf with breakout builds and tools boxes so honestly best situation and build to have for it.

    This was actually pretty good at least for game I had. 2 people left left at endgame and one was obsession where I chased them into a jungle gym where I downed them and they were so close to hatch (they had a key) so moried them and I closed hatch where as I closed it some Dwight came around corner I believe to pick up said key but he dropped pallet on me but stayed in place I think looking for it. He got moried too which was awesome and come to find out the key that was brought in had the addon to keep it after death but that takes it out of the game so it was pretty funny.

    Haha that was a little too easy not sure if team was potato but not a single gen done. I two hooked everyone and was like wow no gens done so went made some lunch and still none so didn’t even get use out of bloodwarden or remember me.

    On survivor I like to run an anti-slug build. Doesn't pay off when they pick me up immediately, but if they leave me for even a few seconds, it works wonders. I run Flip-Flop, Unbreakable, Tenacity and Boil Over. Recover faster, put some distance between you and the killer, keep recovery and make maneuvering generally more difficult.

    If you wanna pull a power meme, Borrowed Time, Deliverance, and Dead Hard. I've had so much fun leveling Adam recently. I'm amazed how many killers in red ranks will walk off and leave Adam to his own devices, but when they don't, that's what the Dead Hard is for. I also take Inner Strength, but Iron Will would be just as good.

    Self care

    Botany Knowledge

    Spine Chill

    Resilience


    -You heal yourself and teamates much faster

    -You vault windows/paletts quite a bit faster as well

    -General faster action speed while injured

    -A counter against stealth and low terror radius killer


    A very fun build that isn't too gimmicky and will be certainly useful for almost all your matches.

    Play Freddy with the photograph addon and whatever else you feel like using.

    Perks: Nemesis, Dead Man's Switch, BBQ, RUIN.

    How to play: The photograph makes all gens bleed when you teleport so the idea is you will use nemesis to change Obsession and then down them. After you hook the obsession, for 45 seconds dead man's switch will be active. Use BBQ like always to find what generator they are working on and teleport to it. since you have the photograph it will likely cause any survivor to move off the generator until you've finished your teleport. Dead man's switch blocks the gens and now they have to wait 45 seconds while their generators are untouchable and afflicted by ruin.
