    4 tracking perks, her chase power and potential is strong enough on its own

    Sometimes i play perk roulette, but she really doesn't need any specific perks to do well. Generally for serious play i'll run:


    Normal build(s):

    BBQ + Surge + Infectious/Whispers + surveillance (for normal games)
    BBQ + Sloppy + Nurses + Whispers (for blendettes or if i see a team of medkits)
    

    Gen slowdown build:

    BBQ + Surge + Surveillance + ruin
    

    Endgame build:

    BBQ (i love bloodpoints) + NOED + Blood warden + Insidious
    

    Troll/meme builds:

    BBQ + Dark Devotion + Nemesis + Dead man's switch
    BBQ + STBFL + Spirit Fury + Enduring (when using spasmodic breath)
    


    In general, good perks are:

    BBQ

    Ruin

    Surveillance

    Surge

    Sloppy

    Nurses

    NOED

    Infectious

    Whispers

    These days I mainly run Ruin, Infectious Fright, Whispers, and Tinkerer since it got buffed. I got the tinkerer suggestion from @coppersly and it works great on her. It can get you free hits and grabs and when used with ruin you can chase people off gens and get it to activate over and over. Whispers because it helps with early and late game and Infectious cause it helps you build massive pressure easily.

    I'm all ears is a wasted perk on her. When it procs, you don't need it, because the fast vault notification is already a death sentence unless you're in your fatigue and then it doesn't help anyway. And when you need it, it doesn't proc. E.g. quick and quiet.

    Her current meta perk is infectious. Beyond that, it's up to you. A meta build would be corrupt/surge/pop, sloppy/nurse's and bbq/whispers/discordance.

    I'm a retired nurse main, but I didn't change my build from Whispers, NC, BBQ, and Stridor.

    BBQ, Nurses, Agitation, Whispers and no add ons is what I run when I'm just vibing. It's fine for 70% of my games.

    If I'm actually gaming, I go with Corrupt, Whispers, BBQ, Sloppy with double cooldown add ons

    Bbq, surge so she doesn't have to waste time breaking gens all the time..tinkerer for pressure and some cheeky hits, and infectious for pressure because she needs it..addons fragile wheeze for recharging and ataxic respiration for less fatigue..used to run double recharge but I found I liked this combo more for staying on track with the survivors

    I usually run I'm All Ears, Infectious Fright, Whispers and Dark Devotion.

    BBQ, pop, corrupt intervention and Shadowborn. You can replace pop with nurse's calling, it's good too. Shadowborn sigificantly reduces my chase time by helping to react quickly after a blink.

    My typical build is Monitor and Abuse, Pop Goes The Weasel, Discordance and Nurse's Calling. I also like to run Make Your Choice, so I'll sometimes use that in place of Nurse's Calling or Pop! For addons I typically use the pinecone and Fragile Wheeze, and that's usually the addon combo that works best for me.

    Trusty build that took me all the way to rank 2!

    infect fright, knock out, bbq, ruin. wooden horse and metal spoon is my main loadout. good for u nurse players that like an early snowball and want to have good pressure

    I'm so glad to finally see another Nurse run Tinkerer, and to see you're getting the exact benefits I've been talking about is mesmerizing.

    Both of you run IF and I'd love to try to fit it in but there's just no room. Between BBQ, Ruin + Tinkerer, and a tracking perk (Spies) there's nothing that I can really remove. Maybe Tinkerer but I love it too much.

    Well, i'm not exactly a nurse main, but I'm currently playing something like this and it works pretty well:

    Corrupt Intervention, BBQ, Surge and Surveillance.

    If i see a lot of medkits on lobby, i usually ditch corrupt and go for Nurse's Calling.

    Nurse is all about map control and Surge/Surveillance does miracles for her. But if you just want quick matches and kills, slugging builds with infectious fright and/or whispers are good too.
