Who to level first (Killer)
Hello everyone, I would like to play Hag/Demo/Pyramid/Deathslinger as my mains (dunno which I will play yet), but I know I will need perks from other killers. I always tried to get ruin and bbq and then play Nurse (Before both got reworked), now I dont know what I should get after that for the 4 killers.
What would you recommend to level up after bbq? and any tips on how to make leveling comfortable?
I got the the Shrine the following Perks already: Brutal Strength, Pop Goes the Weasel, Thrilling Tremors and Ruin.
Thank you in advance

Level up Myers he got pretty good Perks i use STBFL on almost all of my Killers.

Don't.
On a serious note it's not a good idea that Hag, Pyramid or Deathslinger are your first killers. I would suggest a simpler killer first like a Bubba(my first main) he is not trash as he used to be and hes pretty simple to learn making him a nice beginner killer. Plague has some very nice perks like Corrupt Intervention and Infectious Fright both useful on multiple killers.

Out of the ones you listed, Demo is the one I consider the best.
He's got teleportation and a charged lunge. His portals also offer detection abilities. And he's got his scary scream and chase music.
I've also had a few beers. Good times.

Yeah only a drunk person would consider Demo the best out of those four. 😂

I played as killer before to rank... 11 or 10 i guess, on nurse and bubba. Currently im playing survivor, so i think "know" how to think as survivor xD Thank you for your suggestion, I may play reworked bubba again just to see how he feels now
I think of using STBFL + Play with your food on demogorgon (with rat liver) for fast shred ( 118% speed shred would be funny with PWYF and noed) and completely ignore the obession. Oh and rancor to spice it up.
so should I level adiris first for her 3 perks and then myers?

Discordance
Monitor and Abuse
STBFL
would be my choices in that order.

If you're using teachables as your primary decision making factor out of those 4 killers, the better teachables other than Ruin in order are Trail of Torment from Pyramid Head, Devour Hope from Hag, and Surge from Demo. As far as killer gameplay goes, it's gonna differ from person to person so you're the one who can best answer which killer is more fun for you.

If you are going to play hag and demo, you should level up the pig to get make your choice. Surveillance isn't bad on them either since you have fast travel time.
I would agree with leveling up Plague and Myers as they have very good teachable perks.
I would also level up Spirit as her teachables are very strong.

Honestly, assuming you haven't unlocked it from the Shrine, my first suggestion for Killer to level is Leatherface/The Cannibal. He's relatively simple to play as, but more importantly, in my opinion, he has the most valuable Teachable Perk for leveling in general: Barbecue and Chili.
Leveling him first also means fewer prayers to R.N.Gesus to hope it shows up in subsequent bloodwebs.

Mang. He is the best out of them 😀

I usually suggest playing wraith, he is probably the killer that will teach you the fundamentals of the game, but plague and bubba are great to start as well, plague for corrupt intervension and infectious fright and bubba for bbq and chilli.

I'm in the same boat. For my first killer, I'm just leveling the one I like best. I tried Billy and Huntress at first - holy hell am I crap with them. Can't hit a Chainsaw to save my life - and apparently I'm crap with ranged attacks that have no crosshair!
I switched to Trapper, watched a few vids, and was getting 1-2 kills in games with Rank 1-9 survivors as a Rank 20. When the blind, drunk MMR system accidentally broken clocks its way to putting me against people of similar rank to me, I 3-4 kill every time.
Trapper just speaks to me.

Thanks everyone for the advice!
Thanks to your advice, i level my killers now in this order:
Bubba (level 36) -> Julie/Legion (27) -> Herman/Doc -> Adiris/Plague -> Michael -> Amenda/Saw -> Rin/Spirit -> Billy (Enduring/Lightborn)/Sally(all perks) -> Clown (Bamboozle) -> My Mains -> rest.
or should I switch some killers around?
Is it so easy now to get to rank 1? it was always a challenge for me with rin at rank 10~

Exactly and Dying Light ain't too bad to have in your back pocket if you don't have the other perks yet
0 -
There are only two perks that I feel going into a match I must have I'm not saying everyone in my Killers have them I'm not that lucky but there are two perks Save The Best For Last and Pop Goes the Weasel save me so much you have one and there's a lot of survivors that just Salon Jen and don't pay attention to which ones they're doing and leave 3 right next to each other if you have pop they ain't getting those done

Sit on gens sorry I use voice text

Oh no - I'm only Rank 17 now. But MMR I guess reset this week or something, so I've been playing a lot of really good players that I probably shouldn't be playing against.

First would be Bubba for BBQ so you can earn BP faster. Franklin's is also really good now as a counter to keys.
Next do Clown for Pop Goes The Weasel. Bambo is also not bad.
Last I would say level up Plague. All her perks are good. You mainly want Corrupt and Infectious, both top tier, but Dark Devotion is good for certain builds or killers.
After that go nuts.

Leatherback for BBQ and Chilli and definitely grind during the cake events :)

After getting BBQ from Bubba, as others have stated either Myers or the Plague. Both are good killers and their perks are used on a variety of Killers/Builds.
0 -
If you can afford Bubba, then BBQ is a top choice. Plus, with his rework, you can actually use him.
0 -
What is dark devotion good on? Ive been experimenting with nurse.
0 -
Hands down: Bubba to get BBQ
0 -
If you haven't, level up nurse. Nurses calling is amazing on any killer and then thanat on legion and stridor spirit. Then possibly billy and spirit for enduring and spirit fury.

I don't know about "good", but I like using it with the Doctor for Terror Radius shenanigans. The Doctor's powers are tied enough to his TR that Survivors won't expect him using Undectable.
You could possibly also have fun on it with Tier 3 Michael Myers.

It combos nice with Nemesis. I've used it mostly on Ghostface but it works for a few killers.

Thanks

Lately I've been in love with Nemesis (Oni) Rancor (Spirit) Deathbound (Pyramid Head) and Furtive Chase (Ghostface)
Even if they get those gates open someone's not going to leave that match alive.
