    i use self care, sprint burst (usually unless im in the mood for another exhaustion perk), Adrenaline, and a few options for my last (Were gonna live forever if im trying to get alot of BP, Plunderers if im trying to get some good items, or ace in the hole if im trying to get add-ons, and urban evasion when im not doing any of those)

    Urban evasion, lithe, premonition and depending on my mood leader, technician, kindred or bond.
    Might get one of the Adam perks but I'm currently taking a break. The new tomb raider just came out and destiny 2 was free on psplus hahaha

    I don't have a set build yet, but I currently have No Mither, Resilience, Deja Vu, and Plunderer's Instinct.

    I plan to eventually get Tenacity to help with No Mither, but I'm not sure ultimately what the fourth perk will be. I like Leader (bonus on top of Resilience), Boil Over (slightly improved chances of wiggling out), or Spine Chill (killer detection).

    My main build on Ace is as follows
    Bond
    Open-Handed
    Urban Evasion
    Self Care

    The ultimate in knowing where all my teammates are, who's going for a save, who's being chased, and who is about to bring an angry present to my position is invaluable to me.

    Disclaimer: I’m a Dwight main! So getting that out of the way, I use Dwight’s perks (yes even prove thyself (go ahead and judge me)) and the last perk is a mix up between stake out, spine chill or diversion

    I change it up based on the survivor. Since I've been playing with kate a lot lately I use We're gonna live forever, SC, UE, and boil over lol.

    Boil over is definitely only useful based on the map and if you plan around setting it up. I've been having more and more games where the killer will realize I'm going to wiggle out. So they just drop me and take off or won't even pick me up. I've even gotten hate mail because I wouldn't let the killer hook me lol.
  • Rebel_Raven
    Rebel_Raven Member Posts: 1,775

    Depends on my survivor.
    Feng: Deja Vu, Technician, Lithe, self care.

    Nea: Deja Vu, Lithe, Urban Evasion, self care.

    Don't have anyone else I've leveled much. Looking forward to teaching Window of opportunity. Sprint Burst will come after Urban Evasion gets teachable.

    Wglf instead of bond for points.
  • serabeth90
    serabeth90 Member Posts: 100

    Window of Opportunity
    Bond
    Exhaustion perk (usually Dead Hard, but could also be Sprint Burst or Lithe)
    Literally any other perk; I like to switch things up. Frequent ones are: Self Care, WGLF, Plunderer's Instinct, We'll Make It, and Borrowed Time.

  • Mringasa
    Mringasa Member Posts: 980

    We'll Make It and Lithe I use as soon as I get them. I'll sometimes run Kindred (2 or 3), Botany Knowledge/SC as a pair, Urban Evasion, Plunderer's, Open Handed in conjunction with Kindred 3, Empathy. Depends on what I feel like doing. WGLF I use when playing full Doctor mode with WMI, Botany, Empathy. So I can heal people, get those unhooks, and not be a dick about farming WGLF stacks. Normally try to take a medkit too for those times you need seriously fast healing.

    I'm still working on Prestiges for my Survivors though, so mostly it's up to RNGesus to decide my loadout. Currently using SC, SB, Kindred 2, and We'll Make It as I level my Laurie since that's the best build I can make out of the scrap I have. Dislike SB, but I have no other exhaustion Perks so might as well use it.

  • se05239
    se05239 Member Posts: 3,919

    Bond and Iron Will, basically. The second two perks are just whatever I feel like, but its usually a rotation of Dance With Me, Lithe, Quick and Quiet, Urban Evasion, Lightweight and We'll Make It.
    I don't use DS, Self-care, Sprint Burst or any of those perks.

    Lithe - Bond - Urban Evasion and one of these, Adrenaline, Kindred or We'll Make It

  • UncannyLuck
    UncannyLuck Member Posts: 210

    Bill - WGLF / Borrowed Time / We'll Make It / Empathy

    Jake - Iron Will / Calm Spirit / ??? / ???

    I like IW+CS a lot even if it's just silly.

  • MacReady
    MacReady Member Posts: 6

    Self care - Sprint burst - Urban evasion - Empathy
    This is my typical build as I like to mostly sneak around and fix gens, but also heal people and get hook rescues too.

  • The_Crusader
    The_Crusader Member Posts: 3,688
    Urban Evasion
    Self-Care
    Dead Hard mostly but sometimes Balanced Landing/Lithe
    WGLF, Borrowed Time.
  • MegMain98
    MegMain98 Member Posts: 2,919
    Meg- Sprint Burst, Adrenaline, Self Care, then a random other one but it is usually between Empathy, Dark Sense, and Urban Evasion

    Claudette- Self Care, Calm Spirit, Iron Will, Urban Evasion or either Quick and Quiet

    Nea- Urban Evasion, Balanced Landing, Self Care, and Empathy

    Those are my three mains
  • Yoshman2523
    Yoshman2523 Member Posts: 6
    Kate- Lithe, Self Care, Windows of Opportunity, Boil Over
    • I prefer Lithe over SB
    • Self Care is a must-have because I Solo
    • I like WoO to gain information before a chase so I know where to go when one starts and also where to go after that pallet/vault has been used
    • I like to use Boil Over more than DS as it isn’t toxic and it’s easy to escape when inside buildings

    Feng: Lithe, Self Care, Urban Evasion, Premontion
    • I like to use a more stealthy style of play when playing as Feng
    • I also like to have a “detecting” perk on her
    • I still have yet to replace Premontion with Spine Chill, but I might just use my Lvl. 3 Alert when the buff comes 

    Meg: Adrenaline, Lithe, Self Care, Borrowed Time
    • I like the comeback opportunities that Adrenaline offers
    • I wanted to have a “give” perk in this build as most of everything else is beneficial only to me
    • I also kind of want to get Vigil to make her more speedy

    Claudette: Self Care, Botany Knowledge Empathy, Kindred
    • Full out support/healer play-style, might remove Kindred with something else later on 

    Laurie: Lithe, Self Care, Decisive Strike, We’ll Make It
    • 100% Toxic Mode when playing her
    • Might Replace DS later on

    Been using Urban Evasion, Iron Will, Sprint Burst, and Small Game. Pretty much for quick finding hex totems and being sneaky and I find the healing nerf to be extensively long for self care or pharmacy to heal up.
