Current Killer and Survivor Builds
What are everyone's current builds looking like now that some time has passed after the "meta shift"?
Personally, I have two killer builds I switch between when I'm trying to win and get some streaks going.
My first killer build is STFBL (or Franklins), NWO, Deadlock, NOED. This is mainly my build when I want to focus on chases instead of worrying about gens going fast. It gives me more time to actually play, and then EG I can usually finish off the people I've gotten to death hook.
My other killer build is Overcharge, CoB, Bamboozle, and STBFL. Just a gen regression build with some anti chase.
For survivor, I don't really run as much meta now. I basically run whatever build I am feeling, but I basically always have OtR. My current build is We'll Make It, OtR, Reassurance, and Wiretap

Well as a Spirit main, I personally enjoy running Jolt, Overcharge, Surveillance, and Lethal Pursuer.
Survivor is a mixed bag but the 4 common perks are usually Lithe, Off the Record, Reactive Healing, and Prove They Self

survivor: BT, Guardian, Adrenaline, NOLB
killer: Mad Grit, Shadowborn, Lightborn, Agitation

My current killer build I'm using on basically all my characters right now is the Anti-Popular Perk loadout
- Discordance (counter to Prove Thyself)
- Fearmonger (counter to Dead Hard and other Exhaustion perks)
- Hex: Third Seal (counter to Windows of Opportunity and other aura perks)
- Hex: Undying (protects Third Seal and gives some tracking info)
It's been working great so far. 😄 I just have to make sure I keep up pressure since I have no direct slowdown.
I don't play survivor that often but when I do it's always Plunderer Ace
- Plunderer's Instinct (See auras of chests and get rarer loot from them)
- Open-Handed (increases all aura ranges for all survivors, stacks with Plunderer's.)
- Ace in the Hole (get rare add-ons attached to items from chests)
- Appraisal (you can Rummage empty chests for an additional item.)
I always bring in a cheap toolbox, go straight for a generator near a chest, and use up the toolbox on it right away. Then I loot the chest and see if I can get something other than a flashlight or key and use that next. Rinse and repeat.

Current Survivor, I don't have a lot of friends and I play strictly solo.
- Situational Awareness (I know Kindred is generally preferred but as I said in another thread this often has got me extra escapes)
- Prove Thyself (Obvious Situational Awareness combo)
- Lithe (the only sprint perk I have unlocked for everyone)
- Usually something character specific. I have played a ton of Rebecca Chambers lately so it's usually been Reassurance
Killer I tend to run far more varied, themed builds. The most common thing I run is an Iron Grasp/Scourge Hook: Flood of Rage combo but even then I'm not running it for everyone. I'd call Leatherface my main and I run:
- BBQ & Chilli (It's still good without the points bonus, just not top level)
- Iron Grasp (it combos great with all the hook perks)
- Scourge Hook: Flood of Rage (I know this isn't the most preferred one in the meta but I find the extra info super useful)
- No Way Out (I've expermimented with a few different things in the fourth slot and this is the current one. Nasty, uncounterable perk)

bamboozle is crazy good on wesker, I'd argue he is the killer that gets some of the most value from it.

yep

Survivor, usually SoloQ:
- Bond. Probably the best SoloQ perk.
- Prove Thyself. Because I want the bloodpoints, I don't care about making the gens go faster.
- Dead Hard. Hell yeah.
- Resilience.
On most killers I play often:
- Agitation. Many maps have bad hook spawns and it goes well with
- Pain Resonance. The best slowdown without needing to interact with a gen.
- Thrilling Tremors. Mostly for info.
- STBFL or Mad Grit. Depends on the killer.

Survivor: For the People, Reassurance, Deliverance, Adrenaline
I'll switch out FTP for Resilience if there are a lot of med kits in lobby.
Killer 1: Infectious Fright, Coup de Grace, Fired Up, Corrupt Intervention
Killer 2: Corrupt Intervention, Unrelenting, Fearmonger, Fired Up.
Killer3: Infectious Fright, Rancor, Hex: Thrill, Sloppy Butcher
If I see more than 2 flashlights in lobby I'll switch a perk out for Lightborn.
