Thank You BHVR For The Build Of All Time
Certainly the build of all time.
Bamboozle… on a Killer that hits through windows and doesn’t really vault.
Machine Learning… Machine Learning.
Rapid Brutality… on an M2 Killer.
Monitor and Abuse… actually not a bad perk for Xeno.
Thanks BHVR.

Don’t sleep on rapid brutality on xeno. Pair it with STBFL and it is soooo strong.

Yes… but there isn’t STBFL in this build. ):

You don’t vault as Xeno, so suddenly vaulting very fast is sure to catch survivors by surprise.

I know! I’m just saying, STBFL + RB is super strong with an m2 that allows you to never lose stacks.
0 -
You could also go with STBFL and drop Rapid Brutality. 8 stacks is still enough to get a M1 into M2 before the survivor can make it pretty much anywhere. Both is just overkill in my opinion.
On the topic: Can anyone explain to me why they think Monitor is such a good perk on Xeno? I think it's highly overrated because you're going to approach survivors from inside the tunnels anyway. So your TR is actually a non factor when it comes to engaging in a chase.

24-meter Terror Radius in Crawler Mode gets reduced to a 16-meter Terror Radius.
Also going into tunnels disables all Flamers so people will know if you are in the tunnels, their motion sensors also beep aggressively and detect you from further away when you are in/leaving the tunnels, MaA gives you more flexibility in your approach.

Ok. I see the point but it still seems like a bit of a "don't fix what's not broken" thing to me. It's not like survivors will abandon their gen every time Xeno uses the tunnels. And if they do it's free slowdown + info for the killer. I'd use pretty much any info perk over MaA.

It's a build to try out. It's not supposed to make you win your games instantly.
I encourage you all to maybe take things less seriously and try new stuff.
Becoming too reliant on certain build is a bad thing I feel.
Maybe try it out. Sometimes you fall in love with something niche.

I would change MaA for Bloodhounds for a more random build.
I dont get why machine learning needs 2 kicks to trigger :S.

Now I understand why the balance of this game is so dreadful.

It just reminds me of the Escaping A Chase promo they did, I find it funny, nothing else really.

Honestly, I'm actually pleased their putting together builds to try which aren't expected and may give players an invitation to experiment more. Not sure whether the build is good or bad and I don't care either way; I'm just pleased to know this is an idea by the multimedia team to give people things to try and I would love it to see more of it.

I think it's fine? Bamboozle to cut off strong vaults (especially ones at hard angles to tail whip) is perfectly reasonable, Rapid Brutality is a strong perk that will help for when you're knocked out of your power, Monitor improves the stealth component of your basekit. Machine Learning is a bit of a weird odd one out, it doesn't seem like it has much synergy with the rest of the build? Like, sure, it's another "stealth + speed" element in a build that already has that, but the way it works doesn't seem to add much to this build. Probably the one I'd swap out if I were to try this.
It's just meant to be a fun build to try out, not the most competitive/strongest build possible.
That was a crossed wires situation, iirc. Sprint Burst was meant to be Quick & Quiet, they weren't actually suggesting pairing Sprint Burst with Lithe.

I am going to try a stealth-build on Xeno, been watching the movies and Xenos love to hide and be sneaky. Gonna try not to announce my presence so often.
Don't know if it will win, but if I get some jumpscares it will be fun.
0 -
Stealth is really not working on Xeno. Survivors are always putting turret next to gens. So there is no way to get surprise hits with him.
1 -
Bamboozle is actually great on Xeno especially shack because they can't fast vault the window meaning you don't have to take that shot at a weird angle and it's pretty much a free health state, it's the same reason bamboozle is pretty good on plague.
0 -
You're right, that didn't occur to me at all.
0 -
they should put brutal strength instead of monitor&abuse. that would be a good meme build.

I faced a Xeno who ran bamboozle last night and... it was strangely effective. He was weird though, and kept leaving us slugged. Eventually I jumped into a locker during chase to force him to grab me, but instead he stood outside the locker the entire game. No joke. I waited in there until all gens were done and exit gate was open. He downed me when i exited but then let me wiggle off and leave lol one of the top 10 strangest games I've played.

I've done that with Jumpscare Mikey when I just want to mess around. Scare the survivors, two hook everyone and then just slug everyone who is on two hook, let them get picked up (or pick them up or let them wiggle off if their blood meter is low so they don't bleed out), do gens and leave (and smash pallets on me if they want). I've even seen a survivor get 40K a couple of times when I've done that. If the Xeno wasn't hooking or going for a 4 person slug they were just messing around for fun and BP.
It's a nice way to end your playtime especially if you had stressful matches because everyone leaves happy with lots of BP. I picked specific Killers (Jumpscare Mikey and Bubba) to do it on so it didn't mess up matchmaking on games where I'm looking for an actual challenge.
