What kind of builds people run with her? What are your "go-to" fun builds for her? They do not need to be metabuilds.

    my personal fav builds (I build around killer Teachables and obscure addons when possible. The fits go with the builds too. Makes the whole process more fun for me as each build kinda has a different character)

    Shaman Spirit (ruin, undying, pentimento, haunted grounds. Addons: Muddy Sports Cap, Rin’s Broken Watch. My “sweatiest” build)

    Brute Spirit (Spirit fury, enduring, brutal strength, agitation. Addons: Kintsugi Teacup, Kaiun Talisman. Some people use uchiwa. I think it’s a trap because ppl will start pre dropping pallets when they see you have spirit fury. I like the extra duration for being a little more patient in phase to get consistent hits. This is very much a “macro” play style build as there’s no gen slowdown, but agitation can help you defend key gens.)

    Chase Spirit (Rapid Brutality, Save the Best for Last, Rancor, No Way Out. Addons: Rusty Flute, White Hair Ribbon. Fast paced build that can finish chases quickly. Pressure the other 3 survs in Chase throughout the game then mori your obsession at the end o7. Rancor is a good information perk too so make sure you take advantage of the position info it gives you throughout the game. I will sometimes flex out Rapid Brutality for Sloppy Butcher, Surge, Languid Touch, or Franklin’s Demise depending on what I see in the pre-game lobby)

    Sneaky Spirit (Pop Goes The Weasel, Eruption, Machine Learning, Mindbreaker. Addons: Furin, Rusty Flute. This is one of my favorite build and it’s built around the Furin addon, but furin is currently bugged so can’t use it currently feelsbadman.)

    pain res + pop + corrupt + nowhere to hide is pretty fun

    you can switch pop with surge and/or nowhere to hide with friends till end

    Brute Force Spirit.

    Add-ons: Kensugi Teacup + Uchiwa

    Perks:

    - Brutal Strength

    - Enduring

    - Spirit Fury

    - Fire up

    Basically, you don't give a damn about pallets and run through all of them. Getting stunned or breaking them allows you to instantly phase again.

    I came back after a 2 weeks break only to find out my main is heavily bugged. There are moaning sounds (from the husk apparently) that are so loud you can't hear a thing. Unplayable for me at this stage.

    Besides that, i found passive perks and M1 perks best on her. Things like Surge, Pain Res and Deadlock, because you can concentrate on chasing and snowballing instead of kicking gens and lose track of survivors.
    Genetic Limits is a good Iron Will counter if you have problem with this perk (it also denies them Dead Hard or Lithe for 8 seconds or so after the hit).
    M1 chase perks like Save the best for last are kinda fun on her, Rapid Brutality is also okay if you play without Recharge Addons.
    Many swear by insta-down perks like Starstruck, i personally found them to be to unreliable against better survivors.

    I rarely play Spirit, but if I do some of the builds I like using revolve around Hubris with Uchiwa and/or Kintsugi Teacup. With that you'd obviously want to use Enduring, potentially Spirit Fury. Really fun to get Hubris value, and Spirit can easily get it.

    Another fun build uses Unrelenting and Save The Best For Last with a mix of charge and recharge add-ons as well as Tsuba and relentlessly going for short phases and swinging for everything. Enduring and Hubris/Fury also work with that. Rapid Brutality isn't awful either if you combine it with STBFL and charge/recharge/speed add-ons.

    Iron Will is viable again so Stridor or Genetic Limits are neat to have.

    Devour Hope is good fun, and also one of the best perks you can be using. Some mix of Undying/Haunted/NOED/Blood Favor/Crowd Control/Thrill/Penti/Dominance with that. Spirit is one of the few top-tier killers that can use Exposed perks, so those are really potent on her.

    I've never tried it but you could maybe make some build around Make Your Choice and Wakizashi work, where you keep phasing away from hook into MYC range and then reappear instantly, hoping someone will unhook during your phase. Either phase duration or recharge with that.
