Heroic Charge

Hey guys,


I've been a long time fan since nearly the beginning, love the game on both sides (Killer/Survivor).

One thing that I've always thought the game lacked was a way to save your fellow survivors from a final hook during a chase.

I usually play killer, but since introducing Dead by Daylight to my love, I've been rockin Survivor more often the past 2 years.

I always thought it would be pretty badass for a survivor to some how slam into the Killer while he/she is chasing their food before the survivors final hook.

I want to throw an idea out to the community, and hopefully the devs to take into discussion/consideration.


Imagine a fellow survivor is being chased, you haven't been hooked yet, this fellow survivor has already seen their second stage; one more and the entity has their soul.

You, (for me personally) are feeling fairly empathetic and can see the staggering chase coming to it's conclusion.

You notice the chase is heading in your direction, the killer on your fellow survivors heels.

You step behind a tree, your fellow survivor runs by, then as you gain sight of the killers side you press your ability button and slam right into the killer.

Maybe giving the killer a 1/2/possibly 3 second dazing stun; thus giving your fellow survivor a chance to gain ground.

You on the other hand... well, now death is staring at you.


Let's flip this, same story.


Fast forward to this brave survivor hiding behind a tree as you see your food crying, gasping for air, leaving their marks of fear for you to follow.

You see this brave soul peeking around a tree, watching, plotting.

As you run past this tree, you immediately turn to face this brave soul charging at you in a fruitless attempt to save their friend.

You press your action button and snatch this brave soul by the throat, no stun, no daze, free food.


I'm not sure the kind of changes this kind of mechanic would do, or the kind of rippling effect it could cause with all the killers/survivors, I just thought it'd be cool to give the survivors something if they're feeling brave enough to save a fellow survivor, a friend, or a loved one about to get sent to hell.

Sorry for the long post, and thanks for reading. :D


See you guys/gals in the fog.

    Well, guess it will be quite funny and useful at some point. Like, you could break a chase for tunneled survivor.

    kinda like a charge like dead hard but with a hitbox that stuns the killer?

    maybe if it injures you and exhaust you itd more balanced

    yea, if it injured you in the process I would be okay with it.

    If it injured you I would love a cool animation of the killers weapon stabbing through the survivors stomach area.

    The survivor pushes the killer but catches themself on their weapon at the same time, obviously if an injured survivor does this they'll push themselves off the blade of the weapon and then collapse to the ground

    Imagine trying to hook a survivor when a 4 man SWF runs this
