What are your preferred perk builds on Hillbilly?

I think you get a little more lee-way when it comes to perks on Billy and Nurse because (arguably) because of they're mobility they don't absolutely require Ruin to extend the match.

For me: BBQ, Bitter Murmur, Bamboozle, and Nurse's Calling. And Enduring, Tinkerer, Bitter Murmur, Deer Stalker. With Lightborn being swappable with Deer Stalker and Bitter Murmur.

With both builds I've made it to rank 1. I really like the new Bitter Murmur because it pairs very well with BBQ and Tinkerer respectively. I believe that Bamboozle is a core perk like Ruin or BBQ because i just shuts down so much bad map design.

    Barbecue & Chili is a perk that everyone should have while playing Billy. I'd go with BBQ, Ruin, Endruing and Tinkerer. For slugging BBQ, Ruin, Knock Out, Deerstalker. I'd rather play the first build. Works perfectly to me.

    Right now I'm running BBQ/Ruin/Enduring/Whispers. Since I'm off the next couple days, I think I might experiment and run BBQ/Ruin/Tinkerer/Bitter Murmur and see how I like it.

    Some people swear up and down how amazing Whispers is and I just don't see it. Yeah, it'll let you know when someone is nearby but you still have to look for them. And that can waste precious time. It makes more sense to catch them at a gen especially with Billy.

    I use it to know where to not look for them.

    BBQ & Chili
    Enduring
    Ruin
    Whispers

    I play Billy since day 1 of the game, got him P3 Legacy atm, and this is the best build I can suggest, honestly.

    I do the same for every Killer when I am farming(so 80% of the time), but this works especially well with Hillbilly
    BBQ
    (Distressing, but you can change it since it only effects in-match bp)
    ToTH
    (Ruin, but anything you desire can go here).

    I could also pick Agitation and basement camp by feinting I'm leaving but coming back to get a free rescuer chainsaw hit by blocking the stairs.
    Up to you, if you want a dynamic game that empathize leaving the hook, or a camping game because "it's not worth checking that gen at the opposite of the map because you don't know if someone is there or not".

    imo, BBQ & Chili is a non-toxic option in this case, allowing killers to be rewarded (for once) for leaving the hook. If you don't want it to be the case, I'm not sure you understand what the other possibility implies. Especially because people don't realize it but : Billy is a WONDERFUL camper since he's one of the only killer that can come back to the hook under 10s, wherever he is on the map.

    I like Enduring but I feel like it's best use it's ability to slightly mitigate DS. I'd rather use a tracking perk that helps the entire time. It might be better on M1 Killers.

    I don't have any issues tracking survivors, since they don't even try to hide in the first place. I just use Whispers in that regard to know the overall situation and placement of survivors in the round, which is well enough in term of tracking.

    Well yea, it gives bonus blood points. People that don't even want to run BBQ will run it just for the bonus BPs. This game is very grindy and requires tons of BPs. I even use it on all my slow killers because the BP bonus is too valuable to give up. Since you didn't know that, I'm going to assume you play a survivor main or just brand new. You should really try both sides before you tell the community something is broken or not.

    actually, this build started as a meme build, but i really started to like it, so here you go:
    -BBQ&Chili
    -Bitter Murmur
    -Monitor and Abuse
    -Ruin
    (the meme build had tinkerer instead of ruin, but i had to switch it out, thanks to genrush)
    The whole point of this build is, that you can seee them, but they cant see you. It is funnier with Tinkerer, but again, genrush .-.
