Favorite exhaustion perk in your opinion

Hey, what's your favorite exhaustion perk? What do you like running with a specific build?


I really like running Dance with me, q&q, lithe and iron will. It's so nice vaulting a window and get completely lost by the killer. I know lithe isn't the best perk, but i really enjoy running it.

    Coming from a killer main's perspective, these are the ones I see the most often from the other side.

    Sprint Burst:

    Annoyance Factor: 5

    Justification: The favorite of every Claudette and Meg with a toolbox, Sprint Burst's biggest downside is it forces the player to walk in order to recharge it. As a killer it can be countered by picking an approach that doesn't allow for a straight line sprint.

    Dead Hard:

    Annoyance Factor: 10

    Justification: Not only does this perk provide a burst of distance but it's invulnerability is absolutely maddening. You can do it over trapper's traps to avoid getting caught for example. Only downside is you can't do another action while it's going so be careful about trying to do it in front of a window or pallet as you may not be able to input the next command in time for the killer to hit you anyway.

    Balanced Landing:

    Annoyance Factor: 7

    Justificaton: Probably the most map dependent of all exhaustion perks. Balanced Landing is downright terrifying on the right map. Balanced Landing on Haddonfield is the exhaustion perk equivalent of hitting the killer right in the balls with a baseball bat. However on a lot of other maps it might not even get used, best paired with a map offering.

    Lithe:

    Annoyance Factor: 4

    Justification: So the thing about lithe is to use it you have to vault which means it's only useful at jungle gyms, killer shack, and t-walls and l-walls, in most of these circumstances the killer will see if you sprint away and may just give up the chase right then, also a lot of time running t-walls jungle gyms is more about careful movement than flat out sprinting.

    Obviously there are other exhaustion perks but these are the ones I see most often.

    Sprint Burst. Head On is more fun, but SB is extremely useful for basically everything.

    I'd go with mindbreaker.

    I love Sprint Burst myself. Sometimes run it with Fixated too.

    Dead hard for sure. That is if dedicated servers allow me to outskill the killer by pressing “E” of course. Sprint burst might be more reliable these days because of that...

    Balanced Landing. Even after the nerf the silent falling + speed burst is just perfect for avoiding killers. SB is nice but too difficult to use on-command. The others are really only useful in chase, which I dislike.

    Lithe for me!

    Balanced landing is a close second 👍️

    Balanced Landing - Pre Nerf.

    Sprint Burst is my #1. It's reliable even with these servers.
