Explain Your Main Killer Build

Killer: Pyramid Head

Perks: BBQ, Tinkerer, Nurse's calling, Sloppy butcher.

Add ons: Anything that increases punishment of the damned.

Being able to stealthily attack survivors through walls is a huge advantage with this build.

Killer: Pig

Perks: Agitation, Iron Grasp, Mad Grit, Surge (technically a meme build, but given how I've been using it for quite a while now, I'll count it)

Add-Ons: Any of the Pig's actually useful add-ons (and Tampered Timer sometimes)

Agitation + Iron Grasp + Mad Grit allow me to run to a gen or potentially even chase+hit a Survivor while carrying another Survivor on my back (even if I'm not going at the full 115% speed). Even though I don't like Surge all that much in a vacuum, I find it to be the gen slowdown perk that best synergizes with the aforementioned "chase while carrying" strategy, as it allows me to regress a gen without interrupting the flow of downing, picking up, and running.

Hag: Corrupt Intervention, MYC, BBQ&C, PGTW w/setting speed or teleport range addons.

Spirit: Corrupt Intervention, BBQ&C, Sloppy Butcher and Stridor/STBFL w/duration and speed addons, occasionally reappearance/lunge addons.

Pig

Fire Up/Brutal Strength/Bamboozle/Whispers

Double +1 Box add-ons

Not my strongest build, but one of my favorite fun ones.

Killer: Deathslinger

Perks: Monitor & Abuse, A Nurses Calling, Pop Goes The Weasel, Discordance

Add Ons: usually none (though i would recommend reload time and reeling speed add ons)

The perks have a really ice synergy with each other and the killer aswell, which is why i really like this specific perk build on him. Monitor & Abuse is pretty obvious, it reduces my terror radius from 24m down to 16m outside of chases, while the maximum range of his redeemer is 18m. this allows for ambush attacks where the survivors dont see it comming - but beware, shots on that distance can be dodged by survivors so if they have map awareness and are not locked in place due to an animation, you will have trouble hitting them.

Two of the other perks, namely Discordance and A Nurses Calling are used to reveal survivor locations to you and allow for said ambush attacks - A Nurses Calling is especially good for that, as its range of 28m allows you to see them before they have any warning of your presence (even withut M&A), and it reveals their exact locations to you, so you can line up a shot very easily. Discordance does reveal them aswell, though you wont get any clear position reveal and will have to guess which side of the gen they are on when you take your sneaky shot. However, Discordance isnt used for just that - it gives you knowledge on which gen should be prioritized in your gen defense (ties in well with Pop Goes The Weasel) and where to disrupt the most survivors at once. With some good game knowledge it also allows you to predict survivor movement and you can tell when someone is hiding around the area, waiting to finish the gen (i prefer Discordance over BBQ in terms of map info and usability).

Pop Goes The Weasel is just there as the main generator slow down perk, it does have quite a nice synergy with Discordance aswell.

(in general i really like the combo of PGTW and Discordance. its one i use on a lot of killers - and i always feel like im missing out when i run BBQ over Discorcance, map info wise... but the BP BBQ gives are just too good to ignore sometimes xD)

Spirit: A Nurse's Calling, Pop Goes The Weasel, Devour Hope, and Corrupt Intervention with duration and speed addons.

Nurse: Infectious Fright, BBQ, Shadowborn, and Corrupt Intervention with addons that decrease fatigue time and increases maximum blink range.

Doctor: BBQ, Distressing, Pop, and Surveillance with Iridescent King and High Stimulus Electrode.

BBQ is a good perk in general, but with Doctor I know where exactly I should use my Static Blast and can be really helpful when playing against hook rushers.

Distressing gives Static Blast a bigger radius so I’ll hit more Survivors with it. It makes my blast the same size as BBQ’s blind spot, so I can use it to reveal anyone hiding near me and screw with some hook rushers. Of course this can backfire if everyone’s in a locker, but it can pretty effective when it works.

Pop is a really good perk, removing 25% of a gen’s progress can be a lifesaver. Doctor being able to stop Survivors from working on gens either through his shock therapy or Madness 3 means that I’ll get more chances to use it and the gen will be regressing longer because the Survivor can’t tap it.

Surveillance is a personal choice. I could probably bring something better like Whispers, Corrupt, or Thrilling, but I chose Surveillance so I know which gens Survivors are pushing at all times. I don’t want to go and use Pop or Static Blast only to find out that everyone’s far away from me on other gens. With Surveillance, I’ll know if Survivors are nearby.

Iridescent King gives me all the afflictions at once so I don’t have to worry about which add-on to take. They may not be that much on their own, but they can be deadly when they’re all active.

High Stimulus Electrode went from meh to one of his best add-ons after its buff. It used to give you a much longer shock range but it took longer to charge it. Now the charge time penalty is gone and this add-on is amazing. You can stop so many more loops with it and get hits in quicker because your shock range isn’t ridiculously small anymore and you don’t have to wait forever for it to charge. It’s done so much work for me and I don’t see myself playing Doctor without it.

Well i don't really have a main build. I usually change it constantly but I'll explain the last one i used i suppose

The Legion

Corrupt Intervention, Knockout, Infectious Fright and Deerstalker

Addons: Filthy Blade, Mischief List (obviously subpar addons but i'm just mixing and matching. If you want to be serious use duration addons)

I wanted to try a build that could slow the game down without relying on gen regression perks like Pop or Ruin.

Corrupt intervention is there to corral the survivors to me and atleast buy me some time to spread some frenzy. I'll be fair it was more a test then anything but a nice thing about Legion is that if you find one survivor the other ones can't pull the wait corrupt out strategy

Infectious Fright is for the snowball. after everyone is injured downs can happen very rapidly if survivors make the smallest of mistakes and even just chasing a nearby survivor untill a pallet drop happens can mean a lot in the long run.

Knockout is to ensure the person i left slugged to chase after the Infectious screamer is still there when i return and Deerstalker is to easilly find them again. You could probably replace Deerstalker but i hate losing slugs and feel bad if they die on the floor so i run it.

Overal this build works very well and almost as good as normal gen slowdown perks although it is pretty reliant on a good start. If you don't get the snowball rolling it can fall flat very quickly but on a whole pretty succesfull expiriment. Used to not see the value in knockout but it's pretty good for M1ers

Legion

Ruin, Undying, Enduring, and BBQ. Double cool down add ons.

Ruin Undying because its easy to defend and get good usage by applying constant pressure with frenzy, Enduring because people in 2021 still think trying to pallet stun Legion during his cooldown animation is a good idea, and BBQ because bloodpoints. Cool down add ons to throw people off guard.

Currently have a 229 win streak with this build.

Killer: Doctor

I run Discordance, Brutal Strength, Pop Goes The Weasel and NOED.

Discordance so I know where to go at the beginning of a match, 9 times out of 10 survivors will immediately hop on a gen together so it’s easy info for me. It also helps me know where I should use Pop, most of the time I can make it in time. Also helpful in knowing where injured survivors are because in my experience, survivors love to gen rush before they bother healing themselves. Sometimes they run adrenaline, sometimes they’re just ignorant. Pop goes the weasel to combat gen rush. Gen rush has been insane lately. Which is why I run NOED. It combats gen rush, survivors not taking the time to cleanse totems and the Adrenaline/Resilence gen rush meta. I shamelessly run NOED, especially after the mori nerf. Survivors love to try to bully me into not running it but I run it on every single build just to spite them :) lmao ALSO brutal strength is amazing, survivors love to loop the same pallets so I just immediately break all safe pallets. Saves me a lot of time to just break pallets instead of chasing around it and being looped potentially multiple times.

Serious

Killer power

• Wailing Bell, i'll never prefer kills over fun in terms of the Killer Power.

add-ons

1. "All Seeing" - Blood, to easily spot Generator jockeys hiding nearby.
2. "Windstorm" - Blood, to cover the map faster.

Offering

• Murky Reagent, since the 2 big Memento Moris are nerfed to what they are now, this is the next best thing honestly: Fog doesn't bother me much, and while you can see and hear a normal Killer, there's no Terror Radius while i'm cloaked, and spotting a shimmer is a lot harder now.

Perks

1. Barbecue & Chili, to see my next target, pairs really well with both Add-ons.
2. Make Your Choice, to keep a Hook-chain going, pairs really well with both Add-ons.
3. Pop Goes The Weasel, to apply some Generator pressure when needed and/or when i have the time.
4. Enduring, to satisfy my pure hatred for stuns in videogames.

Fun

Killer power

• Wailing Bell, something about landing that super-lunge feels great.

add-ons

1. Coxcombed Clapper, to combine with "The Ghost" - Soot, to become a deadly silent duo. These 2 Add-ons on their own can make him quite the scary Killer. Maybe not deadly, but it's almost like a Tier-1 Myers kind-of scary.
2. "The Ghost" - Soot, see Coxcombed Clapper.

Offering

• Bloody Party Streamers, earning BP is pretty much the most "fun" i can make out of an Offering, and idk about y'all, but i personally DO feel better, though it might only be a tiny bit, if i share that enjoyment with others.

Perks

1. Barbecue & Chili, to find my next target for Hex: Devour Hope Tokens, and another reason explained at Bloody Party Streamers.
2. Hex: Devour Hope, the main dish for my fun in DbD, getting those kills is quite yummy, and if it happened every trial, i know i wouldn't enjoy it as much as i do now, it's because they're rare that i find them so yummy.
3. Spirit Fury, another thing i don't really like is caring about Pallets. Now i do have an anti-Pallet build for Wraith of course, but this is my #1 fun build, and the anti-Pallet build ain't my #1. Still, i like saving the Spirit Fury charge for those important Pallets, to (almost) ensure a hit. (And again, to just not care about dem Pallets.)
4. Enduring, see my Serious build's Enduring explanation.

Yeah, i want to have actual fun with Wraith.

Killer: Billy

Perks: BBQ and Chili for finding survivors and that cross map chainsaw, Ruin to slow the game down just a little bit, Enduring for those pallet dives, and the last perk always varies though I'm fond of Sloppy Butcher, Nurses or Save the Best For Last

Add ons; None normally

Killer: Pig

Perks: Sloppy-Corrupt-BBQ-Whispers

Addons: Video tape-Combat Straps

Explanation:

Build: barbecue, stbfl, brutal, ruin.

To make Charlotte just as dangerous in chase when there is none else injured around. Or making all the survivors clustered together injured in the matter of seconds. As well as removing all pallets around. Barbecue and run. So victor can pressure healthy survivors together on a gen away from the gen, regressing it and baiting them into Charlotte. By th me time ruins gone. The games already over.
