What's the best killer for farming?

I'm trying to get bp for the next killer and wondered what killer and effective perks get the most bp. So far been using The Shape with Distressing, Thrill of the Hunt, BBQ and Chili, and Ruin to get 50-60k every round.

    BBQ/Distressing are always great combos and instead of say Thrill/Ruin which can easily get destroyed throw in Rancor and say Bitter Murmur or Agitation for faster hooks.

    For farming you can go Myers with his Scratched Mirror then use Lery's offering and rampage for tons of points. Wraith if you know how to play him with his all seeing eye combo is evil as well. Doctor with Distressing and Gideons isn't fair either.

    I main Spirit and if I'm going for jump scare I'll swap out Distressing for M&A or sometimes even keep it because it makes people run out of hiding before you even get to their location.

    I like ruin with thrill since it helps me locate survivors and slow the game down just a little bit.

    The Nurse is the best killer for farming when mastered in my opinion. You always get 28K or more with her per game, even more if you use BBQ.

    Usually get 50-60k with myers, I get 35-45 with doc but I don't have distressing on him. Myers gets tons of points from just stalking and distressing really boosts that.

    You can also farm with The Doctor, using Distressing, Barbeque & Chili, Hex: Thrill of the Hunt, Hex: Ruin!

    Nurse is probably the best. You can finish the game real quick and get all BBQ stacks.
    Sure, you might get higher points within a single game with killers like wraith or doc, but its all about time efficiency, isnt it?

    But of course you need to be a good nurse, otherwise it wont work :smile:
    I can also recommend hag

    Just play well with Billy/Nurse/Huntress/Spirit and you'll get more points faster than doing some farm build.

    Freddy gets an extraordinary amount of points once you mastered the heckling/hit and run. You will max out deviousness and brutality in no time.

    Might grind more points into nurse, doc, and freddy to see. I just get efficient games with myers because of his overall kit and how easy it is to find survivors unless they are SUPER IMMERSED or corn maps but I can use the tractors for tracking :/.

    How does Huntress figure into this? Aside from Thrill of the hunt which doesn't factor in anymore once destroyed, iirc.
    And Thrill of the hunt has potential to be taught to other killers.

    I think the only way she gets points outside the norm is with hatchet hits.

    if all you care about is BP, id recommend you to play Freddy.
    and before you come here and LOL rate this, please hear me out!
    i know Freddy is the weakest killer in the game. still, you will get tons of points playing him, due to the fact that he will always use his ability when doing an action with the survivors, which grants him massive amounts of bonus points.
    e.g. when you find a survivor and tag them, you get 150 dream demon points, then 200 survivor found points, then 500 dream chaser points, then 300 brutality points and another 300 brutality points, 500 hook points and the additional chaser points. and this is only one hook.

    I know freddy is strong getting points, problem is dealing with coordinated teams and having the games end too early. Plus him and doc are add-on reliant, I get non sweaty 2-4k on brown add ons with myers.

    well, you've asked for a killer who is good at farming BP, not for a killer who is effective.
    as i've said earlier, freddy is great for the BP, but he sucks when you want to keep a certain rank.
    also, i'd recommend you to run vanilla freddy without any add ons, cuz otherwise you'd be forced to spend the BP you've just earned on him in order to get the add ons back you've just used.

    If you want to run Distressing anyway, better go with a killer that benefits from a bigger TR; like Doctor.

    I think most killers can be good for farming points if played effectively. Except for the Pig probably, in the deviousness category she simply doesn't get many points. Also for the case of the Trapper, you can have games in which any of them will step on your traps denying him for deviousness points. Leatherface is another killer which can be looped by good survivors and not getting to chainsaw them, leading to a poor performance in deviousness. Other than those, I think the rest can do fine.

    The Nurse is just the Nurse. If played well and you blink efficiently, you can farm Deviousness and Brutality at the same time, and probably you will 4K leading to max in Sacrifice. I tell from my experience that I feel it's the Nurse the killer which I usually get more points per game on average (if survivors don't DC of course, which also happens form time to time).

    might try that out, been looking at beast of prey instead of distressing since the point gain is stronger.
    EDIT: Scratch mirror gives garbage points cause it cant stack with distressing :/

    I'm getting 8-10k easier with myers than with doc so idk, more staring, less shocking imo plus it's easier to down people with and get bbq stacks. I'm using both though

    Looking at the wiki, I'm surprised that Myers is really the only killer with bp add ons.

    BBQ and Distressing are the usual perks people take. BBQ is good because you get bonus points and it reveals locations. Distressing gives bonus points BUT the downside is it increases your terror radius.

    This is why people take Doc - because he benefits from a larger terror radius due to the madness effect.

    Freddy in herr is also a decent suggestion. His terror radius isn't affected until they're in dreamworld so you can still sneak up on survivors. Once they're in the dreamworld you've got them so the larger terror radius doesn't matter.

    Spirit may be ok to. A larger terror radius just gives her a larger area with no phasing sound.

    All the rest suffer though as it just gives survivors a bigher warning that you're in the area.

    I generally max deviousness and brutality on Spirit every game, even if I don't end up with a 3-4k.

    That's usually why I take it on Myers, survivors usually freak out when you hit tier 3 and either hide or run. I run the same thing on Doc and it feel less effective both playstyle and bp and it just feels like more ability usage with less of a trade off. Might grind points into spirit, I like playing her but she is so add-on reliant like Doc.
