I currently am unable to play for a few weeks and I was going to try some new survivor builds out and see if they are fun. Is it possible someone can test out the build for 1 or 2 games and see if it's a good build?

The build is

Blood Pact

Iron Will

Leader

Desperate Measures

I know this may seem bad but I'm curious since I just thought it up. Can anyone try it out and see if its good?

Edit: im changing around the build to another one I had in mind. Rookie Spirit from what im getting from others is bad.

    I have a habit of trying out mostly random perks to see what combines well.

    I put Blood Pact for some aura reading and healing coverage

    Iron will for stealth as well as to make being injured more bearable at least untill I'm healed with Blood Pact

    Lithe for some distance since I consider it a great exhaustion perk

    And Rookie Spirt to sorta help find generators but mainly for the reasons mentioned above (I know there are way better options)

    It's not the worst build, but not much meat there either. Iron Will currently is bugged so you make no sound at all apparently not even just from walking or running. Lithe's fine, but I would have went with Sprint Burst. This build might be alright if you play with a group, but solo I wouldn't run it without swapping something for Adrenaline and either Bond or Kindred. That's just my take.

    I think your right. I usually play in a group witch give me more freedom to experiment with builds like this. I might need to swap something.

    I don’t think these synergize well, bro. Everything is random like you said. What kind of data are you looking for to report back? Fun? Usefulness? Escape percentage going up, down, or remaining the same?

    I haven’t run this build but I did try running Rookie Spirit for a while and gave up on it. It provided almost no value at all in any of my matches, and I’m playing solo so it’s not like I’m on comms with anyone.

    I thought it might give me some use but it was basically a wasted perk slot. Might be good for lower ranks I guess.

    Rookie Spirit is the one I'd replace for something that works well with Iron Will and Blood Pact, maybe Bite the Bullet, Desperate Measures, Bond, or Spine Chill to make it a more altruistic/immersive geared build. Really it depends on what you need help with in game, like if your map knowledge is pretty good Rookie Spirit is a wasted slot, and what kind of play style you want to approach the match with.

    For example my biggest problem as survivor is escaping chase so I bring Lithe and Iron Will and as a solo queue player I always bring something to heal myself so my go to healing perk is Inner Strength and in solo queue you can't coordinate saves easily so I bring BT to give us more of a chance. The way I play is to be more of an everyman for the team to fill whatever role is lacking, like if I see nobody is going for the rescue I'll be the team unhooker and healer or if no gens have been done for a bit I'll switch gears to gen jockey mode.

    I changed the build up a but based on what people have said.

    I think I'm looking for both fun and usefulness.
