    I run Dead Hard/Sprint Burst, Windows of Opportunity, Iron Will and Resilience.

    I don't play Killer yet, it's too stressful for me for now. I mean, I played a bit of Killer games but I had to make a break until I feel ready. I used BBQ and Pop, I liked them and I plan to use them again in the future.

    I like to change it up but I usually play best when it's:

    Killer - Tinkerer + Bamboozle + Coup + Corrupt or Oppression

    Survivor - Iron will + Sprint burst + Vigil + Windows or Breakdown

    Hard to say as killer. Every killer has a build that "works" for them, but wouldn't "work" on other killers. Should, you could just run slowdowns and do generally well..but why?

    As survivor: Iron Will (cause I main Bill), WGLF, Spine Chill, Botany

    I don't run exhaustion or second chances because I'm actually good at the video game.

    on survivor i run many perks such as saboteur, head on, diversion, blastmine, babysitter, no mither, vigil, distortion, and more (i don't like running meta perks instead i run forgotten perks with certain builds that make them good

    on killer i run a lot of different perk builds such as

    basement bubba

    tombstone myers

    gen hostage doctor

    ninja spirit

    mad grit legion

    jumpscare myers

    ambush wraith

    devour hope billy

    50/50 chance pig

    impossible skill check doctor

    all the builds that you wish didn't exist due to the fact that people like me abuse them for fun

    Killer I run Corrupt, Deadlock, Enduring and Agitation (or BBQ for BP)

    Survivor I run a little bit of everything, I refuse to use Dead Hard though.

    survivor build seems like a support build, very cool and refreshing stuff thats not dead hard ds unbreakable iron will and more (ik u have bt but the world would be a better palce if everyone used it)


    Killer build is decent. also refreshing from ruin undying thrilling etc. corrupt is just needed.


    whispers i dont get tbh, BBQ is good, n oway out is nice and that random perk i dont know so cant say

    killer build is gen control and disturbance, enduring seem pretty good and agitation is alright if you wanna guarantee the hook.

  • RaSavage42
    RaSavage42 Member Posts: 5,549

    Well Whispers lets you know if you are within 32m of a Survivor and you hear the Entity says "yes" or "no" or just growl

    "yes" if you are looking at a Survivor "no" if you aren't

    No Way Out is a perk that stacks as you hook all 4 Survivors once and blocks the exit gates when a Survivor touches the Gate(s)

    And yea... I try to save other Survivors and not myself and do Gens... You know be a team player cause I can't survive by myself

    Main build: Dead Hard, Borrowed Time, Spine Chill and Iron Will.

    Borrowed Time and especially Dead Hard are almost always in my build. Spine Chill and Iron Will are slots I'll sometimes change. E.g. I'd probably be using both Boon perks right now if the healing one was working.

    Oh, and for killer I always use BBQAC. I usually use Ruin + Undying too and the last perk is not always the same. For my last perk I might use STBFL, Tinkerer, Corrupt or... even NOED.

    My favorite Survivor perk build: Flashbang, Head On, Quick & Quiet and Iron Will or Any Means Necessary.

    I also like using: Lithe and Iron Will, and I swap out the other two perks often. I love using Babysitter, For The People, We're Gonna Live Forever and other fun perks like those! Especially Any Means Necessary!

    And as Killer, I love using: Deathbound, Sloppy Butcher, Nurse's Calling and Pop. I love using Monitor & Abuse as well!

    My main survivor build:

    DS, deliverance, kindred, For the People. Feng main btw

    Some killer builds I like, I play with a lot of different builds but these are probably the ones I run the most:

    Myers - Ruin, corrupt, bamboozle, discordance

    Myers build with the new vanity mirror - Monitor, pop, bamboozle, devour hope. And I typically run dead rabbit with this, so my TR outside of chase is only 6 meters (monitor applies first, then remove 25% of 8)

    Plague - Thana, bbq, infectious, corrupt

    Bubba - ruin, crowd control, undying, bbq (sometimes I swap bbq for discordance). If I feel like using bamboozle instead of CC I'll potentially switch out undying for something else.

    Wraith - blood favor, nurses, bbq, ruin. Just started trying this with new blood favor and I've gotten a lot out of it as long as the totem stays up longer than a minute. Also sometimes I like to run rancor on him if I feel really evil for some reason.

    Doctor - STBFL, bbq, and then two of ruin, devour hope, or pop (I won't typically run ruin and pop together though)

    Freddy - tinkerer, pop, and then usually two of sloppy butcher, bbq, discordance, or stbfl. Also I like using fake pallets a lot even though I know the snares are typically stronger. The pallets are just funny sometimes.

    Ghostface - ruin, haunted, nurses, bbq. Or, nurses, bbq, sloppy, and devour hope.

    Spirit - sloppy, thanatophobia, nurses, ruin. This was with old spirit though, I haven't played her since the update came out and I feel like nurse's probably isn't as good with new spirit so I might switch it out.

    Also once circle of healing is re-enabled I'm probably going to just swap out sloppy butcher from any of these builds for a while since circle kind of defeats it.

    Correction...

    No Way Out/ Corrupt/ Beast Of Pray/ Whispers

  • SoylentPixie
    SoylentPixie Member Posts: 1,192

    I learned long ago I am average at best when it comes to chases so for me its the ambulance build

    Empathy, Kindred, We'll make it, We're gonna live forever.

  • BattleCast
    BattleCast Member Posts: 698

    Trying to find new ways to have fun in our 5 year long stale meta I have come up with a couple of builds:

    Status Effect Legion (obviously not good):

    • Legion Pin + Defaced Smiley Pin
    • Starstruck, Hysteria, Blood Echo, Fearmongerer

    Super Speed Legion (also obviously bad)

    • Etched Ruler + Scratched Ruler
    • PWYF, Nemesis, Fire Up, Bamboozle

    Normal Legion Build:

    • BBQ, Surge, Bamboozle, Enduring

    Support Survivor Build:

    • Prove Thyself, Streetwise, Vigil, Leader

    Oops, All Auras Survivor Build:

    • Open-handed, Windows of Opportunity, Bond, Visionary

    Normal Survivor Build:

    • Spine Chill, Resilience, Balanced Landing, Borrowed Time
  • ShadowNurseZFX

    I'm actually enjoying quite a bit of diversity in builds nowadays, which is really nice. I just wish more killers had more unique add-ons that promoted more unique builds.

    ---

    Killers:

    Ghostface: Corrupt Intervention, BBQ, Play With Your Food, Rancor

    Legion (+ killer instinct range add-ons): Thrill of the Hunt, Third Seal, Ruin, Devour Hope

    Freddy1 (+ skill check penalty add-ons): BBQ, Oppression, Overcharge, Hex: Lullaby

    Freddy2 (Black Box): NOED, Remember Me, No Way Out, Rancor

    Plague: Tinkerer, Mindbreaker, Thanatophobia, Ruin

    Nemesis/Twins: Pop Goes the Weasel, Eruption, Mindbreaker, (whatever else)

    ---

    Survivor:

    Support Build1: Bond, Open-Handed, CoH, We're Gonna Live Forever

    Support Build2: Kindred, For the People, CoH, Balanced Landing

    Support Build3: Situational Awareness, Kindred, CoH, whatever else

    ---

    Despite me thinking CoH is busted, I do like that it makes me more independent (self-heals) while still supporting my team. I do think it needs nerfs, particularly to self heal speed, but it is pretty dang fun to use.

    A fun build I’ve been running on survivor is Fast Track, Detectives Hunch, Streetwise and Built to Last with a commodious toolbox + brand new parts + charge add-on.

    Gens don’t stand a chance.

    My perks for survivor depend on what archive I'm doing currently. And I have completely different builds on all killer with occasion meta perks sprinkled in.

  • RaSavage42
    RaSavage42 Member Posts: 5,549

    It depends on whom I'm playing... I haven't gotten all perks or ones that I'm happy with on some characters

    Pig- oppression/ Surveillance/ Corrupt/ Whispers

    Huntress- Iron Maiden/ Discordance/ Corrupt/ Whispers

    Blight- Agitation/ Pop/ Huntress Lullaby/ Undying (I'm not happy with this one)

    Spirit- STBFL/ Discordance/ Corrupt/ Whispers

    But I do fallow a pattern... if you can't already tell LOL

  • StarLost
    StarLost Member Posts: 8,077

    Currently?

    Killer Sweat: Plaything+Retribution+Pop+Discordance on M1 killers, Devour+Lethal Pursuer+Ruin+x on most others.

    If I'm messing around, probably something silly with Hoarder and Franklins.

    Survivor: CoH+DH+Spinechill+Distortion

  • Thusly_Boned
    Thusly_Boned Member Posts: 2,951

    Really a lot of variance, especially with my 3rd and 4th perks

    Survivor: We're gonna live forever, Borrowed Time like 99% of the time. Sometimes Sprint Burst/We'll make it as 3/4, lately Detective's Hunch/Inner Strength (inner healing now, I guess) to try and counter all of the NOED going around. I'm definitely an outlier, but I never run DH or DS. Like 3-4 times total in 700+ hours of survivor.


    Killer: BBQ all the time. Ruin most of the time, the rest is a whole lot of variance, complementing whichever killer I am using. Pop + Oppression quite a bit, I guess. I'm all ears is clutch on Pyramid Head. For slow/stealth killers, Corrupt Intervention is a must.

  • MrDardon
