Looking for a deathslinger build for a friend of mine playing on ps5. He has trickster as well, aside from that no other dlc killers, so sorry if that's a touch tricky. All builds helpful

    STBL, Monitor, Corrupt, BBQ/Dead lock, SHPR, etc with Warden's keys/Rusted spike. Monitor not quite as good on him now but still helps. STBL is great on him you can even shoot obsession then break chain to bypass the loss of 2 stacks. Corrupt well we all know why. So he needs some more killers unlocked is what I'm saying lol. Best he can prolly do right now is NWO (Assuming he has unlocked), Noed, Sloppy (if don't have any rusted spikes), andddd still thinking oh how about whispers.

    Agitation, Starstruck and Surge is a fun one I like to Use, 4th slot I like to variate between mostly STBFL, Corrupt, BBQ and Pain Resonance.

    I will give you my personal builds I run and then a build I would run if I didn't have any killers

    First build is

    Stbfl,pop,jolt,corrupt


    I feel like this build overall is very strong and might be his best build in general not counting hex builds if you get your downs in a timely fashion it can be pretty nasty


    Second build is for a bit of a sneaker play style for people that just hold w

    Stbfl,plaything,m&a,toth


    This build has no slowdown really sides from making them want to do totems so the gens can fly sometimes but it does feel more like playing old slinger

    And third build

    Tinker,pop,nurses,shpr

    This build is all about defending gens even tho I don't really think it's the greatest build you can make it work definitely

    Onto the final build if I had no killers

    Hex:ruin,NOED,tinker,jolt

    This is probably his best free to play build imo it's fairly strong although feel free to swap any perk for m&a if you have it unlocked it helps him a lot

    On all the builds you should only really run 3 of his add ons tbh and most of the time doubling up is the way to go imo

    So either double reload

    Double chain break decrease

    Or double terror radius decrease

    Honestly it's not that his other add ons are bad they are just situational you want add ons that are gonna benefit you 100% of the time

    @Nemmy_Wemmy thanks for the mention I enjoyed typing this up

    This, but without the joking. He is so bad now that you might as well run your comfort perks. Or meta. Whatever. Specialized builds don't make sense anymore. That would be like running one for Pig, but at least she is super OP so it might be worth considering.

    Hey now.....STBL, Monitor, Corrupt, Deadlock with CoG/TT or VT/Rs#2 has had DC be the new norm for me. Like you said though she OP so that's prolly why. Can't wait for the update to Last will...add Amanda letter and they no like me anymore. Oh crap or am I thinking of workshop grease....Can't even call myself a Pig main anymore. I suck.

    -Unstoppable: BBQ/POP/Tinkerer/STBFL

    -Most Toxic: CI/M&A/Undying/Devour Hope (Iridecent Coin/green keys add ons)

    -Strongest?: BBQ/POP/CI/Plaything

    -Clean Rank1: Ruin/Tinkerer/Pop/BrutalStrength
