What Are Some Non-Meta Perks You Enjoy Using?

Killer:

• Huntress Lullaby: people ignore it too much, thinking it's not harmful, but it makes them panic in the end.

• Mad Grit: Just because people STILL somehow don't understand this perk. The amount of times it got me called a cheater.

• Coup de Grace: It really just causes a brain fart in some survivors, they'll just stop to think what just happened there

• Coulrophobia: can cause A LOT of chaos

• Dark Devotion: Cuz it's way too fun on Legion.

• Stridor: Tired of loud af noises that Bill and Ash make? Let's make them LOUDER

• Grim Embrace: Cuz it can turn the tables really quick, super underrated

Survivor:

• Desperate measures: it really takes group heals to another lvls of speed

• For the People: Cuz that second of killer cooldown to attack is more than enough to save someone's life. I don't have the time to set up a flashlight and just take the possibility of it not working. I'm jumping in immediately.

• Distortion: Once you learn how to save the stacks to not lose them on obvious perks, it can save you from many things. I can't even count times it saved me from Blood Warden.

• Empathic Connection: may be my new most favorite perk, cuz in solo Q you don't really have a way to tell someone where you are to heal them, this is such a game changer.

• Repressed Alliance/Merciless Storm (yes, I treat it as a survivor perk, cuz it's a better repressed alliance): Killer has pop and your gen is close to finishing? lock the gen, lure the killer away and let someone else finish the gen

So I like to run Deliverance Distortion head on and deception lots of fun

I can actually get a lot of utility out of poised. The first benefit is it often allows you to make a clean getaway after finishing a gen even if the killer is near. The second benefit is since the killer doesn't see scratch marks indicating someone ran away they will usually spend a little while searching for someone they assume to be hiding in the vicinity.

It has some of the same benefits as diversion or deception in that it will trick a killer into spending time searching for someone that isn't there, plus it has the added benefit of giving you 10 seconds of running without leaving a trace.

Survivor: For the People, We'll Make It, Empathetic Connection (I'm a very altruistic person for better or worse) No one expect For the People and it's come in clutch a few times

Killer: Whispers easily.

I don't understand why Whispers is not meta. It low key carries me and gets me into chases much faster than having to search for people on my own. I mean I know i'm also mid at best when it comes to killer and better killers probably don't need it to find people but it works for me consistently

Alert, Second Wind, I’m All Ears, and Jolt
