Question for Killer mains.
Guys, what perks survivors you're up against are using now?
Well I know, survivors didn't come up with new meta yet, but the one perk that I was actually expecting a lot in the games is BT... And I don't see it. Like AT ALL. I don't see much OTR either, and only 1 DS from... 15 matches, and suddenly, no lightweight, no hope?
What I do see a lot is boons. Literally. 2 or all 4 survivors in matches running boons, botany, SB, balance landing, med-kits(not perk), and I don't feel like it's a good strat if the killer chases you all the way to the down. Or if he decides to tunnel. Less survivors with flashlights and more toolboxes. (obvious reasons)
What is completely gone perks... I think you know at least 2 of them... For me it's iron will and DH. I see them maybe the same way I see DS in matches...
It's not for me to decide, but is lightweight a bad perk? BT is bad now? Maybe OTR? I see a lot of people complaining about tunneling and camping problem, yet they bring boons and botany.
What perks they are using in your matches?

Lithe and Sprint Burst are more common now, CoH appears from time to time, but I haven't been tracking Perk usage

The most common I am seeing are Lithe, Sprint Burst, Unbreakable, CoH, and OTR. I still see DH and DS here and there.

Prove Thyself, OTR, Lithe, Sprint Burst, COH, Resilience are the most common for me

Lithe, sprint burst and prove thyself have increased . Iron will, dead hard and ds usage has decreased while borrowed time and CoH seems the same.

I use botany, off the record, bond and adrenaline.
Basically I only changed BT for off the record from my old build.
Fourth perk is always changing but right now its botany. Also trying lightweight now but not really sure if I can see the difference and value from it unless its indoor maps.

I haven't had time to fully test out new perks because of work so this weekend when I have more time I'll be playing and trying out more...

I'm seeing a lot of Lucky Break's and it's making me do a Travolta head fake every 60 seconds.

Sprint Burst, Lithe, OTR.
A lot of Vigil and Lightweight.

Lucky break?!
Haven't seen a single one tho. xD
I don't know but now their builds so chaotic, as I said there is no particular meta now, but... It's like 0 synergy with perks, they're all over the place.

Went against a group of survivors with 3 Prove Thyself generators perks like Prove overzealous are probably gonna be the new meta.
I removed Corrupt Intervention from all my builds and put on Discordance instead gave me way better value I can pressure multiple survivors early which is good against these filthy PT enjoyers.
I also saw some Built to Last users with good toolboxes.

I think so, tho I think it's a little boring meta to have, but hey... Survivors wants to win too... Yeah I agree, gonna try gen-rush with friends, hope it's gonna be more than 50% of escapes.
Some killers still needs a corrupt imo, like Hag or Trappa, I don't see them without this perk.

I think the meta is going to change to where both sides focus on gens- killers trying to slow them down as much as possible, and survivors trying to get them done as quickly as possible. Sounds boring if that comes to fruition.

Botany, WGLF, Kindred, Lithe. And 1 person brings Coh.

I guess the thing with OTR is that not everyone had Zarina. She is cool, bit wasn't highest on everyones shopping list in the past. I guess many, many more spend their shards on Fengs, Mikaelas or Felixes then Zarinas. But give it some time and every serious survivor player will pick her up for OTR.

I don't main killer, but what I have seen as been all over the place. Lots of the other exhaustion perks, though. People are just trying stuff out, looking for some new synergies.
Some people also clinging on to Dh and trying to make it work, but less and less.
I've seen more LB since the patch dropped. I've tried running Lucky Break + Overcome + Lightweight where I used to run LB + Overcome + IW. Seems to work all right.

NGL I was expecting everyone to run OTR/Hope, but I haven't seen those once :v
Exhaustions are mostly SB/Lithe, but that was expected. Occasionally there's Overcome, but with the base distance reduced I wouldn't recommend this one.
There's at least one Prove Thyself every game, which is also not surprising.
I've seen more Self Cares than CoH (which is like... why??)
BT is a rare sight too, I guess people stopped running it in hopes everyone else has OTR?
Surprisingly very little Unbreakables, which is weird, since this perk wasn't touched?
Adrenaline seem to be the most seen perk now for me. It's been meta before but it wasn't run as much before. I love this perk, and I'm glad to see people started using it again.
Didn't see a SINGLE Windows of opportunity since patch dropped. Which explains why people run like headless chickens (but killers aren't any better, they seem to be confused a lot after this patch too).
1-2 Vigils every game, fully understandable :D
I've seen Lightweight only on the patch day, not a single one since then.
Overall, I didn't get a chance to collect a bingo line of perks yet, everyone runs something different, and it's fun on both sides :D

Hey bro, I main killer (Myers) since 2017 and now I have more than 50,000 sacrifices on records.
Since patch 6.1.0 I faced Sprint Burst, Lithe and hacked Dead Hard (guys playing DH with some cheats to have back the old animation)
0 -
My last 3 matches, survivors was running flip-flop, coh, unbreakable, lithe.
Self-care (weird), balance landing, empathic connection, botany.
coh (yes, again), lithe, prove thyself, resilience.
I mean... It's chaotic to me, 0 DH, 0 DS, 0 OTR, 0 BT... I don't know why, I'd still use them, F it even DH.
Practicing new DH is gonna be one hell of an adventure tho...

I'm aware of a cheaters, run on 1 guy, at least he wasn't subtle and didn't hold anyone hostage. Thank you cheater... I guess...

I love the perk diversity in my survivor and killer matches I no longer see all survivors running dead hard dead hard dead hard, it's now so much more interesting and the killers are running perks that I haven't really seen in years, like overcharge even call of brine was something that I didn't see often, but now it is used. Rookie Spirit might actually be useful now that killers kick generators.
