Single gen control perk. What's your pick?

I'm not sure fan of blowing multiple perks just on gen control.

I primarily play Ghost Face, so my perks are more on keeping survivors pressured and off gens.


Been trying eruption out, as jolt is situational as to where a survivor is downed. Having a hard time picking a single gen perk. Whats your go to?

    Right now, I'm waffling between Jolt and Eruption, depending on whether the killer mainly uses M1s or M2s.

    On the slow 110 ranged killers, I'm still using Pain Resonance.

    When I play hag, I don't really have much time to go and kick gens, so I'd rather have "passive regressions" like Pain res, Jolt and corrupt to have more time to setup.

    You can try something similar, only if you sure you can down them frequently.

    Jolt on any killer that downs with M1. Deadlock otherwise

    Deadlock if they ever put it in the goddamn shrine.

    Corrupt Intervention or Oppression.

    Eruption is a fairly nice alternative to Jolt for killer's that don't always M1, as is Pain ress with agitation.

    Jolt or Pain res are both are very strong anti gen perks.

    Deadlock is pretty good, not meta but it does its job

    Pain res. It's comfy, works on every killer, and the regression isn't insignificant.

    If I had to pick only one, Pain Res.

    I've found Jolt to be the best, only bad in a scenario where you get a map like Red Forest

    I feel it is better than the "meta" slowdown perks.

    Dead Man Switch.

    I really like Grim Embrace. While 40 s. of gen block doesn't sound that much, 5 s. of obsession aura reveal is quite nice, especially of you build around obsession (my builld is: Cauldrophobia, Dark Devotion, Grim Embrace and Rancor).

    Call of Brine is underrated, especially on killers like blight

    For that conditions, it should be 60 or even 80 seconds

    Deadlock is my favorite to use on any killer since you can mainly focus on chases and interrupt gens later.

    Deadlock cause I don't have to go out of my way to activate it. Pain Res would be a good pick for me as well, especially if I'm using Floods of Rage

    It's a tough choice between Call of Brian and Surge.

    I pretty much never use generator perks but for me it's either pain resonance or surveillance if you count that

    Yeah, its gen block time could be longer or make it available 2x per game (maybe reduce the duration slightly). So after you get 4 stacks it activated and resets to 0 unique hooks. Would make it far more useful and discourages tunneling (which is good for survivors).
