In your opinion, which Killer has the finest chase/terror radius in DbD?

For me, it honestly has to be Mr. Wesker. The slowly progressing intensity of the music as he makes his way towards you can make for some tense and frightening moments, and his exuberant, loud, and banger of a chase music is always enjoyable to listen to as you're dodging bounds and forward knife slashes (especially with the accompanying heartbeat, providing additional intensity and thrill).

I feel this also befits Albert lore-wise as well, as he pompously thinks of himself highly, and he loves to make his indomitable presence known. Gameplay-wise, unless I face a Wesker a great many times in a row, I never get tired of his music.

Runners-up for me personally would be Nemesis and Pinhead for pretty much the same reasons, though I think Nemesis' chase music is better than Pinhead's and Pinhead's TR music is superior to Nemo's. I like Oni's, Dredge's, Slinger's, Hillbilly's, Knight's, Sadako's, and Blight's terror-radius/chase music as well.

I genuinely dislike Clown and Doctor's chase music, and they are amongst my least favorite in DbD.

Your thoughts?

    It's a toss-up between Artist and Spirit for me.

    The only one I outright dislike is Doctor's. Clown's theme sounds like a drunk panic attack at the circus-- which is to say, perfect.

    I like Wesker for how easily you can get Distortion/Stake Out stacks off him but other than that I don't have any real favs. I think most of the killers music is pretty decent

    Yeah, it's Clown for me. They absolutely nailed the "haunted circus" aesthetic.

    Dredge's chase theme actually sounds like something horrific is after me. And for that reason alone it's my favorite. I like nemmy's chase music more than wesker's. I like the build up in wesker's chase but the actual chase theme gives me generic epic music you find off YouTube.

    I do love how Wesker's chase music is the single hammiest thing added to the game in any fashion.

    After that, probably Spirit's. Although it is kind of counterintuitive to give the audio killer such a loud theme.

    I like Legion, hands down.


    The worst chase music was that short-lived "inkjet printer having a seizure" music Ghostface had.

    i like nemmise music the most but wesker definitely second. Maybe it the fact that u hear it for so long before he actually get to you. I'm always asking myself what direction is he coming from as the TR just so overwhelming loud.
