    Everything honestly. Legion is so flexible that i change my build regulary.

    Mostly chase related. Sometimes stealth. Lately been running perkless a lot to improve.

    Trapper is rough, but nothing sounds better in this game then hearing a trap shut followed by a scream

    My favorite killers are dregdge, artist and knight (in that order). I mainly like their aesthetic, but it helps that their powers all work relatively well on console (unlike trickster for example).


    My favorite survivors are Carlos (so technically Leon), Yoichi, Vittorio and Felix. I just like how they look.

    Legion because they suck at killing anyone.

    Nea because they kill everyone.

    First killer I picked up without question was Wraith. I just relate so much with the guy and his power. Quiet, has an abnormal breathing disorder, likes to whack people for flashing them with their lights. Haha, no I'm not a basement-dweller neckbeard, just your regular introvert.

    I first stated playing when artist was the newest killer and I tried every killer out for a while before I settled on legion since I love the simple gameplay of just running around with a knife and stabbing the whole team if you can lol and also the chase music they have with the mixtapes is my favorite in the game.


    for survivor it was Dwight at first but then I switched to Elodie simply because I think she’s the hottest survivor and her lore is also pretty cool.

    If I had to state my favorite killer to play by month it would have to be this:

    June 2020: Wraith

    July 2020: Wraith

    August 2020: Spirit

    September 2020: Spirit

    October 2020: Spirit

    November 2020: Spirit

    December 2020: Spirit

    January 2021: Spirit

    February 2021: Spirit

    March 2021: Spirit

    April 2021: Blight

    May 2021: Blight

    June 2021: Spirit

    July 2021: Spirit

    August 2021: Spirit

    September 2021: Spirit

    October 2021: Spirit

    November 2021: Artist

    December 2021: Artist

    January 2022: Spirit

    February 2022: Spirit

    March 2022: Spirit

    May 2022: Literally played one night for the whole month

    June 2022: Artist

    July 2022: Artist

    August 2022: Spirit

    September 2022: Spirit

    December 2022: barely played

    January 2023: Artist

    So it’s safe to say Spirit and Artist were about the only two killers that I’ve really consistently “mained” for a long time.

    I think it has the best level design and atmosphere of the SH games. It's just a lot of fun. Cheryl/Heather's quips, the variety of locations, a lot of jumpscares, etc.

    It's basically the game that got me into Urban Exploration.

    i am sensing a female killer vibe (missing huntress) have you tried skull merchant?

  • GannTM
    GannTM Member Posts: 10,887

    Yes I have tried Skull Merchant and dozed off so hard. Probably the most boring killer I have ever witnessed.

    For me, killer is spirit and nurse. I like the way spirit looks and her gameplay and as for nurse I like teleporting around.

    For survivor my first p100 was Claire, I love her and wish she was her own character and not a skin, we need more costumes for her and some other RE ppl! I'd play her more if she had all or more of her outfit options.

    My second p100 is Cheryl/Lisa because Silent Hill is my favorite survival horror series. I love psychological horror. As soon as the Princess skin for Heather was released I usually always wear it even if it makes me a walking target!

    Killer: Ghost Face, Legion, and Myers because I appreciate the simplicity of being a creepy dude who stabs you with a knife, though Legion is a lot louder about it. I enjoy Wesker because his power is very satisfying to use, even if I'm bad at using it, and his smarmy nasally taunts are great. I also enjoy Dredge because I think his design is really cool and while his power is a little awkward, Nightfall is satisfying to hunt survivors in. And finally, Pig, because I like forcing traps on people's heads that put pressure on them, give them a serious problem to deal with while I run around messing with everyone. I wish she would get some buffs one of these days so I could feel better about playing her.

    Survivor: Jeff because I'm also into rock music, though not as much of a metalhead, and I think his humble personality is sympathetic and relatable. I also like Adam because he has a nice style and just seems like a respectable kind of guy, I want to buy all his yellow cosmetics so I can swap jackets whenever I want. I'm also a fan of Yun-Jun because her being more self-centered and pragmatic makes her stand out compared to other survivors, who are sometimes sound too goody-goody and idealistic for me to take seriously. I also like Ace just for being a cool older dude, and gamblers are fun characters. Finally I plan on getting Zarina eventually because I like honest and courageous reporter characters.

    Sadly the survivors I like don't have many cosmetics I do like, so I'll always be a little limited in appearance options. I like Yun-Jin's character but her fashion is ridiculous, and Ace's cosmetics are... definitely something.

    On survivor, I started with Meg/Felix because of their perks, but currently, it's an RE roulette but mostly it's between Los and Zarina <3

    On killer, I started out with Wraith because it's very easy to maneuver around and learn the maps/tiles with him, then I switched to Spirit because I got too used to fast and stealth killers.

    After getting the RE DLC I got hooked to playing Nemi, but it got to a point that a lot of people would DC the instant they'd hear his TR 😅 Since the last rift (GF's) I've become a GF main, and it's SO MUCH FUN playing him!
