    I've had great success as a solo survivor with Open Handed, Bond, Windows of Opportunity and Lithe / SB.

    There are definitely a lot of builds you can use as a survivor, that will work, if used correctly.

    My solo queue comfy build: Windows of Opportunity, Kindred, Botany, Leader.

    All the info I need in solo queue + healing is much faster both ways.

    I'll have to try out some of them !

    My usual build : Windows, We'll Make It, Aftercare, and then whichever perk will make my tome challenge easier. =)

    *any build focused around healing increases your chances of being matched against The Plague or The Legion

    I've been using a kinda weird survivor build lately: Clairvoyance, Distortion, Fogwise and Residual Manifest.

    Clairvoyance is pretty niche but helps finding chests for Residual Manifest, locate gens that are close to eachother to prevent a 3gen and worst case it can reveal the hatch's location.

    Distortion is really good with the amount of aura reading in the game.

    Fogwise is underated. It's completely countered by Fearmonger (another underated perk imo) but if you're good with skill checks, it can be better than object of obsession.

    Residual Manifest is an odd one but I've grown to enjoy using flashlights in games as of late. The blindness effect can be really annoying as a killer. A well timed blind before going down could potentially lead to a wiggle escape (although this is very rare) or it could prevent the killer getting value from BBQ.

    It's definitely not a strong build but I've been having a lot of fun with it.

    I find that Clairvoyance is an extremely underrated perk, you can use it while tapping so you can have it for the whole game and practically guarantee finding the hatch everytime.
