What are the best Wesker perk combinations?

I was just wandering what reliable loadout people recommend for Wesker. I currently use a Starstruck build alongside Hex: Plaything and, although it works sometimes, it can sometimes be impossible to M1 a survivor on a good loop/pallet camping so it's just not reliable enough. It gives some sort of gen pressure for the people affected by exposed but I still experience gen rushing to the point where I need to tunnel someone out of the game and I don't want that happening as I know how it feels to be the one tunnelled. I'm pretty decent at playing him but the gen pressure is practically non-existent.


I understand I could just watch a couple of videos but I'd like to test out a lot of them instead of just going for the strongest :)

    does starstruck even work on survivors affected by Plaything? 🤔i'm not sure with it


    My favorite build right now is Nowhere to hide, Overcharge, Eruption and Dissolution


    Dissolution is my personal "addiction" perk on Wesker. It just feels awesome to grab survivor mid pallet vault, cancelling it, and then seeing, how they vault it again and instantly break it (or just slam them in this pallet/near it, that works too. most of the time they will vault it, since they don't get Dissolution notification until it's too late)

    Kinda addiction on Nowhere to hide. I hate looking for survivors, that are playing stealthy near gens (and sometimes it can take very long time to find them), so, i just kick gen (and hope there is no Distortion 😅)

    Added Overcharge+Eruption to the mix as some sort of gen regression, since i kick gens a lot for Nowhere to hide


    As for starstruck, Sloppy butcher, etc M1 perks, i mostly use M2 (sometimes a bit too much), so, they have little to no benefit to me

    I've been running PR, Floods of Rage, Corrupt and Dissolution on him since he came out.

    I also HIGHLY recommend Unicorn Medallion

    I found usually a combo of 2 slowdown, 1 chase and 1 info works well on Wekser. Personally I think a good build is deadlock, no way out, discordance and brutal strength/bambozle. Deadlock and no way out buys you time passively which stacks well with Wesker's passive slowdown he can get through sprays. Similarly discordance works well with both deadlock, as a good counter to deadlock is to stack on gens rather than split up, and works well with the sprays, as it's an innconsistent but powerfull info perk which appriciates the additional constant info of survivors spraying. Brutal and Bambozle are just generically good wesker perks, breaking pallets faster works well with your mobility and bambozle makes many vaults extremely weak when combo'd with your bound.

    The above build is very flexible so if you wish to swap some perks up (other good options include pain res, corrupt, bbq and noed) it's quite easy to so it's a good build for experimenting with. As for addons I usually run the gloves for faster power recovery and tendral for faster move speed when charging however you have many options. Unicorn and crank is a favourite of many players as they often improves your chase, chalice and lion madalion are good for getting more consistent hits and even jewled beatle has a genuine use (as the cooldown after throwing rather than slamming gives survivors less distance).

    I like to use pain res, corrupt, nwo, and deadlock. Great slowdown with strong early game, and room for an endgame clutch. Can use noed in place of pain res.
