What are you learning about yourself in Chaos Shuffle?

I've discovered a love for Dead Hard 😬 sorry everyone

I really really hate flashlight lobbies and quick switching

I learned autodidact can be amazing perk if you get skill checks early in the game.

Overcome has been my Exhaustion perk of choice since it first came out. I still see people call it bad and don't know why. It comes in clutch so often

I have rediscovered my hatred for no mither.

Chaos shuffle made me use some amazing perks that I don't use too often but might consider running in "normal" trials from now on more frequently (floods of rage, alert, troubleshooter, discordance, etc.) and perks that just do nothing and are rightfully never picked (corrective action, cut loose, hangman's trick, weaving spiders etc.).

And then there's no mither. A perk that is worse than getting an empty perk slot, but apparently that's fine because it is meant to be a perk so bad that it loses you games.

I'm learning that I've memorized all the perks already and it's fun to try mixing new combinations. Past that it's just nice to be able to try other perk combinations without worrying that I'm at a disadvantage because every single player in the lobby is running meta.

I learned the Devour is honestly a pretty goofy perk. Smh I always perceived it as some kind high-risk-high-reward sweaty perk or sth (mainly because as a surv I encounter it on killers who definitely needed a shower after that match). - But oh my, the pure chaos that erupts when survs get the exposed status is so funny.

On surv I didn't learn much, I just got confirmation that any killer can easily camp and tunnel but a surv without an anti-tunnel build can't do much about it.

I learned I don't need Windows of autopilot anymore to loop and path through the maps. I never tried to get rid of it out of fear to perform incredibly bad.

That windows is the single most overrated survivor perk in the game. My chases are just as long without it.

That the game loves me having poised equipped. I swear I got that perk in at least 30% of my matches.

I got Boon Shadow Step quite often, I never really used it prior, but might now use it in stealth builds more often, with Light Footed and Iron Will.

Sure, the killer may snuff the boon, but since you leave no scratch marks, and have no aura reading, the killer snuffing it may give you some time to escape, and they will have zero clue where you went. Such a fun perk, saved me multiple times even.

It's also good against aura reading if your on generators, healing, etc. Considering I prefer not to be chased, this perk is also extremely good for my type of playstyle which is doing generators/being productive with a bit stealth to it, so I can remain hidden.

Gen slow down perks get a lot less necessary when you take away all the 2nd chance, after 2nd chance, after 2nd chance perks that make chases take way longer than they should. "Generally" not having either in the match bar a couple random ones, it tends to even the game speed out to where it normally is when both are in play.

People tend to always take note of how much time gen perks save, but rarely is it mentioned how much time all the Exhaustion and 2nd chance perks save on the other side.

I have just further proven to myself that I don't need slowdown meta to be a Merciless Pig main.

I've learned that killer is pretty painful to play without reliable perks.

I've learned that RNG is the worst part of this game. It was always the worst part of it in the actual base game, and it's made even worse in a game mode in which even your build allows you to have no agency.

In base DBD you already have the chance to get bad teammates, hackers, tunneling killers, people who slug the 5 minutes, 3 genners, etc. Having to put up with ALSO having RNG on your own build, giving you completly useless perks or no mither makes the game even worse.

Im glad i learned to play the game without windows. I'm seeing so many survivors struggle without that perk now its sad.

Also I've learned that the game loves giving me no mither + healing perk or 2 which makes no sense.. I got no mither twice in a row with..healing perks 😶

I also learned how much i love the chaos and randomness. I didn't realise how bored i was of the meta DBD

I got Botany Knowledge and Self Care and I'm kinda starting to understand why the meta in the Asian servers favors this combo.

I'll use her stealth for both of us.

Medical file go zooooom....

Its rough, but 4 flashlights in the lobby is also an amazing slowdown that very few other perks can even hope of accomplishing.

I found that I can still be entertained by DBD in a way I thought I lost long ago.

It was…fun :)
