Which two perks would you finish my survivor build with?

Hi! I've been trying to find a good solo queue survivor build that I'm happy with, but I've been struggling to find perks to fill the last two slots.

My two fixed slots are Windows of Opportunity and Deja Vu. Pretty self-explanatory, they're great perks that provide value every single game.

I've tried Sole Survivor and Wake Up to be able to turn the odd 'we got demolished at 5 gens' into a win for myself. I've tried Fixated and Iron Will so I can try to sneak off mid chase or hide when the killer approaches my gen. I've tried Hyperfocus and Stake Out, as well as Overzealous and Boon: Shadow Step to try and speed up the gens. None of these combinations have given me the feeling I got value from them every game, which I think is mostly what I'm after.

I think right now I'm leaning most towards Sole Survivor and Wake Up because I like the idea of having a safety net when the game goes south, but it provides zero value if the game goes well and it feels really selfish and bad when I let my remaining teammates be deleted instead of trying to keep the game going because it's better for my game.

So I was wondering if this lovely community had some suggestions! 😊

    Imo, you can never go wrong with Kindred.

    I'd chuck in Alert and Bond and just light that map up 😅

    I’d use Boon exponential because solos often get slugged so it’s useful for you and team

    I like to get value from my perks in every game too.

    If you want guaranteed value, you can't really go wrong with Sprint Burst and Resilience. Even if the Killer doesn't chase you, Sprint Burst will get you from A to B a lot faster (and even make some last second hook saves possible). And Resilience is always helpful in a chase with the extra vault speed and great for those games when your teammates just don't want to heal you.

    We'll Make It or Botany are good options for speedy heals, since you'll probably go for at least 1 hook save per game, you will get some value.

    For Windows and Deja you can't go wrong with Resilience+Adrenaline

    I'd personally throw out WoO, if you're playing SoloQ. Because once you've run it often enough I imagine you know where most of your recources are/learn the actual tiles.

    I no longer play survivor but if you're having sweaty matches like I did, I would definitely bring Dead Hard, DS, Resilience and Deja Vu or swap one of those for Iron Will if you're playing one of the Moaning Myrthle survivors aka Claire, Jane, Leon, David, Jeff etc.
