    Not anything super unique to her, but I like running thanataphobia (since survivors are probably gonna be injured longer) and infectious fright (since slugging and going after the nearby survivor can get you an easy infection, down with corruption, or down with the broken survivor).

    I'd say monitor and abuse despite her height is pretty good on her, allows you to more easily approach people unaware. Thanataphobia is garunteed to give you use as people despise cleansing against her meaning there always injured, and pwyf can actually be amazing being able to break chase and one hit down. People throw pallets down early to prevent death so brutal strength is pretty good, and whispers or any detection perk is a must unless running her ultra rare add-ons. Typical "one chase perk, one gen slow perk, one awareness perk" should get you pretty far if I'm being honest

    Thanataphobia definitely helps forcing corruption, if it doesnt, then they're sticking through Vile Purge and Thanatophobia at the same time.

    Thanataphobia

    Monitor & Abuse

    PGTW

    Bamboozle/Brutal Strength

    You don't need tracking perks for Plague, just use thanataphobia and PGTW down and M&A + Bamboozle/BS to get quick downs on the injured survivors.

    I also recommend taking an apple addon. Having a corrupt right off the bat forces them to cleanse, which is your wincon as plague.

    Pair Infectious Fright with Knockout. People don't cleanse so you can get some one hit downs and Knockout helps with the slugging game.

    That's why you chase the screaming survivor instead of hooking the one you just downed. Knock Out prevents the other two survivors finding the slug easily not the one that just screamed.

    Due to her wonky momentum, I preferred the Ruin + Spirit Fury/Enduring/Bamboozle setup. Plague can be very powerful Breaking everyone for one-hits, but she's also incredibly strong with Corrupted Purge. Alternatively, I'm playing with an anti-gen progress build with Pop Goes The Weasel, Ruin, Overcharge, and Sloppy Butcher (or any other gen tracking perk like Surveillance, Tinkerer, or Dark Devotion for lolz).

    Your goal is to:

    • Break everyone
    • Get Corrupt Purge
    • Both! (Ideal situation, go around projectile vomiting for easy downs)

    I like Vile Purge cooldown + charge addons if not going for Corrupted Purge, but she needs to put pressure for either of these scenarios to occur. If you can't apply pressure, you may never get everyone Broken/Corrupt Purge rolling. Also, beware of getting pallet stunned with Corrupt Purge--it ends it entirely, though this is a rare scenario.
