Individually Rank Survivors?

Since killers are going to be ranked individually I thought I'd toss this little idea around.


What if each survivor was individually ranked? I think something like this would work if it had the following conditions.


  1. Each survivor uses their 3 perks.
  2. Survivors can't take any items or add ons.

I also think it would be cool that for certain ranks you can be rewarded either Iridescent shards or bloodpoints of the devs choosing.


So what do you guys think of this idea? Could it work? Should this be something that the devs should look into or is it just a really odd idea that can't make it?

    I disagree with this because by doing this you'd severely limit people's builds. The reason killers are going to be ranked differently is because they all play differently, have better/worse maps, playstyles, etc. This is so that someone who plays Freddy to rank 1 isn't a rank 1 Nurse despite being ######### with Nurse and playing against rank 1 survivors and depipping constantly when playing her because they're not technically rank 1 with her.

    I'd like to know too.

    Individual killer ranks would make sense, because killers are differenciated by their powers.

    Survivors all play the same. But what would make sense for them is a separate Solo rank and SWF rank.

    They mentioned individual killer ranks on the 3rd anniversary stream iirc.

    Yeah, I didn't mean to exclude information, but I mean rather than being ranked just overall have a separate rank mode for survivors. So it would be like their hard mode.

    @WeaponXMetsu that would require a separate queue and would divide players up in a game where we already have decently long queue times for one side or the other.

    @WeaponXMetsu Where are you getting the idea that killers are going to be ranked individually? Did I miss some announcement?

    It was mentioned in a post I believe. It was in the talks, but it may below the radar. I think the new system for Killer ranking is going to be coming out soon if I'm right, but I'm not going to say too much because all I know is that it was talked about. I do however, assume that they are actually going to implement this for killers.


    EDIT: So, I was mistaken. I can't find anything that devs have this in the works. What I found was much talk about it though. The one post I found before I must've assumed was talked about by devs.
