Hi everyone, I'm looking for some suggestions from you guys about how to best take advantage of some of our 6 new Survivor Perk options from the latest DLC in combination with our existing previous perks!

I'm open to any and all new ideas and suggestions that you may have, however, I am SPECIFICALLY trying to find the "Best" Build to work the new "Fixated Perk" into for some tracking marks fun. A few examples that I can give myself that I've been trying to test would include:

Fixated Perk: Obviously a more Immersive style..

A. Fixated, Iron Will, Urban Evasion, Dance With Me/Spine Chill

  1. Fixated, Iron Will, Lightweight, Dance With Me/Urban Evasion

Any other combos that you would recommend or want to try out yourself? Also a few other examples that I've been thinking about would include:

Baby Sitter Perk: This would be sort of a fun "Rescue Support" Build, where I don't even necessarily care to escape the match but hopefully could manage to sacrifice myself for all 3 other members of the team to get out and maybe even live myself.. open to tweaks and idea suggestions..

B. Baby Sitter, Distortion, Borrowed Time, We'll Make It.

  1. Baby Sitter, Distortion, Borrowed Time, We're Gonna Live Forever/Urban Evasion/Fixated

Finally I was thinking of trying to put together a "Team Gen" Build, focused around getting faster repairs as a team..

Better Together Perk:

C. Better Together, Prove Thyself, Leader, X?

  1. Better Together, Prove Thyself, X, X?

Anyways, have fun everyone! Looking forward to reading some suggestions from you all!

    Oops I forgot to mention, Second Wind..

    Second Wind could be a fun "Rescue Build" Combo as well...

    Something like:

    Second Wind, We'll Make It, We're Gonna Live Forever, X

    I would like to try that actually haha.

    My two favorite builds right now are:

    Fixated, Sprint Burst, Vigil, Adrenaline

    Inner Strength, Quick & Quiet, Head On, Adrenaline

    Steve's perks are alright. The only one I'd probably take of his is Camaraderie; but that can be used with almost anything.

    Thanks for the Share!! Appreciate the recommendation, may I ask you, what is the purpose of using Vigil exactly? I read the perk description and don't understand how it is useful in the build.

    And wouldn't "Lightweight" be nice to use in that Fixated build of yours? With SB included, for getting away from killer?

    My current fave is Decisive Strike, Head-on, Inner Strength, We're Gonna Live Forever. It happens all the time, you get unhooked (especially in the basement), but killer is within spitting distance. Jumping in a locker after being unhooked gives the killer 2 options:

    1. Pull you out of the locker and take the DS
    2. Leave you in the locker to heal over 8 seconds and then take a head-on stun.

    Unless you've already used the DS, you are guaranteed an escape from a camping/tunneling killer, as well as a heal. It's gotta be frustrating as hell for them. You can replace WGLF with something else if you want, personally I just like the extra points, but I've also had fun using Detective's Hunch or Small Game to locate those trickier to find totems (or as I've come to call them after this update: Med-packs).

    I just like the reduced exhaustion. It's by 8s if I'm not mistaken. I call this build "Discount Deadhard."

    Honestly, Vigil is just there so you can use SB more often. It can be replaced with LW. Sometimes, I like swapping Vigil for Hope because Hope works with Fixated.

    Ooo.. Hope working with Fixated sounds nice! But that's endgame only lol. I tried Sprint Burst but I don't think I'm quite that good at using it yet to be honest..

    Fixated, Inner Strength, Mettle of Man, Borrowed time

    I like this build, but I think Head On would work better than Fixated in it personally.

    Or maybe even Baby Sitter for Unhooks + getting more attention for Protection hits on MoM

    This is a pretty cool/fun unique build that works well with stunning the killer and staying alive longer, I would LOVE to try it but unfortunately I don't have Head On available and I feel like that's the key Perk in the build to work as you are saying haha.

    That's why it's overpowered. They need to make it so DS can't be activated when grabbed or killers will have a really hard time.
