Another patch with Killer number tweaks, still no Knight
So here we have the above, Deathslinger buffs, neat, faster movement speed when reloading, faster reel speed. I don't think anyone asked for this, but it helps smoothen him out a bit so I can't complain. Wesker changes to his infection to eliminate tunelling benefits, nice, that was asked for, so props. Blight Iri nerfs,…

P50/P100 Banners and Icons?
I think these would be pretty neat. Have a sort of basic version with artwork of the Killer/Survivor and a respective icon to match. The P100 can be an iridescent/animated version. If you want banners and icons for your specific character, I think P50 is fairly attainable across multiple characters, and 100 for those that…
-
Is Chucky fun to face?
Chucky has now been in the game for a good while. His addition is one of the more unique ones as he is the shortest Killer we have (excluding Victor). His short model is a power in and of itself. His illusionary footsteps can put you on edge and his dash ability is deadly when used well. Scamper can catch survivors off…
-
Original Chucky, Stitched Chucky or Tiffany?
Which skin do you think is the best for The Good Guy? Do you prefer his original look, his stitched look, or do you prefer Tiffany?
-
Infuse Shadowborn with Lightborn’s aura reading effect
Essentially just place this effect on Shadowborn instead of Lightborn. It just seems like it would be more suitable. Lightborn already provides a strong effect of blind immunity, but the aura reading and haste from Shadowborn seems like a good alternative and could have some synergy with a couple of other perks if you want…

Myers: The most outdated Killer in the game
Widely considered to be one of the weakest Killers in the game (without tombstone). Same model, no texture upgrades. Same add-ons, same power, same visuals and effects. Essentially a relic of a bygone era. Even Trapper has received a graphical update to his base cosmetic and bear traps, add-on update, base kit effects…
-
Underrated Killer/Survivor builds?
Do you use certain builds that you feel are strong that don’t seem to get used a lot? For me, I run: Agitation Iron Grasp Starstruck Lightborn This build essentially guarantees that I will hook a survivor. Sabo? Riskier with exposed and me moving faster and steadier. Blinds? Lightborn. Body blocking? Nope. Basement? Most…
-
Sadako: Is she bad?
Been seeing opinions around the forums that her most recent update just put her back to being a bad Killer like her original iteration due to her lack of chase power and condemn not being threatening enough. I’ve been playing her a lot lately and she reminds me a lot of Pig. Her condemn is like a progressive RBT that can…
-
Are Twins the new Skull Merchant?
I’ve tried playing Twins a few times since their update and I’ve had people just give up and throw themselves at me, basically the same thing that happens when I play SM. Not exactly fair on the people who do try to play, so I let them go. I play Killers that are generally accepted and I get smashed. I play stronger…
-
New Huntress/Doctor Ultra Rares
Huntress’s is probably one of the best cosmetics in the game. This is practically a new Killer. The animations in the preview screen and the alternative Mori are crazy. I hope it’s available with shards eventually because I’m going to be saving up for weeks for it. Can anyone let me know if there’s any unique lobby/chase…
-
When will we see new chase music for older Killers?
Namely The Plague, because a Killer like her is sure to have a really neat terror radius and chase theme considering the time period she’s from. She really deserves it. We also have music for Hillbilly, added on his overheat rework, which was eons ago, yet nothing for Wraith. I do hope we get something soon because the…
-
Who is currently the most loved Killer to face?
I seem to recall a lot of people saying they loved Billy, mainly his original version, and even the overheat version, but the overdrive version seems to have some people split on if he’s still an amazingly fun Killer to face or not. Off of the top of my head, Demogorgon seems to be one of the most favoured, but I’m unsure…
-
The Skull Merchant Perk Buff Suggestions
I think Skull Merchant’s perks are neat, but a few little adjustments and I think they’d be really solid. THWAK! Is a perk I like a lot, but I think it has some shortcomings. Leverage is an interesting idea that rewards you for doing well, but takes a while to ramp up to be worth it. Game Afoot is a unique concept but…
-
What would you do: Give the survivors a fairer game, or give yourself a fairer game?
This is something that's come to mind recently and I wasn't sure how to title it, but this is what I mean; When I bring slow down perks, like Pain Resonance and Corrupt Intervention, I find that these give me a helping hand in dealing with good/very good survivors. They give me breathing room to down survivors and be…
-
What if BHVR gives Skull Merchant the Sadako treatment?
Sadako went through three stages: Original version Reworked version Hybrid version (Current) This rework pattern follows a path of taking a Killer who's power was initially considered underwhelming, but had promising aspects that just needed adjusted and buffed, to a Killer who then received an unpopular rework, to a…

Was tunneling always a hot topic, or has it just gotten worse?
I know for a fact that for the several years I’ve been playing this game, tunnelling has been an issue, but it only feels like recently or in the last year that tunnelling has really spiralled out of control. Does anyone know the specific, nitty gritty reasons as to why it’s gotten so bad? Is it generator speeds? Not…
-
When are Knight’s add-ons getting looked at?
In the recent update, Huntress and Clown both got adjusted add-ons. The add-ons were not nerfed, but reworked to have different effects. For many many months now, we’ve seen several changes to other Killers where add-on effects have been toned back and implemented into the Killer’s base kit. I’m curious as to why after all…
-
Xeno acid blood add-on visual feedback?
Just wondering if the devs could ever add visual feedback for this add-on. The concept of hurting the xeno and getting hurt back because of the acid blood is a really neat thing, but having no visuals to pair with it is a bit sad. They could even re-use the green sickness effect from plague to visualise the damage. With…

Not taking the game so seriously anymore
Recently things have changed for me and I wanted to discuss the effect this game has on one’s mental health and how we deal with the negative sides of the game. For me, my mental health has been rather shaky for years. In the last couple of months, I have seen a doctor and gotten the help that I very much needed. I’m in a…
-
Have you done anything that’s broken your norm?
What I mean is something that is highly unusual for you, this can be anything Dead By Daylight related. For me, Tools of Torment is the only non-free chapter that I’ve not spent any money on whatsoever. I always buy every chapter release as a way of supporting the game I play often. I don’t typically buy cosmetics anymore…

Skull Merchant and Knight are my favourite Killers to play, AMA
Go for it. I unironically love them gameplay wise and I actually like most aspects of Skull Merchant.
-
The Unknown and The Entity
This is a very interesting relationship. When we look at Dredge, the end of its tome doesn’t make it clear where it went. Did it go back to its own realm and get taken by the Entity later? Was it taken then? Is it from the Entities realm originally? Who knows. The Unknown on the other hand, gets taken by the Entity during…

Stranger Things lobby music for Steve and Nancy?
Cheryl (somewhat recently) was given the Silent Hill lobby music, can we get the same treatment for Steve and Nancy? Would be a great little addition and carry on the theme of unique survivor lobby music.
-
Haddonfield: Killer or Survivor sided?
Because as a primarily Killer player, I hardly do well on it unless I’m playing specific Killers. I pretty much know how the game is going to go against survivors who have their ######### together. Balanced Landing/Lithe? Check. Can see me from miles away and pre-runs, forcing me to dedicate or leave them (letting them run…
-
Visual representation of Trickster's buff
(This happened after being head-on locker stunned while reloading from the locker next to it) Not going to sugar coat it though, main event shreds survivors now and I can see Trickster kind of just floating in that area of "uggghhh, it's X killer". He's very good at securing end game kills, and main event is very hard to…
-
The Singularity: Fun to verse?
Singularity is a very specialised Killer. He requires a good level of effort and game knowledge/micro management to get good use out of. At a base level, he is usable, but isn’t just a simple “press button and survivor go down” killer. He has high potential for mowing through survivor resources with overclock and constant…
-
How Would You Feel About The Removal Of Gen Regression/Progression perks?
Prove thyself Resilience DeJa Vu Pop Goes The Weasel Pain Resonance Surge etc etc. Would it be healthier for the game to remove all of these perks? Both survivors and killers would retain chase perks, info perks, stealth perks, healing/anti-healing perks, but anything relating to the primary objective is removed, keeping…
-
Why do you main your Killer?
Is it the aesthetic/source material, lore? Is the the power and general gameplay? Is it both? Recently I've been having a bit of an internal debate with myself, who should I really focus on and improve with, rather than being a jack of all trades. I want a single Killer I can gravitate towards (and play some others in down…

I hate the decoy snowmen
I hate them I hate them I hate them I hate them. ”maybe I’ll hop in this snowman” *chases survivor near one* *quietly browsing the map, looking for survivors* ”BWWAAAAARRRR” *######### HELL* I’ve been jumpscared more by these things in the event more than I’ve had genuine jumpscares throughout my 5 years playing. Some of…
-
What is it about The Knight that many Survivors hate so much?
I see Survivors on here, in game, on Twitch saying that they hate The Knight so much, that he’s incredibly boring to face. It’s a shame because I enjoy him, and beside Skull Merchant (don’t beat me up please), he’s one of my highest prestige’s but I’ve stopped playing him more due to the general sentiment that he’s boring…
-
What Xenomorph boils down to
And no, I don’t mean a black pile of goo… Xenomorph, along with its map, and Ripley (minus the likeness) were implemented into the game perfectly in my honest opinion…aesthetically. They look amazing and exactly what I would have imagined. The power of the Xenomorph though? Incredibly uncreative. I gave it the benefit of…
-
The Killer roster feels like it’s hit/hitting its peak
We’ve got a knight, a hunter that uses technology to track and kill, an alien/tech hybrid from the distant future, a nightmarish flesh monster, a mad doctor, a K-Pop serial killer, a Blighted monster of a man, A crow killer, conjoined twins, an Onryō (original and DLC). We’ve got some of the most iconic horror licenses,…
-
The Trickster update: Worse, or just different?
Since his update, I’ve been trying to play him differently. 110%ms Killers tend to rely on their powers for chases and downs, 115% Killers more so use them to assist in chases and for other purposes. Now that Trickster is 115%, standard killer gameplay is more viable. He relied so heavily on his power before, which made…
-
Best Killer for skill expression?
Who do you think is the best Killer for expressing your skill at Killer gameplay? I would argue someone like Skull Merchant is not. Placing drones does not take much effort and the multiple effects granted are basically handed to you, enhancing basic Killer gameplay with little effort, which can feel frustrating to face.…
-
What is your perception of Xenomorph now?
Chucky is almost upon us, and all of the focus will be on him and Tiffany. Looking back, and to the present day, how do you feel about Xeno’s current state? Too weak? Strong? Just right? After getting used to the nerfed Xeno from PTB, I’d say it feels fine. The tail miss punishment feels fair and I’ve gotten used to it. I…
-
Killer too oppressive, or just a lack of counterplay knowledge?
I’ve been seeing a few opinions floating around the forums regarding Skull Merchant. I saw a good few posts about Sadako a while ago as well. I don’t play survivor often, but my knowledge playing both of the above Killers helps me a lot. I know tape management is important, so I keep an eye on my stacks and when TV’s…

Chucky has revitalised my interest in Dead By Daylight
Preface by saying I’ve been here since December 2017. Pig was my first new chapter and being a massive Saw fan, it solidified my interest in the game. The game has had its ups and downs but I’ve stuck with it throughout. My two dream chapters were Hellraiser and Alien, and to actually see them come to the game was…

Getting the rights for the OG Freddy
Is it possible? Why wasn’t the original secured originally? Why the remake? Could the remake license be revoked and replaced by the original? With how well Pinhead and Chucky, have been implemented in their original forms with their very own voice actors, do you think there’s any hope for Freddy? I personally doubt it, but…
-
What is the point in solo survivor?
Mainly play Killer but I like to chill playing the other side, well, I used to. I’d say a couple of years ago and beyond, survivor was a way for me to wind down from Killer, but nowadays it’s just miserable and a waste of time. I never feel accomplished. Majority of my wins are from Killers who are inexperienced or…
-
Burning question regarding Trickster
Since the Trickster is getting so much attention recently, there’s one thing I’ve been wondering for a short while….where does his bat go when he’s throwing knives? Huntress holds her big axe in her other hand, Deathslinger always has his gun on hand…but where does Trickster’s bat go when he’s double chucking knives? Does…
-
No new Cenobite skins?
How long has it been since he’s been out? I’m surprised not to see the other two members of the group joining the fog especially after chatterer came beside Pinhead. Do we think we’ll ever see more for them?
-
Should healing be buffed?
The “stay injured” meta is pretty prevalent. Staying injured, especially as a good looper, lets you get a lot of consistent use out of Resilience and MFT. Buffing base healing would help encourage people to heal, make sloppy less soul draining to go against and possibly make healing worth it in more scenarios. I would even…
-
Killer Playstyles
With all the talk of tunnelling camping…all the time, I’m curious to see what types of playstyles exist and who uses them. Off the top of my head, I can think of: Pure stealth Slugging Information/Utility Pure chase Item Sabotage Anti-healing Generator Defence Unpredictability Carry build These are just some, which combine…
-
Pinhead feels clunky
After the update that fixed the camera for the possessed chain, the power just feels unresponsive. When it spawns, when you shoot the chain and when it’s supposed to connect. It feels like there’s a 0.5 second delay when using it and it feels horrible. Trying to use it fast just doesn’t work and it feels horrible. It was…
-
New Oni menu music?
Just me? Or is my game bugged? If it is, not gonna lie, I like this music better than his old one. Is his in game music any different? Edit: Don’t mind me, just noticed I had a fire moon festival skin equipped and it changes the menu music.
-
Sadako: Most Unique Killer in the Game
At a base kit level, she can kill people without hooking them once. She can do this very easily in your average solo queue matches as people are so used to frequent chases and hooks, not seeing side objectives with a higher priority. If you play Sadako with the intent to chase and hook, she is less effective because her…
-
New Chapters, but with a twist
With the ever increasing roster of Killers, I had a thought. An alternate power for a Killer. A new map in the Killers same realm. For example, the Pig can now choose between two powers in the pre-game lobby with their own unique set of add-ons. In terms of a new type of Saw trap, I’m not sure what else could work in the…
-
Coolest Killer to face?
For me it has to be Xeno. Seeing it walk around outside of crawler mode reminds me a lot of Alien Isolation and the way it moved around. The music and TR gets me going as well. The turrets add more atmosphere to the match. What Killer do you think is the coolest to face? Maybe even so much so that you don’t mind dying to…
