Seriously after all this time, Dredge & Sadako need a stealth rework
Onryo and Dredge, The Former has a Lullaby Radius, and the Latter Has a Directional Audio Queue Whenever either uses their Power. This alone is bad enough, hell, in Onryo's case, it's also something that people can notice immediately if they activate the Visual TR effect. Regardless, neither of these things belong on any…

Perk concept dump, Honest opinions welcome!
Moderators, Please let this stand in General Discussions for at least 24 hours to get a feel of responses from the average forum goer before sending it to the Creations Forum Graveyard that doesn't really see enough traffic. Hello everyone, Just putting out some Perk Ideas I hope the devs choose to implement in some form…

Testing the waters on a couple of perk ideas
Killer: Threatening Presence: Your presence gains potency directly proportional to the amount of pain you cause your victims. For every injured, down, or hooked survivor, your Terror Radius gains 1/2/3 meters in Radius. For every Healthy Survivor, your Terror Radius reduces 1/2/3 meters in Radius. Decreases Good skill…

Silly little perks that won't make it into the game, But I wish they would.
Here are some of the best perks I came up with. Killer Perks: Scourge Hook: Territorial Dominance Your shrines of Sacrifice Mark unsafe ground for your victims to tread. At the start of the Trial, 4 random Hooks are changed into Scourge Hooks: The Auras of Scourge Hooks are revealed to you in white. Each time a Survivor is…

Old Meme, Current PTB
Old Meme all the text wouldn't fit in: Text: BHVR Headquarters 3rd floor team meeting room: 1: "Players are complaining that the Alc Ring add-on grants the Blight the ability to instantly recharge his tokens by striking survivors." how do we fix this?" 2: "Obviously, we can't give blight any addons that recharge his tokens…

For any Moderator! PLEASE Let the General Discussion people submit/comment for at least the next 24 hours before pushing this to the Suggestions and Feedback Queue! Here are mine so far: Killer Perks: Scourge Hook: Territorial Dominance Your shrines of Sacrifice Mark unsafe ground for your victims to tread. At the start of…

Just a question for the devs about the Visual TR
I'm very glad that we're getting the Glowing Hearts as the Visual TR instead of the Visible Ring you see around the Knights goon squad, but I'm just wondering... Will players using Controllers when playing survivor also get Vibration feedback to match the Heartbeats as an option? I just thought it would be a double whammy…

A QoL Request for our favorite Resident Creature Feature: Dredge
I don't really consider Dredge a Stealth Killer TBH. I mean, yeah, Dredge gets undetectable status during Nightfall, which is all part of his base kit, but to me, another thing in the base kit defeats the purpose of it: A 20m Directional Lullaby. C'mon Devs! What's the point of going into stealth mode if the moment you get…

Awwww.....
I haven't been playing since December because of personal PC Issues that caused DbD to run at an inconsistently fluctuating 10-30fps when before it ran at a solid 80-100 FPS, which I just fixed at 11 pm yesterday (turns out it was a bad Ram Dimm/stick/whatever you call it), so I was REALLY looking forward to getting in and…

For the New killer players out there: the only rules you need to follow
Ha Ha Ha, jokes on you! This is actually an unbiased list of rules for BOTH sides! That being said though... Due to the new Resident Evil PW Chapter release, we have received an influx of new players, and so I must start this post by saying: Welcome to Dead by Daylight, and I hope you're all having fun so far (despite how…

126
I have 126 Ebony Mori's on Huntress (not counting any Ivory or Cypress, of which I have weirdly a lower amount of), as she is the only killer I've never used Mori's on. Most of the other Killers have around 20-50 at most, so... Being that even though the Mori finisher ISN'T coming in the next update, should I: Spend all…

Yay, "The Sting" is back!
A little DbD history first: When the Halloween DLC chapter first came out, whenever Michael (The Shape) stalked a survivor for a few seconds, a sound would play for the survivor indicating that they were being stalked. The devs called this sound prompt "The Sting", and it was an intended mechanic for Michael, but after a…

Just a fun little Killer Perk idea
Scourge Hook: Empathic Agony The Agony of facing ones mortality takes it's toll on your victims, crippling their ability to press on. At the start of the Trial, 4 random Hooks are changed into Scourge Hooks: The Auras of Scourge Hooks are revealed to you in white. Each time a Survivor is hooked on a Scourge Hook, the…

I just had the best Trial
The setting: The Game The combatants: 2 very good steve players, 1 astounding Nea (Rusty something.... dunno the full name but respect her fully), and a DC'er no one cares about Vs. The Doctor (Me) with a Mean build! The Outcome: As things go, the Dc'er, well, DC'd at 5 gens, so I thought this was gonna be an easy game,…

Onryo is OP! Come at me bro...
Ok, now that I have your attention! Let's get down to what this post is really about... Suggesting a change to her worst add-on, Remote Control, to make it "decent" or at least worthy of being an addon, especially one that is in the Ultra Rare category. Gasp "A forum Poster bait and switched me?" YES DAMNIT! OTHERWISE YOU…

Spine Chill needs a nerf...
... In radius. 36 freaking meters is overkill for any killer, but it especially screws stealth ones. Now I know you guys are all gonna say that "it's supposed to screw stealth killers, that's what its designed for, duh!" but lets face it, 36m is 4m higher than every killers base terror radius, so it doesn't only screw…

Just a few new potential killer perks that crossed my mind.
Hex: Powerless A Hex rooting itself in removing anything that tips the scales in favor of either side from the equation. If a Hex or Dull totem is blessed or cleansed by survivors, up to 2/3/4 Totems on the map are immediately cleansed, along with the totem that the survivors Blessed or Cleansed. Dull totems take priority…

Bug report...
Posting here because in the bug report section of the forums, I don't get the option to post a "New Discussion". Demogorgon's Daily: Must hit 5 survivors with a fully charged shred attack. It's not registering! I've done this daily 3x over the past 6 hours, and even when the survivors were holding still to mock me, and a…

The ultimate counter to the Onryo
Let yourself get up to 5 stacks of condemned. See teammate on last hook getting chased by Sadako. Grab a Tape and run to the TV you have to deliver it to in order to remove stacks. if not at 6+ stacks, shut off a few TV's along the way. Wait at said TV until you become fully condemned. Watch Sadako break chase to come…

To Play and Save BP, or Not... That is the question.
On one hand, The Ringu/Sadako chapter seems like a lot of fun, and I really want to save up regular match, Archive, and Ritual BP for her. On the Other hand, as of the PTB, Sadako is not a killer worth all that time and effort over the next 1+ weeks before her release. I really want to, but the devs have proved time and…
-
waited 43 mins for a PTB game as the killer...
Honestly I feel that this is the most problematic issue with the PTB. This is exactly why they need to Incentivize players to give the PTB a try. My suggestions: Award everyone who participates in the PTB 1 mil BP on top of what they already had 1 week prior to playing it so that they can actually level the new…

What really made me take a break from DbD
I'm a killer main, and so... For myself, It's The "Thankless Job" aspect of it. I already get enough of that BS at work, from people who ruthlessly tear into me for something that's not my fault, but they gotta vent their rage on someone, and while I understand that, I don't appreciate it. Then I come home, sometimes days…

Are Killer mains Actually dropping out?
People on these forums and Reddit are often seen complaining that killer mains are giving up and dropping out, which is increasing queue times, apparently ever since SBMM was released, and even more after the Hour of the Witch (boons) Update. Personally, I don't really think that's the case, because honestly I believe the…

Fixing old/bad/or outdated killer perks to make them useful
Suggested changes: Monstrous Shrine: Buff the perk to - Survivors have 3 less escape attempts, and sacrifice progresses 25% faster when hooked in the basement. Explanation - 25% of 2 mins is 30 seconds, or subtracting 15 seconds from each hook phase so 45 seconds per hook phase total, adding in the fact that unless the…

Should I stay or should I go? referencing Holiday Event "Features"
Personally, I and I'm sure others are having a lot of fun with the new Snowman Feature for this event, but, some are in disagreement about it. So, The question I'm sure everyone is asking: Should this return as a DbD Tradition during this holiday season? I would also ask the same of the Halloween Canker/Pustules, while…

This game could use more sex appeal...
Hear me out before raging against the title please. This game is based on horror tropes, and one of those is a bunch of teenage-college aged men and women doing the nasty/showing some skin before getting brutally murdered. Usually it's by a grotesque killer that directly embodies everything the survivors aren't, and well,…

Welp, It's Passed midnight in my region, Guess I'll play killer
There's just something about the late night atmosphere of this game, and Really it's the best time to play killer: You literally have the lowest wait times get matched with both good and terrible players, and above all just don't have to give a damn about their "fun" as most of them present builds and items that don't give…

A few New killer perks to help with the current survivor meta
Hunger of the Entity: The Entity must be appeased! Survivors attempting to rescue a hooked survivor in the struggle phase have a 50/75/100% chance to be attacked by the Entity, interrupting their rescue progress and inflicting the Deep Wound Status. This has no effect if you are closer than 24 meters of a rescue. Attacked…

Seriously, why is this not a part of the upcoming DLC?
Spies From the Shadows: Overhaul the perk to - The Crows no longer respond to your presence, you see the auras of all disturbed crows within 36 meters of you, and disturbed crows are 100% louder to you within that range. Explanation - This proposal gets rid of the confusing/annoying explosion sound notifications and…
-
This NEW Add-on confused me, so I fixed it
SPOILER ALERT! This is a Green Add-on in The Artist's bloodweb/inventory: Charcoal Stick A stick of charcoal that conceals anything it rubs over. The Auras of flying Dire Crows are no longer visible. The Auras of Dire Crows are visible for 0.5 seconds upon being summoned. Reading it at face value as the killer, you get the…

Throw away perk ideas
Lets face it, if any of you really like this game, chances are that you've come up with a few perk ideas that the devs will ultimately ignore. Regardless, I'm of the opinion that they should take inspiration from them, and even if they do and the perks we've created don't come out as we've written them, at least something…

Some "simple" improvement suggestions for Nemesis
Nemesis is not nor has been what can be considered a "competitive" killer since his release, and for the most part I'm fine with that, as not all killers need to be on the same level as Spirit, Nurse, Blight, or Freddy in order to be fun, but I feel that all killers at least need the allowance of playstyles and add-on/perk…
-
so... apparently the SBMM think's I'm a "noob"
I have over 1.5k hours in this game, but that has admittedly been dispersed over the years I've been playing (since 2016), so, honestly I feel it has likely rated me based upon my 400-700 hours played since it started tracking us, and as such, I'm willing to forgive it for my recent matches... However... Going exclusively…

Killer Concept: The Juggernaut (revised)+ Backstory, Map, and Survivor, TL;DR pending
I've Had this concept for a long time and now have it all down in a way that I hope makes this killer both intimidating and balanced. Did a lot of math on this one (which will show) that may have some inaccuracies, but should still overall give you the idea of what I'm going for. I hope you enjoy! The Juggernaut…

For The new players: A list of Unbiased "Rules" Everyone "Should" follow:
Due to the new Resident Evil Chapter release, we have received an influx of new players, and so I must start this post by saying: Welcome to Dead by Daylight, and I hope you are all having fun so far (despite how rough this chapters release has been)! That being said, you're likely to see a whole lot of forum posts, and/or…

That being said, you're likely to see a whole lot of forum posts, and/or chat messages citing "Made up Rules" Killers and Survivors…

I'm liking my "crack zombies"
... but wish they were better. The zombies normal movement speed is 1 meter per second, and honsestly this is horrendously abusable. They simply can't do anything if left at this value, or even at 1.25 m/s which is available with 1 brown add-on. TBH I've played many games as Nemesis, and the only times they have ever been…

Create Your Own Offering(s)
Offerings are those expendable assets that determine whether or not you have an advantage in the upcoming trial. Whether changing the aspects of the environment, altering your win conditions (mori's, hatch spawn locations), affecting point gain, or allowing you to choose the playing field, they all have a common goal of…

Raise Footstep volume back to 2016-early 2017 levels
Back in 2016-early 2017 the footstep volume for running survivors was loud and clear for killer players if the survivor was within 16 meters or so, but that all changed after a few updates, and while there has been fluctuations in its volume levels between patches throughout the years, it's mostly remained very quiet and…

Day 2 of Trickster and...
I'm still doing better in matches either avoiding using his power altogether, or using it only in Niche situations... save for 1 add-on combo. Overall my impression of him being the weakest killer hasn't changed since the killers Unique power is supposed to give them an advantage, but Tricksters power, even the "Main…

An Idea for making Trick Blades Base Kit
Base Kit: Thrown Knives Ricochet only 1 time, and deal 50% Laceration for successful hits after a Ricochet. Trick Knives Add-on change: Thrown Knives can now Ricochet 2 times, Laceration increased to 100% for hits after 1st ricochet, and 200% for hits after a 2nd ricochet. I may be doing my math wrong here, but the general…
