Do you wear cosmetics for style or stealth?
There are two kinds of people. Those who wear cosmetics because they like how look or want to show off, and those that wear cosmetics because it provides camouflage and gives them a higher chance of staying undetected. Which kind of person are you?

Has The Entity stopped having Blights?
According to recent leaks, there will not be a Blight-focused event for Halloween this year. Instead, there will be a pumpkin-focused event. In the Hallowed Blight lore, the Blights are a yearly purge The Entity undergoes. With the introduction of a different event this year, does this mean The Entity no longer needs to…

Are you happy that Halloween events are moving away from the Blight theme?
If I recall correctly the developers have stated that they are moving away from Blight-themed Halloween events. The recent leaks suggest the only Blight-related parts of this Halloween event will be skins. Did you like the Blight-themed events more, or are you happy that the developers are moving away from them?

An interesting little detail you can find on some reworked maps
In the reworked Badham Preschool and Gas Heaven, you can find newspapers on the ground that have some strange and humorous headlines: This headline reads: "Miniature horses in Dodge County make for more than just educational story", accompanied by a picture of the DBD logo. This headline reads: "Anxiety anxiety",…

It looks like the 5th Anniversary event will be the exact same as the 4th Anniversary event...
In the Advent Calendar 2020 news post BHVR that they will be "contributing more effort towards our Anniversary & Halloween related events" to make them "truly feel special". They also said that to put more effort into those events, they would be putting less effort into the other events. We saw no Winter event and a…

The Clown's Afterpiece Antidote might be made from pustula serum.
We know from the Eternal Blight add-ons and The Blight's power that using pustula serum increases your speed for a short period of time, which is exactly what The Clown's Afterpiece Antidote does. On top of that, the Afterpiece Antidote is colored yellow, just like pustula serum. The Clown could have developed the…

PSA For Huntress: Hatchets Reveal Hex: Devour Hope.
I'm guessing this is a bug, but a Huntress I was going against today had their Hex: Devour Hope revealed when she downed a survivor with a hatchet. This could mean that The Huntress' hatchets now count as a basic attack, but I haven't tested it. If you are playing The Huntress with Hex: Devour Hope, keep this in mind.

Could Vigo be from the 19th century?
In The Hallowed Blight tome entries Talbot says that the abandoned workshop (presumably belonging to Vigo) is filled with "protective clothes". Many survivors have ransacked Vigo's workshop, and found clothing that looks Victorian. We know from Arcus 632 that Vigo is able to create things like the Observer. So it would…

There is an easy counter to The Twins' camping
Everybody is talking about how powerful The Twins are at camping, and I won't deny they are a cut above other killers. However, their camping potential can be easily countered by doing simple things. If The Twins are leaving Victor at a hook, just crouch-walk as soon as you hear his screeches. Victor cannot detect…

Should you camp the basement as a Killer?
I find myself downing survivors near the basement a lot and I usually hook them there, provided I have enough time. But I'm not sure if I should be staying near the basement to intercept any would-be unhookers or just leave to find a survivor working on a generator. What would be the most effective thing to do after…

What are your thoughts on a camera-based killer?
We've had killers with tracking put into their base kit like The Doctor, but there hasn't been a killer whose power is entirely based around tracking survivors. The best idea I can think of is a killer that can throw cameras around the map that show the auras of survivors in their line of sight or ones you could look…

What are your thoughts on the use of third-party applications for DBD (besides cheats)?
Some players use a timer application to track the duration of Decisive Strike left on survivors, or a crosshair to help get shots as a Huntress or Deathslinger. What are your views on the use of these? Do you think players should be allowed to use them?

When does Talbot Grimes transform into The Blight?
From tome 1's The Hunger cinematic, we see Talbot Grimes inject himself in the middle of the woods, presumably turning into The Blight. But in the chapter 17 teaser trailer we see Talbot inject himself in front of Father Campbell's chapel, presumably turning into The Blight there. But then in the official chapter 17…

What Happened to Talbot Grimes?
I just finished the collection entry Doors Unknown, and I am...really confused. What happened to Talbot Grimes once he came into the realm of the Entity? Can he still think? Was his original Blight form ever real, or did he immediately become the True Blight? If anybody has any theories, I'd be glad to hear them.

All About the Blight Serum Addon
Update: The 4.3.1 bugfix patch has sadly removed the Blighted Rush tech. As far as I know the rest of the information in this post is accurate. Blight Serum is a Killer addon temporarily available to purchase and use during the Eternal Blight event. It costs 3,000 Bloodpoints in the Bloodweb. Using a Black Ward while…

How would you rework The Deathslinger?

Is Hex: Ruin + Hex: Undying really as good as people say?
I've got my doubts about the effectiveness of the Hex: Ruin + Hex: Undying meta emerging. In order to get any value out of Hex: Ruin, you need to constantly be interrupting survivors on generators and making sure they don't get right back on them. This means that the only killer that can even get decent use out of this are…

Help with Blight Cosplay

Big problem with The Blight
There is a serious issue with The Blight that makes his power very difficult to use in a few scenarios, and in one map in particular. Whenever The Blight wants to start a rush, either from a neutral state or from a slam, there has to be a small amount of distance in front of him. So if you are right up against a wall, you…

The Blight can actually be faster than the Hillbilly

The Blight has two addons that increase his rush speed for each token consumed. With both Compound Twenty-One and Compound Thirty-Three,…
