game-questions

[jaunty orbit]

^ try restarting games. either that set your lobby to public

[flint kindle]

Best way to learn is prolly just playing the game and practicing

[fierce quarry]

I don't want to be crying hacks at everything but they were an swf bully squad so I'm already a bit sus

[drifting schooner]

yeah but i die in the first 5 seconds and i have no idea why. as killer survivors pull shit off that almost look like they're cheating

[flint kindle]

Only thing I can think of is record it and send it someone willing to coach you

[jaunty orbit]

safety nets are the most important thing to learn. pallets vaults. learn how jungle gyms work and the flow behind them. try to keep your eye on the killer at all times know where they are, are they double back? arre they trying to mind game me? get out of the habit of looking straight forward all of the time and look behind your self

[reef wigeon]

Hey, uh I wanted to know that the killer they're adding Art the clown is the one from the IT movie right?

[jaunty orbit]

look up who he is on google. terrorizer

[surreal fiber]

do the fake unknowns remain after teleporting to them?

[wraith yoke]

I am having an issue where I cant load into games get stuck on loading screen or messages such as you've been disconnected from the host can anyone help me? I waited tons of hours just to play killer in 2v8 but this game wont let me

[reef wigeon]

Oh nevermind that's the clown who likes brutality.

[jaunty orbit]

sure lol

[drifting schooner]

i always try to keep track of the killer but walls are my biggest nightmare. i have heard of checkspots but have no idea what the checkspots are

[jaunty orbit]

if you wanna hop into a call i can give you a run down on how to loop

[surreal fiber]

checkspots are like corners where you can see the killer but the killer cant see you

[jaunty orbit]

exactly you gotta use your third person to an advantage

[wraith yoke]

Can anyone help?

[drifting schooner]

thats the exact moment the killer comes round the corner behind me and hits me lmao. the killer just thinks outside the box and doesnt even go around the loop and instead takes some route outside

[jaunty orbit]

just gotta have distance

[flint kindle]

I dont think there's like an outside of a loop
that's just part of the loop
It's multiple circles where you can loop over and over, if there's another way to go, that's also part of the loop

[jaunty orbit]

a check spot can be as easy as dropping a pallet and moving to the side a little to see if the killer breaks your pallet or not. if the killer doesnt break the pallet then stay at it until youre able to leave the loop or they break it

[drifting schooner]

i see. i guess i have bad spatial awareness then. how do you get the another loop in time if they decide to break it?

[jaunty orbit]

distance. youll get the hang of knowing how far a killer needs to be before they hit you unless theyre a ping gamer. just knowing whats around you. the best survivor to pick up at first is 100% kate denson for windows of oppurtunity

[wraith yoke]

Can anyone help

[jaunty orbit]

verify integrity of game files

[flint kindle]

It takes times to break a pallet it'll give you distance to usually get to another loop

[wraith yoke]

CAN ANYONE HELP

[jaunty orbit]

brother. verify game files

[radiant phoenix]

theyre adding art?

[reef wigeon]

No, I heard that from someone

[radiant phoenix]

ah alright. honestly they GOTTA add a conjuring chapter bro

[marsh pivot]

Does the aura reading part of overwhelming presence have a cooldown

[wraith yoke]

I did do you think im stupid? I DID EVERYTHING

[jaunty orbit]

google.com

[flint kindle]

I'd assume so

[wraith yoke]

I searched in google dude

[radiant phoenix]

check in reddit, ppl usually have an answer for hella specific problems there

[simple flower]

New killer have release date?

[primal folio]

Not as of yet

[radiant phoenix]

didnt they announce the ptb tho?

[primal folio]

We haven't been given a specific date yet, no

[simple flower]

And we know wich killer is?

[radiant phoenix]

ah thats a shame

[jaunty orbit]

does anyone know how to update dbd stats? mine havent updated since 2022

[primal folio]

The official stat tracker updates once daily https://stats.deadbydaylight.com/

If you're using any other website, that is not an official tool and we wouldn't have details on how it updates

[jaunty orbit]

if i could send a photo id love to but the site says it updates every 24 hours but has been stuck on 07/28/2022 ever since the site came out

[primal folio]

The stats website is less than a year old

Make sure you have your correct account(s) linked on BHVR's website, maybe it isn't looking at the correct one

https://account.bhvr.com/

[jaunty orbit]

exactly so why is it stuck at 2022 lol. it shows like my recent match history but statistics are very old

[fierce quarry]

When will the september killer be shown, and is anything known/revealed about them yet?

[silent jackal]

Any tips for someone new to Nemesis?

[scenic egret]

Hey behaviour how is this okay? i have 600 hours and im going against people with fucking THOUSANDS. im not ready for them so why do they keep doing it

TEN THOUSAND

[primal folio]

The broad answer of "why was I matched with these players?" will always be "because the MMR system found it to be the best match available at the time." Note that playtime and prestige count are not factored into MMR and are not reflections of skill whatsoever. MMR only goes up/down based on kills/escapes

[scenic egret]

it was my first match of the day as killer

[primal folio]

MMR never resets. The first daily match is not relevant here.

[scenic egret]

im clearly not ready for these people but after i win a few games (2/3k) i get put up against people who's skill is 10x my own and have been playing since launch

[primal folio]

You still scored 30k points that game, you didn't get completely stomped on.

I'd wager you managed to get a good number of hooks and drag it into endgame a bit

[jaunty orbit]

ooo id love more information on this actually. does mmr ever degrade based off of inactivity

[primal folio]

Negative

[primal folio]

All public details on MMR can be found here https://deadbydaylight.fandom.com/wiki/Skill-Based_Matchmaking_Rating

[scenic egret]

if only my mmr could be shown so i could at least be prepared to go against people who are much better than me?

[primal folio]

It is an entirely hidden system with no plans of a public reveal

Besides, a loss is an excellent learning opportunity. All killers are able to win at all levels of play. Use this as an example to study and improve off of.

[reef wigeon]

Do we know anything about the killers yet?

[primal folio]

huh?

like, the band?

what're you referring to lol

[reef wigeon]

The upcoming killers.

[fickle grove]

we dont know if they're humans or if they're dancers

[primal folio]

OK - you replied to me answering someone else about stats, which confused me.

[primal folio]

no, keep an eye on BHVR socials for more info

[reef wigeon]

Someone said there was a teaser.

[scenic egret]

its all still kinda frustrating to me i guess, i wish i could CHOOSE when to go against that level and test my skills and not just get stomped on after a few wins

[primal folio]

I'm not aware of one

[languid furnace]

does anyone else think the nurse sucks??

[coral otter]

it's all in your mind...

[primal folio]

Please review the rules for this channel, check the pins.

[reef wigeon]

Well, we are not even allowed to guess the upcoming killers which sucks because it will be considered as leak talks.

[coral otter]

does vigil stack still and if yes is there a limit?

[primal folio]

Speculation is totally fine. Saying "[Character] is definitely coming to DBD!" is not.

[primal folio]

Yes; no.

[languid furnace]

i checked

[coral otter]

awesome :3 thanks

[languid furnace]

so does she?

[coral otter]

actually, does it stack 1 to 1 or is the percent soft capped by bringing extra?

[warm pewter]

while last stand is active do you still get vault speed from finesse?

[primal folio]

Might want to read that pin more closely mate

[primal folio]

https://deadbydaylight.wiki.gg/wiki/Vigil#Multi-Instance

[warm pewter]

?

[knotty idol]

so if I use 4 vigils and we are all together, I can recover sprint burst exhaustion in like 7 seconds?

[primal folio]

11 seconds, if the entire team is right next to you with the perk, yes.

But considering you just used Sprint Burst, you probably aren't near your team by that point.

[coral otter]

Thanks!

[misty obsidian]

Why is killer so stressful, got my blood pumping every game 😮‍💨

[primal folio]

I have some copy/paste notes specifically for dealing with anxiety while playing killer, hopefully this helps a bit.

Try absolutely everything in your power to divert your focus away from going for a 4k. Remember, DBD is truly not a competitive game at heart. You aren't playing Counter-Strike in front of 20,000 people. Once the match ends, 5 minutes later everyone else that played will forget everything about it, including you.

I find it greatly helps to focus on tome challenges. To me, completing a challenge in a game is a win, no matter what happens. Did all 4 survivors escape? Sure, but I got my 7 gen damage events in a single game like I wanted, so I'm making progress with my account and I'm happy with this outcome.

Cold drinks can help with nerves. The colder the better. Just water is fine, but anything chilled will help still the nerves.

Deep breaths and breaks between matches. If something happens that really spikes your anxiety, take a break, re-center yourself, and try to think of it from a strategic point of view. What happened? Why did it happen? How can you prevent it later on? Having a plan means you know how to approach any situation, which should greatly cut down on anxiety and anger overall.

[tepid sequoia]

much more to keep track of compared to survivors

[misty obsidian]

Holy yap but yeah thanks

[drifting schooner]

Wheres the best place to post videos of gameplay so people can point out what i need to do to imrpove?

[primal folio]

Right here is fine, you can ping our game tutor role as well to get them to take a look once they're available

[tepid sequoia]

you'd have to use streamable or something tho cuz you don't have video perms

[primal folio]

Links work fine

A youtube video just won't embed, is all

[drifting schooner]

ok cool thanks

[reef wigeon]

Why is it so hard to counter the ghoul in-game? Unless you're getting a very bad ghoul user.

[hollow smelt]

Should i get p100 rick

[paper pond]

how do you even counter wesker in 2v8

[warm pewter]

while last stand is active do you still get vault speed from finesse?

[reef wigeon]

No, get p100 Michonne instead.

[barren pivot]

Because that's just how he is he's very fast and mobile, easy hits with power

[primal folio]

Yes

[spark vigil]

how can i get around being banned for 30 mins after literally every game? its honestly unbearable rn in every game im going into not a single tm8 does gens and someone will die before a single one gets done - i try and play gen rush to counteract this but i end up having to leave ofc :(

[primal folio]

I suggest not disconnecting if you wish to avoid the disconnect penalty.

[spark vigil]

no but i mean, ive DCed before without penalty, like 3 or 4 times in a row. is there a certain trick to it? do you have to leave at a certain time before?

[primal folio]

No, any disconnect at any point will incur a penalty.

[spark vigil]

lol except it doesnt but alright thanks

[primal folio]

You can only freely leave if the text "abandon" appears on your screen.

[hollow smelt]

Why doesnt dbd tracker work

[reef wigeon]

I have a question, we've seen 3 survivors getting added before will it be the same numbers for killers?

[spark vigil]

crazy because ive left several times with it not punishing me

[primal folio]

Per the roadmap in the pins

Note that the Nov chapter is no longer slated for Nov and was delayed to January

[mossy pebble]

Do we have any hints on the liscense?

[primal folio]

Not as of yet

It's still nearly half a year off

[mossy pebble]

September is the biblically accurate angel right

[primal folio]

No, the Grimoire votes are for the 10th Anniv. chapter in June.

There's no way they could take a character from concept to release in the span of a couple weeks, that's inhuman work.

[mossy pebble]

Whats in september then

[primal folio]

We'll find out next month 🙂

[reef wigeon]

What is the concept of licencing, do they take consent of a company character they're going to add?

[primal folio]

Yes of course, it would be illegal to do so otherwise

[mossy pebble]

They pay for the liscense

[primal folio]

They work closely with all IP holders.

[flint kindle]

If they didn’t they’d be sued for Copyright

[tight thicket]

Is the 2v8 game mode going be in custom after the 2v8 event is done?

[mossy pebble]

Prob not

[drifting schooner]

actually nvm with the video posting thing, just recorded a match and am too embarresed to show it to anyone. i did absolutely terrible

[late reef]

How does ghost face work? I want to play the guy cuz he is so silly but I dont understand a thing

[primal folio]

Use power to go undetectable.
While undetactable, press+hold power to stalk survivors in your line of sight.
When stalk is full, the survivor is exposed.
If a survivor looks directly at you, you'll hear a sound queue. If the queue completes, you're kicked out of your power and revealed.
You stalk 2x as fast if you're leaning around an obstacle.

[flint kindle]

Simplest explanation
You stare at people, stare at them long enough you can insta-down them

[waxen scarab]

I know some of the resident evil cosmetics give you special charms (vials) but can somebody tell me which ones give you a charm

[late reef]

Thanks

[late reef]

Thank you for the long and throughout explanation

[late reef]

Also is he Myers on discount?

[fresh leaf]

Can one account be transferred between devices? Like, if i were to start playing on a switch could i sign in on an xbox (and if so how)

[hardy hill]

When is the next Grimoire?
If they're scheduled and stuff

[primal folio]

"Next" Grimoire?

This is the first and only time it's happened

[tepid sequoia]

I think he meant the next chapter of it

[pseudo bane]

maybe they meant the next vote

[primal folio]

Yes and no. Check the crossprog compatibility chart in the pins for more info.

[primal folio]

No such announcements on this

Fairly certain it's a one time special event for the game's 10th anniv. chapter

[fierce quarry]

What websites can I put a clip on to post here for help?

[tepid sequoia]

youtube

[fresh leaf]

So what I’m seeing is I can’t use my switch account on my xbox?

[primal folio]

To clarify, content bought specifically on the Switch eShop will not appear on other platforms.

Everything else will transfer over.

Bloodpoints, shards, characters unlocked with shards or aurics, etc

[nocturne pasture]

No and it never will be. It’s a limited mode

[fresh leaf]

Oh ok that’s what I wanted to know, I’m just having trouble figuring out how to sign in

[primal folio]

First, link your accounts on this page: https://account.bhvr.com/account/my-account/providers

Second, sync the accounts on this page: https://account.bhvr.com/account/my-account/games/dbd

Many people miss the second step. Also review the compability chart for crossprogression in the pins, as Switch players are impacted by this. Finally, if you still have questions, please reach out to BHVR support as we cannot see the status of your account here

[hardy hill]

I meant the next voting
There's multiple votings
When's the next, if we know

[primal folio]

Ah, that I don't know

BHVR will post it on their socials when the time comes.

[rare canyon]

any1 know how to get twitchy nea shirt?

[shut marsh]

For some reason, every time I try to link my steam account on the bhvr website it gives me a 404 page. any fixes? on mobile right now if that’s the issue

[lyric crest]

How do people find the hatch so darn fast? XD Omg each time there is one survivor left they either i kill them or they find the hatch like the second they are last person left.

[normal yarrow]

am i the only one whose fps got halved after latest update? 120 FPS --> 70 FPS

[primal folio]

It nobody brought a hatch offering, it's purely luck

[flint kindle]

There’s a few perks that can show you the hatch or offering that affect it’s spawn but other than that it’s just running around listening and looking

[lyric crest]

ah. Or i just find it and survivor gets to it first. Little annoying but its there for a reason.

[uncut locust]

i’ve had stutters a lot since 2v8 update

[tardy barn]

Is this a good build for knight? Ive been running it but the survivors give up alot

[flint kindle]

Personally as someone who hates playing against Hatch I always try slugging the last 2 survivors but that obviously has it’s risks and problems

[misty obsidian]

Pretty solid

[wide briar]

surge or dead man switch

[vagrant sandal]

what killer r u playing

[wide briar]

Dracula, i got corrupt,surge,pain res,grim embr

[frail dawn]

Does last stand still have increased vault speed ?

[primal folio]

No

[vagrant sandal]

dms is generally better, surge is better for m1 killers. plus pain res + dms can regress an entire gen if you use it correctly.

[wide briar]

does dms and grim embrace work together?

[vagrant sandal]

yes it does

[wide briar]

alr il replace surge with dms i guess this is better, thanks

[lyric crest]

murky reagent. What does it do?

[vagrant sandal]

[flint kindle]

Like the description says
Reagents thicken the mist and fog around the map

https://deadbydaylight.wiki.gg/wiki/Dark_Mist

[wide briar]

[digital raft]

does bg player speed work when youre crouching

[cerulean bane]

yo guys bhvr is safe right

[tepid sequoia]

is your antivirus trying to block dbd or something?

[cerulean bane]

dude it was a question

[tepid sequoia]

yes, and I'm asking for more context

[cerulean bane]

no it didnt

[tepid sequoia]

then what do you mean by "is bhvr safe"?

[cerulean bane]

cuz ive never heard of bhvr before

[tepid sequoia]

it's short for behaviour which is short for behaviour interactive, the company that made dbd

[cerulean bane]

alr thanks

[digital raft]

the devs who made this game? surely not safe

[cerulean bane]

im a pretty new dbd player i didnt know bhvr made dbd

[digital raft]

im just messin with you man

[hazy isle]

Got told mmr is different for every killer u use is that true?

[flint kindle]

What did you think it was?

[digital raft]

yes

[cerulean bane]

a scam since it says free 4500 ire shards

[ashen rivet]

Can someone please make me a blight build that is for a new player

[cerulean bane]

blight isnt recommended for new players

[ashen rivet]

Well could you still make me a build

[reef wigeon]

I think you should choose wraith, blight can be challenging for new players.

[ashen rivet]

Ik how to play him I just don’t know what perks to use

Hello?

[cerulean bane]

i dont play blight idk what perks are good for him

[ashen rivet]

Ok

[cerulean bane]

ask some1 else

[still temple]

Is it true that 2v8 got extended ?

[cerulean bane]

yes until 9th september

[misty tendon]

That makes me so happy! I love this mode.

Where did they announce that?

[bold epoch]

Any tips for Dracula?

[hollow python]

hey guys what is the name of that gamemode where there was another "generator" survivors needed to complete

[worldly ridge]

what are good a good build for oni? i only have the basic perks though

[slate briar]

why am i randomly getting Meet your Maker cosmetics? i don't even play that game

[white yarrow]

man they nerfed streetwise

[tepid sequoia]

Blood moon was the event, I guess the gamemode was named something similar

[tepid sequoia]

Nah, just a rework

[royal mulch]

Whats the rework?

[trim olive]

Hi, so I've not played in a quiiiiite a while and this was the second time I came across something that would block me from damaging a generator. Is it because I hit it too many times or did the survivors have something I didn't realize?

[royal mulch]

Its cuz u hit it too many times. Its to prevent super long never ending 3 gen matches. I wanna say its 8 hits max. But i could be wrong

[tepid sequoia]

Now gives +80% charges to items from chests

[trim olive]

Oooooooooooooooooooh, I suspected that the second match it happened. Thanks!

[wooden lake]

does victor stop survivors from escaping thru hatch?

[tepid sequoia]

Sloppy butcher

[misty relic]

That is a good question. I believe so if i remember correctly

[solid beacon]

I don’t think anything stops survivors escaping through hatch

[dull juniper]

Why can’t you change killers while in a lobby? Is there a reason or just cuz

[dapper willow]

do we know when chaos shuffle will be back

[tulip lark]

How can I complete “a fast death trophy” as the clown I have 5/8 and idk how I did it

[ruby wolf]

has anyone else noticed the auto ready when ur waiting in the play while you wait lobby?

[clever sable]

When you ready up youre locked into that killer for matchmaking because each killer has its own mmr a little

[dull juniper]

Ohhh

[dapper willow]

Does unbreakables dying recovery spd stay after popping it?

[warm lion]

Got 4 Killers to Prestige 1 for their Perks. It's tedious getting 1.1M Blood Points so, in what order should I prioritize 'em?
Pyramid Head, Spring Trap, Lich, Hag

[modest violet]

hey everyone, i may be lacking game knowledge from a killer perspective in 2v8 but i was wondering why is legion able to insta down you while fully healed - i recall this happening a couple of times with other killers in 2v8 but i only have the legion one recorded so i would love to know if someone has an idea if its intended or what am i missing

[dapper willow]

after 5 or six consec hits he can

[modest violet]

ah fair so i assume its the same for 1v4 where he insta downs you after 4 mends?

[dapper willow]

yes

[scarlet garnet]

Yes

[dapper willow]

thanks

[scarlet garnet]

Not mends, in 1v4 he can down in frenzy after 4 hits, and after 8 in 2v8

[dapper willow]

I dont believe its 8 in 2v8

[scarlet garnet]

It is

[grim blaze]

Guys for the characters that can be bought with auric cells and the other currency is it one or the other or do u need both

[modest violet]

thank you! 🙏

[scarlet garnet]

Either

[dapper willow]

its 5 sixth puts in dying state can't send screenshots but its in the 2v8 ability description

[grim blaze]

Ohh ok so I don’t need both?

[primal folio]

nope, one or the other

[grim blaze]

Ok thanks

[primal folio]

FYI, i updated your nickname to remove the discord invite as we do not allow advertising other servers here

[wheat flint]

Chat what would it take for me to get more Ash Williams cosmetics

[grim blaze]

yhyh all good my bad

[primal folio]

It would take you a payment to buy Auric Cells? I don't understand what you're asking

[wheat flint]

I have them all I mean MORE (I want him to have more outfits)

[primal folio]

That's up to the IP holder.

[wheat flint]

I will be contacting Bruce Campbell directly

[dapper willow]

boycott behaviour

[worldly ridge]

^

[crystal vapor]

I have like 100 hours in this game but most of it is on survivor, can someone please give me a guide or something on playing spirit. I love the lore and concept behind her but every time I try to play her everyone just plays window to window or pallet to pallet and I can never catch anyone

or if I do, it takes so long that I get gen rushed. When I play other killers like unknown I dont have this problem at all

[low tide]

Sloppy butcher + corruption + infection fright + deadlock

[radiant phoenix]

basement bubba build?

[uncut kelp]

trade for spyders username adrainhdz96

[primal folio]

what?

[uncut kelp]

spider’s

[primal folio]

Is this a DBD question...?

[worldly ridge]

What do I use if I don’t have corruption or infection fright?

[uncut kelp]

no

[primal folio]

You seem a bit lost mate

[low tide]

uh pain + dead man

[raven wave]

what's a good build for huntress? I only have wraith and spirit unlocked

[radiant phoenix]

check otzdarva’s killer builds on his website. he has a basic perks build for every killer iirc

[uncut kelp]

no really

[radiant phoenix]

yall can someone give me a basement bubba build?

[fierce quarry]

I'm trying to learn unknown, any tips please? <@&253635077693505536>
https://youtu.be/C6cKFWjs2xU (I look so lost at the start because I accidentally swapped lethal instead of pop goes the weasel)

[low tide]

Iron grasp + agitation + noed + undetected perk ( stand still for 1s I forgot name )

[radiant phoenix]

alrr thanks but why noed? (perk is called insidious btw)

[low tide]

It like guaranteed down late game if you mess up your chainsaw ( there some trick comp player use to unhooked basement bubba )

[radiant phoenix]

ah gotchu thanks

[royal copper]

how does reactive healing work?

[low tide]

Whenever your teammate lose health state while you injury
Your healing progress will come up

[worldly ridge]

Alright thanks

[scarlet garnet]

50% of current progress, not total

[dapper willow]

not progress its 50 percent of however much is left so If you haven't started healing it'll do 50% if your already 50% then it would give 25%

[turbid crane]

Does anyone have any tips for console Springtrap?

[crisp glacier]

is there supposed to be a difference?

[errant palm]

gitgud? idk

[turbid crane]

Aiming is extremely harder

The joystick doesn't have as much precise movement as the mouse

[crisp glacier]

err can say the same for huntress?

[turbid crane]

Same thing for huntress, if you have any tips for her I think it would help me out aswell

[crisp glacier]

or any killer with ranged attack? just get used to a good sens. lacking aim on console is just a skill issue

[crisp glacier]

predictions? like knowing where survs will go and not falling for fakes

[turbid crane]

You play console?

[crisp glacier]

<50hrs

[turbid crane]

Thank you for giving me day 1 knowledge

[raven wave]

getting a lot of points in survival is only possible when you escape?

[errant palm]

nah doing objectives already gives alot of bp

[crisp glacier]

u have a day 1 problem

[turbid crane]

If you want me to be more specific, how do you deal with god pallets and loops with large walls

[primal folio]

A full list of score events and how to trigger them can be found here: https://deadbydaylight.wiki.gg/wiki/Score_Events

[analog vessel]

Is there any other killer that will give me that 10iq consistent dopamine rush of continuously zapping people that doc does?

[turbid crane]

Do you force the pallet, mind play or leave the chase

[crisp glacier]

situational.

[errant palm]

u cant really mindgame a god pallet either u break it or just leave the chase its called god pallet for a reason its supposed to make u break it

[turbid crane]

Maybe the trickester but doctor is one of a kind

[analog vessel]

Nah I tried him last event and I wasn't a fan

[turbid crane]

I don't think there's any character that can inflict as much dopamine as the doctor honestly

[analog vessel]

It gives me joy knowing I'm constantly annoying them

[turbid crane]

It's kinda like the huntress. you can try other projectile killers but she is the best so why bother.

[crisp glacier]

dopamine withdrawals 🥀

[dapper willow]

tombstone myers watching their life fade before your eyes

[turbid crane]

I would say tombstone myers but sadly lockers exist

[dapper willow]

thats why there is so much dopamine its so rare

[turbid crane]

OH SHIT I FORGOT BUBBA EXISTS @analog vessel

[dapper willow]

I don't even have to run tombstone for people to hop in lockers

[turbid crane]

Get that iri add-on and go to town

[analog vessel]

Is he fun I played him a lot in that Texas chainsaw massacre game

[turbid crane]

He is easy and fun

[dapper willow]

4k with the iri is unbelievably fun

[analog vessel]

Sounds like what I'm looking for than you

[turbid crane]

It's like a oni but with slower speed, limited power but better movement

[dapper willow]

is it just me or is the average match more bloodpoints then 2v8 survivor

[turbid crane]

And the power is available at all times

[turbid crane]

It says 500% but it doesn't feel like 500%. Someone can do the math for me but i think im getting scammed

[dapper willow]

running iron maiden with bubba and hillbilly is so funny as you watch them realize their dead regardless

[turbid crane]

The only reason i stopped playing bubba is because he is just way to easy

[dapper willow]

same

I'm prestiging every character till p3 and only playing them so I haven't played much of anyone in particular in a bit

[warm wadi]

What do y'all think about Oppression as a perk? Especially when you're already running gen kick stuff (pop, gen stealth, eruption, nowhere to hide)

[fervent ermine]

Chat does anyone have tips for Skilled Huntress on ps5

It's one of the last 6 trophies I need, and I am struggling like hell

[uncut vigil]

wasted slot imo its not that good

[raven wave]

sable perks are good?

[rare fjord]

so hypothetically imagine you’re in a 2v8 and you got exposed by ghostface, can wesker just instadown you with his grab?

[uncut vigil]

wicked and strengths is good

[primal folio]

No. Powers do not benefit from exposed.

[dapper willow]

how yall feel about deception personally one of my favorite perks

[solar frost]

Funny but bad

[shell nexus]

have they fixed nemesis being completely countered by holding crouch for no reason or should i not bother playing him again

[uncut vigil]

you mean crouching over a window vault?

[dapper willow]

Not that good but in certain scenerios mainly rpd in certain loops if you play it right you can completely lose the killer

[shell nexus]

or pallet or knee high wall or bush, i haven't played in like a year but i rememberit being so hilariously stupid i quit playing him

basically he seemed like an anti loop killer that couldn't anti loop if anyone on the enemy team knew about the ctrl button on their keyboard and was therefore nearly useless if someone just crouch spammed ruining the game entirely so i quit playing nemesis

[north token]

does brutal strength work on blights power?

[uncut vigil]

that is in the game since nemesis released i think, his hitbox does not hit over some obstacles to reach a crouched survivor

[raven wave]

why the killers with high ping can hit things that dosen't make sense?

[shell nexus]

rip was hoping bhvr made a good change, i see they somehow nerfed skull merchant about 7 times for no reason too lol, goofy ah balance

[uncut vigil]

for the most part you're better whipping when they are in the vault animation (get your distances) or M1s, no need to greed it

[shell nexus]

unless they predrop and then crouch behind the pallette, since the current amount of pallettes in the game highly encourages running and predropping atm'

[primal folio]

It 'made sense' on the killer's screen.

That's the nature of latency.

[spark vigil]

is dbd hackable? likee wall hacks etc? just played against nurse and usually its pretty fine since im at a low mmr but somehow i was getting sniped likee perfectly when i was nowhere near the killer? 😭 honestly was pretty impressive they hit me either way since to gauge the power on the tp perfectly was crazy

i was just surprised since i dont have many hours and sbmm typically im not being put against someone whos put thousands of hours into playing as nurse?? seems.. off but maybe im making excuses ;p

[shell nexus]

most nurse players at low mmr use the grey add on that lets you see where you are teleporting to exactly even through walls, i'm not good enough at nurse to get a single kill without it

[spark vigil]

wait so it tells you how much power you need to get to that spot too?

[timber iris]

Do you know what perks they were using? A lot of nurses also enjoy stacking up on reading your aura to be able to teleport on top of you

[primal folio]

I suggest reviewing the player's perks once the game ends if you're ever unsure how something happens

[timber iris]

You get a little indicator that moves forward along with your range as you charge it up, and when you let go, you land where the indicator was

[shell nexus]

it shows you a highlighted spot on the ground where you will end up and it slowly moves away from you while you build up charge, so you can see exactly where you will land, try a game with it, it's huge for beginners and nurse's base kit is powerful enough that you don't need add ons to win(just skill which i don't always have)

[spark vigil]

wha so it just.. removes everything that makes nurse hard? 😭😭 tf is the point then nurse is meant to be hard to master but the most rewarding as a result (but good to know :O)

[shell nexus]

not necessarily, try a game with it and you'll be surprised by the nurse skill floor

[primal folio]

Nurse really isn't difficult at all, no. Once you learn her blinks (it takes, like... 3 games) then you've already mastered her.

Sure there's some tile specific intricacies or interesting plays you could pull off, but she is extremely straight forward once you establish muscle memory.

[silent jackal]

I have a question about 2v8. Is there a bloodpoint limit? Bc it wont give me any bloodpoints for killer or survivor

[primal folio]

$bpcap

[frank arch]

Ehh I wouldn't say that, there are a lot of mindgames involved with blinks

blinking at mid-close range in the open is easy though

[copper glen]

• Bloodpoints earned specifically from playing in a trial are capped at 5 million.
• Bloodpoints earned outside of trials (such as grade reset bonuses, login rewards, quest rewards, the weekly shop gift, and so on) have no cap and can be gathered infinitely.
• Example: You have 3mil BP from playing games. Grade reset just happened and you earned another 2mil BP. You're now at 5mil BP total, but you can still earn another 2mil BP as you have not hit the 5mil cap from trials.
• When spending BP, you always spend bonus/gift BP first.

[spark vigil]

im ngl its a lil weird bc there were no aura reading perks at all lol so idk how they always knew exactly where everyone was, like they were travelling across floors too so they couldnt have had any line of sight

[primal folio]

what perks did they have?

[silent jackal]

When does it reset?

[primal folio]

When does what reset?

[spark vigil]

NHB so js blocking gen, haunted ground so js adding exposed, thana and bitter murmur

[primal folio]

Bitter is an aura perk.

A gen being blocked by NHB also provides info on where survivors were repairing.

[silent jackal]

Bloodpoints in 2v8 bc i keep getting none

[spark vigil]

we had 5 gens done lol we didnt complete anything

[primal folio]

Bloodpoint cap never resets. Gotta spend them.

[turbid crane]

I have <200hrs

[visual wing]

what is a good kill rate for trapper?

[primal folio]

Killers are balanced around a 60% kill rate. Close to that and you're doing pretty good.

[limber birch]

any reason why Deathbound now shows the survivor auras?

[turbid crane]

To be honest, you shouldn't really care about kill rates because every match is different due to the perks and it will be impossible for you to win all of them

[primal folio]

It was part of the same patch to compensate the lower range.

[limber birch]

i saw that, but saw it was undocumented for some reason @primal folio

[primal folio]

Correct

[turbid crane]

Try to improve yourself everytime you lose but don't be too hard on yourself

[slate briar]

the one that lets u unhook in basement is good

[elder shore]

Does anybody know how to pronounce the names of Aestri Yazar and Baermar Uraz? I can't seem to find an official pronounciation, and I've heard them said many different ways by different YouTubers

[raven wave]

why?

[bold epoch]

Is legion able to insta down in 2v8?

[slate briar]

tfym why bc u can unhook urself in basement

[raven wave]

but what if I don't go down near the basement?

[elder shore]

then you can't unhook yourself

[raven wave]

so why is it good?

[elder shore]

Because if you do down near basement you can unhook yourself

[raven wave]

but if I don't then it's useless?

isn't just better to use deliverance?

[elder shore]

It's a matter of taste

[midnight canyon]

whats the best class for huntress on 2v8

[elder shore]

Also the Sable one reveals killer aura for a while if you unhook yourself

[raven wave]

and that is useful?

[elder shore]

Is aura reading ever not useful?

[raven wave]

alert isn't better? you can hear the killer heart beat when you are on the first hook, so why would you care about seeing the killer when you unhook yourself?

[elder shore]

I don't know man. It does what it does. Use it or don't

[raven wave]

I don't have sable, I liked her battlepass free skin
is the quality always that high? the ones on the paid track are interesting too

[balmy comet]

Should I buy the dread or someone else

[visual wing]

isnt kill rates for better killers going to be hgiher tho same for the more lower tier killers with the kill rates being lower

[primal folio]

All killers are balanced around a 60% kill rate. The overall player average may or may not be close to that value.

[visual wing]

😭 ok sure but wont higher tier like dracula have an on average higher kill rate than a skull merchant tho who is much worse that most killers

[primal folio]

Probably, yes.

[fleet karma]

how do i perform a fast vault so finesse activates?

[primal folio]

You need to be running towards the window at a fairly perpendicular angle for roughly 1 second.

[fleet karma]

[silent jackal]

Is the Rift pass worth it?

[primal folio]

It's only cosmetics. Your call if they're to your taste. Note that the rift does refund itself with 1000 auric cells if you complete it.

[silent jackal]

Probably will buy it but im still uneasy about spending all my bloodpoints so i can earn them again

[primal folio]

Bloodpoints come quick, no need to hold onto 'em really

[silent jackal]

So i can go on spending spree?

[granite ridge]

Just curious, does anyone know where I could find tournament or like more structured dbd games that are not super competitive like DBDLeague?
I know this sounds like a weirdly specific request but I want the sort of tournament setting without the pressure and also without playing against only 10k hours people

[primal folio]

Go for it, you'll get plenty more BP quickly

[silent jackal]

This is gonna be fun

[gray nest]

Oh I thought it was only like 500

[silent jackal]

Which killer should i buy after nemesis i have Legion and Nemesis and thats it?

[zinc urchin]

what does LF2 mean?

[visual wing]

looking for 2 i assume

[coral otter]

The wiki and everything says the eye of vecna makes you actually invisible when rush exiting a locker... but do theh mean invisble as in like, invisible invisible? Or just aura hidden plus scratch and blood hidden XD

[gusty hornet]

would you guys consider skull merchant hard for a first time killer? i also read somewhere that she's buggy rn, but that was a reddit post made almost a year ago 🌚

[primal folio]

Completely totally invisible. You gone.

[coral otter]

That's crazy sauce. Thanks :3

[primal folio]

Costs a health state to use, keep that in mind.

[coral otter]

Yup yup

[coral otter]

I'm not sure she's exactly difficult... her power isn't too difficult to understand. But she's a very poor killer. Even if you know what to do with her, her power isn't really amazing so I guess it would do you good learning how to be a m1 killer? XD

Like generally speaking most people consider her to have the worst power in the game... as far as I know?

[gusty hornet]

mmkay thank you! i bought sadako, but i was horrible at it lmfao. so it was suggested to me to practice m1 killers like legion to get used to her. skull merchant was just so pretty & i loved her outfits. but i never heard anything good or bad about her.

[coral otter]

The way I see her is she's trapper except more complex but also not as good XD like you can play her if you want to. It would defo give you the m1 experience at least

she has a little bit of built in info

[gusty hornet]

i genuinely hated trapper so much he made me rage quit in a custom match with bots 💀 so i appreciate the warning

[coral otter]

You dunno what she does at all?

[opal forum]

How do I fix easy anti cheat error, this dam thing is about to make me crash out as I've been dealing with this error for 3 days, tried anything I could think to fix such as deleting and reinstalling/verifying the files, reinstalling the game after uninstalling and deleting the files from my PC, turning my PC off f9r 6 hours, doing normal verify files AND IT STILL KICKS ME FROM LOBBYS WITH THE ERROR TO VALIDATE MY EASY ANTI CHEAT ACCOUNT!

Please help as this is genuinely pissing me off at this point and before anyone even says something stupid like "uninstall your cheats bro" i don't play with modified clients or have any software that could indirectly be messing with easy anti cheat.

[chrome swift]

anyone having freezing issues or shuttering issues with dbd? im not sure why but recently my game has been freezing frames constantly every couple of seconds

[open zephyr]

which build should i run
adrenaline / hope / we're gonna live forever / no one left behind
or
still sight / eyes of belmont / scene partner / object of obsession

[devout leaf]

uninstall the game. reinstall it.

[open zephyr]

did u even read what he said 😭?

[silent jackal]

Is the perk Play with your food good?

[devout leaf]

i aint readin all that. saw something about eac though

[gusty hornet]

skull merchant? or sadako? i just keep manifesting & demanifesting at the worst times 😭 i know i need to just get used to killer period, bc it's very weird for me being in first person mode when i'm used to survivor

[coral otter]

I meant Skull Merchant, sorry

[opal forum]

tried that, didnt work

[devout leaf]

you try updating eac then?

[opal forum]

done that as well, still problematic

[gusty hornet]

i don't, i just kept reading on reddit that she was a low power killer but i wanted to make sure that was still the case today incase she had a rework & was actually good lmfaooo

[coral otter]

Ohhh, makes sense. Yeah, worst killer in the game for winning now probably XD she used to be the best in the game, but not in a fun way

[open zephyr]

is there a reason to why i cant turn off cross-play?

[primal folio]

You're in a lobby. Gotta do it from the main menu.

[topaz jay]

how to report cheater with footage?

[primal folio]

$ingame

[copper glen]

To report players, you must use the in-game report system. Additional evidence can be sent in through a support ticket: https://support.deadbydaylight.com/

[silent jackal]

Who would you buy and in what order and if: The deathlinger, the shape,the cannibal, the blight

[proper escarp]

cannibal, blight, slinger, shape

[silent jackal]

Why if i may ask bc im thinking about buying one of them

[proper escarp]

because cannibal has a good beginner perk which is called bbq

blight has undying and blood favor which is both strong + strong killer

slinger is shite but he has a strong perk called dms, shape has bullshit perks + weak

[silent jackal]

Ok apreciate it mate

[proper escarp]

i would actually rather buy plague first

[devout leaf]

bbq is good for anyone. more people should use it tbh. quit camping hooks actin like "i dont know where anyone is at"

[silent jackal]

I bought plague like 5 min ago👍

[proper escarp]

she has the best killer perk corrupt + infectous fright which is rly good for high mobility killer

[silent jackal]

I bought: the artist, the ghostface, the knight, the plague, nemesis, trickster, demogorgon and i bought legion yesterday

[proper escarp]

knight is good coz he has nowhere to hide but shite killer

demo has surge which is strong m1 killer perk + mindbreaker is good but its not clutch

[silent jackal]

And will buy cannibal as you recommended

[proper escarp]

if ur new i suggest bbq yea, it helps alot understanding where survivors can be when u hook

[devout leaf]

thats a lot of buying. hope you got the bundle pack dlc that had that in it.

[silent jackal]

Or buy deathslinger and blight and buy cannibal later

[proper escarp]

na bro get bbq, blight's killer + perks arent beginner friendly either

[silent jackal]

Ok

[devout leaf]

its not a massive secret they will be working on gens farthest away from where you currently are at...

[proper escarp]

yea but u can catch rotations too which u wouldnt really think of

[crisp glacier]

me too 😔

[silent jackal]

Now to spend 7mil bloodpoints

[warm wadi]

I have <200 hrs... but probably way more youtube hours... is that bad?

[crisp glacier]

avg bbq glazer

[primal folio]

There is no "bad" hour count, I don't understand the question exactly

[crisp glacier]

nah im the exact same ngl

[hollow stump]

If i show video evidence of people teaming can i get them banned

[proper escarp]

i dont play bbq bro, dont need it

[crisp glacier]

what a party pooper

[devout leaf]

So i know you're new and i been helping you over the last few days. but at this point with everything you bought, you're in way over your head and need to play A LOT to even get to use the perks from the killers you're buying because you're just listening to people telling you to drop a bunch of money on the game you just bought. this is generally a bad idea from the rip also. because you're not really learning how to play the game. you're just doing things to play for perks. this is a really bad cycle to be stuck in.

[hollow stump]

U must love making the game unfair

[crisp glacier]

not that serious bud, its not happening every game now is it

[tight zephyr]

play a little more before spending more money i find more value from knights nowhere to hide than i do bbq

[warm wadi]

I use nowhere like 10x more often than bbq... tbf I like gen kick in general

[crisp glacier]

im lucky , i was in this typa situation wanting to buy shit but it was summer sale so i did and dont regret it much only cuz it was so cheap and i play

[tight zephyr]

i did this during anni

[silent jackal]

I didnt bought cannibal i will first unlock the perks from the killers that i bought today and maybe another time

[crisp glacier]

me too lmao, how do you get prestiged role?

[tight zephyr]

500ish messages

[primal folio]

Prestige is not tied to message count; it's activity over time.

More info in #welcome

[crisp glacier]

thanks madous, needed that

[tight zephyr]

i think at some point during the anni steam said i put in 153 hours in the last 2 weeks

[primal folio]

Please move to #game-discussion if you do not have questions, cheers

[silent jackal]

I will at least have some more killers to play until now i enjoyed Legion and im really enjoying Nemesis

[crisp glacier]

you get it for being active apparently

[tight zephyr]

i had booster role when i got it so i never noticed that i got it

[crisp glacier]

ahh maybe boosting will help

[tight zephyr]

it does not help

[crisp glacier]

devotion 5 role asw (not even 1 yet)

[fickle grove]

Devotion 5 is for the Veteran role

Prestiged is just for being active in this server's chats

[cloud basin]

how long is the dracula skin out for? i want it buts its $20 and cant get it rn so i just wanna make sure when to buy it BEFORE 😭

[arctic echo]

Hey, please move on to our General chat if you are not asking questions specifically about DBD. Madous already mentioned this once.

[fickle grove]

Permanently!

[tight zephyr]

returning rift skins are permanent

[cloud basin]

oh actually? thats cool thank you 🙏
@tight zephyr didnt know that thanks for letting me know

the blue rift skin looked kinda poop in my opinion anyways

[shrewd crane]

Is this a good build for blight
Corrupt Intervention
Dms
Pain Res
Spies from the shadows

[tight zephyr]

id replace spies with nowhere to hide and corrupt with grim

[silent jackal]

Yeah i know and im really thankful for the help

[shrewd crane]

Sounds good to me thank you

[sudden acorn]

Do we know at all when we'll be able to vote on the cosmetic contest?

[tight zephyr]

yeah i dont find much value out of corrupt since he can start his first chase really quickly

[lethal aspen]

hey guys i bought the juggernaut xenomorph skin but i kinda regret it and like the base more, since i like the base more ive been thinking about buying grid xenomorph skin since its cheap and similar to the base, and i like avp and the design looks good, do you guys think i should buy it or would it be a waste of money?

[shrewd crane]

Very true

@tight zephyr any add-ons you'd recommend?

[tight zephyr]

the green addon that recharges your rush tokens .33 seconds faster is good

[maiden flume]

Anyone been getting deafness on some audio? Like I can barely hear the sounds of fast vaults, grunts of pain, and hook scream but chase music and other sounds just fine

[subtle solstice]

token recovery rate and the blighted rat addon

[tight zephyr]

i wouldnt use anything that changes turn rate or speed if youre new to blight so you can learn his base

but blighted rat is really good

[fleet rivet]

Anyone else not able to play cus easy anti cheat claims your acc isn’t validated? How do I fix?

[silent jackal]

When im leveling up my killers should i lvl up them manually or advance?

[primal folio]

If you're looking for something specific in the web, do manual.
Otherwise, do auto or bulk spend

Bulk spend?

So I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask but my PC and stuff isn't strong and I don't realize my game "crashes" or "freezes" it lags really hard but I still have storage I use a tv aswell I have it linked to my PC any help? It disconnects me from wifi too

[maiden flume]

I usually just restart my PC everytime that happens to me.

[radiant phoenix]

grim instead of corrupt and maybe bbq instead of spies imo

[shrewd crane]

Why BBQ?

[obsidian breach]

I've been matchmaking locked for 15 minutes is my ban even though it's out of my control with what the old PC has it's not the best but it's enough to run it

[tight zephyr]

travels fast gets to people fast

[shrewd crane]

True but I have a problem with that perk where I'm just completely blind

[tight zephyr]

nowhere to hide is probably a better perk then

[shrewd crane]

I can't see anybody when I use BBQ doesn't help I don't haven't leveled up all the way on blight

[frosty tide]

So i recently switched to PlayStation from Xbox and used cross progression with the same exact gamertag and I have this friend from Xbox added on Xbox but when I try to add him on PlayStation thru dbd it won’t let him accept my friend request what should I do?

[tired bloom]

Guys what’s the best build to 4k sweat team in custom match?

[obsidian breach]

So I have screenshots of the person who harassed my team there was lots of hashtags so I have no clue what he was saying it was Not That Charles X...

[fluid depot]

ok ty, where do u find this resource?

[pulsar gazelle]

otzdarva.com

[pulsar gazelle]

corr, pain res, dms or grim, a gen regression / whatever of your choise

[pulsar gazelle]

game has no way of knowing if you alt + f4 or leave due to crash / whatever and frankly if you incurred 15mins that means you crashed multiple times………maybe be a tad bit considerate to others and play something your pc can run

[north token]

hi guys, i want to get one of these 4 killers mainly for perks but i do want to play them from time to time, dredge, unknown, singularity, hound master. i can get dredge rn for 4.5k or save up to 9k to get one of the other 3, the issue with dredge is his perks are mid and im not interested in playing him at all, but im interested in the other killers, is it worth saving up the 9k and getting one of the other 3? if so then which one of the 3 do i get?

[uncut vigil]

get unknown or hound

[pulsar gazelle]

theres probably a sale during halloween if you can wait that long. personal recommendation is singu (very demanding to play) or unknown (also demanding but more intuitive gameplay loop)

[north token]

i can wait for halloween sale, will halloween sale lower the prices of paid killers too?

[obsidian breach]

it only happened twice at first it was one minute then it was 15

[lethal summit]

Anyone want a pig build?

[midnight grotto]

Save up to get any of the other 3

[uncut vigil]

maybe you need an upgrade.

[north token]

whos more fun and who has better perks?

[obsidian breach]

i do

[uncut vigil]

unknown has better perks and more fun but also requires you to consistently hit uvx, houndmaster is simpler and easier to force pallets and hits
singularity is the most mechanically demanding but can be very strong if you learn it

[north token]

thank you

[bold epoch]

What is the best build for Dracula?

[deft wolf]

is head on's hitbox supposed to be so big? sometimes it works after they got out or when im not near the locker

[smoky drum]

i think its 2.5 meters, kinda huge

[deft wolf]

is way bigger than it sounds

[deft wolf]

tbh dracula does a lot so his best option is slowdown, next up is a haste build

[bold epoch]

Also any tips for Dracula? Specifically for aiming the hellfire

[pulsar gazelle]

what these guys said, also remember that in this game as you run, your hitbox lingers a bit behind you. This is why you say get hit by a hatchet as you turn a corner or get hit by lunge through window even after vault animation

[deft wolf]

dont break every pallet you see, some can be useful for tping, use the hellfire to zone

[pulsar gazelle]

i think yes, depends on the license. The newer ones usually arent on sale

[deft wolf]

ohh. thats why i get hit by head on after animation

[pulsar gazelle]

ya it also creates some niche scenarious such as singu teleporting inside of you instead of behind you

[north token]

ah thank you

[half remnant]

Whats a good build for a healing build using only free perks

[north token]

looking at the licensed killers only + springtrap, who would you guys recommend for mainly fun, and secondly good perks?

[half remnant]

I only have bought springtrap but I think he's pretty fun

[deft wolf]

worst perks are dracula kaneki and lich , xenomorph has rapid brutality which is good but chucky has ftte and batteries included which are very good aswell. chucky does have a bad power though while kaneki is very strong. lich and dracula are meh but pretty fun with multiple powers built in

[bold epoch]

What are the best addons for Dracula?

[pulsar gazelle]

there are many options. I run double gray (trans cd + speed), a lot of ppl run the bat form window vault + cd or wolf form pounce cd from orbs one. sorry dont remember the names

[pulsar gazelle]

fun: highly subjective but dracula (shit perks tho) or unkown (also ass perks)

From those the best perks are in order: chucky, singu, xeno, drac, houndmaster, unknown, kaneki (kaneki has great perks but they are all very gimmicky)

to add to this if you care abt strength (again a bit subjective) the order is:
kaneki > dracula > singu > vecna and the rest are kinda similar in strength with houndmaster / xeno gapping rest of em

[bold epoch]

I’m so confused by how you worded this sorry

[pulsar gazelle]

A lot of options. I use travellers hat + clock tower gear, a lot of people use lapis lazuli + killer doll / medusa hair / clocktower gear / travellers hat.

[bold epoch]

Tysm🙏

[zealous loom]

You have plenty of perks to choose from. Some options:

Autodidact (Adam)
Botany Knowledge (Claudette)
Desperate Measures (Felix)
Made For This (Gabriel)
Solidarity (Jane)
We'll Make It (Universal)
We're Gonna Live Forever (David)

[bold epoch]

Whats the best build for Dracula?

[copper glen]

@hot pagoda 🚫➡️ Your message content contains flagged text

[plush moat]

There isn’t a definitive best build for any killer in this game. With Dracula being one of the strongest characters, capable of downing survivors very quickly and traversing the map with ease, he is very independent from his builds, leaving him free to use whatever he wants (for the most part).

The most obvious option would be the standard slowdown perks. Pain Resonance, Pop Goes the Weasel, Grim Embrace, etc - all work great with killers like Dracula. Chase perks are fun but if you’re trying to optimise your gameplay they’re mostly redundant, since Dark Lord doesn’t really need them.

[untold mulch]

theres not a channel for that, on the website is a section for that

[broken dawn]

Thank you. My first suggestion is that they make a channel for that on Discord!

[deft wolf]

why did the game let me mori the last survivor but not insta kill the guy on hook? i dont have the offering

[zealous loom]

Because you can mori the last survivor basekit. Either when they are the only one left (3 others have escaped or are also dead), or when the second to last survivor is on hook and in struggle phase.

[deft wolf]

but i thought when everyone was dead besides one guy on hook it would insta kill him after i mori'd no?

[untold mulch]

yes but it takes the game some time to realise they are all dead

[deft wolf]

he just burned out the whole 2 hook states instead of insta dying

[untold mulch]

guess u found another bug

[zealous loom]

You say you didn't have the offering, but what perks were you running and on what killer.

[deft wolf]

huntress

[untold mulch]

I have 2250 iri shards, should i buy spirit hag or clown

[tribal idol]

Strictly for perks I'd get Clown first.

[untold mulch]

not playing any of them anyways its only about the perks

[zealous loom]

Strange. None of those perks allow for a mori.

[tribal idol]

Then I'd recommend Clown, Spirit, then maybe Hag if you like hex perks, though keep in mind how unreliable those are.

[untold mulch]

i know how to play around hex perks got pretty good at it

[tribal idol]

That still unfortunately won't much help you if your totem spawns out in the open and gets cleansed immediately.

[untold mulch]

ye, was lucky til now

[gloomy fractal]

Do bamboozle and dark arrogance stack?

[split compass]

are you only ok with the licensed killers listed or all of them?

[zealous loom]

Yes

[deft wolf]

clown definetly, spirit has very situational perks that normally need to be combo'd and hexes are pretty weak meanwhile pop is one of the best slowdown perks and bamboozle is a need perk. couldrophobia is kinda good too for some killers

wait, you don't get BP from matches over 5 mil? is that why my BP has been stagnant..?

[pulsar gazelle]

yes bp is capped at 5mill although gifts and things such as the 5mill compensation bypass this cap

[untold mulch]

theres a 5 mil cap to match earnable bloodpoints, daily or weekly rewards, codes and outtage rewards ignore that cap

LP is not the one u should be focusing on when he has eruption

[tribal idol]

Can Wraith close a hatch while cloaked like he can break pallets and kick gens?

[untold mulch]

yes

[tribal idol]

Is there anything else he can do while cloaked that's not immediately obvious to someone who doesn't play that killer?

[royal copper]

I was lied to before omg this makes sense now thank you

[zealous loom]

What Wraith can do while cloaked:

• Kick pallets, walls and gens
• Close hatch
• Vault windows

What Wraith can't do while cloaked:

• Attack
• Interact with glyphs
• Pick up survivors

Another thing to note: when Wraith is pallet stunned while cloaked, he suffers an increased stun duration.

Anyone know how to pronounce Aestri's name?

im kinda new so not entirely sure what im doing but my missue is i cannot run away from killers theyre always faster then me and i mainly do gen builds so idk how to fix this

[still temple]

is there any new code ?

[pulsar gazelle]

theres a lot of things, i would suggest checking out content creators (like otzdarva) who put up new player guides and explain game basics. the game is built in such a way that by default killers are 110-115% movement speed and survs 100% so in a vacuum the killer will always catch you

heres a personal recommendation you should watch: https://youtu.be/IEaIPIPwfMo?si=zB0bgFwf4r2Y1eLy

[frail nexus]

ty!

[fallen ferry]

does still sight activate while doing gens?

[hazy isle]

Is windows,lithe,finesse and resilience the most generic build?

if you are doing an action (repair, healing) it does not but if you are say getting healed it does

[fallen ferry]

is there any aura perk that does?

[fiery wolf]

is wesker better then clown

fogwise or poised come to mind, there are others

[hazy isle]

Whats a good way to learn about perks and builds for survivor?

[pulsar gazelle]

yea pretty much

[hazy isle]

I wanna learn about perks and builds how can I learn more about that

[late reef]

What's the best Singularity build overall? Also where should I place the cameras

[hollow rivet]

$shrine

[copper glen]

This week's shrine contains the Killer Perks: Iron Maiden (The Legion) & Hex: Nothing But Misery (The Ghoul) and the Survivor Perks: Red Herring (Zarina Kassir) & Rapid Response (Orela Rose)

[pulsar gazelle]

nightlight.gg lists the most common perks played by each side i would just look at those. note that its community stats so may not 100% reflect reality but you get some idea at least

[frail nexus]

whats a good way to get bloodpoints bc im always needing them

[zealous loom]

Bring offerings that increase your points by 100%. The Escape Cake (Survivor), Survivor Pudding (Killer) and Bloody Party Streamers are good options. Currently, 2 v 8 Survivor queue has a 5x multiplier, which also helps a lot.

[pulsar gazelle]

singu is really flexible and versatile you can play pretty much anything. common builds are either a gen-kick focused build to better hold a 3 gen (stuff like pop, eruption) or a more generic playstyle (corrupt, pain res, whatever). Some people also enjoy brutal or bamboozle but i dont personally think you need brutal but there is a use case for bam.

As far as cams go, if you play corrupt intervention the first cam(s) should be focused on tagging survs asap. On some maps you can get a tag and tp in first <30s of the match. Other than that you place cams to protect gens and or common loops, cam placement is one of the skill aspects of the killer so i cant rly give you a definitive answer

also forgot to say but rapid brutality is great on singu as you will be tp:ing anyways so you dont rly ever get bloodlust

[molten needle]

is watching mori for the free skin ingame for 1 time bannable?

[tribal idol]

What is it that makes Corrupt good enough to use a perk slot for when it gets disabled so quickly most of the time? Wouldn't you typically be better off using Lethal Pursuer and seeking out the survivors with that?

[pulsar gazelle]

im just no 1. corrupt advocate, its pretty much a free lethal anyways and on maps where you need more time to set up cams it helps a lot. also pushes survs out of a possible 3 gen you can protect later. its not entirely necessary tho and you could just run whatever, i just like it and prefer it over lethal due to the auto zoning it provides

[tribal idol]

How does it translate to other killers? The only ones that come to mind are either super low mobility killers or Plague in particular.

[pulsar gazelle]

excellent question, i dont rly have an answer i just have this fallacy that if i dont run it the first gen pops in 60s which it does anyways. the zoning and 3 gen aspects apply to all killers a bit, you dont technically need to hold a 3 gen ever but any killer can do it if need be, mobility killers ofc better than others.

But yea if i played killers like blight, kaneki, nurse or billy i would tale lethal instead as the first down can be giga fast.

[dense lynx]

What’s the best first killer to get?

[tribal idol]

So how would I get started with playing Larry? He seems very different from the killers I'm used to. What's the best placement for cameras? Some distance from a gen, but with vision of it? Shack and main?

[gloomy fractal]

Does nothing but misery works only if survivor been injured? Or does deep wounding also counts?

[random rune]

Hey guys, new to DBD

Is windows of opportunity, lithe, alert and deja vu a solid build before i get any better perks?

[twilit fossil]

Is the obsession always the best survivor?

[wraith yoke]

Absolutely.

[tribal idol]

Alert is good, but you and your team might get more use out of Kindred which is also a general perk. It's a solid loadout though!

[slate briar]

windows and deja vu is good but run bond aswell

[wraith yoke]

No. Obsession is selected random each match. Some survivors may use perks to make them the obsession though.

[tribal idol]

That or perks like Decisive Strike or Object of Obsession. Some perks also reduce your odds of becoming the obsession, and some killer perks will switch the obsession status to someone else.

[late reef]

Do people get alerted when I watch them as sing?

[wraith yoke]

Such a clever mouse. 💞

[zenith wedge]

i want to die with style so whats the best outfit from leon? 😄

[random rune]

alright, kindred it is then

i'm really happy about the 7.5m bloodpoints i got right as i downloaded the game, helped me out a lot with getting perks

[wraith yoke]

Chris.

[pulsar gazelle]

uh again highly map dependant but in general around gens, in high places such as trees so you can see larger area and some mains. make sure you have 1-2 cams you can throw during chase.

[gloomy fractal]

Sing?

[late reef]

Singularity

[wraith yoke]

They can hear the noise when you switch biopods. Also they have special effect when you’re using one.

[gloomy fractal]

If you just watch through broken surveillance they cant

[tribal idol]

How much distance should I be keeping from a generator while still being within range to avoid EMP blasts taking out multiple cameras at once? I also need to avoid hooks, correct?

[random rune]

oh also, are there any controller killers here? Istg i tried to play killer with a controller, it's nothing but misery (HA GET IT), only survivor seems playable with it-

[wraith yoke]

The Spirit.

[random rune]

the most problem i have with the controller when playing the killer is camera movement

[ruby nest]

You dont worry about that as Singularity. You put your Pods in high spots around Gens where you can get full coverage or as much coverage of the gen as possible. You dont worry about them EMPing them too much since you'll never have 2 Pods super close to each other unless you place 1 down in the middle of chase to TP or bait them to vault.

[pulsar gazelle]

this

[ruby nest]

Source: Singu Main for like 6months now non-stop lol

[tribal idol]

I see, thank you, that helps a lot. What about other areas of interest, like main loops? Do I want to place cameras there too?

[still basin]

yall i js bought dracula should i get lich or onryo with my other 500?

[random rune]

lich

[quartz socket]

Yall what does FSR in the settings mean? 😭

[ruby nest]

So general rule of thumb for Singu, as soon as you spawn in, place a Pod anywhere around you that is a high location that can cover said area, look for the closest 3 gens, place Pods around those 3 gens, now your last handful of Pods, 2-3 can be used in high traffic locations where you know survivors normally run around, Shack for example, or just a strong tile setup, and save 1 or 2 pods for when you're chasing survivors since you can place them ahead of the survivor and switch to the cam, look at them for a split second and when they get the indicator they'll usually turn around and run into you and you just cancel your camera and M1 them.

[still basin]

Anyone else?

[wraith yoke]

FSR is a setting in games where it renders the game at a lower than native resolution and upscales it. This typically runs better than native with usually minimal to no hits to image quality at its highest setting. The quality will vary with the game and the upscaling method used.

[scarlet garnet]

Vecna is stronger, sadako has better perks

[ruby nest]

Also remember when switching to Cams as Singu HOLD Ctrl. Dont tap it. If you Hold Control and someone is in the radius of your Pod it'll auto aim onto them so you can infect them super quick.

[tribal idol]

Thank you, that sounds great, I really need to try this guy out sometime soon. He looks really fun and quite strong and like a killer you really never stop learning with.

[pulsar gazelle]

also auto aim sometimes gets em in a place that seems weird using manual aim if you arent used to the reticle

[ruby nest]

Pretty spot on. Rapid Brutality and STBFL are top tier perks that I would almost never run without on him.

[hazy isle]

Is otz the best dbd player?

[tribal idol]

I've never tried out Save the Best for Last. How do I work with that perk, what's the best way to take advantage of it?

[ruby nest]

Tbh I just put it on and dont worry about it

[scarlet garnet]

more of a #game-discussion question

[ruby nest]

If the Obsession wants to take hits while i have max stack STBFL, it does nothing for them since I have Rapid Brutality and still have quite the decreased cooldown on my M1 even after losing stacks. So I'll just chase them down and Hook them pretty quickly tbh.

[pulsar gazelle]

what scörp said but it depends what you base best on, if its comp then a lot of people would say knightlight or xeno

[tribal idol]

That sounds like a really strong combination. How can a survivor even tell that you have the perk in the first place, though?

[pulsar gazelle]

you can tell from hit cd decreasing over time

[ruby nest]

But also when it comes to addons I suggest ALWAYS running Diagnostic Tool Repair, it's his common addon and literally one of his best addons. Lol. Pair it with Ball Glove or Soma's Family Photo and you're good. Req Slip is by far his best addon though. Diagnositc Tool Repair, with Req Slip is pretty much a free game.

[ruby nest]

They'll be able to tell by how fast you recover from hitting them. When you have like 4-6 stacks, survivors who are pretty experienced will notice it right away, but also it's EXTREMELY common for Singu players to run STBFL, Rapid so you can just assume that from the start of the match tbh.

[ruby nest]

Far from it homie, far from it.

[gloomy fractal]

Nothing but misery does it work if you applied deep wound

[ruby nest]

No because to apply Deep wound requires to use a special attack in 99% of situations that I can think of. It has to be a basic M1.

[pulsar gazelle]

E

[ruby nest]

Well yeah if the survivor Dead Hards, then yes that's the 1% of the situations where they would still get affected, but he did ask, "If you apply deep wound" Assuming he means, "If I apply deep wound to a survivor..."

[pulsar gazelle]

true mb

[vast creek]

does off the record still give a protection hit if youre healthy?

[ruby nest]

Because I would also assume he's thinking about playing Legion and running that perk on Legion thinking it would slow people down while in his power. That's just my guess though.

[ruby nest]

As long as you dont heal someone, or touch a gen. Yes if you get injured, than were suppose to go down (Or the killer exposed you at healthy like GF) You'll still have the BT hit.

[vast creek]

ah okay thank you

[ruby nest]

Big part of the reason why OTR is so good. You get BT for 80 seconds if you're getting tunnelled lol

[tribal idol]

How does Weeping Wounds work, exactly? I feel like I've had the red perk symbol on my survivor disappear once they got healed, but isn't the slowdown supposed to get applied after the first time you got healed until you get injured again? Was I imagining things?

[ruby nest]

You are correct. It makes you mangled for 90 seconds after being unhooked, than after you get healed you have 16% reduced healing and gen repair speed until injured again.

[solar galleon]

hey are the castlevania skins temporary?

[tribal idol]

Maybe some sort of display error then, because that really had me confused since the perk icon disappeared from my UI as soon as my character was healthy again.

[ruby nest]

They are not, unless we lose the license some how(Which has happened in the past once that I can recall off the top of my head) They will be in the store permanently.

[ruby nest]

Mmm could be a bug potentially. Would not be surprised. This is DBD after all. What is it, if there is no bugs? LOL

[tribal idol]

There's something else that just came to mind. Playing Larry, if I want to check cameras, do I want to set myself up to bodyblock during that time? Can I get pallet stunned or blinded while I'm doing that?

[ruby nest]

Yes you can get Pallet stunned while doing it. Blinded, I'm not sure? It would be pretty useless for a survivor to do that though in most scenarios. If you're looping at a pallet and using a Cam mid chase, than sometimes you do want to body block the survivor from looping around you and back to the pallet while in cams, but most the times you'll just place the cam down infront of them, TP to them and in Overclock mode you just swing through the pallet to get them to either Pre-drop the pallet or they drop it on you and you break it instantly because of Overclock mode. Even if they Pre-drop, you break pallets in like 1 second in Overclock mode so it doesnt really matter.

[keen badge]

My game is locked to below 60 FPS after updating to the latest NVIDIA drivers, it's straight up unplayable. Anyone know of this and of a fix?

[ruby nest]

Did you ever mess with the Config file years ago to lock your FPS at 50 for the sweaty moonwalking? Or possibly in Nvidia Control panel you turned on V-sync by chance? Or even in Nvidia Geforce experience is it possibly using Auto settings for DBD and capping DBD by chance or forcing V-sync on?

[keen badge]

I am installing the latest drivers, will check on vsync after that

[misty tendon]

Is there a way to add cross hairs for killers with projectiles?

[ruby nest]

Because is it locked at 60FPS and below, or is it just playing at below 60 FPS always?

[keen badge]

starts out at 60 if i'm lucky and goes down to 40-44

[ruby nest]

A lot of people use Crosshair X on Steam for that tbh.

[misty tendon]

Oh I've never heard of that. Where do I look for it in Steam?

[misty tendon]

Thanks so much I'll have a look

[ruby nest]

It's completely fine to use. A lot of people use it when playing Huntress and stuff.

[flint kindle]

Last I heard someone said DBD didn’t care about you using 3rd Party Crosshairs but I have no idea

[pulsar gazelle]

reshade is free but needa a but of setup

[tribal idol]

So who is this actually useful for? Anyone with a projectile? Even weird arcing ones like Unknown and Springtrap? What about Trickster?

[misty tendon]

I was thinking for Huntress, but if we're not sure if it's bannable or not, I'll probably skip it and just practice more lol

[flint kindle]

Crosshairs help you know where the hell you’re actually hitting
Anything that requires aim would be easier with a crosshair

[misty tendon]

I make most my hits so far, but would be nice for an edge on the ones that hit the sides of walls just bees peepee off

[pulsar gazelle]

its probably not, same stance they have with reshade in general

[gloomy fractal]

What if you apply deep wound with m1?

[pulsar gazelle]

• a lot of ppl do use em

[ruby nest]

Trickster/Huntress get the biggest benefits out of having a crosshair tbh.

[misty tendon]

Ohh, I found a DBD specific reshade tutorial. If someone else is interested https://youtu.be/uP1nqXCcnQo

[limpid hornet]

can we get bp conpensation for someone dcing while the match is loading

[ruby nest]

It does not work because I assume you're thinking about Legion. If you hit someone with your M1 as Legion WHILE in power, it is considered a special attack, hence why Devour Hope or a survivor being exposed by any means will NEVER go down to a Legion M1 who is in Frenzy, unless it's the 5th hit while Legion is in power. Lol

[tribal idol]

Is using Reshade still a good idea if my PC isn't particularly powerful? I have most of my settings on medium and the game both looks and runs fine, but it could be better.

[gloomy fractal]

No I'm thinking about scenario when you use basic attack and survivor don't get down because of endurance

[limpid hornet]

isnt reshade cheating?

[tepid sequoia]

Why do people still need reshade now that we have gamma settings?

[flint kindle]

There is still a vast difference in visibility between Max Gamma and Reshade

[limpid hornet]

from what ive seen from clips with reshade you can see the killer from across the map

[gloomy fractal]

Not really. Reshade won't make game look good. If you after making the game look more brighter then just use your monitor settings

[tepid sequoia]

Aight

[boreal pecan]

is it meant to take like 5+ mins to find a game or am i tripping

[ruby nest]

Well thats because they have BT, they literally CANT go down no matter what with BT.

[tepid sequoia]

It do be like that when 2v8 is on

[misty tendon]

What kind of game?

[flint kindle]

Killre or Survivor and which Gamemode
Most people rn are playing 2v8
and there's a Surplus of Killers on 2v8 so Killer queue is especially slow

[gloomy fractal]

Yes but will they get hindered. Because perk descr says just "damage"

[limpid hornet]

zawg what? normal games take 5+ 2v8 takes 30+

[boreal pecan]

alright bc both killer and survivor matches are taking like 5-10 mins

[misty tendon]

My 2v8 killer is about 15 mins, survivor is instant

[tepid sequoia]

That's what I meant, even regular queue times get bigger with 2v8

[misty tendon]

Haven't done 1v4 since it started though, so not sure about the timing on that one right now

[flint kindle]

If someone is suffering from a Deep Wound they can not use Endurance period afaik

[flint kindle]

Yeah that's the usual
Play while you wait is an amazing thing for when you're waiting in Killer queues

[misty tendon]

I hope they keep it for the normal mode too

[flint kindle]

Usually 1v4 Killer times aren't long enough to warrant PWYW afaik
But yeah would be neat especially so you can easily alternate between Killer and Survivor games quickly

[uncut vigil]

because the gamma setting cannot fine-tune every single pixel

[wraith yoke]

It’s whitelisted. So people who use it won’t get banned.

[gloomy fractal]

My question regarding the hex: nothing but misery. It applies hindered to survivors you have damaged. Does applying deep wound counts as damage?

[pulsar gazelle]

^^ i would just use gamma if i started playing now probably i mostly use shaders for brighter maps anyways as those hurt me eyes

[ruby nest]

If you M1 them with a basic M1 and they have BT, yes they will get hindered still. It's all based on the M1. If the M1 is considered a special attack, no. If it's a basic M1, whether they have BT or whatever, they will get affected by the hinder.

[wraith yoke]

Honestly I think gamma settings are enough to make the game look better.

[pulsar gazelle]

they pretty much are yea after the gamma buffs

[ruby nest]

Nvidia Filters does wonders if you want to make your game brighter, but also look better. You can make the colors look more vibrant without it looking super saturated.

[flint kindle]

I doubt it

[upper crag]

is it just me or can i not put blood points into any other killer when i’m ready??

[flint kindle]

what

[ruby nest]

You should be able to unless there's some bug that exists right now.

[upper crag]

i’m ready as whesker but i can’t put blood points into any one else it just switches back to whesker

[ruby nest]

If it's auto forcing you back to Wesker when you try spend BP on some other killer, I would safely assume it's a bug then.

[upper crag]

yeah it won’t even let me look at loadouts either :( damn that sucks

[misty tendon]

Do you have to use the rest of the settings if you just want to use the crosshair?

[ruby nest]

Tbh I'm not sure. I dont use it, I just know A LOT of people use it.

[upbeat saddle]

why cant i use 3/4 of all killers in 2v8??

[strange acorn]

When you’re matchmaking with a killer you can’t look at the loadout or blood web of your other killers

[strange acorn]

Because they haven’t been added to the gamemode

[upbeat saddle]

will they get added or never?

[misty tendon]

Ahhh fair enough

[strange acorn]

Maybe in future years but we don’t know for sure

[flint kindle]

If BHVR can figure out how to balance them to 2v8 they will likely eventually add them
Licensed Killers are a bit more iffy cause Licensing is Licensing

[misty tendon]

I got Crosshair V2 to test

Though it looks annoying for now so I'll probably end up going without it anyway 🤣

[cerulean nova]

are there any killers that dont have bugs?

[hazy jasper]

guys i got 3000 auric cells which survivors do i buy i got kate adam feng and lara and vitorrio

[flint kindle]

Do not use Auric Cells on Original Survivors/Survivors you can buy with Iridescent Shards

[tepid sequoia]

Firstly, only buy licenced characters with aurics. Second, wait for the halloween sale if you can

[hazy jasper]

i know which ones do i buy

You literally only listed 1 Licensed survivor
Oh wait that's what you have right now

[hazy jasper]

yeaa

[flint kindle]

Just whoever has perks you think are cool or you like their design
Pretty much every Survivor has like 1-2 perks that are useful there isn't a go-to perk survivor

[hazy jasper]

is nicholas cage good i dont know his name

[flint kindle]

His name is Nicolas Cage
I've seen a decent amount of people use Dramaturgy or Plot Twist
Depends on if you like those perks or not though

[hazy jasper]

i think finesse would pair well with dramaturgy

[tepid sequoia]

Depends what you're looking for. Dramaturgy is gambling, scene partner is a lot of screaming, plot twist is just goofy

[flint kindle]

If you like what Dramaturgy says
You can go for it

How am I supposed to counter lych if he can one shot down me with his sort of birds through obstacles?

[fresh mesa]

Bit of a dumb question but are collabs like junji ito witcher and aot a one and done? Like can they not bring in chapters with characters with their own perks from these collabs?

[dense atlas]

That’s unfortunately something we don’t know, but we do know that the AOT collab is likely fully over

As someone who has never gone against Vecna but just purely reading through his wiki page
I think you can just crouch

[zealous loom]

You can hear when he spawns the skeletons, and under normal circumstances you can crouch under them. HOWEVER:

• If you are on a higher elevation than Vecna, and he casts his skeletons, you won't be able to dodge them by crouching. You'd have to try and move between the projectiles.
• If Vecna is using the Iridescent Book of Vile Darkness add-on, his skeletons are spawned closer to the ground, meaning you cannot crouch-dodge them if you're both on the same elevation.
• If there is a small obstacle between you, Vecna can spawn the skeletons right on top of you, making it nigh-impossible to dodge..

[tired mist]

does no quarter work with snap out of it?

[zealous loom]

No, snapping out of it is a power-related interaction and is not affected by perks.

[tired mist]

i tought it was concidered a healing action did they change it?

[zealous loom]

They changed it to no longer being a healing action in patch 2.4.0, which was in December 2018.

[tired mist]

aw man, hwy do people play doctor then :T

all of his usefull sinergy is gone

[zealous loom]

Well, if all your DBD knowledge is pre-2018, you have missed out on a lot that makes Doctor viable

[tired mist]

no i know how he plays rn but the gen stuff isnt nearly as usefull as the healing stuff

like they did nurf nurses calling because of nurse was it necessary to also remove snap out of it as being a healing action

[raven wave]

there will be more 2v8 quests?

[cerulean nova]

What killer should i buy w auric cells my only cell killer is nemesis

[raven wave]

I heard the dark lord is fun

[flint kindle]

Whatever licensed killer you think has cool gameplay

[cerulean nova]

Like which cell killers have the best perks tho there isnt really anyone i want for the gameplay

[raven wave]

I think older ones like the letherface

[flint kindle]

Depends on the killers you play

[cerulean nova]

his only good perk is bbq tho right? i heard demogorgon and xenomorph are good

[fringe briar]

how does mmr in this game work? I started 2 weeks ago and am rlly bad, my highest prestige is 3 and it was from bp gifts. im going up against squads with p100 p90 and it doesn't make sense.

[flint kindle]

Prestige has absolutely nothing to do with Skill or MMR

[cerulean nova]

i mostly play knight rn but ive played nurse and some nemesis i just need some perks that are good in general i dont really have a main

[fringe briar]

they're rlly good tho, i didn't get a single m1 that whole game

[jolly sphinx]

MMR increases and lowers based on match performance (escaping or dying as survivor, number of kills as killer). It generally caps pretty low so it doesn't take long before getting very good people in your lobbies.

[flint kindle]

Then for whatever reason the game thought you played well enough to be in that lobboy or the survviors had played bad enough to be in your lobby

[fringe briar]

I see

[lean knoll]

does anyone maybe know a fun build to play as survivor

[raven wave]

i dont know, people use bbq on huntress if they have it

[cerulean nova]

dw about it

[flint kindle]

There are like theoretically thousands
Fun is subjective
and there's so many possible survivor builds
Just like fuck about and find out
If you like a specific playstyle you could ask for perks revolving that playstyle

[flint kindle]

The only Leatherface perk I've seen used in BBQ
I don't think I have ever seen a Xenomorph perk recommended
The only Demogorgan perks I've seen used are Surge and Mindbreaker and both very iffy

[cerulean nova]

damn so what is good then 😭 but xenomorph has a perk thats pretty good on m1 killers

[lean knoll]

ah alr
i was just curious if someone knew one to fuck around with

[jolly sphinx]

Nemesis is the licensed killer with the best perks overall, but you already have him so it's a bit harder to suggest. I'd say Onryo has some alright perks, mostly Call of Brine.

[raven wave]

which free survivors are good? the game gave me 7 million bloodpoints so I put Dwight, Meg, Claudette, Nea and Bill on prestige 1, I bought mikaela and put her in prestige 2, was that a good move? I'm going to get Feng next
My prestige 1 killers are trapper and hillbilly, I got spirit because I heard she was fun

[flint kindle]

Nemesis is the only Licensed killer I've seen someone recommend for Perks
I'd really just buy someone who looks cool or has cool gameplay
Original Killers have pretty much all the perks you'd want on most builds

[gritty eagle]

yooo i need a reshade that allows me to have multiple different filters I was looking for a irri filter so i can see scratch marks easily & red stains can I get some recommendations?

[flint kindle]

I wouldn't really bother with going past Prestige 1 until you've Prestiged everyone you have access to once
For Survivors, all of them have at least 1-2 good perks depending on playstyle so I'd either get someone with a cool design or someone who has perks you specifically like the look of

[raven wave]

people said vigil is good with sprint burst but its from a paid character

[visual sonnet]

should I buy iron maiden from legion or nothing but miseryy.. i dont play killer alot but i wanna try

[raven wave]

going for the paid killer is better I think, legion you can get for free. I'm not sure if the perk is good

[flint kindle]

Yea?
Tons of Licensed perks are good
Vigil, Finesse, Hyperfocus, Stakeout, Dramaturgy, Last Stand, etc
Like I said, every Survivor has 1-2 good perks

[jolly sphinx]

Never get perks from unlicensed characters, buying the character itself is cheaper (for 3 perks)

[visual sonnet]

ok thank you guys

[flint kindle]

Assuming this is about Shrine of Secrets
It's like completely a waste of Shards to buy Perks from Original Characters

[raven wave]

I am using sprint burst, adrenalin, we'll make it and deja vu

[flint kindle]

I dont know what Im supposed to do with this information

[tame sparrow]

Hey I got a question, is there a limit to how many totems you can bless? (I made a boon build and when I bless a totem the other turns off)

[tardy barn]

Only one

[reef wigeon]

Which killer would you guys recommend, strong with easy hits.

[tame sparrow]

Oh that's a bummer I got 2 characters for this build...

[jolly sphinx]

When you Bless a totem all Boons are applied to that totem, so multiple Boon perks aren't necessarely a waste

[tardy barn]

Dracula is pretty fun and a solid killer

[flint kindle]

If you bless one Totem, all Boons apply

[tame sparrow]

Yeah but the range is too small that's why I wanted to bless other totems, is there a way to extend the range?

[jolly sphinx]

No, unless you get some friends to have their own Boons and bless other totems

[flint kindle]

What build are you running

[tame sparrow]

Boon: healing, exponential, shadow step, clairvoyant

Spent all my BP to prestige the guy with the boon so I can use it on the girl with 2 boons

Is it possible to refund those stuff or is it another long journey to get another build?

[flint kindle]

I mean if you just put it somewhere there's alot of traffic most of those things are gonna be used prety well
Especially as the game progresses and presumably the gens become closer together

[flint kindle]

No
I mean ideally you prestige everyone anyways
and BP is really easy to get rn with 2v8

[tame sparrow]

It's hard to find totems to begin with and in the 2 games I tried it we weren't in range of it 90% of the time

[tame sparrow]

Oh didn't play this mode, I guess am spamming it to get my BP back although the purple gems will take a month to get back :')

[jagged flare]

Detective Tapp has a perk that helps you find Totems

[tame sparrow]

I'll see if this build gets better as I test it I might go for him but for now it's kinda disappointing...

[flint kindle]

You normally get 100k BP per 2v8 game, 150k if you escape
and there's a crap ton of quests and stuff rn to do for free BP
also don't forget to do Tomes

[tame sparrow]

But shouldn't 2v8 games take longer too?

Just checked tapp and I have a question does the perk that makes a good skill check a great one work with fogwise?

[flint kindle]

Most games feel like the same length as a 1v4 to me
Granted I die alot

[flint kindle]

it works with any Perk that relies on Great Checks
Gen Rush builds pretty much always use Hyperfocus and Stakeout together for that reason

[rare socket]

Hey, ive been playing dbd for a month today and i managed to reach iridiscent IV on killer. Can i ask what are the rewards? I found you can get up to i 2 mil BP but thats for doing both killer and surv to iridiscent I.

[cerulean nova]

really arent any cell killers? what shouldi use my auric cellso n then

[rare socket]

ohhhh, so its 700k now. Okay, tysm

[flint kindle]

For the 3rd time
Someone you think looks cool or has cool gameplay

[tired mist]

any licenced killer cant be bought with cells

[cerulean nova]

but i need perks 💔 😔

[rare socket]

im confused

[tired mist]

wait now im confused

[dense atlas]

can*

[rare socket]

i thought licensed killers can be only bought with cells

[tired mist]

i mean the blue cells whatever they are called

[flint kindle]

If you dont know what perks you need then I doubt you need perks
and you get perks eitehr way since every single characer has perks

[dense atlas]

Iri shards?

[tired mist]

ye that ig

[flint kindle]

Auric Cells are Yellow
Iridescent Shards are Blue/Purple
Bloopoints are Bloopoints

[jolly sphinx]

Pretty much every licensed killer outside of Nemesis has one good-ish perk, one alright perk and one you'll never see used. Check for yourself what they have and choose based on your preferences.

[rare socket]

i just bougt freddy heh

[tired mist]

what makes nemesis diferent

[flint kindle]

He has good perks??

[dense atlas]

No, hysteria is shit

[tired mist]

when do u see people using hysteria

[midnight grotto]

What perks do you look for? Aura? Hex? Gen regression?

[flint kindle]

Eruption and Lethal Pursuer
Why would anyone be referring to Hysteria

[north token]

yes I do i sent a photo of who I have

[cerulean nova]

anything thats generally good honestly

[tired mist]

lethal is the big good one, eruption is the ok one and hsyteria is the shit one

[jolly sphinx]

That he has 2 really good perks

[dense atlas]

I dunno, but yeah, eruption is amazing, lethal is ok only if it’s paired with other aura reading perks

[cerulean nova]

what makes lethal pursuer so good?? is it if u have other good aura perks

[midnight grotto]

And you have every non-licensed killer?

[tired mist]

eruption rl fell from grace, now u kinda have to have other gen kicking perks to make it worth going ur way out of a chase orgetting pressure to kick a gen that might not even come into play

[cerulean nova]

i have clown artist knight and i think thats it

[dense atlas]

Slinger has a really good perk (deadman’s,) so getting him would be worth it for the gen regression, plague also has a really good perk (corrupt,) which is also rather good for gen regression. I mean, you already have the killer with the best perks in the game, so I wouldn’t worry too much (artist)

[cerulean nova]

yeahh but i dont know if i should spend auric cells on things i can get for shards yk

[tired mist]

u could try hag to get some cheaky devour kills
