eruption is so strong it can turn the survivors against each other, i once had a meg sandbag me all game because she thought i was refusing to help her even though it was just me being incapacitated
I had the same thing with a character that wanted healing and kept teabagging and I'm like, I can't do anything lol. She dc'd because she assumed I was just being a dick.
I saw your perk list and I think with the new base kit Unbreakable change, there is more reasons to run Low Profile, since you can be moried if all survivors are downed, makes it harder to get caught if running it. I think it should be a tier higher. Same with Reactive Healing, I love running it after it's bug fix, with a certain build it can be so amazing, totally a time saver. Overall, a very solid list!

You have your own method of motivating me into playing. Thanks for your great videos and your calm explanations.

My buddy getting into this game was ready to give up until I sent him the video you made on looping common tiles and the 16 hour perk video. Just so so so incredibly useful to get a masters impression of how good something is with timestamps. Simply the most comprehensive information on Dead by Daylight anywhere for anyone. Also gave him the video on joining the game. I know the hacker situation is damn frustrating and absolutely no blame if you become a variety streamer or play a new game.

Me when otz doesn’t spend another 4 days 20 hours 35 minutes and 6 seconds on the bottom half of the perks: 🥺🥺🥺 Love the work you put in to the game, you got me into the game and you keep me in it. ❤
My only thing is with some of the perks you got in excellent is that they are great but situational . For instance adrenaline is a great perk but there gonna be a lot of times you can’t even get the gate open especially if you solo q a lot . Deliverance is another situational perk . What if you get hooked first? Or your teammate unhooks you? Or the killer camps the hook? I think perks that are great no matter the situation are the best perks . Kindred is a excellent perk & very underrated . We all appreciate when someone is using that perk on our team . Works in any situation and gives your whole team a lot of information.

Personally, Bond is a top tier perk for me, with more value in Solo player, but still useful in compositions. Some uses: 1. See allies auras 2. If you see an ally running in circles, most probably is that the killer is there, so you know the killer won't come at you. 3. If you are in a chase, you want to take the killer away from your allies repairing, winning time. If during the chase you get close to allies auras, you can run away from there and avoid allies stop what they're doing. 4. If you are repairing and see an ally running and being chased by the killer close to you, you can either hide or move to other side if needed, away form the killer 5. If you see a wounded ally in chase, running towards you, you can take a hit. 6. If you see a wounded ally not in chase, you can go directly towards them and heal them 7. In late game, if you open 99%, and a surv is looping the killer, you can go to take a hit or let him know where to go. You don't waste time 8. In closed maps, seeing the ally in chase in a different floor than you, lets you know that you can keep repairing despite being inside the killer terror radius 9. Help with flash saves. 10. If in Solo player and in last hook situation, and if in chase, you might take the killer towards a non-in last hook ally so the killer changes target. And I'm sure there are more uses for this perk.
42:08 Ever since I first got Jeff, I've loved running Distortion. It makes a fun minigame where you try to discern what perk you're blocking the aura of, plus actually giving you the strength of that aura being blocked
I genuinely believe if it wasn't for people like Otz, and Otz ESPECIALLY making these types of videos to help newer / less aware players become more engrossed and knowledgeable of the game, has been invaluable to BHVR in keep players around. Amazingly astute work as always 👏
DBD is lucky to have such dedicated content creators such as Otz. So much hard work does translate in giving life to the game and the community. Thank you for this incredible effort
There are some perks that I think are super underrated and have a ton of potential in the right build, things like Blood Echo, Blood Favor, Dissolution, Forced Penance, etc. that I wish we saw more. Blood Favor plague is my favorite weird combo, cause a lot of people greed pallets when your trying to fully infect them and only drop once infected and downable, but with Blood Favor they can’t use the pallet and will go down
I can see the utility in every perk but Forced Penance. In general, I find the "Broken" status effect underwhelming (except when all gens are finished and gates are still closed, I love Terminus). That's why I don't see "Broken" really as downside when using Deliverance or For the People. Sure, survivors are one-shot like when being Exposed - but Healthy exposed survivors don't have access to DH.
@@gianglai7346 Forced penance is a pretty good counter to SWFs that like to take protection hits. You stop survivors from running in, taking a hit, then quickly healing in a boon or with a medkit. If they take the hit, they become more exposed as they have to wait out the broken status effect. If they hide, they waste time, but if they do gens, they might be caught out without having healed up since taking the hit. It's by no means a top-tier perk, but it reduces the rate at which survivors can take protection hits and possibly gets you an easier down or two if lucky.
@@gianglai7346 it’s definitely not universally useful but is incredibly powerful in a few specific scenarios on certain killers, namely Twins and Oni. Twins goes from pretty ineffective to insanely lethal if they are injured because victor is so hard to dodge, and Oni greatly benefits from injured survivors for obvious reasons. I mean just simply based off of numbers a survivor inflicted with Forced Penance will drop 40 orbs during the duration at the absolute least, with 50 needed to completely charge your power. If you include interaction drops, add ons, healing time, etc. Forced Penance literally gives you a free activation of your power.
How is blood favor going to work on plague? If you fully infect them, they are broken but that is not like getting hit. So pallet aren't blocked by blood favor. Correct me if I am wrong
@@feelindevilish It is triggered whenever a survivor loses a health state by any means. This includes going from healthy to injured by becoming fully infected.
Pebble/ diversion is a perk that i think is really underrated. I started using it for the memes but if used correctly it can save your life in ways no other perk can. For example in endgame 1v1 you can make the killer think you are at the other gate. 2v1 camp you can make the killer think you are coming from the other direction and get the save.
One of my first Nemesis games I was running Eruption alone, and that perk *by itself* turned a land-slide loss into a 4k at 1 gen with the constant pressure it put on the 3 gen. Absolutely insane perk.
So many of these perks are a lot better with other perk synergies. I think you need another more complicated list that talks about synergies. Like alone NOED is probably B tier, but with No Way Out, then I think it becomes an A-tier perk. Nurse's is probably B tier, but when you bring sloppy as well I think Nurse's becomes A tier.
Everyone says these vids are great for beginners, but even this helps still with experienced players, especially the new Project W perks!! I have just over 500 hours and I love watching your perk review vids, because I always learn something new about a perk, but also just because they're so fun to watch and listen to; almost like a DBD documentary haha! Thank you for all the work you put into your videos :)
I know it's not an insanely good perk but the amount of entertainment value I get out of Parental Guidance has made it my favorite survivor perk by a long shot. The fact that it triggers off of ANY stun is what makes this perk one that hasn't left my builds since it came out. It triggers off of DS (granted not as good as before but still nice) pallet stuns (very nice with Smash Hit), Head On, even some of the weirder "counts as a stun" interactions like Blast Mine & flashlight saves (Not blinds but saves) and snapping free from Slinger's chain.
BRO BRO SAME I SWEAR BRO I LOVE COMBOING PARENTAL I didn't really use ds much pre nerf but now that I fell in love with parental guidance I started using it alot and it's funny seeing the killer having to look around to see where I ran
Honestly, I absolutely love longer videos from Otz. While I absolutely love the weekly compilation and everything else, I'm always extra excited if the video is over an hour.
one thing about shadowborn is increasing FOV can make the game playable for some people, as the default FOV is so low it can cause issues with certain monitors, eye strain, etc. I don't have any problems personally, but it's certainly something to consider when talking about it
I think they should condense perks that do the same thing or similar things. That way more perks are easily recognizable and many of the less used perks can have more noticable effects.
Every time I see one of these videos, a scene comes up to my mind. The scene is from the first John Wick movie, when the mob boss describes him as a man of focus, sheer will. Ty Otz
hey Otz, first off great video. very informative and direct-to the point. second i started playing this game 3 weeks ago and with all your advice (survivor and Killer) i have hit Iridescent 2 with killer and iredescent 4 solo. this may not sound like a big deal but to me it was, Thanks Otz!
I actually think the most underrated item is the triple charge med - kit, which can go up to nine heals with built to last and a few great skill checks. I don`t know why people are not running it, but the few times I dared myself use it was extremely busted even without built to last.
I said this on stream and I'll say it again: It doesn't really make sense that autodidact is so low. Sure it's a situational perk, but when it actually works it's super, super nice. Especially against sloppy/other types of slow healing builds
I agree with you. And dont forget it also works great with killers who love to slug, if you get skillcheck its much quicker than We are gonna live forever. Im truly shocked that autodidact at the bottom of list. It is situational but the same for me as DH, deliverance, unbreakable, reassurance, sprint burst (I cant use DH and Sprint).
Only reason why autodidact is placed low is due to its token condition and the low odds of skill checks popping. And it's only good once you have it at tier 3 with all 5 token stacks to make it potent and powerful. It's one of those skills that actually gains true value ONCE the game drags longer
@@BL4zKinGX Yes thats true. Skillchecks are very random on this perk I think. Sometimes you get first 3 with one healing, and sometimes you get the first skillcheck in endgame when it could be killing
I think windows of opportunity should be place in the exceent category because you can also see pallettes being dropped and getting broken from the killer. For example if your doin a gen in raccoon city on the second floor and you see a pallette being dropped below you then you dont need to worry about where the killer is.
@@abdyorozco4092 but alert only reveals the type of killer and its aura when the killer destroys something meanwhile woo show you all available pallettes and windows
I'm slowly getting the hang on killer, I'm still a newbie tho. Glad to see this video so I can make up my mind on what I could use to suite my playstyle more. And same goes for survivor, even if I play survivor regularly, some stuff was eye opening. Thanks Otz, you're just an amazing player and content creator. Please stay healthy and have a great day 💕
I think Deja vu is a very underrated perk and deserves to coincide with Kindred because knowing what gens are left ensures you don't 3 gen yourself and it also lays out the killers potential pathings for gen patrols. Veteran players may not need it but taking 5 less seconds looking for a gen and playing around patrols adds up immeasurably.
Prove Thyself pairs quite well with Situational Awareness, I found. SA reveals to your teammates the aura of the generator you are working on within a 32 or so meter range, so it allows them to come up to the gen you are working on so that you can get value out of Prove Thyself. It really helped me knock out gens quickly and caused teammates to approach a gen they never would have otherwise.
@@Roc_Official Agreed, this advice is definitely more geared towards solo q players. I always play solo, so I found this to be the best way to get solo q tm8s to coordinate on a gen with me. Sometimes, it can help build team synergy so much that you might appear like a SWF to the killer!
I find that I get shot in the foot more than anything else with this perk. I’ll have survivors in chase run at me and get us both screwed so I run bond instead so I can choose when I want to group.
@@abdyorozco4092 It depends. If it's a survivor on death hook, injured, and being chased, I don't mind them leading the killer to the gens so that they don't get killed and make the team a lot weaker. If you're a sensible survivor not on death hook, especially if you're not from lower/beginner MMR, you will try to actively draw the killer away from the highlighted generator, or at least that's the idea. If that doesn't work, then that's unfortunate. But to counter this, I also run bond alongside Prove Thyself and Situational Awareness. It usually tells me if the survivor is being chased, so I know to get a headstart away from the gen.
Really sad how much calm spirit has fallen from being a mediocre perk to a downright trash perk thanks to the "buff". as a calm spirit main who has 1k hours of game play with the perk, its pretty ok when you get value against all things that make you scream as well as stealth at high level play. But the totem cleansing really makes this perk a hindrance to run. they downright made a perk no one runs even more unappealing which saddens me. I definitely hope it gets buffed in the future since calm spirit is incredibly underrated in my opinion
Otz is the one to make this game better, BHVR should watch this, see what the awful perks are and work on making them good rather than destroying the currently good perks. Pain Resonance I feel is good but not busted while being healthy for the game. It only gets value if killers keep hooking and winning chase. It promotes more chase, rewards chase, and is a negative to camping.
hey Otz! have you ever considered teaching people how to play killer and giving them live tips on their playstyle? You are so good in explaining everything from add-ons to perks, that Im convinced you would be great in doing that too. Keep up the great content and thank you for providing guides that helped me hit Iridescent rank 1! :)
He's done this already, just search "otz coach" into youtube, and you'll probably find it! More specifically, he coached Anna_Chess on how to play survivor, and SquillaKilla on how to play killer. I believe he did a bunch of streams with each of them, but I didn't watch most of them, so I'm not sure how many there were in total. Its out there though 😊
I think Deerstalker is going to be more useful here pretty soon. Or maybe just Nurse's Calling will get a slight buff. Especially paired with Lethal. Probably just Nurse's tbh
Hey Otz, just wanted to say that I appreciate everything you do for this community even when the game isn't in the best state, im relatively new to this game and have been binge watching your videos for days, you're an absolute delight to watch, hopefully I catch you on a stream in the near future
Wow talk about perfect timing. I was about to start playing dead by daylight again, as I haven’t played since just before artist released, but I’ve been procrastinating getting back into it because I wasn’t keeping up with any changes. God bless otz Ope, god bless nototz*
Otz I can’t decribe how glad I am you not only make videos like these but also look at the game from many points of view. I am at best an average survivor. 120hrs played. Can’t loop for shit. So for me lithe and windows of opportunity are MUST HAVE perks to be able to run even for a couple seconds. I tried deadhard, but holy shit do I still die hard. So thank you for the summary and to looking out for the average solo Q survivors, which is arguably majority of the playerbase.
I'm hesitant to believe Blast Mine is better then Flashbang, but its not my tier list and maybe I'm wrong about that? Who knows. Thanks for your effort and time, Mr. Otz.
Low Profile might be extremely useful with the Mori update. If killers sweat for the 4 down, Low Profile will make you extremely hard to find by removing scratch marks, blood and grunts of pain. If every Survivor runs it, the new win condition will be hard to achieve.
Don't think anyone's done a comment on this so I'll do one just in case: *Additions may add up incorrectly but should still be accurate. Here are all killer perks ranked in no. stars added together across all teachables (if that makes sense). Hope this helps you guys decide what killers to shoot for. Trapper- 8 Wraith- ??? + 2 Hillbilly- 9 Nurse- 7 Myers (shape)- 7 Hag- 10 Doctor- 8 Huntress- 4 Bubba (Cannibal)- 9 Freddy (Nightmare)- 6 Pig- 7 Clown- 9 Spirit- 9 Legion- 8 Plague- 10 Deathslinger- 9 Pyramid head (Executioner)- 6 Blight- 11 Twins- 6 Trickster- 12 Nemesis- 11 Pinhead (Cenobite)- 11 Artist- 11 Sadako (Onryo)- 12 Dredge- 7 Wesker (Mastermind)- 8 To sum it all up (top 3): 1st- Trickster + Onryo 2nd- Cenobite + Blight + Artist + Nemesis 3rd- Plague + Hag Edit: let me know if you guys want a list for survivor. Here's the list for survivors: Dwight- 12 Meg- 13 Claudette- 10 Jake- 7 Nea- 10 Laurie- 8 Ace- 8 Bill- 11 Feng- 9 David- 10 Quentin- 9 Tapp- 9 Kate- 8 Adam- 7 Jeff- 10 Jane- 7 Ash- 6 Yui- 9 Zarina- 10 Cheryl- 7 Felix- 9 Elodie- 6 Yun-jin- 7 Jill- 7 Leon- 6 Mikaela- 11 Jonah- 8 Yoichi- 8 Haddie- 7 Ada- 7 Rebecca- 11 1st- Meg 2nd- Dwight 3rd- Bill + Mikaela + Rebecca
Thank you for your amazing content. You're the reason I've gotten back into DBD, and this video has come at the PERFECT time for me to get a better idea of what perks to lean into. Thank you a ton!
I already watched this video for all the survivor perks. Now that I am (slightly) decent at survivor I am rewatching it to learn the killer perks so I can hopefully recognize more of them in game. Lots of love to you Otz for the time and dedication you put in these videos
Brine Deadlock eruption and the 4th is a flex. Pain res, bamboozle, no way out, play thing. But the main 3 have literally turned around countless matches where I’ve made multiple mistakes and had no business getting a 3k
I would honestly put WoO conditionally into 5 star, that condition being solo players. I feel like the biggest problem that solo players face is the lack of information on used resources throughout a match.
Thank you so much otz, you don’t know how much your videos have made me love dbd even more. Without you, I would not be playing this game still. I appreciate all your hard work and dedication❤

Personally, Bond is a top tier perk for me, with more value in Solo player, but still useful in compositions.
Some uses:
1. See allies auras
2. If you see an ally running in circles, most probably is that the killer is there, so you know the killer won't come at you.
3. If you are in a chase, you want to take the killer away from your allies repairing, winning time. If during the chase you get close to allies auras, you can run away from there and avoid allies stop what they're doing.
4. If you are repairing and see an ally running and being chased by the killer close to you, you can either hide or move to other side if needed, away form the killer
5. If you see a wounded ally in chase, running towards you, you can take a hit.
6. If you see a wounded ally not in chase, you can go directly towards them and heal them
7. In late game, if you open 99%, and a surv is looping the killer, you can go to take a hit or let him know where to go. You don't waste time
8. In closed maps, seeing the ally in chase in a different floor than you, lets you know that you can keep repairing despite being inside the killer terror radius
9. Help with flash saves.
10. If in Solo player and in last hook situation, and if in chase, you might take the killer towards a non-in last hook ally so the killer changes target.
And I'm sure there are more uses for this perk.
As a new players and 99% of time solo queue - agreed, it's no doubt 1 of the best perks for solo queue survivors
I think empathy is better, you can tell when I survivor gets hit which tells you where the killer is and the range is almost the whole map
Thank you Otz for helping out the community and new players
42:08 Ever since I first got Jeff, I've loved running Distortion.
It makes a fun minigame where you try to discern what perk you're blocking the aura of, plus actually giving you the strength of that aura being blocked
As a fairly new player, thank you for allll these guides you do.
Otz is the only RUclipsr where when he doesn't do an over 10 hour video, I feel empty inside.
I genuinely believe if it wasn't for people like Otz, and Otz ESPECIALLY making these types of videos to help newer / less aware players become more engrossed and knowledgeable of the game, has been invaluable to BHVR in keep players around.
Amazingly astute work as always 👏
DBD is lucky to have such dedicated content creators such as Otz. So much hard work does translate in giving life to the game and the community. Thank you for this incredible effort
La paciencia de este tio para hacer una nueva tierlist de TODO cada vez que algo cambia en el juego, damn otz u good man
There are some perks that I think are super underrated and have a ton of potential in the right build, things like Blood Echo, Blood Favor, Dissolution, Forced Penance, etc. that I wish we saw more. Blood Favor plague is my favorite weird combo, cause a lot of people greed pallets when your trying to fully infect them and only drop once infected and downable, but with Blood Favor they can’t use the pallet and will go down
I can see the utility in every perk but Forced Penance. In general, I find the "Broken" status effect underwhelming (except when all gens are finished and gates are still closed, I love Terminus). That's why I don't see "Broken" really as downside when using Deliverance or For the People.
Sure, survivors are one-shot like when being Exposed - but Healthy exposed survivors don't have access to DH.
@@gianglai7346 Forced penance is a pretty good counter to SWFs that like to take protection hits. You stop survivors from running in, taking a hit, then quickly healing in a boon or with a medkit. If they take the hit, they become more exposed as they have to wait out the broken status effect. If they hide, they waste time, but if they do gens, they might be caught out without having healed up since taking the hit.
It's by no means a top-tier perk, but it reduces the rate at which survivors can take protection hits and possibly gets you an easier down or two if lucky.
@@gianglai7346 it’s definitely not universally useful but is incredibly powerful in a few specific scenarios on certain killers, namely Twins and Oni. Twins goes from pretty ineffective to insanely lethal if they are injured because victor is so hard to dodge, and Oni greatly benefits from injured survivors for obvious reasons. I mean just simply based off of numbers a survivor inflicted with Forced Penance will drop 40 orbs during the duration at the absolute least, with 50 needed to completely charge your power. If you include interaction drops, add ons, healing time, etc. Forced Penance literally gives you a free activation of your power.
How is blood favor going to work on plague? If you fully infect them, they are broken but that is not like getting hit. So pallet aren't blocked by blood favor. Correct me if I am wrong
@@feelindevilish It is triggered whenever a survivor loses a health state by any means. This includes going from healthy to injured by becoming fully infected.
Pebble/ diversion is a perk that i think is really underrated. I started using it for the memes but if used correctly it can save your life in ways no other perk can.
For example in endgame 1v1 you can make the killer think you are at the other gate. 2v1 camp you can make the killer think you are coming from the other direction and get the save.
Finally, another video to study. Thanks Otz
Ötzi still putting out these 10/10 videos even after DBD tries its best to make him miserable. I appreciate the hustle my man.
One of my first Nemesis games I was running Eruption alone, and that perk *by itself* turned a land-slide loss into a 4k at 1 gen with the constant pressure it put on the 3 gen. Absolutely insane perk.
So many of these perks are a lot better with other perk synergies. I think you need another more complicated list that talks about synergies. Like alone NOED is probably B tier, but with No Way Out, then I think it becomes an A-tier perk. Nurse's is probably B tier, but when you bring sloppy as well I think Nurse's becomes A tier.
Everyone says these vids are great for beginners, but even this helps still with experienced players, especially the new Project W perks!! I have just over 500 hours and I love watching your perk review vids, because I always learn something new about a perk, but also just because they're so fun to watch and listen to; almost like a DBD documentary haha! Thank you for all the work you put into your videos :)
Don't click that y'all ^
@@drinkik i still don’t understand how bots can post links in yt comments but we can’t LOL
I know it's not an insanely good perk but the amount of entertainment value I get out of Parental Guidance has made it my favorite survivor perk by a long shot. The fact that it triggers off of ANY stun is what makes this perk one that hasn't left my builds since it came out. It triggers off of DS (granted not as good as before but still nice) pallet stuns (very nice with Smash Hit), Head On, even some of the weirder "counts as a stun" interactions like Blast Mine & flashlight saves (Not blinds but saves) and snapping free from Slinger's chain.
100% its amazing to use with head on.

@Fiqih Wanita I dont know what i was expecting but it wasnt that
BRO
BRO SAME I SWEAR BRO I LOVE COMBOING PARENTAL
I didn't really use ds much pre nerf but now that I fell in love with parental guidance I started using it alot and it's funny seeing the killer having to look around to see where I ran
Honestly, I absolutely love longer videos from Otz. While I absolutely love the weekly compilation and everything else, I'm always extra excited if the video is over an hour.
one thing about shadowborn is increasing FOV can make the game playable for some people, as the default FOV is so low it can cause issues with certain monitors, eye strain, etc. I don't have any problems personally, but it's certainly something to consider when talking about it
I think they should condense perks that do the same thing or similar things. That way more perks are easily recognizable and many of the less used perks can have more noticable effects.
Every time I see one of these videos, a scene comes up to my mind. The scene is from the first John Wick movie, when the mob boss describes him as a man of focus, sheer will. Ty Otz
hey Otz, first off great video. very informative and direct-to the point. second i started playing this game 3 weeks ago and with all your advice (survivor and Killer) i have hit Iridescent 2 with killer and iredescent 4 solo. this may not sound like a big deal but to me it was, Thanks Otz!
I actually think the most underrated item is the triple charge med - kit, which can go up to nine heals with built to last and a few great skill checks. I don`t know why people are not running it, but the few times I dared myself use it was extremely busted even without built to last.
Scrolling RUclips at 3:39am sees new upload from 4 minutes ago, jolly good show
An updated version of this video would be epic! You are the best.
Otz im starting to get worried. Why is this under an hour?
Oops. 😂😂😂😂
I love using Pop and Brutal Strength on Sprit tbh, quite fun :D.
I said this on stream and I'll say it again: It doesn't really make sense that autodidact is so low. Sure it's a situational perk, but when it actually works it's super, super nice. Especially against sloppy/other types of slow healing builds
I agree with you. And dont forget it also works great with killers who love to slug, if you get skillcheck its much quicker than We are gonna live forever. Im truly shocked that autodidact at the bottom of list. It is situational but the same for me as DH, deliverance, unbreakable, reassurance, sprint burst (I cant use DH and Sprint).
Only reason why autodidact is placed low is due to its token condition and the low odds of skill checks popping. And it's only good once you have it at tier 3 with all 5 token stacks to make it potent and powerful. It's one of those skills that actually gains true value ONCE the game drags longer
@@BL4zKinGX Yes thats true. Skillchecks are very random on this perk I think. Sometimes you get first 3 with one healing, and sometimes you get the first skillcheck in endgame when it could be killing
Was really excited for the insane hour count on the next list but considering I haven't finished the 16 hour one it's for the best
I think windows of opportunity should be place in the exceent category because you can also see pallettes being dropped and getting broken from the killer. For example if your doin a gen in raccoon city on the second floor and you see a pallette being dropped below you then you dont need to worry about where the killer is.
I mean alert does the same thing but in more scenarios so I think it’s even with it.
@@abdyorozco4092 but alert only reveals the type of killer and its aura when the killer destroys something meanwhile woo show you all available pallettes and windows
I'm slowly getting the hang on killer, I'm still a newbie tho. Glad to see this video so I can make up my mind on what I could use to suite my playstyle more.
And same goes for survivor, even if I play survivor regularly, some stuff was eye opening. Thanks Otz, you're just an amazing player and content creator.
Please stay healthy and have a great day 💕
I'm once again playing the game, it will be easier to come back with this guide. Thank you otz for keeping the community alive.
Despite all the issues, this amazing man made yet another hour video for us, you're a legend, Otz! :)
I think Deja vu is a very underrated perk and deserves to coincide with Kindred because knowing what gens are left ensures you don't 3 gen yourself and it also lays out the killers potential pathings for gen patrols.
Veteran players may not need it but taking 5 less seconds looking for a gen and playing around patrols adds up immeasurably.
Prove Thyself pairs quite well with Situational Awareness, I found. SA reveals to your teammates the aura of the generator you are working on within a 32 or so meter range, so it allows them to come up to the gen you are working on so that you can get value out of Prove Thyself. It really helped me knock out gens quickly and caused teammates to approach a gen they never would have otherwise.
This is true. This specific strategy is really effective in solo Q. If you are with a squad, you can just call it out without needing the perk.
@@Roc_Official Agreed, this advice is definitely more geared towards solo q players. I always play solo, so I found this to be the best way to get solo q tm8s to coordinate on a gen with me. Sometimes, it can help build team synergy so much that you might appear like a SWF to the killer!
@@AlaReDuS Absolutely! It’s for sure effective.
I find that I get shot in the foot more than anything else with this perk. I’ll have survivors in chase run at me and get us both screwed so I run bond instead so I can choose when I want to group.
@@abdyorozco4092 It depends. If it's a survivor on death hook, injured, and being chased, I don't mind them leading the killer to the gens so that they don't get killed and make the team a lot weaker. If you're a sensible survivor not on death hook, especially if you're not from lower/beginner MMR, you will try to actively draw the killer away from the highlighted generator, or at least that's the idea. If that doesn't work, then that's unfortunate.
But to counter this, I also run bond alongside Prove Thyself and Situational Awareness. It usually tells me if the survivor is being chased, so I know to get a headstart away from the gen.
Really sad how much calm spirit has fallen from being a mediocre perk to a downright trash perk thanks to the "buff". as a calm spirit main who has 1k hours of game play with the perk, its pretty ok when you get value against all things that make you scream as well as stealth at high level play. But the totem cleansing really makes this perk a hindrance to run. they downright made a perk no one runs even more unappealing which saddens me. I definitely hope it gets buffed in the future since calm spirit is incredibly underrated in my opinion
I would say youre the most valuable member of the DBD community, but even that would be a understatement, keep going man!
Otz is the one to make this game better, BHVR should watch this, see what the awful perks are and work on making them good rather than destroying the currently good perks.
Pain Resonance I feel is good but not busted while being healthy for the game. It only gets value if killers keep hooking and winning chase. It promotes more chase, rewards chase, and is a negative to camping.
hey Otz! have you ever considered teaching people how to play killer and giving them live tips on their playstyle? You are so good in explaining everything from add-ons to perks, that Im convinced you would be great in doing that too.
Keep up the great content and thank you for providing guides that helped me hit Iridescent rank 1! :)
He's done this already, just search "otz coach" into youtube, and you'll probably find it! More specifically, he coached Anna_Chess on how to play survivor, and SquillaKilla on how to play killer. I believe he did a bunch of streams with each of them, but I didn't watch most of them, so I'm not sure how many there were in total. Its out there though 😊
@@AkaEbone I wasnt aware of this! Will definitely check it out, thanks a bunch!
Honestly, Otz's voice is soothing, I'd listen to it nonstop while doing some gaming to get my knowledge in and to hear his voice
Started really getting into DBD a couple days ago. THANK YOU 🙏
I think Deerstalker is going to be more useful here pretty soon. Or maybe just Nurse's Calling will get a slight buff. Especially paired with Lethal. Probably just Nurse's tbh
Hey Otz, just wanted to say that I appreciate everything you do for this community even when the game isn't in the best state, im relatively new to this game and have been binge watching your videos for days, you're an absolute delight to watch, hopefully I catch you on a stream in the near future
He’s just so fair with all the ranking I love it
I aspire to find something I'm as passionate about as Otz is towards this game. The attention to detail is palpable.
Under an hour tier list video? Call me impressed. Awesome job
I'm such a big Hope fan now, it's saved my butt multiple times since I've started using it, not to mention the value from juking killers in endgame
Wow talk about perfect timing. I was about to start playing dead by daylight again, as I haven’t played since just before artist released, but I’ve been procrastinating getting back into it because I wasn’t keeping up with any changes. God bless otz
Ope, god bless nototz*
Unpopular opinion, I think Spies from Above is a criminally underrated perk. Feels like I have a constant radar when I run that perk
Idk how this man has spoken for 16 hours for a video and isn’t sick of it. Insane work rate.
Where my good old 18 hour videos? No honestly great work and thank you for the effort you put into it Otz❤
Got my popcorn now I'm ready for this banger
Otz I can’t decribe how glad I am you not only make videos like these but also look at the game from many points of view. I am at best an average survivor. 120hrs played. Can’t loop for shit. So for me lithe and windows of opportunity are MUST HAVE perks to be able to run even for a couple seconds. I tried deadhard, but holy shit do I still die hard. So thank you for the summary and to looking out for the average solo Q survivors, which is arguably majority of the playerbase.
I'm hesitant to believe Blast Mine is better then Flashbang, but its not my tier list and maybe I'm wrong about that? Who knows. Thanks for your effort and time, Mr. Otz.
Otz I'm wholly convinced that you decide the meta.
Low Profile might be extremely useful with the Mori update. If killers sweat for the 4 down, Low Profile will make you extremely hard to find by removing scratch marks, blood and grunts of pain. If every Survivor runs it, the new win condition will be hard to achieve.
Don't think anyone's done a comment on this so I'll do one just in case:
*Additions may add up incorrectly but should still be accurate.
Here are all killer perks ranked in no. stars added together across all teachables (if that makes sense). Hope this helps you guys decide what killers to shoot for.

would love a survivor one :D
This is great for me cause I'm new to the game
“No Mither… it’s no mither” well said lol
I have been watching you since 2019. You are a legend
Thank you for your amazing content. You're the reason I've gotten back into DBD, and this video has come at the PERFECT time for me to get a better idea of what perks to lean into. Thank you a ton!
I love these tier list video's from you Otz!
Amazing dedication, appreciate the work.
personally i'd love to see you do a video on lesser-used perks with surprising helpfulness!
Otz is a hero. "I am beginning to hate streaming DBD" - *literally makes tons of content*
he said that he’d rather focus on guides and analysis stuff rather than actually playing the game on stream, but i def think he’s a hero :)
I already watched this video for all the survivor perks. Now that I am (slightly) decent at survivor I am rewatching it to learn the killer perks so I can hopefully recognize more of them in game. Lots of love to you Otz for the time and dedication you put in these videos
Otz u did light born dirty, can't even imagine how many times that perk saved me
Brine Deadlock eruption and the 4th is a flex. Pain res, bamboozle, no way out, play thing. But the main 3 have literally turned around countless matches where I’ve made multiple mistakes and had no business getting a 3k
Thanks so much otz!!! Been playing for years but always learn some new perk or technique from your channel. Gr8 videos, Keep sending it.
Very nice video otz, keep them up! 😁
I would honestly put WoO conditionally into 5 star, that condition being solo players. I feel like the biggest problem that solo players face is the lack of information on used resources throughout a match.
that little "ah shit, here we go again" at the very start of the video had me dying
love this video keep it up man
Scott Jund would like to have word with you for putting Prove Thyself in the 5 star spot.
I dont even play the game anymore but Otz just keeps me glued to my screen with his top tier content. Great work !
Thank you so much otz, you don’t know how much your videos have made me love dbd even more. Without you, I would not be playing this game still. I appreciate all your hard work and dedication❤
Otz: Today im gonna talk about perks ať both sides.
Me:stoped to make a screenshot and then hit play again.
Otz:feel free to screenshot.
:D
Great video to watch on my school lunch break, quick and to the point, do more short explanation videos Otz! Great work!
I don't even play DBD, but you make such a good content i just can't stop watching it, thank you!
Thank you so much Otz! I took a 1 year break from Dbd and the meta is not the same as before 👀 this video is what I needed 🖒
something about Otz being stuck in a paradox making the same exact video every time a major update drops is extremely entertaining to me
thanks otz im download a game and eating. u came in clutch wit da vid!
