Strongest perk build with only base game perks?

[Ajax Drinker]

To clarify, I'm asking what the strongest perk build for both killer and survivor would be if you could only use perks you can get in the base game. No perks from DLC killers or survivors.

Feel free to list the killer for killer specific builds.

[Andy]

Depends on which killer you want to play.

[Chase131119]

Self care, Balanced Landing(or sprint burst/dead hard, depends on your preference), Borrowed Time, Bond.

[Potato]

Survivor: Hope, We'll Make It, Resilience, Lightweight/Premonition or Spine Chill (Could also be replaced by Dark Sense, Deja Vu and Small Game)

Killer: Bitter Murmur, Sloppy Butcher, Whispers, NOED (Could also be replaced by Deerstalker for slugging, Distressing for Doctor or others)

You mean the super base game perks or can it include free character teachables?

Only asking to see answers, not for tutorials. You can list the killer with the perks, if you want.

Character teachables are allowed for non-DLC characters.

Oh ok, well, the previous one was only using the base perks, now I will post some builds using free teachables.

[Andy]

I guess for general use then it would be something like Sloppy butcher, NOED, Nurses calling, Enduring.

[Hunubul]

There are many strong builds for survivors, and as said, depends on which killer. Also does Bill count as base game character? And the other free guys?

For survivor, I really love Premonition and Small Game, depends on if you want to find hexes or know where killer is. Self Care is meta. Nea perks Urban Evasion and Balanced Landing is pretty great, tho Balanced Landing is situational. Quick & Quiet, Sprint Burst and Adrenaline also great. Iron Will, Borrowed Time, Unbreakable also great. Kindred can be great especially in SWF. I love Lightweight as well.

EDIT: Making this a list
Premonition, Small Game, Lightweight, Iron Will, Borrowed Time, Unbreakable, Adrenaline, Sprint Burst, Quick & Quiet, Balanced Landing, Urban Evasion, Self Care.

These aren't really working together, so chosing the best ones out of these useful perks depend on the situation as well as your playstyle.

EDIT2: I would do Premonition, Urban Evasion, Self Care and Sprint Burst/Balanced Landing

[Ruse]

Self-care, adrenaline, sprintburst, literally anything else.


Enduring, NOED, nurse's calling, sloppy butcher/whispers.

What wasn't base game in the perks I listed? I can read perfectly well, I think you just need to get a brain check. #nohate

"only use perks you can get in the base game. No perks from DLC killers or survivors."

Self care (Claudette perk), Balanced Landing (Nea perk), sprint burst (Meg perk), dead hard (David perk), Borrowed Time (Bill perk), Bond. (Dwight perk)..

NO SURVIVOR PERKS #NOHATE

These are not DLC survivors, these are base game survivors, OP said that you can use base game survivor and killer teachables.

[Mad Doctor's Cat]

David King is still base game, right? Then I'd go with, for survivor:
- We're gonna live forever (for them bloodpoints y'all)
- Self Care (for them heals y'all)
- Sprint Burst (for them escapes y'all)
- Iron Will (for that stealth y'all)

But I could definitely replace WGLF or Sprint Burst with Plunderer's Instinct to get nice loots to use in-game.

And for killer, it depends on which one, but for any decent free killer bar the Nurse, I don't think you can go wrong with these perks:
- Enduring
- Brutal Strength
- Nurse's Calling
- Sloppy Butcher

Or NOED if you really want an end-game perk, although the idea is to keep constant pressure on the survivors as as much as possible with a build like this. You'll probably snowball into a win if you can get some early hooks.

[Potato]

Let's try this again.

Survivor build #1 (mostly for looping):
-Self Care
-Adrenaline
-Sprint Burst/Dead Hard
-Borrowed Time/Urban Evasion/Iron Will (Could also be replaced with Bond, Empathy, Hope or We'll Make It)

Survivor build #2 (for doing gens and stealth):
-Self Care
-Urban Evasion
-Iron Will
-Leader/Bond/Empathy (Could also be replaced with Dead Hard or Sprint Burst in case you get caught)

Survivor build #3 (healing build):
-Self Care
-Botany Knowledge
-We'll Make It
-Empathy



If we are only talking about base game perks, I assume we are only going to play base game killers as well.

Trapper build:
-Enduring
-Nurse's Calling
-Brutal Strength
-NOED (Could also be replaced with Deerstalker or Thanatophobia)

Wraith build:
-Enduring
-Whispers
-Brutal Strength
-NOED

Hillbilly build:
-Enduring
-Tinkerer/Bitter Murmur
-Nurse's Calling
-Sloppy Butcher (Could also be replaced with NOED for a big surprise)

Nurse build:
-Nurse's Calling
-Whispers
-Sloppy Butcher
-NOED (Could also be replaced with Deerstalker)

Huntress build:
-Nurse's Calling
-Sloppy Butcher
-Bitter Murmur
-Enduring (Could also be replaced with Deerstalker or Whispers)
