Doctor is simple and fun

I guess Nemesis and Dredge could be fun for you. Nemesis has some similar ideas behind him about punishing looping and bringing some friends to the game and Dredge can bring the map control game on most locations at a whole new level.

Also what Cheerows says. Doc is almost too funny.

Wraith is fun and his skill set is basic enough to learn. He's a killer that has a good map traversal while cloaked and his invisibility makes him hard to read so survivors second guess a lot.
Dredge is the one killer that makes you feel like you're scary, from the way he plays to the skills he has wraith feels fun.

Would recommend trying doctor. If you haven't already, would finish prestiging legion as discordance fits on every killer as a teachable.

I would say that Wraith and Pinhead are pretty straight forward with their powers and not as complex as others. You dont need to break your head to do some tech like with blight or calculate where the survi gonna go like with nurse or Huntress so i find them pretty friendly, and fun cause HE CAME.

I'd stick to Legion who is very fun to play. Also, as was said, Discordance is a really useful perk. The Plague is also very easy, and sort of fun. I play both Trapper and The Pig a lot as well. Both are relatively simple to learn and have a fair amount to offer. Also, all of these killers has at least 1-2 Perks that are useful for all Killers.

Wraith teaches you the chase basics pretty good. Doctor helps with tracking. I would say those two are kind of new player friendly.

I'd say Wraith.

If you are confident in your aiming skills and like to throw things i'd say Huntress or Trickster.

Trapper is a noob trap (pun intended) as needs proper strategy and very good map knowledge to catch-up for his weak early-game and snowball during the last 2 gens/endgame.

I suggest Blight or Spirit, they aren't super easy but you can get used to them and if you get very good at them you can win against SWF even.

But yeah don't play this game, it starts fun but you'll learn it isn't fun.

I checked those out and iirc they both had a difficulty of 'very hard', are those accurate?

No, never trust the difficulty rating the devs give, I mean they don't even play their own game. I suggest you look up youtube videos on how to play either charecter, since that's much better then going in blind.

Most youtubers are very helpful with how the killers should be played and suggestions for perks to help you out.

I highly suggest looking at this for builds
https://mrtipson.github.io/otz-builds/

Otzdarva is a very good DbD player and his recommended builds are helpful when trying to new killers but don't take it as gospel, experiment, with blight I use a build like Lethal, BBQ, Pop and Deadlock since No Way out requires you to hook people and if you get unlucky no way out might be as good as not being there so Deadlock gives more help by stalling a gen pop by atleast 30 seconds.

But don't worry to much, especially if you try sprit, she's much easier to play and understand, blight is a bit harder due to getting used to his rushes mechanic but you understand how it works then you become very scary.

Wraith and Bubba are pretty good for beginers

Wraith. Not very complicated mechanically making tghem easy to pick up and play.
Quite versatile but rather addon dependant.
Not super strong but also not terribly weak.
