Question 1

What is the best survivor build in Dead by Daylight?

Accepted Answer

The best survivor build depends on your playstyle and whether you play solo or with a squad. Strong all-purpose survivor builds include information perks (Kindred, Windows of Opportunity) combined with safety perks (Off the Record, Borrowed Time).

Question 2

What survivor perks are best for solo queue in DBD?

Accepted Answer

For solo queue, prioritize information perks that compensate for no voice communication: Kindred (shows killer and teammate auras near hook), Situational Awareness (shows healing teammates), Windows of Opportunity (shows vault/drop locations), and Prove Thyself (bonus gen speed with teammates).

Question 3

What is a gen-rush build in DBD?

Accepted Answer

A gen-rush survivor build maximizes generator repair speed. Common perks include Prove Thyself (+bonus repair speed with allies), Hyperfocus + Stake Out (great skill check combo), and Deja Vu (boosts speed on three closest gens). These are most effective in coordinated groups.
