In the realm of Dead by Daylight, where survival is a deadly dance and every move carries weight, the choices we make can be the difference between victory and defeat.
Behaviour have tested the limits of the survivor's capabilities by introducing a killer with an actual gun. And while he is already pretty strong on his own or with his own unique perks, we have created the ideal loadout to show his fully terrifying potential.
Perk Loadout
No Way Out
Once the exit gates have been powered No Way Out activates and any survivor that interacts with an exit gate switch will trigger a loud noise that will notify the killer and the gates will be blocked off for 12 seconds per stack. Stacks are gained from hooking survivors.
No Way Out acts as a countermeasure against survivors who prioritize quick gate escapes. The Deathslinger can nullify their advantage and make escaping more challenging, turning the playing field in his favour.
Save the Best for Last
Save the Best for Last is the Shape's unique perk and it plays around the obsession. Whenever the killer hits a survivor that is not the obsession, they gain 1 token, capping at 8. Every token gives you a 5% cooldown reduction, hitting the obsessions decreases the token number by 4/3/2 based on the level of the perk. Sacrificing the obsession deactivates the perk.
The perk takes advantage of the obsession mechanic, creating a dynamic and intriguing gameplay element that is bound to succeed due to the Deathslinger's gun not counting as a basic attack so he rarely loses tokens.
Jolt
When the killer puts a survivor into the dying state with a basic attack, all generators within 32 metres of the killer instantly explode and start regressing.
The ability grants the Deathslinger an immediate and powerful form of map control. By instantly regressing generators within a certain range, he can disrupt survivor progress and force survivors to rethink their objectives, creating tension and urgency.
Corrupt Intervention
If the player has Corrupt Intervention the 3 Generators located farthest from the killer are blocked for 120 seconds right at the start of the trial.
By temporarily isolating generators that are farther away, the Deathslinger gains a chance to focus his efforts on a smaller portion of the map, potentially leading to more intense chases and higher pressure.
Add-ons
The ideal add-ons for the Ghostface are Bayshore's Cigar (Killer stun duration decreased) and Warden's Keys (Reload time decreased).
