Dead By Daylight - The 10 Best Killer Perks
In the dark universe of Dead by Daylight, every killer's dream is to effectively hunt down and destroy their victims. One of the ways to do this is by choosing the right perks (abilities) for your character. But which ones are the best? In this article, we will introduce the top ten killer perks.

1. Barbecue & Chilli

Any experienced player will tell you that Barbecue & Chilli is one of the most powerful perks. This special ability of The Cannibal allows the killer to see the aura of survivors within a radius of at least 40 meters for five seconds after hooking a survivor. This allows you to quickly locate the next victim.

2. Discordance

Discordance is another useful perk that helps to reveal the location of survivors. Any generator being worked on by two or more survivors is highlighted and triggers a loud notification. Even if a survivor leaves the area, their aura remains visible for four seconds.

3. Lethal Pursuer

Lethal Pursuer is a unique ability of Nemesis from Resident Evil and gives you a good start in the game. At the beginning of each match, this perk reveals the auras of all survivors for seven to nine seconds.

4. Save the Best For Last

Sometimes, it's a good strategy to focus on a specific target. With the Save the Best For Last perk, a random survivor becomes the killer's obsession, and each successful attack on another survivor grants you a token (up to eight tokens), increasing your attack speed.

5. Jolt

With Jolt, you are rewarded for putting a survivor into the dying state. All generators within a 32-meter radius of you immediately explode and regress, significantly delaying your opponents' progress.

6. Pop Goes the Weasel

Pop Goes the Weasel is a special perk of the Clown and offers a clever way to disrupt your opponents' progress by destroying their generators!

7. Deadlock

Another useful perk is Deadlock from the Cenobite, which prevents survivors from reaching their objectives as quickly as possible.

8. No Way Out

With No Way Out, as the Trickster, you gain additional power from hanging survivors - the more you hang, the stronger you become!

9. Corrupt Intervention

With Corrupt Intervention, the Plague has gained an ability that triggers right at the beginning of the match and helps you quickly locate your opponents.

10. Scourge Hook: Pain Resonance

Last but not least, we have Scourge Hook: Pain Resonance from the Artist - this perk inflicts additional damage on survivors and can make their lives difficult.

Whether you are new to Dead by Daylight or an experienced player, these perks can help you eliminate your opponents more effectively!
