Dead By Daylight: All Survivors, Ranked
Each of Dead by Daylight's survivors has unique traits that can give them an edge against killers, but some are better than others.
most of the best die by daylight Perks must be unlocked by that Survivor unless they appear in the Secret Sanctuary. However, there are free perks known as regular perks that appear in your character's blood web as part of the base game. Their usefulness varies, but there are definitely a few that will grab players' attention.
8 small game
Additions needed for totem builds
- Look in the direction of the totem in a 45° cone within 8/10/12 meters and you will receive an audible warning.
- Small Game has a cooldown of 14/12/10 seconds whenever activated.
- For each Dull Totem or Hex Totem that a player cleanses, one token is automatically granted to the small game.
- Each token reduces the angle of the detection cone by 5°, down to a minimum of 20°.
The Totem build is ideal for those who want to cleanse the people the Killer has killed, or for those who want to lend a helping hand to fellow players. Even experienced players can forget many of the totems that may spawn on the map and may need help tracking them down.
Crossover character Jill Valentine has one perk to help with this, but those who aren't willing to pay real money for the DLC can always use the regular perk Small Game. Equipped with this, you can follow the audio signal to track your blessings or cleansing benefits.
7 dark sense
Chase the killer through obstacles
Whenever a generator completes, Dark Sense is activated.
- The killer's aura is revealed to you for 5/7/10 seconds when they come within 24 yards of your location.
Knowing the killer's exact location can help survivors avoid or effectively track the killer. There are perks belonging to paid characters like Ada Wong that can help with this, but there are also regular perks that players can equip to gain aura reading abilities specifically for killers.

Dead by Daylight: Aura Reading Perks Survivors Need to Know
Survivors must pay attention to these dangerous aura reading perks if they want to succeed in Dead by Daylight.
After completing the Generator, if the Killer comes within 24 meters of that location, Survivors will see an aura for up to 10 seconds, allowing them to run or hide depending on their play style.
6 This doesn't happen
Increase your chances of making a great skill check
- While injured, the success area of Great Skill checks while repairing and healing is increased by 10/20/30%.
Good skill checks are essential to repairing generators more efficiently, but inexperienced players may have trouble hitting reliably, and even veteran players will have off days. For those who are less confident in their landing skills, there are perks that provide a boost.
This is Not Happening makes the area for larger skill checks larger, making it much easier to attack. The only downside is that players must be injured to receive this benefit, but it would be perfect paired with other perks like Resilience.
5 hope
Your chances of escape increase.
When power is applied to the exit gate, hope activate:
- Grants a permanent 5/6/7% Haste status effect.
The game moves really quickly once you're ready to open the exit gate. The survivors can almost taste freedom, and the murderers can almost taste the blood of their last victim. Both sides will work harder to win.
To increase their chances of escape, survivors can equip Hope, one of the most underrated perks in the game. The tasks you perform are simple, but if all the generators are completed, provide haste to the equipped people, or if the survivor is the last one standing and the killer closes the hatch, he fulfills his promise. This greatly improves your chances of escaping the trail alive.
4 no one is left behind
A final push to save everyone
- Increases healing and unhook speed by 30/40/50%.
- Survivors released from the hook have their Haste status effect increased by 7%.
- Other survivors' auras are revealed.
- Grants 50/75/100% bonus bloodpoints for actions in the Altruism category.
When the endgame collapses, it becomes the final push for both survivors and killers. The survivors can try to escape with their lives and those of their teammates intact, and now it's time for the killers to make their final sacrifice.
Those who feel particularly brave and selfless can double their efforts with perks like No One Left Behind, which can help them save at the last minute. They can now unhook and heal faster, giving them more time to outrun the killer, and earning more Bloodpoints for their efforts.
3 resilience
Getting injured now benefits the Survivor
- While wounded, the action speed of Repair, Heal, Sabotage, Unhook, Leap, Purify, Bless, Open, and Unlock increases by 3/6/9%.
In general, being injured doesn't do the player any good, as it makes them speak louder, creates a pool of blood for the killer to follow, and brings them one step closer to poisoning. Players should generally try to recover as quickly as possible to get another health boost, but Resilience offers another way.

Players benefit by getting injured. You now get a bonus to everything other than movement speed, which increases your chances of survival and makes you a more useful teammate overall.
2 kindred
Aura reading perks perfect for solo play
Each time a survivor is poisoned, kindred Activate and apply the following effects:
- The Killer's Aura is revealed to all Survivors whenever the Killer comes within 8/12/16 yards of the hook.
- If you are a Hooked Survivor, all Survivors' auras are revealed to each other.
- Unless you are a Hooked Survivor, all other Survivors' auras are visible only to you.
In solo play, this puts the survivors at a huge disadvantage, as they cannot use voice chat to coordinate their efforts and share important information such as the killer's location. However, there are perks that can help alleviate this, such as kinship.
Kindred opens up the possibility of aura reading for survivors, especially those who are addicted. Survivors can now see if the killer is camping, proxy camping, or has left the area, allowing them to escape safely.
1 we will make it
Clutch Healing Bonus
After rescuing another survivor, We'll Make It becomes active.
- Increases your selfless healing rate by 100% for 30/60/90 seconds.
Healing is one of the most useful actions a Survivor can take in the game. They can heal themselves using certain perks or medical kits, or they can heal others for free. Healing others without any extras can be a slow and arduous process, and is prone to interference from the killer.
Fortunately, there are ways for players to offset slow healing by using perks like med kits or We'll Make It. Survivors simply need to untie another link to benefit from the increased healing rate. This is actually quite a bit of speed, doubling for up to 90 seconds, so you could potentially use this perk on multiple Survivors at the same time.
