How to Counter Vecna in DBD – Explained FAST! [Dead by Daylight Guide]

Hi! In this 2-minute DBD guide, I go over how to play against Vecna; the newest killer added in Dead by Daylight’s Dungeons & Dragons Chapter (8.0.0 Update)!

“The Lich” is a unique killer, with 4 spells that are completely different from each other.

His spells are mostly chase-oriented, but as long as you pick up Magic Items and know how to counter each of his spells, you shouldn’t have a hard time against Vecna 🙂

NOTE:
To clear up potential confusion on Magic Items, there are 4 types of magic items, that can either spawn as gauntlets or boots. You can only pick up 1 gauntlet AND 1 boot (not 2 gauntlets or 2 boots). You also CAN’T pick up duplicate items (like a nightwatch gauntlet AND boot). This means the best combo would be having a gauntlet and boot version of nightwatch and interloper!

Make sure to check out my pinned comment below for some extra tips against Vecna!

  1. Here are some other tips worth mentioning against Vecna 🙂
    – When dodging Flight of the Damned, the ONLY time you CAN'T crouch is if Vecna has the "Book of Vile Darkness" iridescent add-on (which you can tell if there are only 2 skulls instead of 5), so in this case, you can only dodge inbetween the skulls
    – You can see a purple timer on the survivor HUD for all the survivors hit by the Dispelling Sphere, which can give you a good idea of where the ball is located (as long as you know where the survivors are!)
    – You can see all the magic items each survivor has equipped on the survivor HUD, which is a great way to tell it's Vecna at the start of the trial!

    I hope these help, and if you have any more tips comment them below!

  2. Sharp, my brother in Christ, flight of the damned is NOT his strongest spell 😭, also seeing that mage spell is about to be used you definitely shouldn’t drop the pallet because by the time it’s picked up vecnas cooldown will be over and it will be a free hit

  3. 1:04 so this is actually stronger for Vecna. So far in my games, if I know a survivor is going to or has to drop a pallet, I can preemptively cast Mage Hand on it so that it's lifted as soon as it's dropped, letting me go through the pallet and make distance because dropping the pallet causes you to stop moving, but Vecna lifting it does not.

  4. Btw the pallet pickup is not useless at all, if a vecna picks up a pallet the second you put it down he can immediately catch up and hit you. Other than that good explanation. But yea mage hand is incredibly strong.
