Ranking the Most Unique Addons Least to Most Fun (Dead by Daylight)

Hey everyone, today I wanted to review and rank some of the most unique addons of DbD. The way I’m classifying these addons is that they are addons that generally nerf you, however as a broader way of identifying them, they unlock a new ability of some kind that your character wouldn’t otherwise have and is not present elsewhere in the game also. I won’t be including meme addons in here, as we already ranked those. Let’s get into it.

  1. The banner is actually great purely because the amount of times a cocky survivor has t-bagged me at the gate just to be blocked and get downed is weirdly common

  2. Rotten Pumpkin for Demogorgon is also an addon that I think deserves to be here.
    Destroying your own portals sounds awful, but in reality it basically makes your portals an Onryo teleport that doesn't deactivate TVs, which is huge for map pressure, and IMO substantially changes how you play Demogorgon.
    As for fun, my opinion is that it is extremely fun, no matter what you are doing, if you decide you need to go somewhere else, you just place a portal down and leave, not having to worry about having a wasted portal for the rest of the match.

  3. I completely disagree with the lopro add on, if you are a solid billy you can use it to some extreme potential and do a lot of crazy plays with it. You can pull off a blight bounce with it as an example

  4. For the doctor one, run it with the add on that makes the shock just one long ass line. The circle can cover a wider area while the line goes straight through the middle of it and gets distance. Probably the only way these addons can be viable.

  5. As a Nemesis player, Depleted Ink Ribbon isn't an addon you should be using for the exit gatw respawns, use it for the speed buff and respawn reduction. Something I'd say is more fit for its spot is the Shattered STARS Badge, that one's effect comes into play more often than the zombie exit gate spawn, and it actually WORKS. Zombies inside exit gates wont bother to move 90% of the time until the survivor has long passed it

  6. Combining Spasmodic Breath with Nurse’s purple addon that makes you undetectable on a blink hit is some of the most fun you can have in this game, at least in my opinion!

  7. I just love how Michael's add-ons fit him perfectly, like the tombstone piece. However, I like using both fragrant tuft and Judith tombstone for what I call the "Pure Evil Myers" build. As for perks, it's Play With Your Food, Enduring, No Way Out, and Discordance.

  8. I quite like the Caffeine Pills on the Legion. Trading speed for duration makes their power arguably worse since it's meant to stab as many survivors across the map as possible, but when you combine it with other add ons it can become a fun utility power once the survivors stop healing each other.

  9. There is this one Blight addon that gives you a difficult skillcheck, if he is rushing nearby. I was chilling in a corner and repairing a generator with a teammate when we suddenly got skillchecks…and we didn't pay any attention and we both failed
    And then he downed me, and literally it turned the match around, since he had hooked survivor and high progressed gen nearby
    But at least 1 person managed to escape, so it was not that embarrassing

  10. There’s something you missed that makes the tombstone even worse. Michaels hand will be open in tier 3 when using the add on, instead of it being in a fist. So you can visually see if someone has the add on.
