This perk enables a weird (and hilarious) strategy | Dead by Daylight

Just a quick video showcasing one of my favorite “strats” in Dead by Daylight. If done successfully, it can make the Dredge’s early game really strong, but it’s actually quite hard to pull off lately! In-game audio is a bit quiet for the first match, please don’t mind it.

  1. I play a similar way with dredge but instead of darkness revealed, I'd use whatever other perk I want and the brown add on that shows locked lockers, I've gotten a number of grabs by seeing a group of lockers and 1 by 1 they get locked u just travel to the last one and BAM, it's very funny, but very inconsistent

  2. Maybe also combine lethal with darkness revealed. You dont have to wait at the start and everytime you use darkness revealed you have longer aura reading

  3. Undying and devour are incredibly powerful totems on dredge. The build I personally use also includes Save The Best For Last as a backup plan for if your totems go down and barbecue and chili because does it can help you immediately find someone to Chase and get away from your devour victim. You can also pair those two hex totems With Thrill of the hunt and haunted grounds to take up all five totems on the map and make cleansing any of them super damn slow. Dredge Works uniquely well with hex totems in general and after the update where ruin was nerfed into the ground he is definitely the most common killer to see running them. Yeah Otz your assertion that Devour Is good one Dredge is VERY correct.

    If you'd rather a gen defense based build running overcharged with Call Of brine can make generators nearly impossible to complete it's not as strong as it was pre- Nerf but if all three of the gens are near lockers it dredges capability to check all of them in a matter of seconds makes him a bit oppressive in that regard Plus you can also run that a long time to lethality perks like devour and undying for instance or something like save the best for last. overall I'd say dredge is a stupid strong killer if you know how to play them properly and they're definitely my favorite killer as a newer player.

  4. Otz, imo corrupt makes it a lot harder to catch survivors at the start since it is better and more common for survivors to lock lockers around the gen they are going to be working on instead of justice wasting it

  5. lethal pursuer could be a good choice for a fourth perk as well, it would help out darkness revealed and might just last long enough to get a grab right when you get your power.

  6. I literally do this with Iron Maiden, Monstrous Shrine, and Agitation for a basement Dredge build that has no right to work, yet is somehow semi consistent. Tip for this: Since teleportation speed has no impact on whether the survivor is grabbed or not(They just have to start locking after the moment you initiate and it treats you as there for all intents and purposes.) pair the Ottomarion writing with the Worrystone, it's hilarious.

  7. I've managed to do this once or twice, but my favorite addon combo is now Boat Keys+Lav Mic. Boat Keys makes Daytime TPing feel so much smoother and Lav Mic is a free BBQ with WAYYYYY too many applications. You NEVER have to have zero idea where anyone's at. If you want, you can slug a guy and just ping pong around 3 lockers super fast to find another target (BONUS if you use Lethal Pursuer to get even more time to see them), and sometimes not even all 3 lockers if you see a locker door open. The fakeout opening also desensitizes survivors to the sound of you popping into a locker (and for some players, even you popping OUT of one, but the Dredge himself makes a growl when exiting a locker so the cues are different), making your arrival less reactable.

  8. i’ve been doing this strat , it’s a bunch of fun. sometimes i’d catch myself sitting in nearby lockers near gens and waiting inside for them to lock

  9. Otz, I had a dream last night. I was watching your stream and me and you both loaded up as killer in a map that is not in the game [to specify, me and you loaded up into the same match, both as killer]. I was playing as spirit and you were playing as trapper. In the dream, I was afk for whatever reason and you were carrying me, and you let two survivors stay alive and you waited for something to happen. I came back to the match and killed those two survivors and you and chat started screaming at me, telling that I'm an idiot and that I threw the game.
