He can injure survivors in locations where other killers can&#8217;t by using his Redeem, such as windows.<\/p>\n<p>As such, there are many different ways you can play this killer. Here are just a few of the top Deathslinger builds that you can try.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"mcetoc_1gst6jbp8h\">Beginner Deathslinger Build<\/h2>\n<p>If you are just getting started as a new Deathslinger main, it might be hard to decide which perks to use. The Deathslinger can use his power to close in on survivors and land hits where other killers cannot, but he is a slow killer, meaning that he can use the help of perks for slowdown.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Jolt<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Gearhead <\/strong>(The Deathslinger)<\/li>\n<li><strong>Hex: No One Escapes Death <\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Whispers<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>All of the perks included in this build are general perks, meaning they either come by default with The Deathslinger or can be found in the Bloodweb of all killers without prestiging or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ginx.tv\/en\/dead-by-daylight\/how-many-bloodpoints-to-level-50\">reaching level 50<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Whispers is a great perk for almost all beginner killers since it helps you find survivors if you don&#8217;t have a sense of the game yet. Jolt provides generator slowdown, while Gearhead helps you track survivors on generators and ensures you know where to go before generators are completed. Hex: No One Escapes death helps you earn some easier kills at the end of the game.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"mcetoc_1gst6jbp8i\">Generator Control Deathslinger Build<\/h2>\n<p>The Deathslinger is at his best when he is able to keep generators regressing constantly, but it can be hard when he is such a slow killer. Thankfully, there are perks that can help him take control of generators and ensure that they are regressing throughout the match.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Corrupt Intervention <\/strong>(The Plague)<\/li>\n<li><strong>No Way Out <\/strong>(The Trickster)<\/li>\n<li><strong>Dead Man&#8217;s Switch <\/strong>(The Deathslinger)<\/li>\n<li><strong>Scourge Hook: Pain Resonance <\/strong>(The Artist)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"rsp-embed-container\" contenteditable=\"false\">\n<div style=\"left: 0; width: 100%; height: 0; position: relative; padding-bottom: 56.5%;\"><iframe style=\"border: 0; top: 0; left: 0; width: 100%; height: 100%; position: absolute;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/FAqA5k9C9wQ?feature=oembed\" scrolling=\"no\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" srcdoc=\"&lt;style&gt;*{padding:0;margin:0;overflow:hidden}html,body{height:100%}img,span{position:absolute;width:100%;top:0;bottom:0;margin:auto}span{height:1.5em;text-align:center;font:48px\/1.5 sans-serif;color:white;text-shadow:0 0 0.5em black}&lt;\/style&gt;&lt;a href=https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/FAqA5k9C9wQ?autoplay=1&gt;&lt;img src=https:\/\/img.youtube.com\/vi\/FAqA5k9C9wQ\/hqdefault.jpg alt='YouTube video thumbnail'&gt;&lt;span&gt;&#9654;&lt;\/span&gt;&lt;\/a&gt;\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Corrupt Intervention provides slowdown at the beginning of the match, ensuring generators are not completed before you can find your footing in the trial. Scourge Hook: Pain Resonance provides constant generator regression as long as you can get hooks regularly. Dead Man&#8217;s Switch provides even more generator regression. No Way Out ensures that even if some survivors make it to the end of the game, they will have a hard time making it out of the Exit Gates.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"mcetoc_1gst6jbp8j\">What Are The Best Perks For Deathslinger?<\/h2>\n<p>We&#8217;ve given you some builds to test out on The Deathslinger, but you might wonder what the best perks are on him.<\/p>\n<p>A few of the best perks on The Deathslinger in Dead by Daylight are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>I&#8217;m All Ears <\/strong>(The Ghost Face)<\/li>\n<li><strong>Hex: Ruin <\/strong>(The Hag)<\/li>\n<li><strong>Whispers<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Jolt<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Bitter Murmur<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Pop Goes The Weasel <\/strong>(The Clown)<\/li>\n<li><strong>Scourge Hook: Pain Resonance<\/strong> (The Artist)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>We recommend mixing and matching the perks in the builds we&#8217;ve provided to create your favorite loadout.
