5. Stealthy & Invulnerable

Proving That Gen Rushing Is Broken - Dead by Daylight

This build consists of Dead Hard, Resilience, Prove Thyself, and Iron Will. While Dead Hard is a perk unique to David King, Resilience is a common perk; Prove Thyself is unique to Dwight Fairfield, and Iron Will belongs to Jake Park.

Then, you will need to get them from the bloodweb for the survivor you want to play as. If you unlocked many teachable perks, you might struggle to find these specific perks as it is totally random for them to appear. So, this means that the less teachable perks you've unlocked, the easier you will get the ones you want.

Its teachable version can be found at level 40 and onwards in her bloodweb. You have to pay real money for this character to get both the survivor and her three unique perks instantly.

Or you can purchase all perks from the Shrine of Secrets with in-game currency. But you will have to be patient and lucky to get the ones you want. Because the perks appear randomly, and there are only four perks every week; two killer and two survivor perks.
