In the realm of Dead by Daylight (DbD), a multiplayer horror game, players take on the roles of either Survivors or a Killer. Survivors must work together to repair five generators scattered across the map, powering the exit gates and escaping the Killer’s clutches. To achieve this objective as efficiently as possible, players often employ “gen rush” strategies and builds to minimize the time spent on repairs.
A “gen rush” build typically consists of perks and items that enhance generator repair speed, coordination among Survivors, and stealth capabilities. Perks such as “Prove Thyself,” “Fast Track,” and “Streetwise” directly increase repair speed, while “Bond” and “Empathy” allow Survivors to locate each other and damaged generators more easily. Items like toolboxes and flashlights can further accelerate repairs and provide momentary distractions for the Killer.
