Why it works
Blight moves fast with his power, so he does not need speed perks, only gen pressure. Pain Resonance and Grim Embrace slow gens when you hook. Pop Goes the Weasel adds more after the hook.
How to play
Rush to the survivors you saw with Lethal Pursuer, end chases fast with a rush and kick a gen after the hook for Pop.
How this score is made
Score 89/100 = rules 84 + 5 from NightLight community stats. The rules part is calculated by this site from the perk descriptions; only the community part comes from real match results.
| Part | Points | What it measures |
|---|---|---|
| Synergy | 34 / 50 | Known strong perk pairs (13 each) and purposes shared by 2+ perks (4 each), max 50. |
| Balance | 50 / 50 | Basic needs: killers want gen slowdown (−20 without) and info (−10 without); survivors want a chase or second-chance perk (−20 without) and something for the team (−10 without). −10 per empty slot. |
| Conflicts | 0 | Penalties: the same perk twice (licensed copy, −15), two Exhaustion perks (−15), 2+ hexes without Undying or Thrill of the Hunt (−6). |
| Community stats | +5 | NightLight: how often these perks win compared with the average perk of their role, corrected for small samples (−10 to +10). Only when stats are imported. |
