How this score is made
Score 50/100 = rules 54 − 4 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 | 4 / 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 | -4 | 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. |
