Why it works
Quick & Quiet hides your locker hops, Deception fakes where you went, and Head On stuns the killer from a locker. Flashbang lets you make a bright grenade after working on gens. You have stuns, blinds and lies everywhere.
How to play
Lure the killer to a locker, slip inside unseen and stun them as they pass. Use the flashlight for save plays. It does not always work, but when it does it is great fun.
How this score is made
Score 62/100 = rules 71 − 9 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 | 21 / 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 | -9 | 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. |
