*SLIGHTLY UPDATED VERSION* : i.imgur.com/yZimdhM.jpg

I once realized that I had 50 RPD and the Game offerings on my Dredge, and decided to consume them all in one session of build testing. By the tenth West Wing RPD I felt like I was ritualistically flaying myself alive, really got me into the character of playing a formless mass of darkness, pain, and suffering.

I remember the old lighting offerings that could make the Trial darker or brighter. Man, they were cursed. 😂

Otz sounded shocked when he realized he was done explaining and it took less than 6 hours

Note about the BP offerings: the 25% bonus to every category is actually the next best offering after the bloody party streamers and escape cakes and other 100%+ offerings. That’s because they cost the same as the other yellow / green offerings but can give you as many as 10k additional BP if you max out (which is not very easy given the new BP cap but still). Also for killers, the only way to get max BP thanks to the higher cap is to hook them in the endgame to get the late hook bonus or to mori people on death hook (which I think gives you 300 more points than hooking them).

Hey not otz, we have discovered a lack of 10 hours videos, like, come on, surely you can sit, analyse and talk for hours upon hours with no problems, yes?

Otz didn't address the fact that the Bloody Party Streamers up the chances of the Killer tunneling you all out in 2 mins or the Sacrificial Ward guaranteeing that none of the Survivors brought a map offering

I keep forgetting mist offerings are a thing until not Otz reminds me and then I eventually forget again.

Ya know, with the mist offerings, i always thought it was the other way around for Stealth Killers. Characters like Michael, Ghostface, Pig, Wraith. Being able to put a nice, large chunk of doubt into a survivors mind as to if they saw you or not because of the mist across the map, leading to great sneak attacks for killers...but damn, watching that side by side comparison you put up of killer sight vs survivor sight...yea that is just horrible for the killer. Thank you for alerting people like me to how detrimental even to said stealth killers this can be

Another thing with the green and ebony moris, if you have a team that bodyblocks hooks and such, killing the survivor on the ground can be nice and can get rid of the risk of them wiggling out due to bodyblocks!

The majority of these offerings are a product of their time. It would be really interesting if they were changed to have more of an impact in the modern game.

What do you mean the White Ward has no effect on the match? It's known to greatly increase the chances that the killer is running Franklin's Demise

What do you think of map offerings working in reverse instead, so instead of greatly increasing the chance to go to a map, you greatly decrease the chance to go to these maps? I feel like it would decrease the annoyance of being sent to specific maps from either side that are stronger

I stopped playing DBD like 4 months ago but I still watch Otz because he's so enjoyable and amazing at explaining things

i disagree about the party streamers having no impact. bringing one or two with a friend might increase the odds of someone who would normally dc to stay if they also have a bp offering

I know they have draw backs, but I'll never understand how the hatch offerings have (atleast for the 4.5-5 years I've played) remained common. In the modern game, depending on the gate split, they can heavily decide whether the last survivor lives or dies. And then back before the hatch/key rework they where almost guaranteed to allow multiple escapes. It's just weird that that amount of sway is considered to be on the same tier as the lower end fog offerings.

I disagree completely with the "No Impact" on the "save add-ons" and "save item" offerings. their uses cause psychological warfare. When you see the "save add-ons" as survivor you know it's some infinite myers, some busted nurse/blight or some iri-huntress or iri-doctor. When you see the "save item" as killer you know it's some busted tool-box / medkit

I once accidentally countered a four stack by using the shroud of separation on a whim playing as doctor because they were planning on playing a wacky sort of meme build to run circles around me and then because they didn't know where they were on the map because they've never been there before, two of the survivors were wandering around aimlessly trying to find a single generator. I completely cleaned their clocks, ended that level with a short cat and mouse game with the last survivor who was jumping from locker to locker. Trying to stay out of sight so they could finish the last generator. I don't know the name of the map but it was built like a maze with a lot of narrow corridors and weird rooms with lots of staircases and cat walks and drops. And I didn't really know where I was going but I followed the crows and used my power to kind of track people down as much as I could with my equally memey and stupid impossible skill check build. They were very nice after the round was over. They gave me some kudos for managing to win even though none of us had any idea what we were doing on that map and for playing a dumb kind of goofy character like the doctor. The only fun, decent game of dead by daylight I think I've ever played my life.

@not Otzdarva I had one game where a random bringing a white ward killed my friend. Let me explain: We were vs a freddy, and this was before any hatch changes. I got tunnelled out pretty early (not complianing, valid tactic and all) and I was in chat with my 1 SWF. Looking around between them and the 2 randoms, i noticed one had a key, so I called it out to my swf that, hey, that nea has a key. After a little while, the nea gets hooked on the corner hook of shack, and dies because my friend couldn't get to them, but by this point hatch had spawned since there were 2 gens left and 2 survivors. I noticed it through nea's POV on hook, so i told her "Hey, use nea's key on the hatch right behind her death hook" My friend runs to the hook while being chased, and loops around the shack like 3 times hoping to walk across the key and pick it up, but it never shows, she's like "YOU LIED THERE'S NO KEY" and we're both just complete confusion. My friend gets caught, hooked, and dies. In the endgame i show her that yes, Nea did have a key, and we notice the white ward. SHE TOOK THE KEY WITH HER WHEN SHE DIED SO MY FRIEND WAS UNABLE TO PICK IT UP AND USE IT. And that's the story of how a white ward objectively, directly caused the death of my swf, so it DOES have at least ONE in game effect.

otz, your commitment to this game and its community to make it more digestible is formidable to say the least. i can say you really got me past that initial dbd learning curve a few years ago and its become my favorite game since :) thanks again otzy

Otz! One very minor thing you left out of this video that I haven't seen in the comments: Pinhead loves Shroud of Separation! Combined with Lethal Pursuer, you can use it to find your box quickly!

The brown remove mist offering is useful for console players who are tired of lagging. Mist offerings can single handedly be the difference between your game freezing for half a second in chase and having stable gameplay.

Best intro yet, Otz truly is an inter-generational man of the people.

5:25 I also think the shack one is stronger because there's no variable. The hatch always spawns outside, on the side with a boarded up window. There's some main building tiles with weird hatch spawns where the hatch can spawn outside or in a similarly weird place.

One thing of note about Main Building offerings; some of them actually have set spawn locations for the Hatch around said Main Building. I haven’t tested all maps but for Haddonfield it will always spawn somewhere in the back yard type area of the Myers’ house, and for Sanctum of Wrath it will spawn just slightly off from the small staircase, usually at the edge of the statue perimeter

I challenge Otz to complete the All Killer’s Adept Challenge. Getting a merciless with every killer using their own perks in a row without losing seems like something only he could do

Whenever we get a new friend trying out killer in KYFs, I’ll bring the shroud of binding and a firecracker. When we load in I instantly toss the firecracker and cause mayhem

A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one!

Not a secret, but the mist makes cloaked wraith harder to spot on open maps.

The Black Ward & White Ward tells you that the killer or survivor is bringing the big guns. So I wouldn't say they belong in No Impact.

Ghost face does well w mist offering especially on open maps like Ormond or foresakenoneyard where you can't really creep in too many instances, can also conceal traps from hag and trapper

"If they have Flip-flop, or there is no hook available... errr... or your back hurts..." Ok that one got me really good 😄

I find that if I use vigos shroud then I actually get found faster, since you get spawned directly across the map from the killer (about majority of the time.. or at least for me) they usually head straight towards me unless they’re interrupted by another survivor. Meaning, I usually bring it if I want to get chased (since 90% of the time I am anyways) and I can waste the killers time as much as possible :D

id complain about otz encouraging the use of map offerings by listing them as the best if i didnt already get sent to ormond or eyrie every other match

What we need now is Otz showing us a match against his friends who bring eyrie map, 75% mist, biggest hook separation offering and basement in shack offerings and play as Trapper without corrupt. Will be a fun match.

Warning: the information contained this tier list may vary slightly depending on your skill level. For me, +75% mist in eyrie of crows turns every killer into a stealth killer :D

Just got covid and otz comes through as usual

A fairly small thing: if I remember correctly, the killer map offering is weighted double that of a survivor's. So if both a killer and survivor bring an offering, it's 2/3 to the killer, 1/3 to the survivor. If 2 survivors bring one, 1/4 to the first, 1/4 to the second, and 2/4 to the killer, and so on.

Otz: says that the luck offering giving you a higher chance of getting a second addon upon finding an item with ace in the hole wouldn't be something anyone really cares about Me, a professional Plunderers Instinct + Ace in the Hole + Appraisal build user who didn't know this: I beg your pardon?

They removed luck having any benefit to drops, it's only hook escapes chance and it works out to around 52% chance per attempt if you stack all 4 offerings and 4 ace perks.

One thing that made me go nuts is where you have placed Swamp and Crotus Prenn offerings. Because BOTH offerings send you to either a survivor-sided or heavily survivor-sided maps. Swamp especially hurts certain killers (Plague, Artist as most infamous examples) as well as almost any build that includes hexes. And don’t forget that swamp on any map has a strong main + pier, which is more than any other map could have dreamt of. Crotus, on the other hand, features two of the largest maps in the game as well as two of the most busted main buildings you could ever find, especially Disturbed Ward, and is a nightmare offering to see as almost any killer.

The Cypress Mori is my favorite offering to bring, because it feels like a little reward for playing a good match, when you get to use it.

Hatch offering on survivors doing adept is by far the best way to get survivor adepts solo que. If you find your team is losing in your adept game, you can just camp it out, hide in lockers and go to the hatch immediately and get your adept achievement since survivor adepts don't require you to escape through the exit gates (which they should imo)

I loved the spite in the chat whenever every survivor brought Cakes for 105%+ BP and the killer casually took Mori. During the event itself.

You could argue that in the isolated instance of a single game, the white/black ward offerings are bad. This is because they tell the opposing side that you have something powerful, that is worth saving. This could make them more wary of strong items/addons you could have and behave differently as a result. E.g. survivors see a black ward and it's a clown, so they do everything in their power to not be hit directly with a bottle, even before the addon is revealed.

Great upload

Quick note that the Yellow Mori is becoming part of the base kit later this year according to the dev roadmap. So eventually that offering will be obsolete.

The intro was a master peice “Hey it’s otz On god” lol

Fun fact; moris also enable the shroud offerings by default. If the killer brings any mori all 4 survivors will spawn in close proximity to one another. Typically in teams of two but with the e-bone mori all 5 can spawn together.

Last night on one of the corn maps I kept seeing big clouds or mist in the corn and thought it was crouching survivors.

Appreciate the content Otz - but I have to say this looks very different if you are a beginner in solo que vs a SWF that has being playing for a while. I would always reccomend add ons that increase your bloodpoints over anything else, you really need them when your starting out. Also add ons that benefit others like streamers are great, but remember that they may incentivise sweating from the other players, including the Killer. When your playing solo, the luck ones are next to useless and the dark mist ones are easily mitigated by killer perks. Everytime I have seen a survivor bring one its backfired.

I have noticed some matches when the Killer brought a green hook offering (-2.5m apart) and a survivor brought one purple hook offering (+1m apart) and the hooks seemed to spawn VERY far apart as seen by Saboteur with significant hook dead zones after a survivor got sacrificed. HOWEVER this was on Midwich, so while this could have very easily been Just Midwich Things, it might be something worth investigating (might be something along the lines of the survivor's offering has a hidden "-1 hooks total in the match" while killer offering guarantees nothing, so all the hooks just got clustered on one side of the map and created a hook deadzone elsewhere. hard to tell, and it isn't really likely to happen routinely in matches since it depends on the killer and survivors both bringing specific addons).

The best part of this video is Sheva in the background. She's such an underrated character I love her 😭

White wards impact the trial ! If a survivor brings it I can't steal their item when they die :( wait what who said that?

I like using coins with plunderer and streetwise. I usually bring a toolbox in the game when I play like this, so after i deplete the toolbox first, I search for a chest and get another item, if it's another toolbox, I use it and repeat, if it's a medkit I keep it in case I need it and if it's a key or map I'll either just do gens or go for another chest if I have one close.

Shroud of Binding is stuff i use on my "kill my teammates build" bond to find teammates, pebble to lure the killer to teammates, red herring to lure killer to teammate's gens, left behind to find the hatch after the team has died.

Thank you for another well informed tierlist, Otz. Hope you have had a nice day.

I'm sorry but I have a rebuttal, and I think it's quite solid with my own testing of Dredge - whom I love to play as. 11:40 I happen to love the 75% extra fog on Dredge, who is made of fog and blends in - then also has survivors highlighted in bright white during nightfall - then I bring my trusty nightfall add ons Fallen Shingle + 15% always added on - Malthinker's Skull + 66% if a survivor is injured and have my nightfall activate in 16 seconds immediately after it has ended (Just a small break in a locker to recharge your G-fuel gaming chair) - It's just brutal on most maps regardless of their resources. Dredge is 100% an exception to this circumstance. 1 injured survivor (181%) 23.677979 seconds of Locker time if no hit = Y Current seconds hit value = 1.5769534 x 1 = 1.5769534 22.101025 seconds of Locker time if you got the hit(s) 4 injured survivors (181%) 16.574585 seconds of Locker time if no hits = Y Current seconds hit value = 1.10386736 x 4 = 4.41546944 12.159116 seconds of Locker time if you got the hit(s)

You forgot to bring up the fact that basement offerings can heavily manipulate rng since hooks spawn further from basements which messes with what fillers spawn. This is very noticeable on maps like suffocation pit where you will notice that the top side of the map will seem "dead" with a higher chance of hill hooks etc.

Although the black ward and white ward technically have no impact, I will say that whenever a killer or survivor plays one I usually assume they're bringing strong addons and/or items. For example, if I see a Myers bringing a black ward I immediately suspect infinite tier 3, tombstone, or even both. This is a bit more difficult to do against survivors who play a white ward since you don't necessarily know who played it, but you can at the very least assume that at least one of them are bringing something super strong. So while they don't do anything in the game itself they can often be an indicator of strong items and thus could give the other team an advantage in figuring out exactly what the person who played the ward might have. They still belong in the "no impact" tier imo, but I just thought this was worth mentioning.

Im queuing as ghost face watching this and I see the Eyrie of Crows mist section, look up, and I’m in the map, and survivors brought an offering and yellow mist. Thanks Otz

The mist has actually cause me issues as a survivor before. I was playing a game with my buddy on Eyrie and a purple mist was sent. We went up against a ghostface and found it incredibly hard to break his stealth. Even when healing in the exit gate, he just sat in the doorway and we could not reveal him. That game was the thickest mist ive ever seen

Ive heard an argument that some people may bring the -2 chest offering to counteract the extra chests of Hoarder, so that they can focus on Hoarder notifications just being the box, vaccines etc.

A part of me died with that intro

I liked the time where map offerings only gave you a 25/50/75 chance. I was very confused when I realised that you can only get 100% ones now

Considering the Coin Offering: You forgot the psychological advantage you get as a killer when you deny the survivors the chests for their archives. Other then that great video as always otz

Old RCPD had a use for 3-4 purple +1m branches, as its hallways that separated hooks by quite a bit separated the hooks even more, making it so that there were complete deadzones even with no hooks missing unless the killer had agitation and this was quite common. It actually made No Mither fairly good with unbreakable for the recovery speed since you could run into that corner, and either get dropped by the killer and run back there, or the killer ignores you and you just keep picking yourself up over and over and every survivor could do this.

Blood point offering especially ones that give points to survives can encourage them to help each other more often and can make everyone more chill sometimes? everyone knows they’re going to get bonus BP so they could maybe not be so try hard? or they could try to grind as many BPs as possible depends on the person

Countless times I’ve waited at the exit gate with a hatch offering and got out because the killer went to whatever building and closed it Have to grab the tape if there’s an Onryo with a tv by gate. I’ve had a Spirit get to me on time across map once with speed add ons, but for the most part I’ve opened the gate baiting them with hatch

I think Map-Offerings should remove items and addons when using them, it means you have a choice of a great medkit/toolbox or a great map which makes them less brainless. Maybe a less punishment for killer, maybe only having the choice of 1 add-on with a map offering

Otz claims at 1:55 that bringing BP offerings doesn't affect gameplay at all but every time I pop a Bloody Party Streamers it turns the killer into either a wallhack or a tombstone Myers with a pink mori.

After that intro that rope is lookin mighty fine

So either this is Otz or there is no God. Well played.

I believe that the offerings to put the cave in main building is better than in the shack in a lot of situation. By not getting the cave at the shack survivors are free to loop at one of the best spot of the map without being scared of going to be punish by going to cave if they mess up. Plus, even if, like you say in the video, cave at main building is stronger for killer, in solo queue i see the most killers simply miss that the cave is in main and use a normal hook. It can also be more difficult to reach than in shack as a killer. As a killer i'm often scared of not getting the time to hook on cave in main, sometimes by not knowing the exact location of the beginning of the stairs, or by not knowing the shorter way to go in. This can seem pointless for matchs with very good killers, but for thoses who don't have a MMR of pro players i think this is consistent. Medium or even good killer can have theses problems with cave at main

This is my favorite Otz intro 😭

So the meanest offering combo is Eyrie map, shack basement, increased hook distance and increased mist...that's got to be nasty to go against as killer

As a killer i run the plus25%, 50% or 75% mist only if im playing as a trapper. & run the add ons that make the traps harder to see. It works wonders tbh

3:35 wow otz it seems like this may have happened to you, you expalined it so well!

Map offerings are the bane of my existence I hate how common they are compared to the counter, the one that blocks maps

Hey Otz, I would love to see another "all perks explained and tierlisted" kinda like video. lot of things had changed since the last video and I would rlly love that. Thanks for all the info videos lately !

I agree that the placement of the black and white wards makes sense, as they don’t actually change anything about the trial itself. BUT while not changing the trial, they’re pretty useful for determining if your opponent is bringing a particularly strong item or set of add ons. So if I see one as a killer I can expect at least one really strong med kit usually or as survivor probably a blight with alchemist ring or spirit with mother daughter ring or something. It doesn’t actually change the trial but it can be helpful to try and have an idea what you’re up against.

Purple Shroud is strong. I use it with Hyperfocus, BNP, and Prove Thyself. We all spawn on 1 generator and finish it in like 30 seconds lol.

Yay! Great video, thanks. I suggested it on one of your recent streams, maybe I gave you an inspiration. Anyway, good to have it all nicely explained in one place

Otz always gives us high effort videos we didn't know we needed! 🥰

I sometimes like to add Mist while im playing Trapper to hide the traps, alongside that addon to make them darker

Played against 3 Petrified Oaks on Garden of Joy the other day. I got one hook at the shack. The next closest hook from shack that was still kinda safe to reach was at the corner of the close to the greenhouse/picket fence. And there was none at the parking lot. The rest of the map had them spawn rather normally, but damn. (Of course there is a very good chance I missed seeing a hook in the heat of the moment, but that also helps the survivors)

i don't know if you'll see this, otz, but if the shroud of binding and separation switched sides, how do you think you would rate them, roughly?

I was hoping you'd let us know which ones were the secret ones. Is it just Mori's that are secret?

I never noticed purple hand icons looked different until now!

Aaannnddd now with xeno we discovered that the cut coin add-ons could actually be great on some killers.

The only times the shroud of binding is good is if you're on a swf and brought prove with 4 brand new parts and streetwise and hyper focus on a green toolbox, just to have that first gen go right away, and even then, the one to spawn in pairs could be better to have two gens go right away instead of one

another downside to bp offerings is a hidden stat that increases your odds of facing a basement bubba

This is Otz? Deadass???

sacrificial ward is also great because of the joy you feel when you deny a broken map offering

ACTUALLY you forgot one thing, the 2 offerings say "spawn hatch IN shack IN main building" but the shack literally always spawns outside to the side of the shack/building.

I think more offerings need to be secret offerings and not just the shrouds (and Moris) . It would shake up the game a little trying to guess what the other survivors or killer brings.

I personally like using mist add ons on sadako (with the intermittent add on) to sneak up in the open .

Hello Otz, this is friends, at least according to my subscription. It seems you missed in your map offering description to say that usually if the survivor who brought the map offering goes down first, they DC from the game, which makes them very strong for killer even if the survivors bring the offering. It's a 1 in 4 guess, but you can usually tell if there's a Nea or Feng with a flashlight and bright cosmetics that it was them.

Might be copium, but I think bringing a BP cake makes the killer want to play longer games, therefore improving your chances to survive/gain more bp/gain more pips. Whenever I play a snowball heavy killer and see the survivors bring a lot of BP offerings, I often stall with my snowball even if I get the chance, just because I don't wanna waste those offerings.

3:32 Someone: Otz, how do you know that? Otz: It would be better if you just didn't ask
