Knight Character Mini Guide

Knight includes 3 perks (0 Survivor · 3 Killer).

Unlock Identity

  • Top tags: Aura, Chase, Cool-down, Dying, Exposed
  • Bloodpoint footprint: Brutality, Hunter, Deviousness
  • Killer-heavy pool: use perk value to force repeatable pressure loops, not one-off highlight plays.

How To Pilot This Character Pool

  • Choose one perk as the primary match-phase anchor, then let the second slot stabilize its weakest window.
  • If two character perks do the same job at different reliability, keep the safer trigger and use the spare slot for consistency.
  • Hex: Face the Darkness: If there is still a Dull Totem in the environment, Hex: Face the Darkness lights a Hex Totem after injuring a Survivor by any means, cursing them with its Hex Effects .

Practical Use

  • Sample perks: Hex: Face the Darkness, Hubris, Nowhere to Hide
  • Hubris: Whenever a Survivor stuns you by any means, Hubris triggers its effect: Causes them to suffer from the Exposed Status Effect for 20 / 25 / 30 seconds .
