DBD New Killer – The Knight  

Tarhos Kovács, also known as The Knight, is the latest killer to arrive in Dead by Daylight. He has an Average height, a move speed of 4.6 m/s, and a Terror Radius of 32 meters. His Power is called the Guardia Compagnia, and like all other killers, he has three unique perks.

The Knight's Power, Guardia Compagnia, allows him to enter Guard Summon mode. While in this mode, the Knight can trace out a Patrol Path for the duration of his Power. Once the duration ends, or once the Knight presses the Power button, he will summon one of three Guards to patrol said Patrol Path. These three Guards are The Carnifex, The Assassin, and the Jailer. The summon order rotates in that order. When the Guard spots a Survivor along the Patrol Path, they will drop a Standard, and start Hunting down the survivor. This Hunt ends when the Guard hits the Survivor, or if the Hunt timer runs out.

Each of the Guards has their own strengths that the Knight can take advantage of.

  • The Carnifex: Has a longer Hunt phase
  • The Assassin: Moves faster during a hunt and causes Deep Wound when hitting survivors
  • The Jailer: Moves faster when Patrolling, has a large Detection range and a longer Patrol phase

Survivors can escape from the Guards by unhooking another survivor, grabbing the Standard, or by simply running away.

The Knight can also send his Guards to destroy or damage nearby objects. This includes Generators, downed Pallets, and breakable walls. The Carnifex breaks and damages these objects the fastest.

His three perks, Nowhere to Hide, Hex: Face the Darkness, and Hubris, are all geared toward locating survivors, and taking them down in one hit once conditions are met.

  • Nowhere to Hide: Whenever the Killer damages a Generator, the Auras of all Survivors within 24 meters get revealed for a time.
  • Hes: Face the Darkness: Whenever the Killer injures a Survivor, a Dull Totem on the map activates with this Hex. While this Hex is active, or while the injured survivor remains injured, all other Survivors scream while outside the Killer's Terror Radius.
  • Hubris: Whenever the Killer gets stunned by a Survivor, the Survivor suffers from Exposed for a time.

Managing the Guards properly and putting down good Patrol Paths is the key to mastering the Knight.

DBD New Survivor – Vittorio Toscano

The new Survivor, Vittorio Toscano, is the newest Survivor to arrive in Dead by Daylight. He has three unique Perks, all focused around preparing generators and staying safe while doing it. These three perks are Potential Energy, Fogwise, and Quick Gambit.

  • Potential Energy: While repairing a Generator, the Survivor can activate this perk after some time. Once the perk is active, any repair progress instead grants the Survivor up to 20 tokens depending on repair time. The survivor can then use these tokens to repair other generators by 1% per Token.
  • Fogwise: Whenever Survivors hit a Great Skill Check while repairing a Generator, they can see the Killer's Aura for some time.
  • Quick Gambit: While in a chase, Survivors with this perk improve the Generator repair speed of any Survivor repairing a generator within 24 meters.
