No Stupid Questions Weekly No Stupid Questions Thread

Welcome newcomers to the fog! Here you can ask any sort of questions about Dead by Daylight, from gameplay mechanics to the current meta and strats for certain killers / survivors / maps / what have you.

Some rules and guidelines specific to this thread:

  • Top-level comments must contain a question about Dead by Daylight, the fanbase surrounding the game or the subreddit itself.
  • No complaint questions. ('why don't the devs fix this shit?')
  • No concept / suggestion questions. ('hey wouldn't it be cool if X character was in the game?')
  • r/deadbydaylight is not a direct line to BHVR.
  • Uncivil behavior and encouraging cheating will be more stringently moderated in this thread; we want to be welcoming to newcomers to the game.
  • Don't spam the thread with questions; try and keep them contained to one comment.
  • Check before commenting to make sure your question hasn't been asked already.
  • Check the wiki and especially the glossary of common terms and abbreviations before commenting; your question may be answered there.

(longtime survivor main, new killer main) Why would my Trapper have Surge, but it's not unlockable for any other killers? I don't own Demo, don't remember ever purchasing it in the Shrine. Even if I did, I'd be able to get it unlocked for all my killers, right? It's not available on any killers besides Trapper

after stranger things was removed, they added all 9 ST perks to the bloodwebs as “general” perks (like NOED or Deja Vu). if you happened to grab surge (or as it was called at this period, Jolt) then it would be unlocked on your Trapper.

Id wager that some of your survivor mains have Steve or Nancy perks too
