New Killer "The Knight" + New Map, Survivor, Mori, Perks & more | Dead by Daylight PTB 

This follow-up video explains the Knight's power better & showcases some builds ➡ ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-pFvCShROJEo.html

The leigon: “Hah! We are a group, we outnumber all other killers!” The knight: “hold my beer…”

this killer has the type of "me and the boys" energy that legion should've had from the start

One thing I gotta say, this killer has some amazing addon design. No meme add-ons, amazing browns, tons of variety and uniqueness, every addon seems genuinely useful in its own way.

The Knight: *gets decisive striked* Also The Knight: Tis but a scratch

Behavior: “we can’t reprogram nemesis’ zombies” Also Behavior: “Look guys we made a sick AI for the new Knight Killer!”

I can’t help but feel like his power is something that would’ve worked really well for Legion.

They gave their new killer his own SWF. I love it.

I love that they went with a Frog Helmet for The Knight. It looks so good and so intimidating!

His mori is just incredible - it really makes you realize they need to update the older moris.

if i remember correctly, in Otz's FAQ, he says the killer he'd want is someone who can set paths for a second killer to patrol around. seems he's finally got it.

I absolutely adore the sound design for this killer it is just amazing The clattering armor as he walks around the horn when a guard is chasing a survivor the exhale after striking a survive that sometimes turns into a monotone laugh (literally sounds like he is saying haha) he rarely seems to express any emotion in his voice which really sells the idea of him being an emotionless killing machine the slight muffling/distortion in his voice from wearing a helmet Easily my favorite killer from a visual and audio stand point Another thing I want to add is that a proper gore system in dbd would really shine in particular with this killer imagine if the jailer's chop dismembered the arm and when the knight pulls the sword out of their chest the body is left with a cut running down all the way to the intestines with a bisected sternum granted that won't happen simply because of the shear amount of work it would need to work with all the different outfits that we have in this game plus it would feel extremely awkward to have such extreme displays of gore on something like Kate in her more revealing outfits

I wish Legion and the Cenobite also had Mori's that included more than one killer as it would be a lot more fitting lore wise. Hopefully we are able to customize which Mori we have equipped in the future.

This is probably one of if not the most unique killer in the game. I can't wait to see how he will look on the live version

I never thought there would be a mori even more gruesome then the Oni’s

The Mori is the definition of “FIGHT BACK FIGHT BACK”

This is seriously what legion should've been, have each member do something different, give feral frenzy to frank, make Julie a good tracker, joey the guy that breaks stuff, and make Susie the one that runs away from survivors but also marks them like victor does for the twins

According to the Ability description, here's what each guards is better at : Carnifex (Skull with spikes) : breaks and damages objects faster Assassin (Broken sword) : moves fast during Hunt Jailer (double keys) : patrols for a longer period and detects survivors better.

This killer looks sick. I cannot WAIT to see high-level play with The Knight in the future

depending on how the exposed effect works with the different guards i could see the knight's contract being a very powerful add-on, cause if the guards can insta-down survivors while they are exposed then that means every 4th summon has a potential 8 second window to take a survivor out of match and with your killer instinct you could run the yellow add-on to make really long patrol paths to potentially catch survivors off guard and then just waltz over and grab them or even send another guard to go patrol the downed survivor while you focus on other survivors on gens

That perk that allows him to see survivors around when kicking a gen could become really handy. Coz by experience, a lot of survivors stealth around a generator that they're working on when the killer comes to check so they can immediately continue the progress when the killer leaves, but that's gonna change now.

Finally a 4v4 game mode!

I said this on stream, but there were a good few bugs and other issues that I hope get fixed soon because Knight’s a great concept. Assuming he gets the needed fixes (especially the fact that getting the banner gives haste *and* BT), I think he could be solid

The power is like right in the middle of Nemesis and The Twins which is really interesting. This’ll make chases alot more engaging hopefully. I cannot wait to play this on console!

It’s so cool BHVR still manage to come up with interesting killer powers. Hyped for this chapter to release live!

I like how this single killer invalidates legion, twins, and nemesis at the same time

This killer is hungarian and I absolutely love it! Me and my friends laughed for like 2 hours straight cuz of the name of the killer. (we didnt even know the name Tarhos is exist)

I like how you can see which guard you'll summon with the Knights left hand

Leg: “there are 4 of us, we are unstoppable!” Knight: hold my holy crusade

BHVR seems to have adopted this new style for addons somewhat consistently recently. Started more or less with Artist, and with the rework to legion's addons. There's much more variety between tiers, rather than each tier just being a copy of the tier below it (or most of it) just with better numbers. I really hope they go back to some of the older killers and do addon reworks to shift more towards this style. Stuff like wraith could really use addons done this way. Or some of the last killers to get the old style even, like pinhead. I really liked the idea of "rarity" being more about how "complex" the addon is, or how much it affects the playstyle. Rather than directly tied to power level. Iri's don't have to be overpoweringly strong, and browns don't have to be effectively meaningless. Just make strong browns with simpler effects, and slightly-stronger iris with really cool effects (relatively slightly stronger than the other addons that killer is getting, not stronger than what we've had in the past)

I just started the public beta download for him. How many auric coins is he? Or do you need to buy him while on public beta?

Question! At 10:55 there is a perk behind Inner Healing that I have never seen before. Was this added in with the PTB? Or am I an idiot.

The power of having two different chases at once? That’s crazy powerful.

Hubris, enduring, and spirit fury are about to be terrifying together

About Hubris, does it work on Legion the way I think it would work? While Legion is in frenzy, can it insta down survivor?

The hex perk requires the survivors to be outside the terror radius. I think the survs were just too curios, and didn't leave the radius xD Also, the totem becomes dull again, when the survivor is either downed or changes health state. This means that survivors can only disable the new perk, if they cleanse the randomly activated totem WHILE the curse is active (ie. the surviver is not yet downed and hasn't healed). If the cursed survivor heals or gets downed, then they lose that chance of disabling the hex.

Here’s how I see each guard being used: Carnifex: opening a path for the assassin/you during chases OR keeping up gen pressure from a distance (or even 2 at a time) Assassin: when you know where a survivor is and want to down them quickly Jailer: when you want to keep an area locked down OR to find where survivors are hiding

This killer is pretty damn good, can't wait to double team some Feng's

Thanks for the video Otz.

That tech for the guards seems incredible! Hopefully they can implement the logic for the nemesis zombies!!

These types of killer that get to summon AI to help them are really neat, I hope we get more in the future

That Mori’s almost exactly what I wanted from Legion: they all warp in from different trials to help each other with the kill, then warp out.

Does Nowhere to Hide work with perks that indirectly damage gens, like Jolt and Pain Resonance?

hey, it's stallioid :) Something I noticed about these survivor perks is that, by their presence, they make currently unpopular killer playstyles stronger. The natural counterplay to Potential Energy is to hit and run, spread pressure out, and try to keep a lot of survivors injured. The natural counterplay to Fogwise is to play stealth killers and run perks that obscure your aura and/or terror radius. My theory for a while has been that BHVR sees new chapter releases as their most important balancing tools, and so I can't help but wonder if they made these perks at this time because they want to encourage more varied killer playstyles.

Wow he seems really interesting and well made, they did 4 models for 1 character that's a lot of dedication and he seems really fun to play not accounting the amazing animations

enduring + spirit fury + hubris = powerful disgusting combo

Hey Im newish to the game and was wondering if the PTB always uses steve's old images for perks or if the hopium I'm huffing for the stranger things pack to come back is real

Sprit fury, enduring, and hubris is going to be insane!

This killer has very unique concept I love it, unless the AI do silly things like nemesis zombie 😂

I like their lore, it also would've been sick having a cruel princess summoning her guards to do her dirtywork

do his skills apply to his guards? for ex. if the guard hits the generator while the perk is active, is the survivor still revealed?

Trail of Torment + Nowhere to hide + Call of Brine + Lethal Pursuer You can send a guard exactly where the survivor is, and use your undetectable effect to close in for an ambush

I'm happy that this Killer has such a cool power, but at the same time I'm sad to know that Legion didn't get this power that has the right theme for him. And also that Killers like Nemesis and Twins didn't get such special attention with the AI of their powers.

I’m just imagining Legion having this power, but instead of a knight summoning his guards, Frank just sends Susie, Joey, and Julie. That could’ve actually been pretty sick. Also, I like how some of the new perks have good synergy with other perks. I’ll probably be using Stake Out with Fogwise, and I will definitely be using Hubris with Enduring and/or Spirit Fury.

when i saw the thumbnail i thought it was some dark souls fan killer thing but no, this is legit. and when you did the mori you and i both had the jaw drop reaction XD like holy shit that was brutal

Wait can u get him with the blue currency or do u have to get him with the yellow one?

Fogwise is perfect with the Hyperfocus-Stake Out build, not only doing gens fast, but seeing the killer in large portions. Heck even adding potential energy to it wouldn’t be bad.

The new killer looks super fun.

what i am curious about is -- if you order him to go kick a gen and there's survs near it, will be kick it first, then go into chase? Or does the order just cancel any potential hunts? Or does he ignore the order because a hunt takes priority?

my relationship with dbd is weird nowadays but i always come time to time to some otz videos especially the ptb ones,keep up the great work otz

I really wish the Legion had a skill like this, it's just such a cool concept and it'd work amazingly for them. Glad everyone seems happy about this character, though, he's cool looking.

As a hungarian,i do approve Edit: Tarhos Kovács ("The Knight"'),Kovács is Blacksmith in hungarian,it was common at the time to have the last names be some employment.Point is "The Knight" simply seems like a fun addition and this little thing makes it all the more better for ones such as i from the country

The Iri Company Banner is insane, dude. It can Boozle and apply a single target Crowd Control and Bloodwarden. Add the hunt duration add-on to it and you can mess someone up.

Doesnt hubris spirit furry work? Or maybe some recharges on certain killer powers count as stuns

I saw description for Hubris and immediately thought "Spirit fury + Enduring is gonna be alot more interesting"

wow, it’s incredible how fast otz puts these ptb videos out, thank you!

The power is like combining the artists power, being able to set traps, but easy to counter, just with a similar Nemesis zombie AI. I dont think its top tier, but we'll see how powerful it is. Especially with how different gaurds can break or vault pallets, it really makes it luck based on whether or not they'll be the right one to counter whatever loop you're at

One thing I need to know now, do break actions with the guards trigger relevant perks (call of brine, overcharge, etc.)? Also seems like since the guard patrol starts at the end of the drawn path, doesn't that mean you can just drop a guard directly on top of a survivor?

This reminds me of the idea that was floating around for them where all 4 members are on the map and you can switch between them at will, if each member would have a unique chase AI while you arent in control of them it could maybe look something like this Power: Strength in Numbers At the start of the trial, the Legion spreads around, each member patroling a small area. If a suvivor is seen by a member, they will start to chase the survivor, the chase ends if the survivor loses the Legion member or the Legion member successfully downs the survivor, the Legion member will either do their lost chase action and continue patroling from where they end off or patrol the area around the downed survivor Frank - Relentless but tunnelvisioned, Frank is the fastest and doesnt get slowed by vaulting pallets or windows but loses sight of survivors faster aswell, doesnt check lockers unless he directly sees someone enter it Julie - Calculating but trickable, Julie will try to cut off survivors she, or nearby Legion members, are chasing but will lose the survivor if it didnt work, will check nearby lockers after a lost chase Joey - Destructive but slow, Joey will break pallets instead of vaulting them and also breaks pallets he gets stunned by but is the slowest of the group, will kick the nearest genrator after a lost chase Susie - Quiet but meek, Susie has a smaller terror radius and no red stain while not in a chase but loses chase if she gets stunned, returns to her prior patrol position after a lost chase

This killer, these perks, the animations ... absolutely crazy

my reaction was exactly yours during the mori i was like- okay.. that’s some lotr nazgûl thing going on and that’s brutal

So cool to see otz upload another dark souls video, gotta love it

Just imagined your future review right after I watched the trailer! Thanks, Otz! ❤️

I love that Otz is always here to give us quick breakdowns in DBD love the content Otz keep it up!

I had an idea for that potential energy perk when I made my own perk ideas. It was like if you escape upwards of 5-6 chases you get a token. You can spend 1 token on a Gen below 20% progress and give that Gen 50% progress of the Gen with the most progress.

Thanks Otz for the great demo and analysis!

this power has insane versatility, and a very high skill ceiling. definitely one of the stronger killers once you learn him

This is what I expected legion to be like, even the Mori is what I wanted from the legion

Hubris with enduring and spirit fury sounds crazy fun

I wonder if the guard system from Meet Your Maker had something to do with this killer, I know maybe different teams are working on both games but it seemed like an alternate version from that one, really cool

From the dredge to the knight. Everyone that doubted the devs. They have proven us that they are capable of making phenomenal killers with original creativity

This is what I wanted The Twins to be, her sending out Victor when she chases and does stuff like an attack dog, but these guards are way better and i'm excited to play him

so are summons effected by perks like Make Your Choice?

I just got The Knight last night. Played a few matches and decided that he’s great. I learn by trial and love his perks, the exposed after stun is crazy. Able to trap and double team for guaranteed down. 2 chases at once. Great synergy between map control and major pressure on survivors.

That Mori looks like actual effort went into it

Always in my mind calculating the different builds when new perks come out. I see spirit fury + enduring being pretty fun with the new hubris. Great video btw ❤️

Would hubris work with spirit Fury??? i see some crazy synergy

Endurance with this is gonna be nuts, especially with a guard guarding a pallet and or quick breaking perks

Finally, evening the odds with a 4v4.

Interesting to see this killer's powers after having played BHVR's current work-in-progress game: Meet Your Maker The quick rundown for those unaware, BHVR's Meet Your Maker is a base-building/raiding game, where you build a base full of traps and *guards* to protect a valuable game resource. You can either raid bases, trying to steal the rare material, or build a base yourself to farm said material. I've had a blast doing both, it was cool how much creativity you had when building, especially when it comes to your guards. Of course there are different buffs you can give them, but you can *direct their pathing* and behavior. The way you direct them is literally by walking around and looking around as you would if you were actually them, similar to how it looks here at 1:50. I'm not saying anything particularly good or bad about this, but it was cool to see the skills they're learning in MYM bleed over to DBD.

Otz, what would you think about this scenario: They(BH) tone down a lot of information survivors receive from killers but increase information they receive from other survivors, like for example: the knight gives a lot of information, as other killers do at the moment, they could reduce the information to the point where the only thing we receive are attack cues and Terror Radius (Myers and Ghostface sounds while stealth too), at the other hand, survivors receive information about other survivors being chased, doing actions, like opening doors for example, doing challenges, using perks ... would that reduce the complaints about SWF while passively buffing solo queue?

With no where to hide you don't have to actual break the gen but starting the animation and stopping it causes the perk to active otherwise. As a result you can just spam the animation to give yourself wall hacks and with lethal, brutal strength and maybe fire up you're able to abuse this tech mid chase

Hoping Nemesis' zombies go enlist themselves to the Knight's hunt to help improve their AI as well. I think the Jailer will be their best teacher.

Killer mains: Playing killer against four individual survivors is pretty hard. You need to play well against each survivor, have map control, know the survivors’ positions at all times. It’s exhausting to manage yourself. BHVR: Got u fam ♥️♥️.

Hex: face the darkness could work better as a pentimento type of totem since it occurs so often. If might be better to run it with different hex totems to mask your active ones

nice to see bhvr dropping banger killers again, dredge,wesker,the knight. they're on the right track.

The new mori has to be the most brutal of all, that was so cool!

Behaviour has been on an absolute roll recently, loving all this new stuff

Question: what happends when Legion's using Hubris, gets stunned and uses his ability? Does exposed work or does it just do mending?

i really like the idea of the knight and hope their aren't too underwhelming. the exposed perk is mostly likely only usable with spirit fury enduring and survivors can then just pre-drop pallets as usual. the aura reading is definitely nice and not too op with the 24 m. also kicking gens takes time. the guards seem to be the better version of nemesis' zombies and how they should have been.
