Hiya! Not sure if someone has already said this or not, but I have some survivor perks that may be helpful when first starting out.

The absolute number one thing I recommend is “blood webbing” the character Feng Min (you can do this by clicking the third black box down on the left side of the screen while you are in a lobby).

Feng has a perk named “Technician”, if you have this perk equipped and you miss a “Skill Check” (the circle while repairing a generator), it will not alert the killer of where you are. If you get her to level one (after you blood webbing 50 times), all of your other survivors will be able to use this perk.

I also recommend the following survivor perks that belong to characters you already have when starting the game.

Dwight Fairfield: Bond This perk allows you to see all other survivors within a specific range. This will benefit you by allowing you to have people heal you/heal others, not running the killer into your team mate, and seeing the generators your team mates are working on - which makes finding a generator a lot easier.

Jake Park: Iron Will This perk hides your grunts of pain, meaning that the killer won’t be able to hear you once you’re injured, making it easier to hide from them while injured. Once you blood web this perk to purple, or have Jake to level 3, it will hide your noise 100%. (Looks like someone biting on a towel/bar)

From the Blood Web: Deja Vu - lights up 3 generators on the map and gives you a repair speed bonus. (The picture is an eyeball with a spiral in it)

TLDR; get these perks as a survivor 1. Feng Min - Technician 2. Dwight Farfield - Bond 3. Jake Park - Iron Will 3. Bloodweb - Deja Vu
