As you use Michael Myer's Stalk ability you will notice Myer's Evil Within gauge begin to increase. Stalking is the primary method in which Myers levels up his Evil Within gauge, as the meter is connected to how long Myers can see a Survivor when in his Stalking mode. The longer a player can look at Survivor while in Stalking the higher the gauge will begin to increase. The level to which this gauge will increase is dependent upon how close the Survivor is to Michael and for how long he can maintain a visual on their hitbox. The closer a Survivor is the more gauge he will gain and the further a Survivor is the less gauge he will rece


Hillbilly provides a very "basic" playstyle compared to the other killers found in Dead by Daylight's roster. Even though his toolkit is not very complicated or mechanically "difficult" to learn and master it is one of the most powerful and deadly among any kil


In the lore of Dead By Daylight Beginner Guide by Daylight , the Entity is an "almighty malevolent being" that captures Survivors and Killers, traps them in Trial Grounds, and forces them to go through endeavors that allows it to feed on their emotions until it can consume the entire world. These "trials" are what play out in-game, as the Survivor characters are tasked with starting generators around the arena to open exits before being sacrificed to the Entity. In order to do so, Killer players must incapacitate their prey, carry them to hooks, and leave them there to be taken. Killer perks exist in service of these goals by facilitating the discovery of Survivors or making it easier to incapacitate them, as all four Survivors must be sacrificed for the Killer to


Finally, it is important to use abilities that synergize well with Hillbilly's ability. Teachable perks like Barbeque and Chili play well into Hillbilly's hand and make him a quick and versatile threat for even the most slippery Survivors. Barbeque being one of the best perks for Hillbilly as it allows the Killer to see any enemy in range of the Killer after hooking a Survivor. This essentially turns Hillbilly from a chainsaw-wielding fiend into a missile locked onto a specific target. Provided his incredible speed and one hit kill potent

Playing Hillbilly is not a rather difficult task. His relative ease of use is why he is considered to be one of the strongest Killers in the game. With an arsenal of seemingly simple tools that can be extraordinarily deadly in the right hands. A good Hillbilly will mold this seemingly simple arsenal and optimize it until the character is a killing machine. So being creative with the "vanilla" killer will turn even a novice player into a high caliber killer in Dead by Dayli


As you level up your Evil Within gauge Michael goes through three levels of Evil Within. The first provides Michael with an undetectable effect which limits his terror radius completely. When you upgrade to Evil Within tier-two Michael gains access to increased vaulting speed. However, if Michael Myers gets into Evil Within tier-three the character gains access to an increased lunge range and an instant down knife attack. Allowing Myers to down any Survivor with a single attack. Making the tedious road to get to Evil Within tier-three worth the time investm


Finding success with Michael Myers is about being patient with the character. He is not as aggressive as a Killer as some of the other roster members are, but when you acquire enough Evil Within gauge, he becomes a steam roller, killing everyone in his path. So simply put, stay patient and smart, use as much time as you can get to level up your Evil Within gauge, and then enjoy the unleashed potential of Michael Meyers. He is a Killer with a high skill ceiling but he is incredibly rewarding for players willing to put the time in with his toolkit. So take your time and be wise with Michael Meyers and before you know it you will be taking out Survivors in no t


The primary downside to this ability is that, if the Hillbilly runs into an environmental hazard, then the character will be left in a stunned state for a few seconds. So the move does grant the Killer an incredible boost of speed, it is not as brainless of an attack as it sounds. A smart Hillbilly player will learn the intricacies of the charge and learn to navigate the rapid Killer with clinical precis


These themes are what carry into Dead by Daylight , where Pyramid Head is called "The Executioner" and serves as a judge for every Survivor — including Cheryl, or Heather Mason from Silent Hill 3 . According to Richard, "The first three Silent Hill games were mind-blowing and always in the back of my mind ... It just made sense for me to pick elements, the most iconic things, from each of the titles and make a big Silent Hill package." While Midwich Elementary School is a recreation of its PlayStation 1 iteration, Pyramid Head's model is similarly based on his PlayStation 2 origins, recreated with modern technology — though the monster has appeared in more recent iterations as a sort of mascot for the ser
