Every Survivor Status Icon in DBD - Explained FAST! [Dead by Daylight Guide]

[@sh6rpshot]

Some of the survivor status icons took me FOREVER to figure out when I first started playing a couple years ago, so I thought this would be a great video to teach or remind people what each icon is :)

[@vc_strange]

Thanks sharp, I have friends that still struggle to realize that they are in the deep wound and they forget to mend 😂

[@KatsuKasuu]

I'm guilty with 400+ hours I only recently found out what the obsession icon looks like and that it moves when the obsession is being chased. I also found out how to spot console players(I wish I hadnt figured that out, console players are god awful)

[@Tavemanic]

What does oblivious and exposed do?

[@KatsuKasuu]

@@Tavemanic oblivious~ you cant see survivor auras? and exposed means youre a 1hit down, no matter what health state. NOED/Iron Maiden are 2 examples of perks that inflict this

[@Tavemanic]

@@KatsuKasuu ah, I never actually understood what it meant before

I love how you worded "being sent to the cage of atonement" looking like they're in the gulag

[@cx2ow]

Sharp you need to add a madness icon around your facecam on stream and depending on how much you rage the viewers can set it to tier 1 2 and 3

[@sh6rpshot]

Idk how that would ever work but that would be hilarious 😂

[@cx2ow]

Thank you :))

[@Protocol_1010]

Good video!, it really helps beginners and makes them know more about dbd!

[@DustTheOtter]

A little Extra: •The “Sacrificed” icon also applies to survivors killed by the Entity during the Endgame Collapse. •The “Dead” icon also applies to deaths from The Pig’s Reverse Bear Trap and The Executioner’s Final Judgement and Cage of Atonement.

[@sh6rpshot]

Very true!

[@benjithecorgi5714]

As someone who knows all these already, I hope that a beginner player finds this useful :) Good luck, any newbie killer main who reads this!!!

[@liqatana8829]

About dead icon, you forgot that not only blead outs and Moris trigger this icon, but also pig trap exploding, but still great video.

[@sh6rpshot]

Thank you! And you’re right :)

[@johnnyblaze8030]

This is insane the amount of useful info in such a short period of time. Thank you🙏🙏

[@sh6rpshot]

I’m glad you enjoyed!!!

[@jollythecool]

1:30 the reason while it’s called Mad/Madness is because just like your survivor going insane playing against the Doctor and constantly revealing your location to the doctor every 5 seconds it drives you insane!

[@n-7956]

I found a perfect counter. Get Jake Park to lv 30, and get all three of his teachable perks, (they are all really good so don't stop with just one). However the one you want is gentle spirit, which makes crows, and other animals not get alerted to your presence. But at lv 2 the perk makes it so that you don't scream, and thus are a perfect counter to the doctor, and many powerful killer perks, and hexes.

[@thephantomknyte5759]

@@n-7956 the problem with "calm spirit" is that unless the killer is doctor, using infectious fright, MYC, or are actually experienced enough to use crows, the perk is completely and utterly useless

[@1998slegacy]

question: in a previous game I've been the obsession and the spider leg thingies around me been red for at least idk 2/3 minutes? does that have any meaning or

[@gusakacaptainvalcon3449]

This video is really helpful but theres not an obsession every game there is a possibility of no obsession if there are no obsession based perks or add ons and another tip of advice for the mend timer is that it moves slow while running but as soon as you stop such as doing an action it speeds up and if you dont mend before it goes all the way down you get downed

[@sh6rpshot]

Since the new DS rework there will always be an obsession every match

[@gusakacaptainvalcon3449]

My mistake thanks for the info

[@sh6rpshot]

No worries!

[@tsusci]

I feel like I'm studying every time I watch these videos.

[@d1sturb1a98]

Can you do the effects the survivor gets, I don’t know what it’s called but it’s the thing that appears next to your perks whenever ( for example) another survivor has prove thyself

[@sh6rpshot]

Buffs and debuffs! I can look into that :)

[@Monicaa_]

Idk if this actually goes with the video, but BT also gives you the gold bar under your name. But either way, great video my dude, you helped me improved a lot on DBD

@@sh6rpshot huh! Interesting

[@jgill1846]

You've been very helpful! Especially with this particular video lol. I thought the deep wounds was an infection or something lol. Although, I do have a question. Why do you believe NoED is toxic? Perhaps it's because I come from Identity V but I find it pretty easy to deal with. Almost evey hunter in V runs the equivalent of it so I just find it annoying but not unwinnable if you learn to deal with it.

[@sh6rpshot]

I’m glad this vid helped you out! I personally think it’s pretty toxic because some killers just slap it on a random build to get kills at the end they didn’t really deserve getting. If you build an endgame build around NOED it isn’t toxic but when you struggled the entire match and use NOED to facecamp a kill it can be toxic!

[@whaz1641]

lol detention on every hunter what a pain

[@jgill1846]

@@sh6rpshot Ah I get it. Thank you for explaining!! I use NoED only because I suck @$$ and get t-bagged at the gate because of it. If I don't get t-bagged then I leave them be. It's only there for toxic people to be toxic back too and... unfortunately I get a lot of use out of it lol. I love being a baby killer ;) In V, Detention (NoED) is pivotal to any killer build expect if you're playing a specific Hunter (Joseph). So I'm used to always running it in order to guarantee last minute pressure. I could go on and on about forgetting which game I'm playing (either DBD or V) I'll try to keep that in mind. Thanks again^^

[@Pita_lifts]

Not sure exactly how it is currently but back when I played a lot there didn't have to be an obsession. The trial only had an obsession if a perk induced it like ds or play with your food. You said there always is one but I don't think so. Again I may be wrong haven't touched the game in a while

[@sh6rpshot]

They changed it after the new DS rework so that there will always be an obsession

[@Pita_lifts]

@@sh6rpshot oh alright, also great vid!

[@Pikwii]

I thought I’ve played matches without an obsession?

[@mylesphobia7552]

A slight error but an excusable one. You are correct, for the obsession icon only appears if there's anything introduced into the match that affects the chance of a survivor being an obsession. Though obsession perks are run by at least one player in a match like 80% of times

[@KaziaGD]

@@mylesphobia7552 they changed that after the DS nerf though, theres always gonna be an obsession no matter what. this change is fairly recent so that's probably why the person above thought that games without an obsession are still a thing

[@mylesphobia7552]

@@KaziaGD Oh? Definitely flew under the radar. And always having A obsession plays interesting mindgames as to IF there's anyone actually using an obsession perk. Fascinating.

Can you do Cenobite, or at least tell me what the LC's gage is for?

[@sh6rpshot]

I made a 2 minute guide on how to counter him, but the gauge around the survivor icons is for the chain hunt, whenever that fills up (kind of like freddy and his dream world) survivors get chains shot at them from the environment until someone picks up the LC!

[@lazernor]

@@sh6rpshot You didn't answer my question.

If you mean the LC icon, there is no gauge it just pops up instead of the chain Icon when a survivor picks it up

[@LOSTmyHOST]

You say it will.always be an obssesion every trial but thats not the case. If none of the surv use a perk to be the obssesion nor tje killer no one will be the obssesion that way the killer know he can tunnel lol

[@Dottol-]

[Comment Disregarded] This is a massive nit pick, unless this has been changed there is not necessarily an obsession every trial, if no one in the match has a perk which creates an obsession none will be created meaning that the killer can instantly deduce that no one has decisive strike
