wraith build dbd

The Wraith uses his Wailing Bell to vanish and hunt silently. He catches survivors off guard with swift strikes, making them scramble to avoid his deadly attacks. As a master of hit-and-run tactics, he excels at keeping survivors injured and on edge.

This guide reviews the best wraith build in dbd, two other great alternative builds and his best add-ons.

Best Wraith Build 2024

Best Wraith Build 2024

This build turns Wraith into a chase monster. By using Shadow Dance add-ons that speed up pallet breaking and window vaulting, along with perks like Fire Up, Spirit Fury, Enduring, and Bamboozle, Wraith becomes highly effective at keeping pressure on survivors.

  • Fire Up (The Nightmare): This perk increases Wraith’s action speed, such as breaking pallets, vaulting, and damaging generators each time a generator is completed. As more generators are done, Wraith becomes progressively faster.
  • Spirit Fury (The Spirit): When Wraith breaks two pallets, Spirit Fury activates, causing the next time he is stunned by a pallet to break instantly. This perk helps Wraith deal with pallet loops more efficiently, reducing the survivors’ ability to prolong chases.
  • Enduring (The Hillbilly): This perk reduces the duration of stuns caused by pallets and other obstacles by 50%. It allows Wraith to quickly recover from being stunned, enabling him to stay on the chase without losing much ground.
  • Bamboozle (The Clown): When Wraith vaults through a window, Bamboozle blocks the window for 16 seconds. This forces survivors to find other routes or waste time finding and vaulting through another window.

High-Pressure Wraith Build

High-Pressure Wraith Build

In this build, we focus on maximizing Wraith’s mobility and disruption abilities using perks such as Pain Resonance and Pop Goes the Weasel.

The build ensures sustained pressure on generators and survivors. Windstorm and Shadow Dance also increase Wraith’s chase potential and map control, making it very effective for dominating matches.

  • Lethal Pursuer (The Nemesis): This reveals all survivors’ auras from the start. It’s great for planning your initial moves and finding survivors quickly.
  • Scourge Hook: Pain Resonance (The Artist): When a survivor reaches their first hook, this perk regresses 25% of the generator with the most progress. It’s ideal for slowing down generator repairs and spreading out survivor objectives.
  • Pop Goes the Weasel (The Clown): After hooking a survivor, this perk lets you regress the generator by 30% of its current progress. It’s excellent for maintaining pressure and disrupting survivor plans.
  • Sloppy Butcher (General Perk): Hits from Wraith cause survivors to bleed more, increasing the time they take to heal. This slows down survivor recovery and makes them prioritize healing over objectives.

Nothing is Safe Wraith Build

Nothing is Safe Wraith Build

This build is designed to pressure survivors by denying them safe zones and strategic advantages.

It punishes survivors heavily for cleansing totems (Haunted Grounds), limits their pallet usage (Blood Favor), blocks their escape routes after generator completions (Cruel Limits), and allows the killer to locate healing survivors quickly (Nurse’s Calling).

  • Hex: Haunted Ground (The Spirit): Causes two trapped Hex Totems to spawn. When cleansed, all survivors suffer from the Exposed status effect for 60 seconds. The remaining trapped Hex Totem becomes a Dull Totem if one is cleansed.
  • Hex: Blood Favor (The Blight): Injuring a survivor blocks all pallets within a 32-meter radius from being pulled down for 15 seconds.
  • Cruel Limits (The Demogorgon): Blocks all windows and vault locations for survivors for 30 seconds every time a generator is completed.
  • Nurse’s Calling (The Nurse): This perk reveals the aura of survivors healing or being healed within a 28-meter range.
