Bite By Night Survivor & Killer Tier List

The best killer and survivor in Bite By Night largely depends on playstyle. That said, this tier list will dive into the details on how reliable survivors are in a solo-carry and team situations while analyzing the overall utility and power of each killer. Here’s my Bite By Night Survivor and Killer tier list.

Bite By Night Survivor Tier List

All Survivor classes can be good in Bite by Night depending on your playstyle. That said, some work better for being a solo player trying to carry a less coordinated team while others offer more team utility if you’re playing with better players or a pre-made group. That’s why I ranked them in two ways so you have a better overview. In short, I would say the Security Guard offers the most balanced mix between the two scenarios capable of being good both solo and in a coordinated team. Let’s dive into individual ranking reasons below for all Survivor classes.

Survivors	Ranking Notes
Customer	Solo Carry: S-Tier • The most self-centered class that plays best by itself • The heal is a lot of self-sustain in a prolonged round • The Drink is great for escaping and looping the killer so you can reposition • Overall this is the most reliable selfish carry in a lobby with players who aren’t playing as a team Team Player: B-Tier • Pretty much the opposite • That said you have some utility with baiting the killer and then escaping with Drink • And the fact that you have Pizza heals means your Medic can heal other players like the Fighter
Medic	Solo Carry: A-Tier • Has decent carry potential due to self-heals to keep you going • That said it’s worse than Customer since you can’t escape the killer as well • But just healing other players means they can score a generator or bait the monster away as a distraction for you Team Player: S-Tier • The best team-based class in the game • You can bait the killer away from gens and then heal up after escaping • You can of course also heal other players thus prolonging how much time you have • Excellent with Fighter to keep him healthy as he deals with the killer
Security Guard	Solo Carry: A-Tier • Impressive solo carry potential since you can see the monster and gens with cams • This allows you to plan your route well for finishing the game • That said the escape potential is weaker than Customer since the taser needs to be charged and planned Team Player: A-Tier • Excellent team utility with revealing the killer • The taser is much better when used as a team tool by coordinating with other players like Fighters for maximum stuns • The taser is best used alongside a Fighter so they can stun the killer as you charge
Fighter	Solo Carry: B-Tier • Weak carry potential due to a lack of mobility and utility • You don’t want to be baiting the killer if you have an uncoordinated team • That’s why Fighter isn’t the best selfish solo carry • Still, you can pull of an escape with parry and stun in a pinch though the cooldowns are massive Team Player: A-Tier • Fighter is much better for team utility to coordinate stuns with other Fighters and Security Guards • If you have a reliable team to do gens you can bait the monster and stun so others escape • If you have a good Medic they’ll keep you healthy • Slightly worse team utility than SG • It’s better to stack at least 1 or 2 charges on Parries before stunning for optimal status debuffs

Bite by Night Killer Tier List

You should generally always play a killer that you find the most fun. This tier list just analyzes how reliable killers are with their kits against experienced players. Springtrap’s kit has a nice blend of overall utility and skillshots for clutch plays. That’s why I ranked it at the top. The other killers have certain elements that can situationally make them a bit less reliable than Springtrap so they’re in a lower tier. Let’s analyze them individually below.

Killers	Ranking Notes
Springtrap	S-Tier • An amazing mix of offense, crowd control and overall utility • The skillshot gives you an excellent range option for finishing off runners • The traps disable players from looping you since you can place them in tight chokepoints • The shout is great utility for finding players while the charge gives you some of the best mid-fight mobility • Incredibly well-balanced killer with a lot of strengths
Ennard	A-Tier • Disguising as other players and how well you pull it off is the make-or-break for Ennard • It’s slightly skill-based since experienced players can notice you’re a bit slower than usual but it’s really hard to spot • You can pull off amazing group attacks on people gathered around gens or otherwise catch a player unaware since your presence is muted • Even if you get figured out you still have Wirethings for scouting and pull for mobility • Overall a strong mechanic and tons of utility that’s just slightly less reliable than Springtrap against experienced players
Mimic	B-Tier • A lot of flexibility with different modes but none of them are particularly powerful • You have to combine them well to do what other killers do more easily IMO • Speed is low damage and has bad Stamina but has no lag on hits so it’s a great finisher (The leap sucks though due to wind-up) • Strength has no skills but can down in almost two hits allowing you to finish them off with Speed • Stealth mutes you for better approaches which is great (Security Guard still counters this with cams) • Overall you want to start with Strength and then finish off with Speed or Stealth with Stealth being the most reliable mode with the best moves

Crimson Desert is a single-player game but you don’t have to enjoy your adventures alone. While you can complete all the quests and content on your own, you can do so with your beloved pet. Obtaining your animal companion takes a bit of time when you begin your adventures, and there are two choices to consider.

But first, let’s find out how pets work in Crimson Desert.

Update: Added a table for all types of pets and their favorite food items (offers biggest boost to trust).

How pets work in Crimson Desert

Crimson Desert has a trust system that works between your character and animals. The trust mechanic begins at zero and goes up to 100. This system is universal for all pettable animals, which are two in the current version of the game.

• Cats
• Dogs

The process of getting a pet varies slightly based on your choice.

• If you want to pet a dog, walk up to the animal, and press the applicable button for the interaction prompt.
• If you want to pet a cat, pick it up by getting close to it. Then, select the carry prompt to pet the creature.

When you pet a creature, you gain +5 trust. You can gain up to 25 trust with an animal companion in a single day from this method.

Pets are immensely helpful when they’re active, as they help bring back the loot you get from defeated enemies. However, they will loot everything they can as there’s no filter available in the current build of Crimson Desert. However, it’s still beneficial to have them active; otherwise, you’ll be spending a lot more time getting different loot.

All pets and their favorite foods in Crimson Desert

The table below has a list of all the pettable animals I have found, along with their favorite food items.

Name	Type	Favorite Meat
Cat	Cat	Squid
Short-Haired Kitten	Cat	Small Gudgeon
Fat Cat	Cat	Sockeye Salmon
Long-Haired Cat	Cat	Mackerel
Kitten	Cat	Fish Fillet
Desert Cat	Cat	Egg
Slim Cat	Cat	Pond Loach
Short-Haired Cat	Cat	Egg
Saluki	Dog	Fine Meat
Pointy-Eared Bulldog	Dog	Egg
Shepherd	Dog	Bird Meat
Floppy-Eared Bulldog	Dog	Cheese
Boarhound Puppy	Dog	Lean Bird Meat
Husky	Dog	Bird Meat
Jindo	Dog	Sweet Potato
Greyhound	Dog	Fine Meat
Boarhound	Dog	Lean Bird Meat
Beagle	Dog	Sweet Potato

How to add more pets in Crimson Desert

The key to gaining a pet is to take your trust to 100. Once that’s achieved, hold the selection button and press the Claim option. This will register the dog/cat as your pet. You can have up to 30 pets for your adventure, but only one can be active at any given moment.

How to use food to gain trust in Crimson Desert

While playing with cats/dogs helps to gain trust, there’s a daily cap on that. A better way is to use food items. Feeding also helps to improve your trust with them, but there’s a daily cap as well.

• Tough Meat (Feed to a Dog for 10 trust)
• Fine Meat (Feed to a Dog for 35 trust)
• Bird Meat (Feed to a Cat for 10 trust)
• Fish (Feed to a Cat for 10 trust)
• Milk (Feed to a Cat for 10 trust)

Food items have a cap of three per day. In simple words, you can feed a creature at most three times in a given day. If you max out the daily caps, you’ll be able to gain a new pet every two days. The only exception to this is Fine Meat, which allows you to gain a new pet in a single day. However, you’ll have to spend coins at a vendor to get the item.
