The Deathslinger
A B-tier killer wielding The Redeemer.
The Deathslinger’s ingenuity affords him the ability to Reel in bounties with a unique invention—a heavily modified, hybrid rifle that replaces conventional ammunition with a razor-sharp spear affixed to a chain. THE REDEEMER Press and hold the Power button to aim down sights. Press the Attack button to shoot a spear that can lodge itself in a Survivor, allowing them to be Reeled in towards The Deathslinger against their will. Reel: While a Survivor is speared by The Redeemer, press and hold the Power button to Reel them in towards you. Survivors may struggle against the chain or use the environment to pressure the chain to break. Doing so will result in briefly stunning The Deathslinger as well as putting The Survivor in the injured state and applying the Deep Wound status effect. Using a basic attack while a Survivor is speared will break the chain without applying a penalty to either The Deathslinger or The Survivor. Successfully hitting a Survivor with a basic attack while they are speared and healthy will also apply the Deep Wound status effect. Reload: The Redeemer must be Reloaded after every shot, before it may be fired again. Press the Active Ability button to Reload The Redeemer.
When you hook a Survivor, Dead Man’s Switch activates. The first Survivor that stops repairing a generator causes The Entity to block it for 35 seconds. The affected generator is highlighted by a white aura. Dead Man’s Switch cannot reactivate while it is blocking a generator.
You’ve got an ear for well-oiled gears. After a survivor loses a health state by any means, Gearhead activates for 30 seconds. While Gearhead is active, every time a Survivor performs a good Skill Check while repairing, their aura is revealed to you for 8 seconds.
A Hex that lashes out upon its destruction. Those who cross you will be punished. Any Survivor interacting with a Dull Totem or a Hex Totem will suffer from the Oblivious status effect for 60 seconds. If any Hex Totem is removed, including this one, the auras of all Survivors are revealed for 20 seconds. Oblivious prevents Survivors from hearing or being affected by the Killer's Terror Radius.
