Dead by Daylight: the best builds to play as Eleven from Stranger Things

With the return of Stranger Things to Dead by Daylight, Eleven joins the survivor roster with a clear focus on information, stealth, and team support. Her arrival introduces new tactical options that can make a difference in both cooperative matches and solo play.

Below, her exclusive perks are detailed along with three builds that are performing well to make the most of her kit during matches.

Eleven’s exclusive perks

Eleven introduces three unique perks that offer clear strategic advantages:

• Extrasensory Perception
  Allows you to see the auras of key environmental elements, such as chests, totems, or nearby objectives, under certain conditions. It is useful for stealth, resource management, and exploration-focused builds.

• We See You
  Focused on team support. It allows the killer’s aura to be revealed to the rest of the survivors, improving coordination and helping to avoid ambushes.

• Teamwork
  Centers on efficient generator repair when playing alongside other survivors, strengthening duo play or small group coordination.

Build: Extrasensory Perception

This setup prioritizes information and stealth over direct confrontation. Thanks to aura reading, Eleven can move around the map more carefully and anticipate threats in advance.

By crouching for a few seconds, Extrasensory Perception reveals the auras of objects and players within a wide radius, allowing you to plan safer routes and avoid dangerous areas.

• Urban Evasion improves mobility while crouched, making it easier to use the main perk without being exposed.
• Alert adds extra information by showing the killer’s aura whenever they break a generator, pallet, or door.
• Sprint Burst works as a defensive option, giving you a quick escape if the killer discovers your position.

Build: Teamwork

This build is designed for players who want to win matches through generator pressure. It turns Eleven into a key piece for maximizing group repairs while reducing the risk of detection.

The perk combination allows generators to be completed at a much faster pace, forcing the killer to react constantly. It is especially effective in coordinated matches, but it can also work solo with good positioning.

• Teamwork reduces generator noise and grants extra repair speed when working with other survivors.
• Prove Thyself amplifies the effect by increasing the repair speed of everyone working with you.
• Déjà Vu helps identify the three closest generators to each other while providing a direct repair speed bonus.

Build: We See You

This configuration is designed to punish killers who rely on aura reading. It turns that advantage into shared information for the entire team.

By gaining tokens when the killer sees your aura, We See You allows you to reveal the killer’s position to all survivors for 15 seconds. It is an effective option for players who understand the metagame and can identify the killer’s perks early on.

• Nemesis ensures frequent activations by exchanging aura reading with the killer and adds bonuses to key actions.
• Belmont’s Eyes significantly extends the duration of any aura reading effect, further strengthening the informational value of the build.

With these three configurations, directly tied to Eleven’s exclusive perks, it is possible to make solid use of her arrival in Dead by Daylight and adapt to different playstyles during matches.
