Treasure Hunter
Find and use the best items in the chests for massive value.
The build
These four perks work together as a item survivor setup. Each slot has a job; together they form a closed loop.

Ace ViscontiWhy it works
Ace in the Hole (Ace Visconti) makes items found in chests start with an add-on attached, and they'll keep their add-on when you use them, even if you get hit. Moment of Glory (Trevor Belmont) makes the next chest you open spawn a lit candle that reveals the Killer's aura for 4/5/6 seconds - 30 seconds of aura reading! Appraisal (Elodie Rakoto) lets you search two chests at once, with the second one starting automatically. Plunderer's Instinct reveals the auras of chests within 8/12/16 meters. The result: you find a good item early, get a free add-on, and the team gets info from every chest you open.

Patch notes
Targeted at patch 10.0.0 (released 16 June 2026). The Slasher (Jason Voorhees) and his three launch perks appear in this build. We refresh this page after every major balance patch - if a perk has been nerfed or buffed since 10.0.0, the "Why it works" section is the first place we update.
