Question about buying characters

Hey guys. Am brand new to this game so forgive me upfront if this is an obvious answer.

I wanted to buy some characters or skins (not sure which they are preferred to be called) but wanted to make sure of something. If you buy a character or a killer: do the other players or your friends have to have that same character to play together?

  • You can play with/against anyone, in public as well as private matches, they don’t have to own the same character.

    • Okay thanks, that is what I was wondering.

      One related question though. Am assuming that some of the killers play or give different bonuses (maybe that’s the wrong word). Are there any ones (killers specifically) that people avoid playing with online or does that matter?

      • All characters come with three perks (teachables) that can be unlocked for other characters when prestiging them (after level 50). Killers also have a unique powers.

        Indeed some killers are less popular, right now one of the most hated ones is Skull Merchant. She was highly problematic and already got a rework but still most people don’t like her. Knight is another killer who doesn’t get much love.

        Other than those, there are always people who like or don’t like to play against certain killers. Often it’s more a matter of how they are played and in some cases how good they are - a top tier Nurse or Blight can be miserable to play against, but I find a „normal“ Blight pretty fun face. Same for Nurse though a „decent“ Nurse is tough to find. Most are either bad and you can run circles around them, or Godlike.
