Your unmatched showmanship dazzles all.

When carrying a Survivor, Starstruck activates:

Survivors suffer from the Exposed Status Effect while in your Terror Radius.

  • The Status Effect lingers for 26/28/30 seconds after leaving your Terror Radius.

After hooking or dropping the carried Survivor, Starstruck deactivates:

  • The Status Effect persists for 26/28/30 seconds for any Survivor inside your Terror Radius at that moment.

Starstruck has a cool-down of 60 seconds once the Survivor is no longer being carried.


So I love this perk with a passion and think its a really nice addition to the game. It encourages me to leave the hook to look for exposed survivors and to actively choose where to hook survivors for the most benefit.

It's best used on killers with a 32m terror radius, since 32m is actually quite a far distance than most would think.

Some people might say that its useless because survivors won't actively body-block since they see they're exposed but that's just a side benefit.

It gives killers without 1 hit down mechanics a bit more lethality to their kit and punishes aggressive plays from survivors that you normally can't defend against.

I can't wait for more killers to start running it and making survivors feel fear even while healthy.

    M&A decreases your TR when not in a chase, but then Distressing increases by 26%. Wouldnt it make sense to get rid of M&A and use double calm add ons for huge TR?

    I don't like Starstruck on doctor tbh. Its okay for people in his TR, but having everybody exposed for 30s means nothing when he can't get across the map that quickly.

    Very good perk with Agitation on Deathslinger, Spirit, Nurse, Wraith etc. It's not common we get alternative perks to the usual information and slowdown meta perks on killer.
