Is there a database with actual addon information??
Considerably this and moderately that is a total waste of space. I need to know the actual information.
Does any place have this information?? Other than finding random Youtubes and hoping that someone made an up-to-date video on the particular Killer I'm looking into?

Try the dbd Wiki. They're pretty good on that front

I already have this bookmarked, but it doesn't have addon information.

The wiki is pretty good, it has most of the game's info and is typically up to date.
dbd.gg has everything pulled from game files so it has extra info, but it's not live to the general public until the last couple features are finished.
What info are you looking for, exactly?

If you hover over the texts that say "Considerably", "Tremendously" etc., you should get the value to appear.

I didn't know that - although, if your screenshot is from just now, I know that percentage values were removed from addons, and were given flat values for simplicity. So meh :(

No the description has always been this simple, BHVR has been doing "Considerable" and such since the very beginning.
The %'s that the wiki provides by hovering over the text is their results from testing them.
If it was the official %'s then it would be part of the normal text.
BHVR very rarely turns a "Considerable" into a % in the text, but they have also never turned a % into a "Considerable".

No, I mean, I was under the impression that addons no longer give percentage values, and now give flat values instead. Like for example, instead of, "Increases range by 20%," it'll be, "Increases range by 4 meters."

Okay, and it seems that that is indeed applied on the Wiki. So, yes, you are correct!
Thanks guys, lol.

I'm sorry, but you're wrong. Those ARE the official percentages, the wiki datamines every single value these days, there's no testing involved.
It's also why the wiki changes descriptions a bunch, because most of the values don't make sense with the in-game description (i.e. time vs. speed).

Okay that's good to know, but wouldn't they still test them to make sure they're the correct values?
Cause if they're incorrect then the wiki could state that as well.

That doesn't work for me for some reason?

That doesn't make sense. The values are datamined from the very files the game itself uses, of course they're the correct ones, the game doesn't use any other.

funny thing is .. here some kids know all the perks and thier functions... better than school books

No i mean that some other things might influence said value.
0 -
And what makes you believe that?
0 -
Things seemingly unrelated to recent fixes sometimes tend to bug out after said fixes.
Could be at times that a value is correct, yet what you get is different due to other things.

Doesn't make a lot of sense and what you're saying here is completely unreasonable, you can't expect these guys to test values on the off-chance spaghetti code might make it not work.

The wiki is the best we got. Ill never understand why bhvr decided to use such cookie cutter sentences when no 2 tremendously mean the same thing. Its extremely misleading in a lot of cases too.

I'm not expecting them to, i'm assuming them to.
They've stated Add-ons not properly working on their pages before, and i don't see why they wouldn't have contributors test that out.
0 -
That's an unreasonable assumption then, imo. Those were addons that either didn't work at all or not to the full extent, but that changed nothing about the value that they were coded to have.
Let's assume the unlikely scenario in which an addon is supposed to have an effect of 40%, but is only half as effective for whatever reason. If the wiki were then to tell you that the addon has an effect of 20%, that would be wrong information, 'cause that's not the coded value, it's the result of a bug or unintended behavior.
From what I can tell, the wiki only ever goes by what is coded, which is the reason they have changed a bunch of descriptions around, as I've previously said. The wiki doesn't adjust the value, they adjust the description to fit the value.
0 -
No i didn't mean things would adjust the value.
I simply mean that they tell you that the presented value is wrong within the game itself as a bug or whatever is messing up the Add-on.
