Charges

MinusTheBillie

Several items have add-ons that increase charges. What does a charge equate to? Wondering how much these add-ons actually add.

Thanks, but it just lists the same details as in game. Example below. Adds 15 charges. Hoping to find out what a charge equates to in seconds of usage. 

1 charge = 1 second.
As simple as that.
A few details are also listed here https://deadbydaylight.gamepedia.com/Numbers_&_Statistics

Details are usually showed on the wiki, on each specific items, example :

one charge is one second of doing engine (or smth) without tool
for each charge there is toolbox descreases seconds it takes to make it

so 1 engine = 80 seconds without toolbox = 80 charges
with toolbox you will do 80 charges BUT in less seconds (depending on you speed modifier (moderately/considerably, etc)

so doing 80 charges with moderately will do it in 75 seconds and considerably in 72 seconds
because doing 1 charge with toolbox takes not 1 second but 0.97 seconds

• note: sorry, I'm too lazy to look at actual numbers. Those are made up

be careful not to waste your brown toolbox as it only has 80 charges so you have to stop before doing it completely...

here, actual numbers from wiki
Default +0 % 1.0 c/s 80 seconds
Slightly +10 % 1.1 c/s 72.72 seconds
Moderately +15 % 1.15 c/s 69.56 seconds
Considerably +20 % 1.2 c/s 66.67 seconds
Tremendously +25 % 1.25 c/s 64 seconds

addition from me: doing one charge with slightly would take 0.909 seconds, you can do the math from here

You might want to dig a bit deeper if you look for specific information on the Wiki. The overview pages listing all Add-ons, Perks, Offerings, etc. Only contain the same information as can be found in-game, otherwise the page would be too cluttered with information.

Every Unlockable has its own article (you can see that the name is a link as it's light blue) that usually contains additional and more detailed information. And if you're looking up information on an Add-on, it's also a good idea to look up the page about the Item it's associated with, that will usually provide additional information as well.

In this case, the article featuring all Toolboxes contains the information you were looking for: https://deadbydaylight.gamepedia.com/Toolboxes
