The Spirit's terror radius incorrectly fades out from her husk while she is phasing

When the Spirit begins a phase walk, her husk normally retains her terror radius until the husk disappears (when she stops phasing). I'm not sure what patch this broke in, but for a while now the husk's terror radius has begun to gradually fade out and become smaller until being reduced to nothing (very similar to how undetectable works, but without actually being undetectable) while the Spirit is still phasing, instead of remaining static during the phase walk like it used to. The husk's red stain also was doing this for a few patches but got fixed at some point, however the terror radius is still bugged.

To reproduce:

  1. Load into a match with Spirit and a survivor to test, no perks/addons needed
  2. Have the survivor stand near the Spirit before she begins phasing
  3. Have the Spirit begin phasing, doesn't matter where she phases to
  4. From the survivor POV, the husk's terror radius will gradually fade out over time/become smaller (and eventually disappear completely) while the Spirit is still in phase walk and while the husk is still there.

Here is a video of the issue, the first clip is with no addons, the second clip is with Yakuyoke Amulet for a super-long phase walk so you can see the terror radius eventually disappears entirely even at close range to the husk.

The correct behavior is that it should be keeping a 24 meter terror radius for the entire duration of the phase walk, then disappearing immediately when the husk disappears.

    @sizzlingmario4 can you post this on the post’s description? :


    “when in phase-walk and within a certain range of a survivor, sounds don’t fluctuate in intensity / directionality meaning the audio becomes monaural. 

    Can you please look into this? I think it affects both consoles and pc.

    Also, while you’re at it, can you please look into fixing Spirit’s walking animations? They’ve been bugged since last year’s May or April”


    They closed my post for some reason -_-

    It's true, her husk makes sounds but she doesn't.

    I understand! We will check in about it. I may not have an ETA or update when I return, but rest assured we will make sure this is being monitored and under review.

    This bug post is referring to how the husk functions in terms of how its Terror Radius SHOULD affect TR-related perks.

    It normally would retain the heartbeat and the auditory TR ( for survs ) but it hasn’t been functioning the way it’s supposed to and just emits no terror radius at all.

    The other one affects Spirit only ( the moans/wails of Husk normally only heard by Survs , not Spirit, which is really annoying lol

    Hello, just wanted to follow up that this bug report is about audio occlusion. If unrelated to audio occlusion, please look for an existing bug report about an issue, or create a new one if you cannot locate it. Multiple bug reports per post can be confusing and make them harder to track. Thank you!
