MULTIPLE games, I have distortion, will have 1-2 tokens available for perk yet killer STILL sees my aura regardless if I’m in locker, on a second floor, across map. Several games now, killer has came straight to me if I’m last survivor or honestly just existing. I’m pretty good at avoiding killer and being stealthy, but my god, once I’m last survivor a targets pointing down on me saying “Hey! I’M HERE!”.

    Unless they changed something, and I'm asking if this is the case if anyone knows different, there is no aura reading perk that sees you in a locker. At least, unless some of the aura reading perks got this buff. Lockers won't protect you from killer instinct, and maybe some other location revealing mechanic I'm failing to remember as I type this (Doctor can't make you scream in a locker, that's still a thing) but unless the killer sees your aura as you get in a locker, or as you get out, they're not finding you in a locker because of aura reading…. again, unless they changed something, so someone please fill me in.

    I don't know how new you are to the game but if you go inside of a locker quickly, or exit quickly the killer gets the same noise notification they'd get for a failed skill check, or fast vaulting a window, so maybe that contributes? You may already be aware of that, but I'm just spit blalling here LOL.

    I'm only speaking on the "getting found in lockers with aura" thing, the distortion having stacks while having aura read, IDK what to tell you. If the token number doesn't go down, it means the killer isn't using any aura reading. So it has to be some other mechanic they are finding you with. Maybe they see/hear crows you've disturbed (there's a perk that will give noise notifications to killer if you disturb a crow). Could be multiple things tho.

    They probably saw the aura of you getting IN or OUT of the locker, it's not a hack or a perk or anything like that. Just the Killer using info from their perks. You can confirm this for yourself playing Killer with those perks.

    Killer instinct detection still works in lockers like a bird flying past your locker etc. But often times ive felt similar situations and was like "its gotta be wallhacks" because i go through every condition to activate an aura read on me and none of them happened yet they go straight to you weather you didnt move or hid in a locker etc. And id report just saying possible use of wallhacks. Its actualy turned out to be true they were caught hacking and banned on several occasions. The other perk most forget about is spies from the shadows, where birds make loud noise notifications when spooked within a certain range of the killer
