I understand the whole designing perks so people aren't encouraged to be selfish with them - I understand the thinking behind that, but this just seems like a worse version of what it used to be, which seems a step backwards. If this is where BHVR want to take Wake Up, why not give it a secondary effect that gives it value…

And I 100% agree with you - I rarely tunnel and camp my survivors out and win a lot of my games, however many killers go to strategy is tunnelling because it is the most effective thing to do. I think it's entirely possible they can encourage chasing a different survivor and discourage going after the same survivor who's…

I don't particularly agree that camping and tunneling is some of the reason DBD is successful compared to other asyms - maybe it's not what was meant in the initial point raised. I think the main point is that DBD is a game of push and pull and being able to eliminate a survivor from the match is the PART that makes it…

Okay - if you purchased it from the shrine (which if you have it on Dwight, Claudette, etc. would make sense), Tier 1 should be available in Lara's perks if you look for it. If you don't have lithe at all on Lara but you do on other characters and Feng is locked you may need to contact support to find out why you have a…

Did you initially have Lithe unlocked via the shrine rather than purchasing Feng?

They changed the way perks unlock a while back to make progression maintainable in the long run. Now, rather than unlocking teachables via the bloodweb nodes, you unlock teachables by prestiging the character at P1, P2, and P3, which unlocks them at T1, T2 and T3 respectively. For example, if you want Lithe on Lara, you…

They're handing them out in batches - I got mine this morning, hopefully you've had yours by now? If not, hopefully soon.

You make a support ticket here https://support.deadbydaylight.com/hc/en-us/requests/new?ticket_form_id=360000942011 Choose Dead By Daylight and 'Reporting a Player' option and fill in the details. Reporting them in-game first is mandatory though, so hopefully you've already done that.

I'm in agreement with this. Even if queues in 2v8 are incredibly long, I'd rather be against and with human team-mates than not. I understand this is there to ease mega long queue times (particularly 2v8), but I feel like that just lessens the experience.

I think it means if they're close to each other rather than removing the mechanic entirely, so if it's within striking distance of a survivor when it's approaching a window, the guards will now prioritize hitting the survivor rather than reaching the window first.

It currently only progresses that challenge by 1. It used to count 2 towards that challenge, but at some point they either changed it or bugged it.

Pain res won't notify the killer which gen got blown up even if survivors are on it. They'll hear the scream - but that's it. It targets the highest progressed unblocked generator regardless of how many survivors are on it.

Mandy stated it should be this week here

Stating that you're not saying their opinion doesn't matter, and then later on saying they shouldn't be listened to isn't making sense to me - sorry. As someone else in this thread has already said, this isn't 'misinformation' - this is people having an opinion on killer design and how balanced or enjoyable they find it to…

I completely disagree that people's opinions don't matter just because they're not 'High MMR' when it comes to balancing or design. No game should be purely balanced around the top skilled people. In an ideal world, this game should be balanced and perks/powers designed so that there is enough depth that highly skilled…

Probably a crash/server disconnect. There's been some server issues recently, particularly in the Bone Chill event.

No - Pentimento can only activate once per cleansed totem (so a max of 5). If a survivor cleanses your Pentimento, you have to activate it on a separate cleansed totem.

Survivor: Hatches count for adepts, though I've heard inconsistent reports they can sometimes not work. I did Taurie's via the hatch though and it worked fine. You can bring any add-ns/offerings. Killer: Bleeding out the survivors WILL NOT count. Even one. Mori the survivors should count, though similar to hatch I've heard…

I don't think they should change how totems have worked since their introduction just because an overbuffed perk now exists. Nerf Thrill back to an acceptable level, and it'll be fine. Your suggestion nerfs totems for killers and hex builds across the board and, if anything, makes Thrill even more necessary for builds that…

No, you won't get compensation for owning part of the chapter then buying the chapter itself.

They released mistakenly as purchaseable with iri shards. The unique cosmetics are meant to be Auric Cell only for 4 weeks, then they'll be available to purchase with Iri Shard after 4 weeks have passed.

No - it's just a background they've used for the main menu chapter. There isn't a new swamp map. The new Ormond Map is coming with the Bone Chill event December 12th.

Looks like they've accidentally put 'days' rather than hours. It's counting down by the hour for me - so doesn't look like it unfortunately.

If this was just a one off and you don't do it consistently, you're not going to get banned for an isolated incident. It happens - they understand that, and the game gave you a small matchmaking ban for that reason. So long as you're not doing it frequently, then you'll be fine.

It's not a cheat. They added a finisher mori back in the last mid-chapter which allows the killer to mori (kill by hand) the last survivor in the match at basekit. In 2v8, this rule is the same. If you're the last survivor remaining in the trial, one of the two killers can mori the last survivor.

You can use it multiple times per trial. If the killer removes your illusion, the perk will deactivate and it'll go dark, and you can start charging it again.

Ah apologies, I misread. The only thing left I can really possibly suggest is remove every file related to Dead By Daylight from your PC and do a complete fresh install (if you haven't already) rather than just uninstall it from steam. Could be that even when uninstalling, it's leaving behind a corrupt file that's not…

They turn it off in certain circumstances, like if maps are boosted. They've potentially turned it off for 2v8, but that's just me guessing. As others have mentioned though, variants are their own map in the system. You can, for example, get Badham multiple times in a row. I got it 3 times in a row once because I went to…

Tried verifying your files on steam? (If that's what platform you're on) Also have you tried changing Lara's cosmetics from the one you're using to something else and seeing if that still crashes the game?

Your second point is why people are saying this makes Deliverence better, and typically people are referring more to competitive settings where there's rules to limit how many people can run Deliverence in a team (which is 1 unless I'm mistaken). I wouldn't be surprised if they ban this perk in those competitive rulesets…

In terms of fun - probably Leon. Flashbang is a pretty fun perk overall and can be quite uncounterable if setup correctly for flashbang saves. Bite the Bullet can also be used for some pretty memey (albeit unreliable) mid chase healing builds where the killer can't hear where you are mid chase and lose you. Jill has got a…

You can try verifying your steam files and seeing if that helps: https://help.steampowered.com/en/faqs/view/0C48-FCBD-DA71-93EB

Do you get any form of error? Which platform is this?

Healing others? Healing yourself? Stopping survivors from healing? If it's healing yourself - you can probably get away with just bringing a medkit with some surgical suture and a self adherent wrap. If you want perks for healing yourself though: Resurgence - Jill Valentine. Been buffed to 70%, and fewer killers are…

They bring back some unique rift outfits a year after the rift, but not always. It'll probably come back at some point, but I couldn't tell you when. There's no hard and fast rule/schedule for when rift outfits come to the store unfortunately.

Hard to say without seeing the entire match but it looks like a bug to me. Even though the UI and strangely the entity claws are showing as if you're in stage 2, you're also able to attempt unhooking and your survivor model is hanging as if it's in stage 1. Leads me to believe it's a bug, rather than someone intentionally…

I can't say 100% until I check this myself, but I think you get fewer technically, since you don't earn the hook score event, just the kill one. I haven't noticed any new score event that compensates for the lack of hooking them. If it is fewer, it's about a 500 -ish bloodpoint difference.

No, Wake Up has never woken you up from Freddy's power. You're thinking of Adrenaline, but they changed it so it wouldn't in a previous patch. I will be very surprised if they nerf Wake Up - it's usage rate isn't that high, and barely anyone thinks the effect is worth bringing since it's sacrificing a perk slot for an…

He can't do it through solid walls or high objects. He can do it over objects he has line of sight to though, which is hard to visualize, but typically things that are about shoulder-ish height on a male survivor and almost head height on a female one. These can be incredibly small gaps in loop objects, so if you see him…

it’s probably to take into account the winter holidays. They now release new tomes with new mid chapters and the next ones not until late january judging by previous years, so it looks about right to me.

This just happened to me too. I viewed a Tome Audio Entry for House of Arkham on the latest page, and my audio disappeared. If I then tried to exit to the main menu, my game froze and wouldn't exit without a killing the process via task manager. Logs attached:

It's the latter:

They haven't made it harder, no - if anything they've made it easier. You can't lose pips anymore. How well you play a match is still effective in you earning Iridescent Emblems and therefore pipping up faster - that said, certain killers struggle more with certain emblems and being TOO effective can make certain emblems a…

I just saw Swamp was re-enabled - has it been re-enabled a day early by accident?

Ah I see - can you complete them again and see if that fixes it? Not something I've had happen to me strangely.

I'm unclear what your video is showing, can you elaborate? You complete the Yui challenge and it completes. The 'Deadly Race' one you're missing 4 seconds from it so it's not complete yet.

If you're reporting something in the text chat, it's normally sufficient enough just to report them in-game. That said, if it's ongoing harassment or some form of dox threat, and you can provide additional context, then you can optionally create a support ticket. More info here:…

It looks like a blue-gray to me.

We don't have an answer for this yet, but I imagine it'll work exactly how it works for 1v4. If a survivor disconnects, they'll be replaced with a survivor bot, if a killer disconnects, the game ends since there aren't any bots to replace them.

Nothing the community can do to help you with this unfortunately, only support can deal with this.
