Dead by Daylight Update 3.07 – Game Writer’s Patch Notes
Killer Adjustments – The Blight
- In this update, we have made some adjustments to The Blight. These adjustments aim to provide a more balanced gameplay experience for both the Killer and Survivors.
Add-Ons – Iridescent Blight Tag
- We have implemented some changes to the Iridescent Blight Tag add-on for The Blight. Rush, the Blight’s special ability, can no longer be performed more than three times. This new functionality limits the number of Rushes the Killer can execute, promoting a fairer gameplay experience.
- Furthermore, we have increased the maximum Rush look angle by 20 degrees and boosted the Rush speed by 20%. These adjustments increase the Blight’s mobility and enhance their ability to traverse the map effectively.
Killer Adjustments – The Hillbilly
- In this update, we have made several adjustments to The Hillbilly to improve their gameplay experience and overall viability.
- Decreased Chainsaw miss cooldown movement speed from 2.3 m/s to 1.84 m/s. This adjustment allows The Hillbilly to recover from missed Chainsaw hits at a faster rate, reducing vulnerability and increasing their potential to land successful attacks.
- Increased Initial Turn rate adjustment duration from 0.75 seconds to 1 second. This adjustment provides The Hillbilly with a longer duration to adjust their turn when initiating a Chainsaw sprint, making it easier to target Survivors accurately.
- Added an audio cue to indicate when The Hillbilly’s Chainsaw cooldown is over and ready to be used again. This audio cue helps the player track the status of their Chainsaw ability, ensuring they are aware of its availability during gameplay.
- Increased The Hillbilly’s Chainsaw volume from the Survivor’s perspective. This adjustment improves the audio experience for Survivors facing The Hillbilly, giving them clearer feedback regarding the presence and proximity of the Chainsaw.
Add-Ons – Greased Throttle & The Thompson’s Mix
- We have made adjustments to two add-ons for The Hillbilly, Greased Throttle, and The Thompson’s Mix.
- Greased Throttle now decreases the recovery time after using the Chainsaw by 5%, down from 8%. This change provides a slight reduction in the Chainsaw’s downtime, allowing The Hillbilly to return to action faster.
- The Thompson’s Mix now decreases the recovery time after using the Chainsaw by 10%, down from 12%. This adjustment further decreases the time it takes for The Hillbilly to recover after executing a Chainsaw sprint, enabling a more dynamic and continuous gameplay experience.
Perk Adjustments – Champion of Light (Alan Wake)
- The Champion of Light perk, inspired by the game Alan Wake, has undergone some adjustments to enhance its effectiveness and versatility.
- Previously, this perk required the player to be holding a flashlight for its effects to be active. However, we have removed this requirement in the 3.07 update.
- Now, when shining a flashlight, the survivor has 50% Haste. Additionally, successfully blinding the Killer will also apply a 20% Hindered effect for 6 seconds. It’s important to note that this Hindered effect cannot be stacked, preventing overpowered combinations. Finally, this perk has an 80/70/60 second cooldown period after activation.
