Important

[p]All characters you have unlocked via Steam will be unlocked on the PTB, including any new character(s) introduced in this update.[/p][list]
[p]If DLC content has been unlocked via a platform other than Steam (including the in-game Store), this will not be automatically unlocked in the PTB. This content can be unlocked with the provided Auric Cells.[/p][/*]

[/*][*][p]When accessing a character's Bloodweb, the character will be automatically set to Level 50 and Prestige 3, unlocking their perks to Tier 3, as well as any items that would regularly be obtained during this process.[/p][/*][*][p]All offerings, items, and add-ons will be pre-loaded with 99 units available.[/p][/*][*][p]12,500 Auric Cells and 1 million Bloodpoints will be given on each new PTB version, available to explore Outfits and Characters in the Store.[/p][/*][/list]

Features

Tunneling Reduction Update

[p]Added Custom Match options to enable/disable this feature.[/p][/*]

[p]Unhook Protections Update[/p]

[p]Survivors that are unhooked or unhook themselves receive Unhook Protections for 30 seconds, which include:[/p][list]
[p]10% Haste status effect[/p][/*]
[p]Endurance status effect[/p][/*]
[p]Elusive status effect (new status effect that hides grunts of pain, aura, scratch marks, and pools of blood)[/p][/*]
[p]The Survivor makes no sounds (coughing, vomiting, etc.)[/p][/*]
[p]Immunity to AFK crows[/p][/*]

[/*][*][p]The Survivor will see the Killer's aura within 32 meters for 10 seconds[/p][/*][*][p]The Survivor is still susceptible to attacks and powers.[/p][/*][*][p]These effects linger for 3 seconds after being healed for a full health state.[/p][/*][*][p]These effects are lost when performing a Conspicuous Action.[/p][/*][*][p]These effects are disabled when all generators are completed, except for the 10% Haste and Endurance status effects, which will only last 10 seconds.[/p][/*][/list][p]Dev note: We've reduced the Killer aura reveal duration to limit a Survivor's ability to plan aggressive saves while under the effects of Unhook Protections. Additionally, we've removed the No Collision effect from the Unhook Protections to prevent Survivors from phasing ahead of the Killer to use their Unhook Protections aggressively. We will be closely monitoring these during the PTB and look forward to the feedback![/p][p]Unique Hook Bonuses[/p]

[p]When hooking a Survivor that is different than the last hooked Survivor, the Killer gains the following:[/p][list]
[p]Bloodlust (Tier 1) for 15 seconds[/p][list]
[p]This bonus is reset when entering a chase[/p][/*]
[p]This bonus is disabled when all generators are completed.[/p][/*]

[/*][*][p]A 10% Bloodpoint multiplier on the match score at the end of the trial[/p][/*][/list][/*][/list][p]Dev note: In the previous PTB, the Killer bonuses were complex and had many layers, they also made Killer gameplay very linear: hook → kick gen → down next survivor → rinse & and repeat. To retain player agency and the unexpected moments, we've simplified the bonuses to only one: gaining Bloodlust. Why Bloodlust? Because Haste stacked with Killer powers, which made stronger killers even stronger, widening the gap between them and weaker killers. Reusing Bloodlust means that Killers who use their power (Nurse, Ghoul, etc.) will lose the bonus, while Killers who are typically use their Basic Attack more, will keep it for the full duration. We've also removed the penalties from the previous PTB in the spirit of keeping player choice an important factor in how the game unfolds.[/p][p]Perks[/p][p]The following perks have been updated. See the Perk Updates sections below for more details:[/p]

[p]Killer: Furtive Chase[/p][/*]
[p]Survivor: Babysitter, Borrowed Time, Breakdown, Off the Record, Wicked[/p][/*]

Slugging Reduction Update

[p]Self-Recovery[/p]

[p]After being downed by the Killer, the Resolve Bar appears.[/p][/*]
[p]The Resolve Bar takes 120 seconds to fill. Progress does not reset between downs.[/p][/*]
[p]The Resolve Bar fills 33% faster for each additional Survivor currently in the Dying State.[/p][/*]
[p]Once the Resolve Bar is full, the Survivor gains the ability to pick themselves up from the Dying State for the rest of the match. (Note: The Survivor must fully recover each time.)[/p][/*]
[p]Added a custom game setting to disable this feature.[/p][/*]

[p]Dev note: To better target the extreme cases, we've increased the base time taken to fill the Resolve Bar and added a stacking speed bonus for each additional Survivor in the Dying State. This will make the mechanic more lenient in matches with little to no slugging, and cause it to kick in sooner in matches with a lot of slugging.[/p][p]Dying State[/p]

[p]Crawling speed increases over time when left in the Dying State, from 0.7m/s to 1.05m/s.[/p][/*]

[p]Dev note: The ability to recover while crawling in the previous PTB made crawling away always the right choice. This made it difficult for the Killer to find and hook Survivors who were only slugged briefly. We've removed this from the base kit so Survivors must choose between staying still and recovering, or crawling away so the Killer cannot find them.[/p][p]Perks[/p][p]The following perk has been updated. See the Perk Updates sections below for more details:[/p]

[p]Survivor: Tenacity[/p][/*]

Hook Improvements

[p]Quality of Life[/p]

[p]The Resolve Bar is now visible to other Survivors while hooked.[/p][/*]

[p]Dev note: To help bridge the information gap between players using voice chat and those who aren't, we've added the Resolve Bar to the HUD. This will help Survivors determine if the Killer is camping and plan their next move accordingly.[/p][p]Balance[/p]

[p]The Anti-Facecamp meter now fills faster based on how long the Killer stays near the hook:[/p][list]
[p]0-10 seconds: 1x speed[/p][/*]
[p]10-20 seconds: 2x speed[/p][/*]
[p]>20 seconds: 4x speed[/p][/*]
[p]Note: This multiplier only accumulates when the Killer is considered camping (the meter is gaining progress). The multiplier resets when the Survivor is unhooked.[/p][/*]

[/*][*][p]Decreased the base fill rate of the Anti-Facecamp meter by roughly 50% to compensate.[/p][/*][*][p]Increased the range of the Anti-Facecamp zone to 20 meters (was 16).[/p][/*][*][p]Hooking a Survivor now applies a 7 second grace period to all hooked Survivors (was only the last hooked Survivor).[/p][/*][/list][p]Dev note: To make the Anti-Facecamp mechanic fairer to both sides, we've reduced the base fill rate and added the time the Killer remains near the hook as a modifier. This gives Killers who are not camping more freedom to pass by a hook (particularly in cramped spaces like hallways) without worrying about the meter filling and giving the Survivor a free escape. This also means that Survivors who are being camped for extended periods gain the ability to unhook themselves slightly earlier.[/p]

AFK Crows

[p]Decreased the time for crows to appear to 80/100/120 seconds (was 120/140/190)[/p][/*]

[p]Dev note: Following the release of the updated AFK crow system, we increased the time it took to gain crows. This was much too generous, allowing for Survivors to avoid crows too easily. We're dialing back the values a little bit to a middle ground between the original values and the live values.[/p]

Content

Killer updates

[p]The Shape[/p]

[p]Slaughtering Strike's camera controls are now identical to regular camera controls.[/p][/*]

[p]The Cenobite[/p]

[p]Survivors with the Endurance status effect cannot be restrained by a Possessed Chain.[/p][/*]

[p]Dev note: The ability to bind Survivors who were just unhooked and under the Endurance status effect could feel quite oppressive. This change aims to make the Possessed Chain less effective at targeting recently Unhooked Survivors.[/p][p]The Skull Merchant[/p]

[p]Increased the Drone Rotation speed to 105 degrees/second. (was 95 degrees/second)[/p][/*]
[p]Increased the Hindered status effect from getting scanned to 10%. (was 8%)[/p][/*]
[p]Decreased the Deploy Drone cooldown to 7 seconds. (was 10 seconds)[/p][/*]
[p]Decreased the Undetectable duration after deploying a Drone to 6 seconds. (was 8 seconds)[/p][/*]
[p]Removed the fast vault immunity to Scan Lines[/p][/*]
[p]For every 2.5 seconds spent standing underneath a Drone, the Survivor gains 1 Lock On. (was instant)[/p][/*]
[p]Decreased Killer detection range for the Drone. (now only rises when colliding directly with Skull Merchant)[/p][/*]

[p]Dev note: Skull Merchant has dropped fairly significantly in terms of Kill Rate and lethality. These buffs aim to make her drones a bigger threat and bring up her a little bit. Additionally, we've decreased the cooldown to deploying drones, and consequently decreased the duration of Undetectable to keep some downtime between her Undetectable status effect. When standing underneath a Drone, Survivors would get instant Lock On, which felt like a bug whenever it happened. The gradual increase of Lock On will feel more natural and provide feedback to the Survivor that something bad is happening to them. Lastly, we reduced the Drone's sensitivity to their mistress, to make sure they are always ready to scan Survivors during chases in tight spaces and don't ascend unintendly.[/p][p]Killer addon updates[/p]

[p]Original Pain (Cenobite): When a Survivor breaks free from a Possessed Chain, reveal their aura for 8 seconds. (Rework)[/p][/*]
[p]Soma Family Photo (Singularity): Slipstreaming a Survivor inflicts the Hindered status effect for 6 seconds. (was 3 seconds) Inflicts the Deep Wound status effect if the Survivor is injured. (Removed)[/p][/*]

[p]Dev note: Both of these addons were notorious for their ability to disable the Endurance Status Effect Survivors get when they are Unhooked. These changes aim to remove this ability to bypass the protection post-Unhook.[/p][p]Killer perk updates[/p]

[p]Furtive Chase: Whenever your Obsession is hooked, gain 1 token, up to 3/4/5. For each token, decrease your Terror Radius by 10%. When your Obsession is Unhooked, the Obsession transfers to the rescuer.[/p][/*]

[p]Dev note: With the Bloodlust bonus offered for Unique Hooks, the synergy with Furtive Chase was higher than we would have wanted. We've changed Furtive Chase to its previous iteration of affecting the Terror Radius, without the downsides that it had.[/p][p]Survivor perk updates[/p]

[p]Babysitter: After Unhooking a Survivor, see the Survivor and the Killer's aura for 20/25/30 seconds. (Rework)[/p][/*]
[p]Borrowed Time: Survivors you Unhook gain the ability to fully recover from the Dying State for the next 60/80/100 seconds. (Rework)[/p][/*]
[p]Breakdown: After you are Unhooked, the hook breaks for 90 seconds. (was 180 seconds) After you are Unhooked, increase the speed at which you are healed by 100% for 30/60/90 seconds. (Rework)[/p][/*]

[p]Off the Record: Removed the Endurance status effect. Increased active duration to 60/70/80 seconds. (was 30/35/40)[/p][/*]
[p]Wicked: Your self-unhook attempts in the basement always succeed. When you are Unhooked from the basement, gain 30/40/50% healing progress. Anytime you are Unhooked, suppress the Loud Noise notification.[/p][/*]

[p]Dev note: The Survivor perks listed above are all related to Unhook gameplay. We saw an opportunity to update them to make sure they complement the Unhook Protections and increase their value proposition.[/p]

[p]Conviction: Changed the perk to require specifically healing another Survivor to prevent infinite looping with Plot Twist.[/p][/*]
[p]Tenacity: Readded the ability to recover while crawling.[/p][/*]

[p]Survivor item addon updates[/p]

[p]Anti-Hemorrhagic Syringe: Removed the heal over time effect. Removes Exhaustion on use. (Rework) Consumes the med-kit on Secondary Action use.[/p][/*]
[p]Styptic Agent: Removed the Endurance status effect. No longer consumes the med-kit on Secondary Action use. Increases the efficiency when healing yourself by 15%. (Rework) [/p][/*]

[p]Dev note: These Med-kit addons have been very strong for a very long time, extending chases that would have ended much sooner. We're making these changes to dial back the strength of med-kits when paired with these addons.[/p]

Killer Score Events

[p]Chase Start[/p][list]
[p]Increased Bloodpoint amount to 500 (was 400)[/p][/*]

[/*][*][p]Hooking Survivor[/p]

[p]Increased Bloodpoint amount to 750 (was 500)[/p][/*]

[/*][*][p]Survivor Sacrifice Success[/p]

[p]Increased Bloodpoint amount to 500 (was 200)[/p][/*]

[/*][/list][p]Dev note: With all the changes coming to the Killer role alongside the Tunneling Reduction and Slugging Reduction updates, we thought it was the right time to raise a few Score Events to encourage Killers to start chases and spread first Hooks at the start of a match.[/p][p][/p]
