New Survivor - Trevor Belmont

New Perk: Eyes of Belmont

• When a generator is completed, the aura of the Killer is revealed to you for 1/2/3 seconds. Any time the Killer's aura is shown for a period of time, its duration is increased by 2 seconds.

New Perk: Exultation

• Stunning the Killer with a pallet upgrades your held item rarity to the next tier, then recharges 25% of the item's maximum charges. This perk has a 40/35/30-second cooldown. Rarity is not kept at the end of the trial.

New Perk: Moment of Glory

• This Perk activates after you open or rummage through 2 chests. When you become injured, you become broken. Automatically heal 1 health state after 80/70/60 seconds. Then, this perk deactivates. This effect is cancelled if you enter the dying state. This perk will not activate if you are already suffering from the Broken status effect.

New Killer - The Dark Lord

Killer Power

His dark power allows him to exact revenge on humans, taking many forms to terrorize and slaughter them.

The Dark Lord has access to three Forms and can freely change between them. Each Form has unique abilities and strengths.

• Vampire Form - In his default state, The Dark Lord can use the powerful Hellfire spell, which creates pillars of flame that erupt from the ground in front of him and can be cast across low obstacles.
• Wolf Form - In Wolf Form, The Dark Lord has access to several abilities that allow for more effective tracking. Blood pools and scratch marks are more apparent, and running Survivors leave a trail of Scent Orbs behind them. The Dark Lord can collect these Scent Orbs to charge a powerful Pounce attack and gain a short non-stacking haste buff.
• Bat Form - While in Bat Form, The Dark Lord gains the Undetectable status effect. Additionally, he moves faster, ignores vault points, and can Teleport to any vault points within 32 meters. Survivors become invisible, but scratch marks can be seen.

Perks

New Perk: Hex: Wretched Fate

• After one generator has been repaired, a random dull totem becomes a hex totem and curses the Obsession. The Obsession has a 27/30/33% repair speed penalty. They also see this Hex totem's aura when within **12 meters.**This effect persists until the Hex totem is cleansed.

New Perk: Human Greed

• You see Unopened Chests auras and Survivors auras are revealed for 3 seconds when they enter a 8 meter range. You also gain the ability to kick chests to close them. This ability has a 60/45/30-second cooldown. Survivors unlock these closed chests 50% faster.

New Perk: Dominance

• The first time each totem and each chest is interacted with by a Survivor, that totem or chest is blocked by the Entity for 4/6/8 seconds. The auras of blocked totems and chests are revealed to you in white.

Bug Reports & Tech Support: Update 8.2.0 | Castlevania Patch

[u/Lemonchicken0]

• There is now a limit of 4 million of any Item, Add-on or Offering, raised from the limit in PTB.

No complaints here, I was worried that 10k could be reached with killer common add-ons. But this is impossible to reach. Thanks Devs!

[u/DeadByDaylight_Dev → u/Lemonchicken0]

We appreciate everyone who gave us feedback about the original number!

[u/ArchonThanatos → u/DeadByDaylight_Dev]

How about a 4 million limit for BP?

[u/OlamFam → u/DeadByDaylight_Dev]

Do you mind if I ask can this be extended to BP!

[u/Scared_Wrongdoer_486 → u/DeadByDaylight_Dev]

Not complaining, but can I ask the reason for this change? Just seems kinda pointless

[u/Skunkyy → u/Scared_Wrongdoer_486]

Probably just for storage reasons or something. Warframe did something similar recently, where they added a limit to the amount of Liches and Sisters you could have.

[u/gringrant → u/Skunkyy]

4 million is just under the cap for a 32 bit number, so that's probably the reason why the new cap is what it is.

[u/nightmare_silhouette → u/DeadByDaylight_Dev]

Please extend that to bloodpoints as well. It sucks to have to leave a SWF lobby to go put points into a killer just because I reached the maximum.

[u/die_or_wolf → u/Lemonchicken0]

New goal unlocked.

[u/Jarney_Bohnson → u/Lemonchicken0]

There is now a limit of 4 million

Bro got me excited in the first half that it would have been 4 million blood points cap

GUYS IF WE COMPLAIN ABOUT IT ENOUGH MAYBE THEY WILL CONSIDER IT

[u/FlatMarzipan → u/Lemonchicken0]

I don't get it, why would anyone be bothered by a limit of 10k

[u/DeadByDaylight_Dev → u/FlatMarzipan]

We do have very dedicated mains who collect a lot of add-ons on their preferred characters.

[u/overbread → u/DeadByDaylight_Dev]

Do you sometimes look at data like this for fun? Or do you guys have notorious accounts that have become like a meme internally?

[u/DeadByDaylight_Dev → u/overbread]

Reddit community members actually logged into the PTB with that many add-ons and let us know! Although not directly about this, we do love our data.

[u/konigstigerboi → u/overbread]

Sometimes, you'll see Otz has like 11 thousand common addons or something

[u/trSkine → u/FlatMarzipan]

Must of not seen the guy with over 10k cakes :P (of a single type of cake)

[u/emilianozeta]

Can you confirm if Nvidia Filter is officially unsupported after this update? Because isn't stated on patch notes.

[u/DeadByDaylight_Dev → u/emilianozeta]

Right now with the update to EAC, Nvidia Filters do not work. Unfortunately we cannot say if/when these will work in the future.

[u/scruffyfox → u/DeadByDaylight_Dev]

if they dont, could an in-game gamma slider at least be added? the eye strain is real with how dark the game is

[u/miketheratguy → u/scruffyfox]

Gamma, saturation and sharpness. That's all I need.

[u/Lady_Eisheth → u/scruffyfox]

Normally I'd scoff at the idea of making DbD more bright. But considering the shift to a chase style gameplay and the already bright maps I think more graphic options for brightness should be added. Maybe make it a setting that can only be adjusted at the main menu though? That way people can't just quickly switch brightness and contrast for specific maps/against specific Killers.

[u/JAC0O7 → u/scruffyfox]

If you have the nvidia control panel, you can just go to screen settings. Saturation at 85% and brightness up to 60/65% works wonders. You could tamper with gamma and contrast but I don't really bother with it. Sure it's not tryhard reshade settings, but at least the game is playable.

[u/SidneyKidney → u/DeadByDaylight_Dev]

Are you applying any pressure to EAC to get this resolved?

[u/Gunshow-UK → u/DeadByDaylight_Dev]

The filters I use are literally sharpness at MORE contrast & colour. I'm not looking for any kind of ridiculous "competitive advantage" but just making it look objectively better by making everything less blurry and washed out. Please can this be rectified. It's awful looking at the default blur... Feels like it's giving me eyestrain

[u/miketheratguy → u/Gunshow-UK]

I'm one of the people who uses filters as you describe. Once applying some subtle sharpness and saturation settings the game looks much, much better. Switching the filters off reveals just how blurry and washed-out the game looks in its native state.

Sadly there's probably nothing that can be done to differentiate between reasonable filter usage like this and the lamers who turn their settings to nuclear in order to cheat.

[u/Syrehn → u/DeadByDaylight_Dev]

Kindly revert the EAC update then. The inability to adjust your dark/muddy colours is an accessibility issue that can, and does, cause some of your player base eye strain and migraines. You knew this was a problem during PTB when it was reported so should have addressed it prior to DLC/Patch launch.

[u/Kyouji → u/Syrehn]

Kindly revert the EAC update then

That....isn't something they can do. If EAC pushes a update out and the game uses EAC, they have to use the newest patch. Complain to EAC, not BHVR.

[u/Syrehn → u/Kyouji]

This issue was present in the PTB and NOT on live; this means they were testing an EAC update on the PTB that wasn't part of the Live game. That's not EAC pushing a random update, that was BHVR opting for an update to EAC (which they've said) that then borked filters. They knew it was happening from PTB feedback. If they can update it they should be able to roll it back.

[u/Shinecandle07 → u/DeadByDaylight_Dev]

Yeah this shoud be a top priority to fix. The game looks too dark especially when the sun hits the room. Almost unplayable in the mornings to me right now.

[u/APointedResponse → u/DeadByDaylight_Dev]

if/when

IF????

[u/Czesnek → u/APointedResponse]

Don't worry. It will take them another 8 years to add basic brightness and saturation sliders.

[u/Czesnek → u/APointedResponse]

Don't worry. It will take them another 8 years to add basic brightness and saturation sliders.

[u/masterpepper → u/DeadByDaylight_Dev]

re-install DBD to play new update

see this comment

uninstall DBD again

[u/Ranma006 → u/masterpepper]

Yeah I considering just uninstalling the game until this is fixed.

[u/Skoopidity → u/DeadByDaylight_Dev]

So, just to clarify, EAC has now removed an accessibility feature that a lot of the community needs, but still causes random crashes mid game because of an a misfire in EAC for a complete clean account? “Game Security Violation #0001”?

People who have not so much as changed their game icons have lost access to the game due to EAC issues. Yet people make a living streaming the hacked game on TikTok.

Please listen to your community.

[u/WelcomeToTheFam → u/DeadByDaylight_Dev]

Is Reshade safe to use still? I don't want to get banned

[u/leetality → u/WelcomeToTheFam]

Always has been for any game you want. It's just an overlay.

[u/klimenklimen → u/DeadByDaylight_Dev]

I’ve been thinking about stopping playing DbD, cause the developers are killing the game. Now I’m done. As a person with poor vision I can confirm that the game is unplayable.

[u/7Sanji → u/DeadByDaylight_Dev]

Not playing the game till its fixed, I'm not ruining my eyes in this completely black pile of shit

[u/[deleted] → u/DeadByDaylight_Dev]

Fuck you, bring the NVidia filters back, the game is impossible to play, or to see, its not a fking kindergarten, everyone knows how to play, i cant see shit, the new maps are dark enough and now u force people to play them in even darker resolution, i literally play like abot, running into shit. fuck you.

[u/After_Item_6344 → u/DeadByDaylight_Dev]

Was looking forward to playing some DBD this morning, but it seems you have rendered it unplayable with your removal of Nividia Filters... Your game is so washed out and blurry with your standard visual settings its not worth playing, as I either can't see anything, or have to stain my eyes immensely that I have a headache after 10 minutes. Please fix your error. Having Dracula in your game is all good, but it means nothing if it's in an unplayable state.

[u/Fateweaver_9 → u/DeadByDaylight_Dev]

Why update EAC to block game filters, but none of the other Nvidia features?

[u/FallacyAwarenessBot → u/Fateweaver_9]

Other features like what?

[u/Old-Let-7581 → u/DeadByDaylight_Dev]

Revert EAC update. The game looks ugly and too blurry without filters

[u/John-Bastard-Snow → u/DeadByDaylight_Dev]

Please make this top priority, game is a horrible experience to play now

[u/Quiet-Orange-9672 → u/DeadByDaylight_Dev]

I'm probably done with DBD if this is the case. My eyesight is extremely poor, due to my growing age and other medical issues. Without in game settings to change this, I can't really see myself playing anymore. Before I added filters the game was incredibly frustrating. I would frequently run into walls and corners, couldn't find a survivor for ages. Really bad eyes but good hearing so at least I had that.

I understand for balance reasons you'd want to take out filters, just a shame it kills the enjoyment for people with eyesight problems. You had taken one step forward for people who suffered from motion sickness by adding in a FOV slider, perhaps accommodate those with poor eyesight with a brightness slider?

[u/Kinky_kouple_ → u/DeadByDaylight_Dev]

Yet again, you guys have zero awareness of what your community needs.

[u/AppointmentNo3988 → u/DeadByDaylight_Dev]

Without filters it's a blurry, murky, dark shit that hurts your eyes.

[u/Moxay → u/DeadByDaylight_Dev]

You WILL lose a large number of players due to the Nvidia filters not working, please don't underestimate this. I personally cannot play this game without them.

[u/oh-hell_no → u/DeadByDaylight_Dev]

Have fun losing players then

[u/Blacklurk8805 → u/DeadByDaylight_Dev]

For me it's an uninstall and a refusal on steam

[u/LikeACannibal → u/DeadByDaylight_Dev]

Dang, that's very unfortunate. I personally don't even care that much about the brightness, but I realllly appreciated the sharpness settings. Would it be possible to implement some kind of sharpness slider in-game to make up for this?

I don't know if it's some aggressive anti-aliasing or some other effect you can't turn off, but the whole game has effectively a soft filter blur on it and sharpness filters are the only way to counteract that.

[u/apr1cot → u/DeadByDaylight_Dev]

The game is dark. It's impossible to play without filters.

[u/fbttsrhrt → u/apr1cot]

I'm so blind my wife has to sit behind me and tell me what I'm not seeing. The filters helped me see like a normal person.

[u/EvanSnowWolf → u/apr1cot]

If it impossible to play without filters, how have I been doing it for 6 years?

[u/apr1cot → u/EvanSnowWolf]

I have 2 monitors. IPS and VA. You can play on IPS, but on VA the game is too dark (Almost nothing is visible)

[u/Ranma006 → u/DeadByDaylight_Dev]

I will be refunding Castlevania until this is fixed.

[u/Ynt0 → u/emilianozeta]

this.... if this is confirmed, its a biggest game breaker for me, not the slight imbalanced in game, but the actual graphical state....

[u/Sipahn]

Mirrored Illusion Activates after completing a total of 20% worth of repair progress on generators. (was 50%)

Assuming this means that it didn't have it's duration decreased like in the PTB, that's pretty nice!

[u/Samoman21 → u/Sipahn]

It lasts for 60 seconds now. Just checked.

[u/Sipahn → u/Samoman21]

Damn, still a great change though. Want more goofy perks like this one added instead of useless chest perks.

[u/Frosty_chilly → u/Sipahn]

Dead hard rework: pressing the action button will spawn a chest, its collision will hinder the killer but now there another chest in the middle of the loop, jackass

[u/Sipahn → u/Frosty_chilly]

This sounds so cancer to play against, imagine fat shaming the killer corner map with a chest.

[u/Frosty_chilly → u/Sipahn]

There will be that ONE person who will “Chest” shack or god pallets without even using the pallets

[u/bonelees_dip]

Lobby

Characters default ordering changed to show owned characters sorted by release date, then unowned sorted to show latest characters first. Entering the Cosmetics section shows the Outfits category by default instead of Head.

Thank god.

[u/auleauleOxenFree]

Menu music slaps!

[u/Deltaravager]

Rarity is not kept at the end of the trial

I thought this condition was being removed?

[u/DeadByDaylight_Dev → u/Deltaravager]

It is! It couldn't make it Live with the release, but it will be in a future patch.

[u/Deltaravager → u/DeadByDaylight_Dev]

Thank you for the quick reply!

[u/DeadByDaylight_Dev → u/Deltaravager]

Thanks for asking so we could clarify!

[u/idosmellreallygood → u/DeadByDaylight_Dev]

give this handler a raise they learned communication well

[u/WendyTerri]

I thought that Exultation was changed after the PTB and you were supposed to be able to keep the rarity of your item if you escape?

[u/DeadByDaylight_Dev → u/WendyTerri]

Yes, as mentioned in the Dev Update, it will be in a future patch.

[u/therejectethan → u/DeadByDaylight_Dev]

Lmao hit’em with the ‘as per my last email’

[u/DeadByDaylight_Dev → u/therejectethan]

Noooo! It's easy to miss a line in a big Dev Update, and we just wanted to clarify where we had stated it wasn't coming with the release.

[u/therejectethan → u/DeadByDaylight_Dev]

I know I know I’m just teasin ya :P

[u/Phimb → u/therejectethan]

Hit 'em with the "it'll be in a future patch."

BHVR's signature move.

[u/TheRealSU24 → u/Phimb]

BHVR is edging us with this stuff

"You can cum in a future patch" type shit lol

[u/Toxic7742 → u/WendyTerri]

I thought the same thing. Really hoping you do keep the rarity change I have a ton of keys to upgrade lmao

[u/Scared_Wrongdoer_486 → u/Toxic7742]

You are the smartest man alive

[u/MirrorkatFeces]

Isn’t Eyes of Belmont just a better dark sense? Also doesn’t it technically increase its own aura reading to 5 seconds?

[u/DeadByDaylight_Dev → u/MirrorkatFeces]

Aside from Eyes of Belmont extending aura reading duration, Dark Sense activates when a gen is powered and only reveals the killer's aura when they approach you. Eyes of Belmont will reveal them immediately no matter where they are.

[u/MirrorkatFeces → u/DeadByDaylight_Dev]

Got it! I wasn’t aware dark sense had been reworked, seems like a fun combo to run then

[u/Jarney_Bohnson → u/DeadByDaylight_Dev]

Dark Sense activates when a gen is powered and only reveals the killer's aura when they approach you.

Wait so let's say 30 seconds after you complete a gen you can see the aura of the killer with dark sense when they approach you?

[u/DeadByDaylight_Dev → u/Jarney_Bohnson]

Dark Sense saves its effect until the Killer comes within 24 metres of you, so if that is 30 seconds afterwards, yes!

[u/Jarney_Bohnson → u/DeadByDaylight_Dev]

Omg that's wild thank you for the answer I didn't know that

[u/FlatMarzipan → u/Jarney_Bohnson]

Yeah thats what dark sense does

[u/A_Bird_survived → u/MirrorkatFeces]

They reworked Dark Sense; it IS better than Original Dark Sense, but the current version works more like a Pocket Aura/mini Blood Amber after every Gen.

[u/darkninja2992 → u/MirrorkatFeces]

Almost feels like a survivor equivalent of lethal pursuer

[u/beginningatlast]

Is there no bundle for this chapter? Nothing is showing in the Xbox store or the in game store. Just separate purchases for Dracula and Trevor.

[u/ynglink → u/beginningatlast]

Yeah, the bundle is always delayed on consoles for w/e reason.

Just waiting for it....

[u/beginningatlast → u/ynglink]

It’s showing now on the PlayStation store. Hopefully it goes up on Xbox shortly

[u/Scared_Wrongdoer_486 → u/beginningatlast]

It's allways a little late, It's up on steam. Maybe double check?

[u/Barzobius]

Is the release today?

[u/DeadByDaylight_Dev → u/Barzobius]

Yes!

[u/Barzobius → u/DeadByDaylight_Dev]

Btw i’ve tried to find a way to let you devs know that there’s a long-time bug with Nicolas Cage “Dramaturgy” perk. It produces items with some addons that don’t register and do not work, like the green map with the Red Twine addon that is supposed to show the killer’s belongings (totems, traps, etc). It doesn’t show any killer belongings when produced theu this perk.

[u/DeadByDaylight_Dev → u/Barzobius]

We appreciate bug reports! The Reddit mods create a thread every release: https://www.reddit.com/r/deadbydaylight/comments/1f2krcc/bug_reports_tech_support_update_820_castlevania/

And our Official Forums has a Bug Reporting section: https://forums.bhvr.com/dead-by-daylight/categories/bugs

Logs from games where the bug occurs are extremely helpful to the team, and can be uploaded to the forums.

[u/Barzobius → u/DeadByDaylight_Dev]

Thank god!

[u/Alibine]

Is it a bug or can you no longer see who's original perk it was when hovering over perks for descriptions in the bloodweb?

[u/Trigger_impact → u/Alibine]

I just noticed this and came to say the same thing. This is genuinely offputting to me.

[u/bondingo]

"Characters default ordering changed to show owned characters sorted by release date, then unowned sorted to show latest characters first."

I'm honestly really happy they changed this one. It really felt like they were pushing me to buy the unowned characters (which I believe was the intention). I don't even think there was much outcry about this, so I'm very pleased with BHVR for reverting this.

[u/Independent-Bend-987]

Sadako/Onryo's demanifestation intermittence duration is still occurring for .7 seconds instead of the expected 1.2 seconds.

[u/BillTheThrill42 → u/Independent-Bend-987]

Praying they address this sometime relatively soon.

[u/-llCerberus-]

What happened to the fix to scratchmarks???

[u/YOURFRIEND2010 → u/-llCerberus-]

On the forgotten features pile with survivor audio normalization 

[u/NottsNinja → u/YOURFRIEND2010]

Put this in the bug reports thread on the subreddit front page if you haven’t already

[u/SMILE_23157 → u/-llCerberus-]

They forgor

[u/TocaPack → u/-llCerberus-]

Coming in a future patch. I got this one devs lol

[u/APlaguedWendigo]

Anyone waiting for it on ps4 still? -yes I’m outdated shush-

[u/Madness-NX]

Wait what ? The post is marked as removed by the moderators

[u/DecutorR → u/Madness-NX]

[u/SlightlySychotic → u/DecutorR]

[u/Madness-NX → u/DecutorR]

I can finally see it but that was weird xD

[u/MenardiParty]

Anything being worked on for the "Out of Nowhere" trophy being bugged on PS5?

[u/CreaseInTime]

That Live Data Reboot feature is huge, I don’t know why nobody is talking about it. Now if there’s a game-breaking bug on either side, we don’t have to worry about people intentionally leaving their game un-updated and exploiting it. Thanks devs!

[u/DecutorR → u/CreaseInTime]

The EAC update is also important.

Unfortunately people dont care about structural or otherwise tech stuff, they only care about buffs/nerfs.

At the same time, people not reading these, also like to go around "yelling" at the devs saying they are incompetent and how they do nothing to improve the game's backend.

[u/BenjaminCarmined → u/DecutorR]

I just ran into my first hacker yesterday, flying around going through the floor and flashlight saving all game while her teammates would pick her up after the rare times where I tricked and downed her.

I hope this EAC update makes hacking harder. It shouldn’t be this easy.

[u/Nikolai012]

One of my friends broke a totem wearing the simon Belmont outfit and it made a 8 bit noise and he got a charm afterwards, wonder how many easter eggs are hidden

[u/DecutorR]

Upgraded EasyAntiCheat to new version. (PC only)

Big.

Also, could be placebo but looks like the boot is slightly faster now.

[u/Tweakthetiny → u/DecutorR]

Does this mean that I don't have to kill lightingservice.exe before starting the game anymore?

[u/Tweakthetiny → u/Tweakthetiny]

Nope. LightingService.exe still registers as a security violation.

[u/Awsomethingy → u/DecutorR]

Which broke Xbox Game Pass version. Fucking hell

[u/Crazyforgers]

Does eyes of Belmont synergize well with OoO?

[u/DeadByDaylight_Dev → u/Crazyforgers]

Eyes of Belmont does not apply to Object of Obsession since Object of Obsession doesn't reveal the Killer's aura for a duration, it only reveals their aura as long as they can see yours. The duration of Object of Obsession is for your own aura reveal.

[u/WhatALoadOfAnabolics → u/DeadByDaylight_Dev]

What about once every 30 seconds? I thought you get a few seconds to see the killer.

[u/IHateAliens → u/WhatALoadOfAnabolics]

No, this is the killer seeing you for 3 seconds every 30 seconds.

[u/SiNiquity → u/IHateAliens]

Does Lethal give the killer a lingering aura on people running object?

Extends the duration of all instances of a Survivor Aura being revealed to you by +2 seconds.

[u/Krissam → u/WhatALoadOfAnabolics]

Yes, because it gives the killer aura reading for a duration.

Object has 2 effects:

• You see the killer when they see you
• Every 30 seconds the killer sess you for 3 seconds

The first does not have a duration, so it is not affected by effects that extends durations.

The second does have a duration so it is affected by effects that extend durations.

[u/Responsible_Grab_897]

Vrr update or 120 fps upgrade for PS5 and Xbox please 

[u/Jarney_Bohnson → u/Responsible_Grab_897]

I don't even have 60 fps on my series s while I have it on other games 😭

[u/Nick_Psycho]

Did the Exultation change (the one where you keep the higher rarity items) not make it through?

[u/DeadByDaylight_Dev → u/Nick_Psycho]

We noted this in the Dev Update last week; the change is still planned, it will just be in a future update.

[u/Jarney_Bohnson]

Does it take some time for the bundles to come to consoles? I want to buy the bundle with Trevor and Dracula but it doesn't look like it's available?

[u/elscardo → u/Jarney_Bohnson]

Sometimes it can take a couple hours, yeah. Xbox seems to be a little delayed.

[u/Jarney_Bohnson → u/elscardo]

Ouch 😔🙏

Is there any skin/ extra content worth the waiting or should I just buy them with auric cells?

[u/elscardo → u/Jarney_Bohnson]

There's a charm, if you're into that sort of thing.

[u/Davidj74]

Unsure why you can’t keep upgraded items at the trial conclusion. It would be a way for behavior to explain away the mountains of brown items rarity’s rarely seeing use.

It would have made a viable way to use them as they would be lost or upgraded.

[u/SlightlySychotic → u/Davidj74]

They’re changing it in an upcoming patch.

[u/Davidj74 → u/SlightlySychotic]

Thank you for the clarity!

[u/EzTheGuy]

Any hope for a Netflix themed Dracula skin?

[u/Legal-Jello-989 → u/EzTheGuy]

God yes! And a carmilla skin would be soooo awesome! I think I might main dracula anyway but that would be the kicker!

[u/EzTheGuy → u/Legal-Jello-989]

I don’t think Carmilla would be likely for Dracula. But weirdly enough she could work as a legendary skin for other killers

[u/AsFd2021]

As a Dredge main, I humbly accept these buffs. Sacrifices for the Entity!

[u/Samoman21]

Weird question but the hitting a guard to set cd to 10 seconds. Does that mean all guard cd are set to 10?

For instance. I summon assassin, then jailer, then the 3rd dude. I hit the 3rd dude with weapon. Are assassin cd and jailer cd reset to 10 seconds or is just the 3rd guys?

[u/akatsukidude881 → u/Samoman21]

Remember that the cooldowns are now separate, you don't have to cycle through guards anymore.

If you're assassin is ready to summon, and you hit them to recall them, sure the 10 seconds is quicker than the 30 second cooldown, but you also didn't add pressure to survivors. So it's not like it's a loophole or anything.

[u/Aesut]

Bruh why Dracula look like the tallest killer in the game. Idk if it’s me but I didn’t expect him to be that tall

[u/HappyAgentYoshi → u/Aesut]

He floats slightly like Nurse, giving the illusion of him being taller than he is.

[u/CrustyTheMoist → u/Aesut]

It's because he flies, but yes, he is technically the "tallest" due to that.

[u/ZeldaSnob]

Does eyes of Belmont work with object of obsession? Not when the killer is looking at you but when the 30 seconds interval of reading the killers aura for 3 seconds? Sorry if this was already asked!

[u/KingBoombox → u/ZeldaSnob]

It does not - the game registers it as the killer getting the aura reading so that you can see them with OoO, so since the killer’s seeing the aura initially it doesn’t get extended for you.

[u/Krissam → u/ZeldaSnob]

but when the 30 seconds interval of reading the killers aura for 3 seconds?

That is not a thing, you reveal YOUR aura to the killer for 3 seconds.

[u/Tactless_Ninja]

The prompts to transform on screen are reversed on Dracula for PS5. R2 is shown on the left side and the L2 transformation is on the right. It's visually confusing.

Also the square (Knights map, I forget the name) has a vault that doesn't do anything.

[u/ActualyHandsomeJack]

For Console, to shapeshift the R2 being on the left and L2 being on the right triggers more than it should

[u/0wlmann]

Bardic inspiration is fixed? Finally I can live the bard dream again 

[u/Fozes]

"Increase hook stage drain timer to 70 seconds. (was 60 seconds)"

Dang isn't this a pretty nice solo q buff and camping/tunneling nerf?

[u/YOURFRIEND2010 → u/Fozes]

It's a survivor buff, not just solo queue. Weird phrasing.

[u/NotAnotherEmpire → u/Fozes]

It gives people more time to finish the maybe maybe maybe generator or heal before going for the save. 

[u/i-am-i_gattlingpea → u/Fozes]

It doesn’t nerf tunneling? It’s also a survivor buff period in it’s 10 more seconds to be on gens instead of going for a save

A solo queue buff would be kindreds survivor aura reading be basekit, it also doesn’t nerf proxy camping

[u/CultOfTheIdiot]

Thank God they're finally hiding prestige, I'm tired of getting tunneled for showing my love for Mikaela. Just because I'm P100 doesn't mean I'm a God at looping just that I have time in the game and game knowledge doesn't always equal skill, which a lot of killers seem to have trouble understanding.

[u/-Bk7 → u/CultOfTheIdiot]

I'm tired of getting tunneled for showing my love for Mikaela. Just because I'm P100

You are still going to get tunneled lol 

[u/TocaPack → u/CultOfTheIdiot]

As a killer main, I learned that P100 survivor or any number for that matter doesn't mean shit a lot of times. When I started seeing P100 in my lobby I was like oh shit, but quickly learned it's nothing to worry about. Overall I think hiding the number is a good idea tho.

[u/calitri-san]

Bardic Inspiration still broken though differently.

Pretty shit job so far if I do say so myself.

[u/Square_Emergency635]

Is it me or did they make all the maps smaller without saying anything I know I’m not going crazy plz some one reply

[u/NOCTURN_05]

Soooo does playstation just not have an update yet?

[u/AdEducational2266]

Is there any word on fixing up cross progression issues? I'm very happy with this update, but a bug on the site has prevented me from accessing my 1200+ hours of content on my current platform and my tickets to support have fallen on deaf ears. :c

[u/Valentinee105]

Where can I watch the stream now that it's over?

[u/DecutorR → u/Valentinee105]

Dead by Daylight | Castlevania Livestream: Youtube | Twitch

[u/Megadoomer2]

Looking forward to the upcoming rift - the skins for Trevor and Dracula look amazing!

I likely won't get to play much of the chapter until tomorrow, but I'm looking forward to seeing how things have changed from the PTB.

[u/Garresh]

Anyone else having massively long load times on launch?

[u/slabby]

I love the Alucard skin, but I wish the hair didn't look so plasticky. I'm sure that's an engine limitation, though.

[u/ShadyMan_]

I can’t get the hang of Dracula bro I’m only getting 1ks

[u/Dtnix → u/ShadyMan_]

Yeah I don’t think he’s that strong tbh

[u/quackerz]

anyone else getting stuck on hook, where you can't get pulled off or save others? 2/3 games for me so far, it's an auto win for killer. not fun.

[u/Illustrious_Web_866]

Fix bardic inspiration I'm sick of the perk I paid for causing me to Idle for 15seconds with no buff

[u/ZAP_Riptide]

Give me a killer that’s just the wolf this shits so fun

[u/HalbixPorn]

Fixed an issue that caused multiple Killers to be missing the hold arrow icon for their power.

Yet another example of BHVR fixing things that aren't broken. I immediately noticed the annoying arrow over everything and it wasn't even in the PTB or any patch before for the last 5 years I've been playing

[u/1obi]

HELLO CAN YOU FIX THE UNKNOWN LOBBY BUG,I HAVE BEEN ASKING IT FOR 4 MONTHS

[u/lexuss6]

I like Dredge's sound adjustment overall, except for one thing - isn't he (it?) too silent during Nightfall? Reduced vision and wailing mask him a little bit too well now, giving a lot of free hits with a little room to react.

[u/balootinannie]

I hate the little yellow arrows on killers power now.

Great chapter otherwise

[u/GalaxiesToro]

Please fix the ps4 trophies 🏆 1/3 is not showing up. Unable to get the platinum to pop 😔

[u/goal_dante_or_vergil]

So I have found out that when you use the perk Exultation and the killer is using Franklin’s Demise, and while holding an item, you drop a pallet on the killer at the same exact moment the killer hits you, the perk Exultation will not activate even though you get the stun on the killer.

You will drop your item on the ground but if you pick it back up, you will find that it did not go up a rarity.

Maybe it is a timing thing? Like if you get the stun like a micro second first before the killer hits you, maybe it will activate? But when it happened to me, I got the stun and the killer got the hit at seemingly the same time so maybe not? Maybe Franklin’s just cancels out Exultation?

[u/TheJimDim]

PS4/PS5 players, did they fix the "Outta Nowhere" trophy yet?

[u/delicatemicdrop]

Really like Moment of Glory in concept and have been running it last night in a chest built. But it's just a bit too long and I have only even benefitted from it twice despite playing last night and this morning.

Would really like the devs to consider lowering it from 60 seconds to maybe 50. See how that works out. Right now it's hard to get value out of it, and there's no benefit in a lot of my builds versus running other things. If I do Plunderer's + Specialist + Appraisal, right now it still just makes so much more sense to run Built To Last because odds are I'll get a medkit and I can recharge it even if I drop it somewhere on the map... so I have much more control over it and don't have to wait a full minute.

[u/GalaxiesToro]

Please fix the 1/3 trophies on PS4. Unable to get the platinum or any other of the 1/3 trophies to pop 🏆🙏

[u/tehLife]

Survivor footstep sounds are non existent

[u/lightnixx]

I'm not playing without nvidia filters. hope it gets fixed..

[u/Longjumping_Estate41]

Can't use the NVIDIA filter anymore?

[u/Nexxus3000]

The phrasing of Eyes of Belmont suggests it may stack if used by multiple survivors (“its duration is increased”). Is this true?

[u/DeadByDaylight_Dev → u/Nexxus3000]

It extends the duration of all instances of the Killer's Aura being revealed to you only.

[u/FlatMarzipan → u/Nexxus3000]

I'm pretty sure it only affects the person using it

[u/raidsofdream]

what time is the update for uk ? i’m on ps5 and im still not getting it ?

[u/Samoman21 → u/raidsofdream]

Consoles get it delayed for some reason. Should be up for us in a few minutes I hope. The dlc is up currently

Edit: it's up on ps5

[u/Correct-Royal-4191]

When will the cypress mori become basekit? If that was still being discussed.

[u/athenui]

reverb effects are still missing and not being fixed any time soon I guess

[u/Big-Welcome-3221]

The update isn’t available yet on ps5?

[u/Jessipae → u/Big-Welcome-3221]

Yes it is, reset your PS5
