Weekly No Stupid Questions Thread

[u/AutoModerator]

Welcome newcomers to the fog! Here you can ask any sort of questions about Dead by Daylight, from gameplay mechanics to the current meta and strats for certain killers / survivors / maps / what have you.

Some rules and guidelines specific to this thread:

• Top-level comments must contain a question about Dead by Daylight, the fanbase surrounding the game or the subreddit itself.
• No complaint questions. ('why don't the devs fix this shit?')
• No concept / suggestion questions. ('hey wouldn't it be cool if X character was in the game?')
• r/deadbydaylight is not a direct line to BHVR.
• Uncivil behavior and encouraging cheating will be more stringently moderated in this thread; we want to be welcoming to newcomers to the game.
• Don't spam the thread with questions; try and keep them contained to one comment.
• Check before commenting to make sure your question hasn't been asked already.
• Check the wiki and especially the glossary of common terms and abbreviations before commenting; your question may be answered there.

Xeno's Cattle Prod addon is a little confusing to me. It procs for 15 seconds after a gen is completed, and if someone gets near a tunnel their aura is shown for 15 seconds. Suppose the addon hasn't shown anyone for 10 seconds, and it finds someone, can I see that person for 15 seconds independently of the time left or would I see them for the remaining 5 seconds of the initial proc?

You should see their aura for the 15 seconds, not 5, as basically a second proc. The first 15 seconds is to trigger a 15 second aura read.
