Among the seven perks seeing changes is Gearhead which will now reveal survivors who perform Good skill checks when repairing generators instead of Great skill checks, giving the killer a small leg up in being able to locate survivors. Additionally, a universal change to all Med-kits increases the healing speed when healing others but decreases self-healing speed.This will likely encourage more survivor synergywith how players allocate healing resources among themselves.
As part of the Autohaven Wreckers Realm,the Blood Lodge and Gas Heaven mapsare receiving some changes as well. More lockers and pallets have been added to the realm to aid survivors and the placement of the gas station has been adjusted. Among the many killers receiving tweaks is the Hillbilly, a chainsaw-wielding killer who has received buffs to heat-gain during chainsaw rev-ups but a small nerf to his heat gain during the Chainsaw Sprint ability which doubles his movement speed. Players have been asking for improvements to the Bloodweb interface and changes have finally been addressed in update 6.7.0. Bloodwebs are character progression trees that players can spend earnable bloodpoints on to unlock perks and add-ons for a killer or survivor. In this update, the Bloodweb system has been made smoother and less clunky for players to navigate.
Dead by Daylight’s mid-chapter 6.7.0 update is massive and will hopefully satiate players who’ve been asking for some of these changes for a while.
