- Adrenaline will heal Survivors to the following Health States upon triggering:
- Injured Survivors become healthy.
- Dying Survivors or those suffering from the Deep Wound Status Effect become injured.
- Survivors suffering from the Broken Status Effect are not healed, but still receive the Haste Status Effect.
- Before Patch 7.7.0, Adrenaline would be put on hold if a Survivor was disabled at the moment of the Gates receiving power and apply its effects retroactively.
- If a Survivor was being carried, Adrenaline would trigger right after the Killer dropped them, they wiggled free, or they were rescued with a stun.
- If the Killer, however, managed to hook a Survivor, the Perk would become disabled.
- If a Survivor was hooked, Adrenaline would trigger right after they would be unhooked.
- If a Survivor was being carried, Adrenaline would trigger right after the Killer dropped them, they wiggled free, or they were rescued with a stun.
