History
Change Log
Patch 1.7.2
- QoL: adjusted the bonus Score Event when hooking a Survivor to only trigger if there is a Survivor already on the Hook.
- Buff: changed Barbecue & Chilli to give the bonus Bloodpoints post-trial rather than during, similar to the functionality of We're Gonna Live Forever at the time.
Patch 2.6.0
- Rework: each Tier now increases the maximum obtainable bonus Percentage to 50/75/100 %.
- Buff: changed the distance Survivors must be from the Hook from a variable 52/46/40 metres to a fixed 40 metres.
- Buff: changed the stack-able bonus Percentage from a variable 15/20/25 % to a fixed +25 %.
Patch 6.1.0
- Rework: removed the bonus Bloodpoints due to reducing the grind in the Dead by Daylight's Progression System by ~75 %.
- Nerf: changed the distance Survivors must be from the Hook from a fixed 40 metres to a variable 60/50/40 metres.
Patch 7.1.0
- QoL (undocumented): increased the Aura-reveal duration from 4 seconds to 5 seconds.
- This change was most likely motivated by general changes to the Hooking interaction in the same Patch, which moved the Survivor's scream from triggering after the Hook pierces them to just before they are put onto the Hook itself, about a second earlier.
- Since this also moved the activation trigger for Barbecue & Chilli to be about a second earlier, the Aura-reveal duration was increased by that second to compensate for the Killer still being stuck in the Hooking animation when the Aura-reveal begins, unable to move their camera around and make use of the Aura-reveal effect.
- This change is deemed a Quality of Life change because of that, as the resulting usable Aura-reveal duration of the Perk remains effectively the same.
Trivia
- The Aura-reading will reveal the Auras of all Survivors outside of the radius, regardless of their Health State, unless they have a Perk that blocks Aura-reading abilities or are inside a Locker.
- Barbecue & Chilli is a reference to the dish of the same name, that was often eaten by the Sawyer family (to which the Cannibal belongs), but using human flesh as the main ingredient.
