Breakable Walls

Breakable Walls are Props featured in Dead by Daylight that were added with Patch 3.6.0.

Overview

Breakable Walls are similar to Pallets  in that they are randomly generated throughout the Map and can be broken by the Killer .

Unlike Pallets, however, Survivors cannot interact with them in any way.

They can generally be found in a Map's Landmark structure.

Usage

CHAPTER XV: Chains of Hate introduced the first Map featuring Breakable Walls, Dead Dawg Saloon.

Subsequently released Maps and older ones having received a Rework as part of the The Realm Beyond Update series generally feature them as well.
The sole exception to this is currently the reworked Shelter Woods Map, as it does not feature any Landmark structure aside from the Killer Shack.

• The MacMillan Estate
  • Coal Tower
  • Groaning Storehouse
  • Ironworks of Misery
  • Suffocation Pit
• Springwood

Interaction with Perks

The following Perks interact with Breakable Walls:

Survivor Perks

	Alert	Your acute senses are on high alert. When the Killer breaks a Pallet or Breakable Wall , or damages a Generator , their Aura is revealed to you for 3/4/5 seconds. "I have true sight." — Feng Min
	Windows of Opportunity	Unlocks potential in one's Aura-reading ability. Auras of Pallets , Breakable Walls , and Vaults are revealed to you when within a range of 20 metres. Windows of Opportunity has a cool-down of 30/25/20 seconds when vaulting or dropping a Pallet during a Chase. "Rise and shine, work hard, carve out your name, Take aim, pull the trigger, hit the bulls eye for fame, Know the value of faith, an' family, and don't you complain, Open wide, your windows of opportunity" — Kate Denson's "Windows of Opportunity"

Killer Perks

	Brutal Strength	Your great strength allows you to shred through your prey's defences. Destroy dropped Pallets and Breakable Walls , and damage Generators 10/15/20 % faster. "It's more than muscles. A dark power motivates the beast."
	Fire Up	The increased pressure of losing your preys fills you with anger and gives you unsuspected motivation. Each time the Survivors complete repairs on a Generator, Fire Up grows in power. For each Generator completed, gain a stack-able 3/3.5/4 % buff to Picking-up, Dropping, Pallet breaking, Breakable-Wall breaking, Generator damaging, and Vaulting speeds for the remainder of the Trial. "Now why don't you just fucking die?" — Freddy Krueger
	Zanshin Tactics	Unlocks potential in one's Aura-reading ability. You are mentally alert and aware of key points on the battlefield. The Auras of all Pallets , Breakable Walls , and Vaults are revealed to you within a range of 24 metres. When a Survivor is damaged, Zanshin Tactics becomes inactive for 40/35/30 seconds. "Within your enemy's strength is weakness." — Renjiro's Doctrine 12:5

Trivia

• The Developers originally intended for Breakable Walls to blend in with the Realm they are featured in, but still clearly visible as Breakable Walls.
  • However, this idea appears to have been discarded as they decided to colour them in a scheme similar to Pallets .
• Breakable Walls take 2.6 seconds to destroy and are affected by Perks boosting this interaction speed.
• Prior to Patch 3.7.0, all Killers used an altered Pallet-breaking animation for Breakable Walls.
• The last time such a universal feature was added to Dead by Daylight was with Patch 1.4.0, when the Damage Generator interaction was added.
• Originally first ever map that meant to get Breakable Walls was Badham Preschool during its first rework, but developers couldn't do this at that time.
