Change Log[]

Patch 8.3.0[]

Rework: now uses the Token system.
- Buff: allows the Perk User to store Tokens and use the Perk potentially more than once per chase and when it is more likely that they will get some use out of it.
- Buff: increased the fixed Location-reveal duration from 4 seconds to a variable 3/4/5 seconds.
- Nerf: reduced the variable Activation range from 28/30/32 metres to a fixed 24 metres.

Trivia[]

TWHACK! triggers regardless of how a Breakable Wall or Pallet is broken, as long as the destruction is caused by the Killer.
- This includes the Killer breaking it manually or using their Power to do so, or by activating Perks like Spirit Fury.
- This excludes a Survivor breaking it by vaulting it while Dissolution is active, as it is the interaction of the Survivor that triggers the destruction, not the Killer, despite it being a Killer Perk.
THWACK! also activates if the Killer cannot be stunned by the Pallet at the moment of it breaking (i.e. when Spirit Fury triggers while The Singularity is in Overclock Mode).
