Change Log
- Buff: reduced the initial penalty from -25 % to -15 % at 0 Tokens.
- This has the effect that the Perk no longer incurs a penalty on the second Skill Check, unlike it previously would.
Trivia
- Autodidact can be combined with Solidarity


to potentially heal both you and the other Survivor at the same time once enough Tokens were obtained.
- Autodidact used to have red Skill Checks while the Perk applied a negative Healing Penalty. These were removed with the Patch 4.5.0 HUD Update.
- These Skill Checks shared the same colour scheme as the Hex Skill Checks applied by Hex: Ruin
