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, if available.

Breaking

Breakable Walls take the same amount of time to break as Pallets: 2.34 seconds.

Most Unlockables affecting the Pallet-Breaking speed also work on Breakable Walls.

Map Use

CHAPTER 15: 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 exceptions to this are the reworked Shelter Woods, Wreckers' Yard, Rotten Fields and Sanctum of Wrath Maps.

Unlockables

Survivor Perks

	Alert	"Your acute senses are on high alert." Whenever the Killer performs the Break or Damage Action, Alert triggers: Their Aura is revealed to you for 3/4/5 seconds. "I have true sight," — Feng Min
	Windows of Opportunity	Unlocks potential in your Aura-reading ability. The Auras of Breakable Walls, Pallets, and Windows are revealed to you within 24/28/32 metres. "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." While performing the Break or Damage action on Breakable Walls, Pallets, or Generators, Brutal Strength triggers its effect: Increases the Action speed by 10/15/20 %. "It is more than muscles. A dark power motivates the beast."
	Game Afoot	"First you pick your prey, then you pick it apart." Whenever you hit the Survivor with currently the highest cumulative Chase time with a Basic Attack, Game Afoot triggers its primary effect: Causes the Obsession status to transfer to that Survivor. While chasing the Obsession, performing the Break or Damage action causes Game Afoot to trigger its secondary effect: Grants a #haste Haste Status Effect for 8/9/10 seconds. You can only be obsessed with one Survivor at a time. "This one might actually be a challenge..." — Sonhadores Sombrios, Issue #3
	THWACK!	Your prey is terrified by your relentless pursuit. Start the Trial with 3 Tokens. Whenever you break a Breakable Wall or a dropped Pallet, THWACK! consumes -1 Token and applies the following effect: Causes all Survivors within 24 metres of your location to scream and reveal their Aura for 3/4/5 seconds. Whenever you hook a Survivor, THWACK! is granted +1 Token. "All those who stood in her path feared her mighty THWACK!" — Sonhadores Sombrios, Issue #3

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 2.34 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.
