Change Log

Patch 2.1.0

  • Rework: now reveals the Aura of the Killer upon completing a Generator instead of powering the Exit Gates.
    • Buff: increased the Aura-reveal duration from completing the last Generator (powering the Exit Gates was effectively the same condition) from 3/5/7 seconds to 5/7/10 seconds.
    • Buff: added a new effect that reveals the Aura for 5 seconds on completing any Generator that was not the last one.
    • Nerf: now only triggers when a Generator is completed by the Perk user (the pre-rework version did not care which Survivor completed the last Generator that powered the Exit Gates).

Patch 3.2.0

  • Reversal: reverted the previous nerf, now allowing the Perk to trigger on any completed Generator, regardless of who repaired it.

Patch 6.1.0

  • Rework:
    • Buff:Dark Sense now waits until the Killer comes within a certain distance of you to reveal their Aura, making it a more useful warning tool.
    • Buff: now applies its extended Aura-reveal duration that was previously reserved for completing the last Generator to all completed Generators.


Trivia

  • Dark Sense triggers instantly should the Killer already be within its activation radius.
  • Dark Sense has an equivalent Killer-Perk called Bitter MurmurIconPerks bitterMurmur.pngIconPerks bitterMurmur.pngIconPerks bitterMurmur.png.
  • "Murf" from the Lost Tapes is a reference to Murf, a former Community Moderator on Steam.
  • The effect Dark Sense had before its rework in Patch 6.1.0 was later reintroduced in the Perk Eyes of BelmontIconPerks EyesOfBelmont.pngIconPerks EyesOfBelmont.pngIconPerks EyesOfBelmont.png.
