Change Log
- Nerf: reduced the Effect's duration from 20/25/30 seconds to 15/20/25 seconds.
- Change: following the departure of CHAPTER 21: Hellraiser™ from Dead by Daylight in March 2025, this Patch changes Deadlock depending on whether or not Players own the Chapter or not:
- For Players owning CHAPTER 21, the Perk remains unchanged as a Unique Perk belonging to The Cenobite
.
- This includes the original name, icon and flavour text.
- For all other Players, the Perk is changed into a General Perk available to all Killers, renaming it to No Holds Barred and giving it a new icon, replacing The Cenobite's face with a skull instead.
Trivia
- If the Generator with the highest Progression is already being blocked by other effects, No Holds Barred will block the Generator with the second-highest Progression instead.
- Should none of the other Generators have any Progression, No Holds Barred will block a random Generator.
- In the unlikely but possible event that two Generators are completed at the same time, No Holds Barred will block both one of the completed Generators, as well as the Generator with the next highest amount of Progression.
