Change Log

Patch 2.1.0

  • Rework: now causes Scratch Marks to spawn slightly/moderately/considerably closer together than normal, making it easier for a Killer to track a Survivor's path.

Patch 8.3.0

  • Rework: now reveals the Aura of the Survivor who lost you in chase last, helping you potentially restart the chase, in exchange of the Perk going on a cool-down afterwards.

Patch 8.3.2

  • Nerf: reduced the Aura-reveal duration from 6 seconds to 4 seconds.


Trivia

  • Predator can reveal the Auras of multiple Survivors with one activation, provided their chases end at the same time.
    • This is far more reliable when used alongside Killer Powers that end a chase immediately, such as when the WraithIconHelpLoading wraith.pngIconHelpLoading wraith.pngIconHelpLoading wraith.png cloaks himself with the Wailing BellIconPowers bell.pngIconPowers bell.pngIconPowers bell.png.
  • The code behind the old effects of Predator was too technical in nature for the numbers behind the modifiers to be useful to anyone without a deep knowledge of Dead by Daylight's inner workings, hence why they were never made available here.
    • However, the Perk's effects were plainly visible when in use.
