Change Log

Patch 2.5.0

  • Rework: made the Perk more useful by making its primary effect last longer and adding secondary effects that provide additional information to the Killer and penalties to the Survivors.
    • Buff: now permanently highlights the Auras of all regressing Generators in the environment in white.
    • Buff: now highlights the Auras of Generators that were stopped from regressing by Survivors in yellow.
    • Buff: now increases the audible range of Repair noises.

Patch 4.3.0

  • Indirect Nerf: Generators regressing back to 0 %, which causes them to stop regressing without Survivor-intervention, now also trigger the secondary effect.
    • This change was an unfortunate side-effect of the standardisation to both Generator Terminology and to the underlying mechanics of effects that affect Generators in the same Patch.

Patch 5.0.0

  • Quality of Life: Generators stopping to regress at 0 % no longer trigger the secondary effect, making Survivor-intervention its exclusive trigger.


Trivia

  • The default audible range of Repair noises is 20 metres.
  • Surveillance does not require a Generator to be manually damaged by the Killer to activate.
