Change Log
- Nerf: doubled the Cool-down durations from 40/35/30 seconds. to 80/70/60 seconds.
- Nerf: instead of causing Survivors to scream and reveal their location, while interrupting their interactions, they now have their Aura revealed instead.
- Nerf: halved the activation time after opening a Locker from 30 seconds to 15 seconds.
- Nerf: removed the Linger effect for the Perk's main effect.
- Reversal: again causes Survivors entering the Activation radius to scream and reveal their location, instead of revealing their Aura.
- Change: changed the Activation radius from being tied to the Terror Radius of the Killer to now be fixed to the Locker's location.
- This change retains the previous change's intended effect of nerfing the Perk for high-mobility Killers, while also buffing it for Killers with small Terror Radii or who lack mobility.
Trivia
- Before Patch 7.7.1, Survivors suffering from the Oblivious Status Effect would be unaffected by Ultimate Weapon, as they could not perceive the Terror Radius.
Flavour Text
- Ash was a synthetic Weyland-Yutani employee acting as the science officer aboard the Nostromo in 2122, when it and its crew encountered The Xenomorph on the moon LV-426.
- The flavour text refers to a scene from the original Alien movie:
- Ash, decapitated and covered in hydraulic fluids after his betrayal was discovered, tells Ripley and the remaining surviving crew members about the futility of surviving their fight against the perfect organism that is The Xenomorph.
