Dead By Daylight Update 2.27 patch notes
contents
The trickster:
- The time before Mangle disintegrates has been increased to 15 seconds (was 10 seconds).
- Maximum throwing speed bonus increased to 30% (was 25%)
The performance of the Trickster is still lower than we would like after the 5.1.0 release, so we decided to add a bit more performance in some places. Chase dynamics are more interesting now as he has a short delay before laceration subsides, but it was a bit too easy for him to lose some of the progression to damage a survivor, which deserves an increase in delay.
