What officially changed
Content
The Judgment
Increased the Divine Light curve window while Zealous to 0.8s (was 0.6s)
Dev note: In hotfix 1 we increased the Zealous Curve window to 0.6s. However, that duration was shorter based on how long Divine Light was controlled - similar to how it was on the PTB. Because it can get pretty short, we felt it was safe to further increase it to 0.8s. We will continue monitoring this.
Added a 0.3s Divine Light curve window when non-Zealous
Dev note: The curving has been a hugely appreciated mechanic to the Zealous state, giving opportunities to outplay Survivors from close range. To give The Judgment an edge when outside of the Zealous state, we're adding a shorter curve window to Divine Light. Zealous is still worth getting due to the longer curve window but being non-Zealous will provide more outplay potential.
Survivors being Liberated from Exile respawn at least 32m away from The Judgment and get a 1s immunity to Divine Light
Dev note: After spending some time in Exile, returning to the Entity's Realm can be disorienting. Sometimes Survivors come back and The Judgment is right there, re-initiating a chase with them, to no fault of their (The Judgment's) own. To reduce the amount of times a Survivor that is freshly out of Exile gets chased again, we'll be respawning them away from the Killer. The 1s immunity is there to make sure a stray Divine Light doesn't accidentally hit - giving them a proper chance at a reset.
Game Mode: 2v8
NEW KILLER
The Xenomorph - Innate Skills:
When a turret takes The Xenomorph out of Crawler Mode it is automatically destroyed
The cooldown of Crawler Mode is 25% faster while outside of tunnels
Survivors hit by a Tail Strike are Mangled for 70 seconds
After exiting a tunnel, gain 5% Haste for 3 seconds
NEW ITEM: INVOKING SALT
Survivors will obtain Invoking Salt from Chests. It can be used once, consumed the moment it is placed. Placement takes 3 seconds
When it is placed, up to 4 Survivors can perform a 40 second interaction that allows them to use their Unlockable Skill without being Hooked and gain a 5% Haste boost for 5 minutes, which reduces by 1% after each minute passes. Performing the Ritual subsequent times will refresh the Haste bonus and duration
