The Wallhacks Key Build
Aura-reading build that pairs perfectly with a Key add-on for information dominance and self-unhook potential.
The build
These four perks work together as a aura-reading survivor setup. Each slot has a job; together they form a closed loop.

Sable WardWhy it works
Eyes of Belmont reveals the Killer's aura for 1/2/3 seconds each time a generator is completed - the most reliable aura reveal in the game. Dark Sense reveals the Killer's aura within 24 meters for 5 seconds when you fully repair a generator - combined with Eyes of Belmont, you get the Killer's position twice per gen. Poised (Jane Romero) reveals the Killer's aura for 6 seconds when you start repairing a generator, and you leave no scratch marks for 6 seconds. Wicked (Sable Ward) lets you self-unhook once in the basement and reveals the Killer's aura for 16/18/20 seconds when you are unhooked. Pair with a Key add-on like Blood Amber or Broken Keys to extend aura reading further.

Targeted at patch 10.0.0 (released 16 June 2026). The Slasher (Jason Voorhees) and his three launch perks appear in this build. We refresh this page after every major balance patch - if a perk has been nerfed or buffed since 10.0.0, the "Why it works" section is the first place we update.
