Description

You are fuelled by unexpecting energy when on the verge of escape.
Once the Exit Gates are powered, Adrenaline activates:
- Instantly heal the equivalent of 1 Health State.
- Grants a +50% Haste Status Effect for 3 seconds.
Adrenaline ignores an existing Exhausted Status Effect, but causes it for 60/50/40 seconds.

Our take

Exhaustion perk. Exhaustion perks are the backbone of any chase build. They give a one-shot burst of speed, after which you are locked out of other exhaustion perks for a duration.

How to use it Adrenaline is at its best when used to break line of sight - drop a pallet first, vault, then trigger it. Avoid using it at the start of a chase or in open ground where the Killer will just swing through it.

Best for Solo queue survivors who need a reliable chase escape. Pairs with any build that gives you pallet or vault value to extend the chase after the speed burst ends.
