The specimen seems to be able to affect the state of nearby objects, as if they existed in some other form within a dimension alternate to our own. - Hawkins National Laboratory

Description

Your ties to the otherworldly manifest when your prey attempts to get away.
Whenever a Generator is completed, Cruel Limits activates:
- Blocks every Vault location on the Map for all Survivors for the next 20/25/30 seconds.
- The Auras of the blocked Vault locations are highlighted to you in yellow.

Our take

Complete a Generator and every Vault location on the Map is blocked for all Survivors for 20/25/30 seconds, with the blocked spots highlighted to you in yellow. The lockdown fires off any completion, not just the last one.

How to use it Take it to punish a Generator rush before the endgame. Remember the blocked Vaults are shown to you in yellow, so Survivors can read exactly what you have taken away.

Best for Corrupt Intervention and Bamboozle are the natural pairing, with Scourge Hook: Pain Resonance the fourth option. Cruel Limits is the pick for a Killer who would rather remove an escape route than win a footrace.
