Dark Sense
Take it from an old-timer: Slow down, don't rush and try not to worry so much! The best way to beat him is to know how he thinks. - Murf, The Lost Tapes
Description
Unlocks potential in your Aura-reading ability.
When the trial starts, and after a Generator is completed, you earn 1 Token, up to 5.
When the Killer gets within 20m of you, spend 1 Token. Then, for the next 13/14/15s:
- You see the Aura of Pallets and Windows within 32m
- You see the Auras of other Survivors.
- You see the Killer's Aura.
Our take
Dark Sense no longer fires on the game's schedule. You earn a Token when the trial starts and one after every Generator you complete, up to five, and you spend a Token only when you want a read. One Token buys 13/14/15 seconds of Pallets and Windows within 32 metres, the auras of other Survivors, and the Killer's aura.
How to use itThe 10.2.0 version triggered on Generator completion, which meant a perk you paid for could expire without ever triggering. The 10.3.0 token system fixes that. Bank Tokens early, then burn one the moment the Killer gets within 20 metres of you and you need to know whether it is you they are walking towards.
Best forThe pick for a Survivor who wants one reliable read on the Killer rather than a passive aura, and it sits in the same slot as Windows of Opportunity and Spine Chill without competing with them for the aura they provide.
