Dead by Daylight Update 10.1.1 Buffs Repressed Alliance

Behaviour Interactive pushes a bugfix update for Dead by Daylight, tweaking Survivor perks and Killer mechanics.

Behaviour Interactive's latest hotfix for Dead by Daylight introduces targeted adjustments to Killer power behaviors and Survivor perks alongside environment and audio bug fixes.

Killer Adjustments: The Judgment and The Knight

The Judgment receives a buff to its Divine Light curve window while Zealous, doubling the duration to 0.6 seconds. The Knight's interactions with pallets are updated: dropping a pallet while hunted forces the guard to path around it. If that path exceeds 48 meters, the guard abandons the hunt. Dropping a pallet directly on a guard makes them move straight through it.

Survivor Perk Tweaks

Repressed Alliance now requires 40, 35, or 30 seconds of generator repair time down from 55, allowing solo survivors to block a generator for 15 seconds faster. Vigil's exhaustion recovery rate within a 16-meter range drops to 20/25/30%.

Audio and Character Bug Fixes

A variety of audio bugs are resolved, including missing Torment Trail haptic feedback after falling and muffled sound effects when leaving tutorials. Character animation glitches—such as Thalita Lyra's hair braid lacking physics during matches and The Xenomorph's missing inner mouth animation during Moris—are also corrected.

Map and UI Corrections

Exploits and collision issues across multiple realms are patched. The Nurse can no longer blink inside the hill on Autohave Wreckers Realm or on top of railings at Dead Dawg Saloon. UI fixes resolve visual problems with the matchmaking button and clear up lingering reticules and charging bars for The Judgment.

Why this patch matters

Patch 10.1.1 delivers quality-of-life adjustments for both sides of the trial, though the nerf to Vigil forces exhaustion builds to adapt.
