Killer Updates
The Skull Merchant
Increased the Undetectable duration to 8 seconds (was 6).
Decoupled the Undetectable status effect from Deploying a Drone.
Gain Undetectable when Recalling a Drone instead.
Survivor Perk Updates
Breakdown:
Any time you are removed from a hook (escaped or saved), the hook breaks and the Killer's aura is shown to you for 4/5/6 seconds. A hook broken by this perk takes 180 seconds to respawn (Reverted to this version).
Wicked:
Your self-unhook attempts in the basement always succeed.
When you are unhooked or unhook yourself, you see the Killer's aura for 16/18/20 seconds (Reverted to this version).

Environment / Maps
Pallet Density Changes
Evaluated and adjusted pallet loops on Autohaven Wreckers, Backwater Swamp, Crotus Prenn Asylum, The MacMillan Estate, Ormond, Red Forest, and Yamaoka Estate. These changes include:
Adjusted the length of loops that were too short and unsafe.
Prevented pallets from spawning against certain small objects, creating short and awkward loops.
Reviewed pallet randomization on certain tiles to provide more spawn variation.
Dev note: We've done another pass on pallet tiles and loops in order to find a middle ground between the last two updates. We will be closely monitoring the impact of these changes as we collect data and continue to adjust to find a sweet spot that feels great for both roles!
