Every Status Effect in DBD - Explained FAST! [Dead by Daylight Guide]

[@sh6rpshot]

Some people will probably say YoU cAn JuSt LoOk ThIs uP oN tHe dBd WikI, yes, you could, but I made this short video so that if you ever forget what a status effect does, or want to quickly know what they all do without reading all of them on the wiki, you can just watch this video as a quick reference :)

[@practicingpie9638]

thank you for explaining this. the game really does nothing to explain. i would get hit by sloppy butcher and i thought that i was dehydrated or something. i didn’t realize it was a blood drop lol

[@Jacob-zk1jy]

why spend 3 hours on the wiki when you can watch a 3 minute video that simplifies it all

[@PANDA-sr7jn]

Yeah its a great video

[@sephlove]

to be honest wiki could be very confusing when reading , this video helped WAY MORE! thanks for this!

My favorite status effect story was a huntress that was trying to be an insidious basement camper. Guess she didn't know I could still hear her singing.

[@sh6rpshot]

😂😂 no way someone did this

[@Zero852002]

Best part was I got the two people out she was camping (they still died cause she tunnled them) and when I got the exit gate opened and was running out she tried to rage quit to deny me the points but was too late and just cost herself the round.

Thanks for amazing short guide video! Usually content creators aim for 6-10 min+ long videos. Which is kinda annoying. Also, I had a question about perks that share exhaust thingy. Which is perfectly answered in this video. I appreciate it.. also, I haven’t played dbd for over a year or two. I came back recently and I am happy that I found this video. :)

You know, I’ve already known about most of these, but it’s still a really quick, nice and “to-the-point” guide for me, I didn’t even know that sleep penalty was a status effect I thought it was just applied over time.

[@middox239]

a note to incapacitated: it ABSOLUTELY stops survivors from leaving the game through the exit gates this status is in effect whenever a survivor is: - being hugged by victor, up to 5 seconds after they lose him, either by crushing him or charlotte putting the survivor into the dying state - being bound by a possessive chain by the cenobite and it also lingers a bit after they are put into the dying state by the killer, but i think not if they remove the chains themselves - being hit by a huntress who uses the weighted head addon (as shown in the video) these 3 are the only killers who can make survivors not leave the match by this status effect, since the only other way survivors can get incapacitated is by the perk Eruption, whereas the effect is far too short for a survivor to be afflicted by it, have another survivor complete a different or the same generator, open the gate for them and have them attempt to leave

[@redactedgaming3442]

I had no idea what oblivious did ever since it came out and I’ve been playing for so long. Thanks for this

[@sh6rpshot]

No problem!!

[@BigDamo53829]

1:23 just a small correction, Haemorrhage will make survivors drop blood more frequently, but doesn’t make blood easier to see. Bloodhound makes blood easier to see and victor can also see blood easier Edit: Madness afflictions are based on the types of add-ons, not the power itself but you will be unable to do any action aside from dropping pallets, vaulting windows and unhooking survivors. Edit 2: The killer can also lose bloodlust if they lose chase for more than around half a second. Edit 3: When you are supposed to be downed and have the endurance status effect, you will instead be inflicted with a deep wound, mettle of man is the only exception which will ignore the hit rather than inflicting a deep wound. Also the deep wound timer from borrowed time can be longer or shorter depending on the tier of the perk and the deep wound from the legion can be shortened with add-ons (Joey’s mixtape etc.) Edit 4: not being able to drop pallets or vault windows when shocked is a different affect, but isn’t a status and the madness skill check are part of the base power

[@sh6rpshot]

More blood = easier to see if that makes sense, going into the madness tiers specifics is sort of out of the scope of this video, and for bloodlust I only mentioned the things the killer can control in enfin the bloodlust, and for endurance I wanted to keep it just about endurance and not swing it back to deep wound even though your right it does put you back in the deep wound for BT and stuff :)

Forgot to add that in a chase Deep Wound's effect is paused otherwise it would be really cheese to just chase someone until they just fell on the ground

[@judasnestotrio]

Being hit while under the endurance status causes the deep wound status. Deep wound won't put you into the dying state if you are running.

[@DarkStone-ii5sg]

You forgot that one perk in the game can put a survivor in the Undetectable status effect Jeff Johansen: Distortion (sorry I am French and I don't know the English name of that perk) you begin the game with 3 tokens, and when your aura should be showed to the killer, 1 token is consumed and your aura is invisible to the killer during 10 seconds, and you also leave no scratchmarks and no blood (you have the undetectable status effect)

[@sh6rpshot]

That’s not necessarily the undetectable status effect, it just makes you hidden to the killer! It’s like having undetectable but for survivors which isn’t a a thing if that makes sense😂

This probably doesn’t matter too much, but if you are affected with the blindness status effect, you can still see white auras. I know for sure you can still see Jigsaw Boxes, Plague’s Wells, and Freddy’s Alarm Clocks. I’m unsure if you can see Nemesis’s Vaccines, though I’m pretty sure you can.

[@TTguy7050]

Ah sh6rp, the king of 3 minute guides

[@sh6rpshot]

That’s me!!! 😂

[@maciekdate]

From what I know "cursed" status doesn't always show off if it's affecting other survivors. I think that for Hex:Ruin and Hex:Huntress Lullaby you have to be the one affected by it to be shown on screen. It's also worth mentioning that "deep wound" status is nit progressing as you are running (I don't know if what I'm saying is true, but it's what I remember...)

[@sh6rpshot]

Your right! Cursed shows up if it’s affecting you, depending on the hex, and running pauses the deep wound timer :)

[@elgordobondiola]

You can add nememesis' new perk, eruption, as the first perk to give survivors the incapacitated status effect

[@sh6rpshot]

That does give the incapacitated too :)

I'd like to just add that since the Nemesis update the incapacitated can be applied on survivors when the killer has Eruption and you are working on a gen that was kicked by him and he hits another survivor with his m1 attack the generator explodes and incapacitates you.
