Dead by Daylight recently received an update that made changes to the Dredge.
The Dredge Changes
The Dredge is the latest Killer introduced into the game, which can teleport between Lockers and summon darkness.
In this update, The Dredge is going to be harder to spot. The maximum range to spot The Dredge while Nightfall is active is now 20 meters, previously 24 meters. This should give the Killer more opportunity to make plays against survivors.
However, the maximum range at which survivors can see each other during Nightfall has been increased to 54 meters. Previously, it was only 24 meters, which was terrible because players would have to stick close to each other if they wanted to work together and survive.
