Dead by Daylight Shrine of Secrets perks for January 4 - January 10, 2023

This section found in the in-game store of Dead by Daylight gives players the chance to unlock perks from Survivors or Killers still unavailable for them, or have not yet earned the highest tier.

To unlock a perk through the Shine of Secrets, you’ll need to spend Iridescent Shards per perk. Tier 1 perks can cost 2,000 shards.

Here’s the description of each perk.

Killer Perks

Shadowborn (The Wraith) - Increases your field of view by 9/12/15%.

Infectious Fright (The Plague) - Whenever a Survivor is put into the dying state by any means, all other Survivors within your Terror Radius will scream and reveal their current location to you for 4/5/6 seconds.

Perks

Left Behind (Bill Overbeck) - When you are the last Survivor remaining in the Trial, the aura of the hatch is revealed to you when you are within 24/28/32 seconds.

Buckle Up (Ash Williams) - You can determine the Recovery progress of dying Survivors by the intensity of the aura at a distance of 48 meters away. When healing another Survivor from the dying state to the injured state, the killer’s aura is revealed to both of you for 6/8/10 seconds.

Which perks are worth getting this week?

This isn’t the best start for 2023 for players hoping to nap key perks to spice up their loadouts.

For Killers, Shadowborn is actually not a bad perk to have as an added increase in your field of view will give the Killer a chance to spot survivors more easily. This isn’t a vital perk, but it has it’s benefits. It’s also easy to get without using Shards as everyone has access to The Wraith to earn this perk through the Bloodweb.

Infectious Fright is the best perk in this list as it instantly feeds you information for each Survivor you down, making you aware of possible flashlight saves nearby, or simply letting you know if there’s someone else you can chase as you leave the Survivor you just caught slugged.

As for Survivors, Buckle Up and Left Behind are too situational that it’s hard to recommend. Left Behind only comes into play if you’re the last player standing, and Buckle Up needs a Killer that leaves Survivors on the ground to have any value. Not the best perks to spend your precious shards on.

Dead by Daylight’s Shrine of Secrets reset every Wednesday at 12 AM UTC / 8 AM GMT +8.
