How lucky are your rolls ?
Dead by Daylight has already announced its Dungeons and Dragons certify chapter , but it ’s last clip to line up out more about it . The D&D x DBD crossover voter is a full chapter , which stand for we are getting a Modern Survivor , Killer , and a Map .
Despite the Beholder in the video that Behaviour Interactive ( BHVR ) deal on their hug drug account , many devotee in reality guess that Vecna — an iconic baddie in the cosmos of D&D — is go to be the Killer of the chapter . In DBD , Vecna ’s power comes from the Book of Vile Darkness and the four while he can cast with it . you could trade between them at any prison term in the trial .
Much to my dashing hopes , we are n’t develop any special fundamental interaction between the Stranger Things lineament and Vecna . I ’m still keeping my digit thwart in the future tense ( maybe if we get an Eddie skin for Steve Harrington ) .
However , the best part of this Killer is the voice . Vecna is vocalize by Matt Mercer ( one of my all - clip favorite Voice Actors ) . It ’s a utter scene think his position as the DM in Critical Role .
When it hail to the Survivor , do n’t be fooled by the two fictitious character in the mental image ; there is only one Survivor in the new DnD chapter . They are similar to Legion , meaning you may choose between the two options . you’re able to either play as Aestri Yazar ( an Elf Bard ) or Baermar Uraz ( a Human Bard ) . They have the same exact Perk curing ; it ’s just the hide and your preferences on who you desire to spiel as .

you could come across these characters in the Forgotten Ruins — a new dungeon map that will be part of the Decimated Borgo region . Much like theDBD mapswith with child basement levels ( Midwich Elementary School and Gideon Meat Plant ) , this new one will also have a large underground section that you will reach through a massive column .
If you think that was all , Dead by Daylight is also introducing a new DnD - inspired mechanic for Survivors . You ’ll chance special chests in run against Vecna that open in a very fun way . You ’ll have to flap a d20 for see what you get .
If you undulate a two or three , you get a regular DBD token — just like you would from the normal chests . If you roll four to 19 , you get a magic item ( Gauntlets or Boots ) that can help you counter one of Vecna ’s spell . If you ’re lucky enough to get a Nat 20 , you’re able to get one of two wizardly item that can be used as a Perk :

The powers of these two item can be combined , though you have to be very lucky to roll a 20 both time . While these Magical particular are both very useful , they come at a price . You ’ll have to give one Health United States Department of State to use them . This can be a unspoilt strategy when you are in peril of getting strung-out . It ’s going to be reasonably fun to see how the participant are going to be creative with it , specially when injured already .
And do n’t worry — I did n’t block about Critical Fail . BHVR is keeping this mechanic as a nasty surprise for the players . you may test it out on the PTB , which will go live on May 14 . I ’m wondering if it ’s an instant Mori or something more soft . We ’ll observe out soon enough !
