Dead by Daylight is a pretty well-known horror game at this point. One player plays as the killer, the other four are the survivors. One of the survivor characters available to play as in the game is Kate Denson. Introduced to the game in Chapter 8: Curtain Call, she plays the role of the Hopeful Songbird. Now, Dead by Daylight characters have certain character-specific perks. Kate is no exception, having a perk called Windows of Opportunity.
There are a total of three perks available to the player while playing as Kate. They are ‘Dance With Me’, ‘Windows of Opportunity’, and ‘Boil Over’. These perks provide the player with various enhancements, and they can be quite powerful if used right. This is why the developers have made changes to these perks over time, which is why you might be wondering if some of them are still worth it or not. Or it’s even possible the effects they have might have changed, which would leave you wondering if these perks (and Windows of Opportunity in particular) are any good. So, keep reading this guide until the end to find out.
Dead by Daylight (DBD) Windows of opportunity use & is it good?
So what exactly does Windows of Opportunity do? Basically, it reveals the auras of breakable walls, pallets, and windows that are within a certain range of you. This range depends on the tier of the perk, with it being 24 meters at the first tier, 28 for the second, and 32 for the third and final tier. You can upgrade the perk’s tier by increasing Kate’s prestige. At Prestige One, this perk is unlocked for all characters. Upgrade Kate’s prestige to two to get the second tier, and upgrade her prestige to three to get to tier three. Highlighting breakable stuff is obviously quite useful, as the survivor can get to places using routes not accessible before, giving them an edge over the hunter. Yes, this indeed makes this perk quite useful and good.
One thing to note is that there has been some confusion in the community regarding whether this perk was nerfed. So to clear things up, the in-game description changed, but there was no nerf to the perk itself. It is the same as it was previously. For the hundred percenters out there, there is also an achievement related to this perk. The ‘Adept Kate’ achievement is unlocked when you escape a trial solely using Kate’s three unique perks that we mentioned previously. So if you were thinking about getting that achievement, there you go.
