GINX

In the horror game Dead by Daylight, the Shrine of Secrets is an in-game store where players can purchase perks using Iridescent Shards. When those perks are purchased, they are instantly unlocked on all killers or survivors; you won't need to spend any bloodpoints on your characters to get the perks you've purchased, saving you a ton in the long run. The Shrine refreshes each week on a Tuesday, with two new perks for survivors and two for killers. Now let's take a look at the Shrine for this week.

What Time Does DBD Shrine Of Secrets Reset?

The Shrine of Secrets used to refresh at the stroke of midnight every Wednesday. But in more recent months the Shrine of Secrets has reset on a Tuesday at 5pm UTC.

The next shrine reset will take place on 7 May 2024. You can see on the countdown timer below how long you have before the next Shrine of Secrets goes live.

What Is The Dead By Daylight Shrine of Secrets This Week?

The Dead by Daylight Shrine of Secrets this week is:

  • Alien Instinct - A unique perk belonging to The Xenomorph Alien
  • Dragon's Grip - A unique perk belonging to The Blight
  • Red Herring - A unique perk belonging to Zarina Kassir
  • Wiretap - A unique perk belonging to Ada Wong

Below is a closer look at the perks in the Shrine this week, and how they work.

Alien Instinct

This perk activates when you hook a Survivor.

You see the aura of the farthest injured Survivor for 5 seconds and that Survivor is Oblivious for 16/18/20 seconds.

Oblivious prevents Survivors from hearing or being affected by the Killer's Terror Radius.

Dragon's Grip

After damaging a generator, for the next 30 seconds, the first Survivor that interacts with it will scream, revealing their location for 4 seconds, and becoming afflicted with the Exposed status effect for 60 seconds.

Dragon's Grip has a cooldown of 120/100/80 seconds.

Exposed Survivors will be downed by basic attacks even if uninjured.

Red Herring

You've noticed that people pay attention to whatever makes the loudest noise.

After repairing a generator for at least 3 seconds, it will be highlighted to you with a yellow aura. The generator stays highlighted until it is fully repaired, you repair a new generator, or enter a locker.

Entering any locker will trigger a loud noise indicator for The Killer at the highlighted generator's location.

  • Red Herring can only be triggered once every 60/50/40 seconds.

Wiretap

You know that the best way to stay one step ahead is to keep tabs on the competition.

Wiretap activates after completing a total of 50% worth of repair progress on generators.

When standing next to a generator, press the Active Ability button 1 to install a Wiretap, which stays active for 100/110/120 seconds.

Affected generators will be revealed to all Survivors by a yellow aura. Only one Wiretap can be active on a generator.

  • When the Killer enters within 14 meters of the generator, their aura is revealed to all Survivors.
  • Wiretap deactivates when the generator is damaged by the Killer or when the timer expires.
