Not sure if this is a bug, but you can save 20 seconds on a gen in dbd with potential energy and a speedy toolbox while using barely any toolbox charges. This video is that interaction while hitting no great skill checks
Since this is getting some attention after the otz video:
At the time I posted this I wasn't 100% sure it was a bug - my friend with 200 hours found this on accident a month ago while using the perk because he thought it looked cool. Only after testing it in several different ways and then revisiting the interaction after seeing a clip on Alby's stream did we figure out how it worked. I have been using this channel to document things that I don't think are well documented (like the quick gambit + open handed interaction which I got added to the wiki). Now that I'm confident this is unintended I would really recommend not using this outside of custom games. I'm not sure why this perk isn't killswitched but I wouldn't take BHVR's unwillingness to killswitch the perk as a sign that you won't get punished for using it. On top of that, it just sucks to face this as killer
I hate otz
So, currently we have:
1• Insane rubber-banding across all platforms for both Survivor and Killer
2• Certain maps being able to be crossed to out of bounds, potentially holding the game hostage for the killer up until 1 hour before the server closes or the killer DC's
3• A bugged perk that grants survivors the ability to save around 20 seconds of gen repair time
4• Server crashing for no reason
5• Bubba chainsaw randomly going to tantrum mode
BHvr really wants us to stop playing this game
It’s likely all cause of the update moving everything to UE5, things were bound to break especially given DBD’s spaghetti code. Just don’t understand why BHVR can’t killswitch stuff that’s clearly broken such as this perk and Hawkins until they’re fixed
this is not even close to the worst dbd has been
@@moondemon88 I know 😂😂 Just so we know how low the bar is.
The rubber banding has gotten better for me at least
Except this bug has been in the game for a long time now even before the Engine update. The bug wasn't known back then because no one uses Potential Energy because it's generally useless
Just realized i saw someone doing this in a match and was so confused why
Same didnt know what their plan was since i saw it in the Last Gen and was confused but now im Just... Mmm.... Pathetic
Im here from the new otz vid
God bless America 🇺🇸
@@shadowmak5568💀💀💀💀
Me too
Same.
Me as well
We hear you at Behavior, we have buffed Potential Energy. This is not a bug. It is a feature. Have fun
Lmao
Can't wait for my new fav perk to be killswiched for 10 months because bvhr doesn't know how to program their own game.
That's what you think. Knowing BHVR they'll nerf killer perks faster than this.
@@faaskee7071More killer perks were buffed instead of nerfed this year. Only two survivor perks were changed at all and it was Quick Gambit and DS. One still sucks and the other is now just anti tunnel
This is so unfair
No shit
@@StizzY8 no fair for the exploit not even kill switched yet m8
Still not strong enough to make a difference in my solo queue lobbies lol
You know the best part? This bug has been in the game for so long even before the Engine update. No one noticed it because no one uses the Perk, it's high-risk low reward if you're not using the toolbox
Yeah it has existed for a while
Right now DBD is in the worst state it has ever been. I'm surprised ALL these bugs and exploits are IN THE LIVE SERVERS. Typically we expect these stuff to be in PTB and be fixed when they hit the live servers. This is just ridiculous.
Nobody plays potential energy so nobody could find it on test server
Oh, thanks for informing us at Behavior! It surely looks pretty unfair for the killer side, so we’ll take measures as soon as possible and nerf the pig! Have fun!
I was wondering yesterday why the survivors I played against were doing gens so fast and they brought purple toolbox
:(
Can someone lose their account for doing this?
Yeah I see the issue here now
I hope everyone starts to abuse the shit out of it so devs are forced to kill the perk.
So one does not get banned for this?
Probably best not to risk it! If I remember correctly, some people got punished for using the flashlight locker exploit a few months ago, but the vast majority faced no punishment for it. You're probably safe if you use this but I don't think it's worth it
Does not work on ps5 fyi EDIT: it does. I did something wrong when testing 🙌🏻😭🤣
it works i tried it just now
@@Hunter_2025yh i re-tried it. Sorry.
Isn't there also an exploit on Garden of Joy?
Ye, you can get out of bounds
@@sorin_markov tf? I assume it's a random spot? If it's specific then I'd just leave
@@uzakikena8294 Wdym random/specific? It's in the same place every time, if that's what you mean
@@sorin_markov never seen it or know where it is
Generators take 90 seconds, this video is 72 seconds long, so this trick saves 18 seconds, pair it up with deja vu and resilience, and you could probably knock it down to 62 seconds
80 seconds* for a solo gen
@@MI_TurkeySlayerÀ solo gen is 90
@@GioGioZer not if you hit the skill checks correct “er”
@@MI_TurkeySlayerthey changed it to 90 charges.
Yeah this video is with zero great skill checks, and toolbox repairs increase skill check chances by 40%, so you get a lot more while charging potential energy. If you hit some greats, each one is going to add another 1% to the gen too
18 to 20 seconds is nothing. I thought it was a whole lot worse the way people were hyping it
That's effectively a permanent 28.6% repair speed bonus on one perk on all gens, provided you bring the right toolbox. Plus toolbox repairs have the added bonus of increasing skill check odds by 40%.
If you're injured with resilience for 9% speed and working on a deja vu gen for 6% speed you're only getting 15% bonus repair speed. Only a little more than half what potential energy gives, and it's on dependent on you bringing a toolbox, not a more difficult condition like the other 2 perks. So compared to pretty much every other gen speed perk in the game, potential energy is just wayyyyyy stronger with this exploit
Ye, it's fine, I bet. Nothing wrong with 4 people bringing this, maybe some BNPs and completing all gens in under 3 minutes. What's your total play time btw? 5 hours?
I know this is definitely an exploit, but has anyone done the math on how much time this actually saves?
Edit: seems to be about 20 seconds from this video
gen toon in this video 70 secs. normally its 90 sec
@@split5snip3 yeah, I know, I saw.
Normal gen time is 80* seconds. This one took 72* seconds WITH A TOOLBOX. 🤣
@@MI_TurkeySlayer uh, no. You might wanna go through some older patch notes, it's been 90 for a while now. And it's probably closer to 70 than 72, not every second of the video is spent interacting with the gen
@@TheRealMycanthropeit’s 90 if no missed skilled checks and ONLY good skill checks. If you hit all the skill checks at great or any skill checks it’s less, can be brought to 80. So technically it is 80 unless you can only hit good and more if you miss.
I feel like doing this in game but at the same time not really but then again i think about when people were using knight to use his guard to give him insane speed so i just might
Oh and can't forget about merciless storm everyone was using that too so i might but man wtf why are so many things bugs like is off the record Still bugged or is it fix now and my god kill switch mutuple maps i beg of you especially that stranger things map like if i get sent there one more time as surrivor or killer ima lose it
And now graden of joy has a bug in the map too i wonder which map will be next or which perk will be next
That is the stupidest argument ever. There are millions of players. OF COURSE there are gonna be a lot of people who exploit. Doesn't mean you should. Just seems like you know it's wrong and you're trying to clear your conscience like "Oh but others did it so I just might"
@@maxil8988 no Its not so sthu bum and you dont tell me what to do dont hate the player hate the game 🤡
Meanwhile in a different dimension this person: "well... the germans also did it"
@@samuraituff9653Haha I remember the merciless storm bug. That perk was so op for weeks and wasn't killswitched. I wonder why they don't use the killswitch
I totally don't understand what I'm watching here
Reading the description might help. If you bring a toolbox like I used in this vid, the fact that using toolbox repairs to charge potential energy doesn't consume toolbox charges means that putting tokens into the perk with enough repair speed is faster than repairing normally. So you put 1 token into potential energy, swap to toolbox repairs until 20 (or fewer if you fear skill checks), then dump the tokens and repeat. It's effectively 28.6% repair speed on one perk if you bring the right toolbox, which is super strong.
It's likely a bug though so I would avoid using it in public matches
@@vevereal so what's the toolbox, can we use any toolbox
@@bals1036 Yes, but the engineer's toolbox is the fastest
@@bals1036Yes
@@sorin_markov understandable, I wonder if speed addon also works
Ya'll do realize that this took 8 seconds off a generator, not 20? And it used most of the toolbox to do it.
The video was 72 sec long and a solo gen takes 90 sec, so it was 18 sec faster. Around 25-30% of a toolbox for a whole gen is not most of the toolbox. If you let go at 19 stacks instead of 20 you wouldn't use your toolbox at all.
@@satorikeyeto Yeah getting a skill check when you're close to 20 stacks forces you to use some of your toolbox charges, which deplete quickly with this toolbox. If you want to make sure that happens it's safest to stop charging the perk after you get a skill check around 12 tokens I think
Potential energy os such a waste of a perk. If ur using it . Its why ur losing.😅😂
Bro are you dumb or what? Did you watch the video before commenting?
right now im getting paranoid when i see a survivor with a tooblox
Yes, teach kids all over the place what they need and how to use the exploit-
Quality content
This video had less than 20 views over 3 days before otz's video 🤷♂ You can see in the description that I wasn't sure whether it was a bug when I posted it. I just didn't really see it documented or talked about so I wanted it to exist somewhere on the internet. That's all. If you're mad about people discovering this exploit you probably ought to be mad at otz
Cry about it. 😂😂😂
yeah let them use it so bhvr is forced to do something against this bullshit
Lorddd please don't let behaviour know😭🙏
It’s not a bug
I agree with you.
Indeed it's how the perk works.
But the generation process visual is bugged.
This also happens with self-care time to time.
You heal yourself and the heal process don't go up..
This is how potential energy should be
I gonna abuse hell out of this perk
based gamer
yeah nah fuck off with that
If you're talking about in public matches that's not based that's an L.
