Behavior Interactive has just released the 7.1.1 update patch notes for Dead by Daylight. This update arrives shortly after Patch 7.1.0, which introduced Nicolas Cage. It focuses on solving annoying and gameplay-damaging issues rather than introducing major changes and features. These include fixing an issue that caused Fast Vaults to have the same vaulting distance as the Slow and Medium Vaults and more. That said, let’s review the Dead by Daylight 7.1.1 update patch notes.
Patch Notes for the Dead by Daylight 7.1.1 Update

- Updated the Reactive Healing Perk to round up to 100% healing when there is only a tiny bit of healing missing (for example: instead of healing a Survivor to 96.4%, it would complete the healing at 100%)
