Dead by Daylight Vecna abilities and perks

Because it's you against 4 other players as a Killer in Dead by Daylight, you’ll have to rely on knowing your limitations when it comes to abilities, power, and perks. Here are all of Vecna's abilities and perks.

Power

Vecna's powers are there to antagonize and terrify the world of the Survivors with pain and power. His search for ultimate control has led Vecna to many strange realms, but entering the world of the Entity is something truly different.

But Vecna is not afraid, for his power is great due to the Book of Vile Darkness. With this book, Vecna gains abilities that some would consider unnatural, and all of them are dangerous.

Abilities

Thanks to the Book of Vile Darkness, Vecna is able to cast 4 spells against the Survivors.

• Fly - Vecna is granted flying speed for a short time, allowing him to pass over obstacles in his path.
• Flight of the Damned - Vecna conjures spectral entities that pass through obstacles and cause harm to all they hit.
• Mage Hand - A phantasmic hand that completes tasks such as holding and blocking the use of pallets.
• Dispelling Sphere - A moving Area of Effect sphere that reveals Survivors and disables Magical Items.

Perks

• Languid Touch - When a Survivor scares a Crow inside your Terror Radius, they become Exhausted for a brief duration.
• Dark Arrogance – You are Blinded and Stunned for longer, but you gain faster Vault Speed.
