## Change Log

### Patch 2.5.0

* ***Change:*** Updated the description to reflect that it does not trigger when the Survivor is in the Dying State or affected by Traps.

### Patch 5.5.0

* ***Buff:*** increased the initial Token count from **3 Tokens** to **4 Tokens**.
	+ This change was motivated by the addition of numerous Aura-reading Unlockables since the original addition of this Perk.

### Patch 5.6.0

* ***Quality of Life:*** **Distortion** no longer loses Tokens when standing inside the radius of Boon: Shadow Step.

### Patch 6.1.0

* ***Rework:*** added a way to recharge the Perk.
	+ ***Buff:*** removed the stipulation of not working when caught in a Killer Trap.
	+ ***Quality of Life:*** every **30 seconds** spent in the Killer's Terror Radius, grants **1 Token**.
		- The Perk plays an audio cue when a Token is used.
	+ ***Nerf:*** reduced the starting Tokens back from **4 Tokens** to **3 Tokens.**

## Audio Cue

Whenever a Token is consumed by **Distortion**, this sound cue will play:

## Trivia

* Should the Aura-reveal duration exceed the maximum duration **Distortion** can shield you for, another **Token** will be consumed, if available, to shield you again.
If there are no more **Tokens** left, your Aura will be revealed for the remainder of the Aura-reveal duration.
* It is ***not*** advised to use **Distortion** together with Object of Obsession, as it will quickly lose Tokens due to the regular Aura-reveal.
* The initial quote in the flavour text is a reference to *"Freyja"*, the Goddess of love, sex, beauty, fertility, gold, seiðr (magic of fortune-telling), war, and death in Norse mythology.
* **Distortion** will ***not*** lose Tokens while the Killer is affected by the ***Blindness*** **Status Effect**.

## Video

*Note that in the Video below the Killer has Hex: Undying, allowing them to see Survivor Auras when they are close to a Dull Totem.
Therefore this Aura-reading effect is cancelled by* Distortion *(when it has at least 1 or more Tokens)*.
