Cooldown: 80 seconds. The affected Hunter will be immune to this effect for 40 seconds after their outline disappears.
- New Talent [Mutual Support]: You and injured Survivors who are not being pursued can see each other.
- New Talent [Telepathy]: Highlights all Survivors for 5 seconds every 40 seconds upon activating the Exit Gate.

Negative Play and Cheating Penalties
It has recently come to our attention that a small number of players have been found guilty of non-participation, negative play, and cheating, all of which significantly affect the experience of other players and threaten the game's fairness. In the future, we will intensify the punishments for such behaviors in order to provide a healthy gaming environment for everyone. We also encourage you to use the in-game reporting system to provide us with feedback when encountering negative behavior. Let us work together to maintain order and integrity in the Manor.
