Descriptions & Patch Notes

When you have healed other Survivors for the equivalent of one health state, Second Wind activates. If you are already afflicted by the Broken status effect, Second Wind does not activate.

While Second Wind is activated, the next time you are unhooked or you unhook yourself, you are affected by the Broken status effect. After a total duration of 28/24/20 seconds, Second Wind automatically heals you from injured to healthy.

Second Wind deactivates once you become healthy or if you are put into the dying state before Second Wind successfully triggers. You lose the Broken status effect.

Broken prevents Survivors from being healed.
