Bug #1753

Buckle Up Perk Misleading Description and Unexpected Haste Effect

Status:	Open
Priority:	Medium
Added by:	MrPixel on March 8, '26
Assigned to:	Unassigned
Due date:
Reported for:	9.4.2
Actual Result:	50% haste for 5 seconds and also no scratch marks for the same duration.
Expected Result:	Buckle Up shouldn't activate.
Severity:	Minor
Reproducibility:	Always
Platform:	Steam
Additional Notes & Comments:	I actually would like if this bug is intended, as this would make Buckle Up more viable.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Equip Buckle up and a perk that lets recover by yourself from dying state.
2. Enter dying state by any means.
3. Recover from the dying state.

Explanation

Buckle Up gives the 50% haste + suppressed scratch marks for 5 seconds, if you pick yourself up with e.g. Unbreakable or Plot Twist. (Conviction doesn't seem to work for some reason.)

The perk description for Buckle up makes it seems like this isn't intended, because picking yourself up shouldn't count as "completing healing a survivor from the dying state to injured".
