Mangled is a Status Effect featured in Dead by Daylight that is applied exclusively to Survivors.

Mechanic

The Mangled Status Effect is a debuffing effect applied whenever a healthy Survivor is hit and injured by the Killer with a Basic Attack.

The effect causes an increase to the affected Survivor's Healing time by +25 %, by reducing the Healing speed on them by -20 %, both when healing themselves or when being healed by other Survivors.

The effect only applies for a limited time, running on a timer that is determined by the Unlockable inflicting it, allowing Players to choose to heal through it or wait it out.
