Bug #4349

Dead Hard and Resurgence not activating after rescue from Pyramid Head's Cage of Atonement

Status:	Open
Priority:	High
Added by:	vvu on June 18, '26
Assigned to:	Unassigned
Due date:
Reported for:	10.0.0
Actual Result:	Dead Hard should become available after being rescued from the cage if all perk conditions are met. Resurgence should grant its healing progress bonus when rescued from the cage, similar to being unhooked.
Expected Result:	Dead Hard does not activate or become usable after being rescued from the cage. Resurgence does not provide its healing progress bonus after being rescued from the cage.
Severity:	Major
Reproducibility:	Always
Platform:	Steam
Additional Notes & Comments:	The issue appears to occur specifically when being rescued from Pyramid Head's Cage of Atonement rather than from a standard hook. It is unclear whether this is intended behavior or a bug, but the perks' descriptions may lead players to expect them to work after a cage rescue in the same way they work after being unhooked.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Equip Dead Hard and/or Resurgence on a survivor.
2. Enter a match against The Executioner (Pyramid Head).
3. Become Tormented and get sent to a Cage of Atonement.
4. Have another survivor rescue you from the cage.
5. Attempt to use Dead Hard while injured and/or check whether Resurgence grants its healing progress bonus after being uncaged.

Explanation

Dead Hard and Resurgence do not activate after being rescued from a Cage of Atonement (Pyramid Head)
When you are rescued from a cage created by The Executioner (Pyramid Head), the survivor perks Dead Hard and Resurgence do not function as expected after being uncaged. dead hard does not activate, resurgence does not give the extra healing progress. its as if you haven't been hooked in the first place but you still have been 'hooked'
