DbD Patch Notes: Clown, Unknown, Dark Lord Buffs

• Increased how long the Afterpiece Tonic’s Hindered effect lingers after leaving smoke. 

DEV NOTE: We’ve heard your feedback that The Clown’s easier-to-activate Haste can make instigating and maintaining chases less interactive for Survivors. That, coupled with nerfs to his purple bottles has pushed players towards this frustrating tactic. To make both bottles feel like viable options without being too oppressive, we’ve adjusted the values of their most impactful qualities to strike a balance between pre-9.1.0 values and Live values. 

THE UNKNOWN

- Increased the additional time added to Weakened when injured by a UVX projectile. 
- Increased movement speed recovery after teleporting. 
- Increased camera vertical range. 
- Adjusted several add-ons. 

[p align="center"] [/p]DEV NOTE: The Unknown is largely considered to be fun to play as and against, and we want to preserve that while adapting to the current state of gameplay. We’ve buffed the UVX slightly, while also taking what we learned from The Animatronic to allow for orbitals, improving UVX aiming and making for even more fun gameplay. 
It’s also likely no surprise that Blurry Photo is the most used add-on for the Unknown, given the importance of speed recovery. To help create an opportunity for more add-on experimentation, we’ve converted a portion of this add-on into a basekit buff, while also doing a pass on other add-ons that are due for some adjustments.

Slightly reduced Hellfire cooldown. 
Increased total Hellfire pillars by 1.
