Basic Strategies
Staying Alive
As an inexperienced thespian you lot should rest hidden from the hunter. If you lot are coming from Dead By Daylight you lot may endure used to engaging amongst killers without likewise much risk; this is non the same inwards Death Garden. You are unlikely to escape a chase unless the hunter messes up, so you lot should endure prepared for most chases to resultant inwards you lot beingness downed. When you lot are downed at that spot is a high guide a opportunity the hunter volition instantly execute you; the solely argue a hunter wouldn’t instantly execute you lot is because they desire to farm you. For this argue you lot should acquire inwards your top priority to avoid beingness establish yesteryear the hunter until you lot sympathise the marrow gameplay better.
Hunters tin withdraw heed you lot moving, so if the hunter is nearby you lot should aim to minimise your motility to avoid beingness found. Similarly hunters tin hear/see you lot shooting bolts, so don’t shoot bolts when the hunter is nearby.
Crouching inwards a bush makes you lot essentially invisible to the hunter. Hunters tin utilisation their stun mightiness to banking concern check bushes, simply ofttimes don’t due to the overwhelming number of bushes on the maps. This makes bushes i of the best places to hide.
If you lot rest yet for likewise long in addition to so you lot volition endure revealed for the hunter. This agency you lot cannot pass likewise long hiding inwards bush. H5N1 way to circumvent this number is to enshroud inwards a grouping of bushes, so you lot tin crouch walk unopen to inside the bushes. This motility should foreclose you lot from beingness revealed.
Avoid areas of the map which receive got a lot of active drones. While it is possible to temporarily deactivate drones the hunter volition endure aware that a drone has been deactivated, hence alerting the hunter that soul is likely inwards that area. You tin utilisation this to your payoff yesteryear shooting downwards drones which are on the contrary side of the map, potentially tricking the hunter to investigate that area.
Similarly, if the hunter is spending a important amount of fourth dimension inwards i surface area of the map you lot should avoid that surface area of the map. It tin endure tempting to rest inwards that surface area of the map if you lot receive got gotten familiar amongst it since you lot don’t desire to waste product fourth dimension travelling to in addition to learning the layout of some other utilisation of the map. But you’ll also endure wasting fourth dimension having to enshroud from the hunter inwards that area, in addition to at that spot is picayune to gain from the additional risk.
The invisibility mightiness bolt volition foreclose you lot from beingness revealed yesteryear hacked crates in addition to revealing light. This is allows you lot to transcend yesteryear a revealed surface area without shooting downwards a drone, important you lot tin traverse the map inwards a to a greater extent than stealthy manner. It also allows you lot to rest hidden during the halt game when the entire map is gradually revealed.
It may endure a bad stance to run direct towards the go out gate when the halt of the game is triggered. This is because the surface area closest to the spawn gates is revealed commencement in addition to it takes several seconds for the go out gates to spawn, important you lot volition endure revealed to the Hunter without whatever agency of escape for several seconds if you lot instantly caput towards the go out gates. It may endure meliorate to await a few seconds, in addition to so dodge gyre towards the go out gates i time they are almost fully spawned.
Teamwork
The best fourth dimension to deliver blood is when the hunter is occupied amongst some other player. If you lot tin come across the hunter is boosting over to some other thespian delivering blood or that some other thespian is getting chased, in addition to so you lot should deliver blood. The hunter tin solely focus on i scavenger at a time, so they can’t chase you lot if they’re busy elsewhere.
Try to assist other scavengers. The to a greater extent than scavengers that are endure the to a greater extent than potential distractions the hunter has, which volition acquire inwards easier for you lot to deliver blood. If you lot tin come across soul is getting chased nigh you, consider using your mightiness bolt to assist them.
Shoot downwards drones whenever possible, fifty-fifty if they are on the other side of the map. Shooting downwards drones helps other scavengers traverse the map to a greater extent than easily in addition to is an slowly root of XP.
It is possible to revive downed players using the heal bolt. The timing to attain this earlier the hunter executes a downed scavenger is precise, simply possible. Staying unopen to soul amongst the heal bolt tin endure a skillful stance equally a novel player.
It is hard to escape when you lot are the solely scavenger remaining, equally the hunter volition brand a beeline towards you lot the minute you lot are revealed during the halt game. Try to proceed your team-mates endure for the entire match, if solely so the Hunter may become for them instead of you lot during the halt game.
Teamwork actions (such equally reviving downed players) rewards you lot amongst a lot of XP compared to other actions (such shooting downwards constructs). If you lot desire to flat upwards rapidly travail to rest unopen to your squad mates in addition to assist them whenever possible.
