Deception
Description
Your adventurous lifestyle requires moments of crafty misdirection.
Interacting with a Locker while holding the Sprint button has the following effects:
- Prevents you from entering the Locker, allowing you to run past it.
- Causes the doors of the Locker to swiftly open and close, feining a Survivor entering it.
- Triggers a Loud Noise Notification at the location of the Locker.
- Suppresses the creation of Scratch Marks and Pools of Blood for 3 seconds.
Deception has a cool-down of 30/25/20 seconds.
Our take
Hold Sprint while interacting with a Locker and you pass straight through it as the doors open and close to fake a Survivor entering. A Loud Noise Notification fires at the Locker while Scratch Marks and Pools of Blood are suppressed for 3 seconds, on a 30/25/20 second cool-down.
How to use it Take it when you run past Lockers under pressure. Hold it when you actually want to get inside, because Sprint held means you cannot enter.
Best for Sprint Burst and Lithe make the run past natural, and Windows of Opportunity is the third option. Deception is the pick for a survivor who wants a Locker to be cover rather than a hiding place.
