Reassurance
Description
Your presence helps allies focus, assuaging the panic associated with extreme conditions.
- Press the Active Ability button while within 6 metres of a hooked Survivor to pause their Sacrifice Process for the next 20/25/30 seconds.
- This also pauses any Skill Checks, if the Survivor is in the Struggle Phase.
Reassurance can only be used once per Survivor per Hook Instance.
Our take
Stand within 6 metres of a hooked teammate and the Active Ability button freezes their Sacrifice Process for 20/25/30 seconds, holding off the Entity and pausing any Struggle Skill Checks. It is one use per Survivor per Hook Instance, so a rescue that goes wrong has no second pause.
How to use it Press it the moment you are within 6 metres rather than as a last resort, since the clock starts on the press. Save it for hooks you can be there to defend.
Best for Hope is the clearest partner, since a paused hook and an unhooked one both need a second to breathe. Adrenaline and Sprint Burst give you the movement to reach the next one.
