Notes:
This skill coats you in zombie guts, tricking enemies into ignoring you as they would other zombies. The player can use this ability by holding ‘V’ over the corpse of a zombie. This ability cannot be used more than once on the same corpse, and cannot be used with Gas Tank infected.
It lasts for 45 seconds, regardless of if the player is moving, standing still, swinging their weapon, grapple-hooking, etc. The only thing which decreases the duration is sprinting (it lasts 24 seconds if fully sprinting the entire time), and being submerged in water (instantly washes the effect off).
Oddly, while under the effects of camouflage, the player is granted a potent night vision (especially useful in pitch-black conditions).
Tip: When activated, your character will perform an animation which smears guts on-screen, obstructing your view. Dashing or jumping just beforehand will cancel the animation, keeping your view clear while still granting you the full benefits of the camouflage.
PRE-REQUISITE: None
REQUIRES: Survival Level 12
Learn how to create and use a Grappling Hook to traverse the environment with greater freedom. If you ever lose your Grappling Hook, you can get a new one from the Quartermaster.
The grappling hook is unlocked at survivor level 12 and can be used to quickly travel large distances. Though it does have a short cooldown between uses, which is extended once the player reaches survivor level 24.
This skill is particularly helpful in speeding up the player’s time in getting from one area of a map to a desired location. It is also useful for escaping hordes of undead, especially from the faster Virals that have the ability to climb structures when giving chase.
The grappling hook can also be used as a weapon to shoot at enemies, however, it is limited in that regard.
For the player to use the hook it must be equipped in the equipment slot.
Will cause Bombers to explode on contact.
