Identity V - Analysis and Strategy of Faro Lady

2024-09-02 17:10:16

Decode Type: This type of Survivor excels at decoding Cipher Machines quickly, thus reducing the time it takes for the Team to activate all of them.

Weakness: Poor self-defense and relies on the protection of Teammates.

 

1.External Trait:Cloak

Cloaks herself when within 18 meters of the Hunter, increasing Exposure by 6.25% every second. Moving away from the Hunter reduces Exposure by 5% per second. However, moving away with over 40% Exposure will alert the Hunter.

Reaching 100% Exposure or making large movements removes the cloaked effect, which requires 40 seconds to be activated again.

When Exposure is below 40%, dropping Pallets, vaulting through windows, decoding Cipher Machines, and activating the Exit Gate will not end the cloaked effect.

The cloaked effect's cool down is paused when knocked down or immobilized.

Footsteps are concealed while cloaked, but a trail is left behind for 3 seconds. Moving over an existing trail will not create a new trail.

 



Tips:When a certain distance away from the Hunter, you can turn invisible, but the effect will gradually diminish. It is important to quickly move away from the Hunter when the exposure progress is below 40%, as the decay of the invisibility effect slows down once you are far enough. If the exposure progress is above 40%, you can also choose not to leave to avoid alerting the Hunter. Additionally, try to avoid engaging in extensive interactions, as this can easily end the invisibility state. When too close to the Hunter, you can boldly walk in the opposite direction to confuse them. In the invisible state, footprints on the ground will not refresh, allowing you to use this to mislead the Hunter in the area.



 

2.Cane External Trait:Aromatherapy

Carries an Aromatherapy Cane that can be swung to disperse a trail of aroma visible to the Hunter for 3 seconds.

 

Tips: Aromatherapy can confuse the Hunter, but it is best used in conjunction with the Cloak. It is not recommended to use the Aromatherapy after losing the cloaked state. The Aromatherapy 's scent will automatically spread forward and correct itself when it hits an obstacle, even if there are height differences. The Aromatherapy belongs to consumable items; after use, you can replenish items by searching chests, and you can choose to release it actively when necessary to obtain other items.

 

 

3.External Trait:Dexterous

"Faro Lady's" tricks extend beyond the borders of the blackjack table.If the Decoding Progress is below 10% when she starts decoding a Cipher Machine, she can immediately increase its Decoding Progress to 10%.She can target a partially decoded Cipher Machine that is not being actively decoded. When she decodes another Cipher Machine, the targeted Cipher Machine loses 1% of its Decoding Progress every second while increasing her Decoding Speed by 25%/20%/15%. The Decoding Speed boost decreases as the distance between her and the targeted Cipher Machine increases.

 

Tips: The Dexterous can steal progress from the Cipher Machines, but this ability should not be used indiscriminately, as even stealing from a Cipher Machine nearby will result in an overall loss of progress. Therefore, in actual combat, you can choose to steal from a Machine guarded by the Hunter or from Cipher Machines with very little progress left by teammates. Additionally, avoid designating Cipher Machines randomly, as the progress of designated Cipher Machines will also be known to the Hunter. You can use this ability to observe the distribution of Cipher Machines and the progress of teammates deciphering them to make better decoding decisions.

 

 

4.External Trait:Disarray

Tense situations affect "Faro Lady's" ability to make decisions,increasing the time it takes to rescue a Survivor on the Rocket Chair by 60%.

 

Tips:"Faro Lady's" rescue speed is slow; in actual combat, try to avoid rescues and focus more on decoding Cipher Machines.

 

Overall, the "Faro Lady" is not difficult to pick up, but it requires a flexible mindset and a clear understanding of the overall situation. The "Faro Lady" has a unique decoding mechanism that can help the team improve decoding speed, and she can also use invisibility to distract the Hunter. However, to proficiently use the "Faro Lady" and maximize her value, it is essential to practice extensively.
