Generator progress is your default job, but noise changes the route.
The first useful survivor action is finding a generator. The white gauge zone adds progress; a miss can break the generator, make noise, and invite the killer. When that happens, rotate into a hiding lane instead of gifting a straight chase.
- Keep your camera moving while repairing.
- Leave after a loud miss instead of gambling on greed.
- Hide behind line-of-sight breaks before the killer sees a clean path.
- Two survivors repair faster, but do not stack everyone together.
- When generators finish, rotate to a gate and look behind you while opening.
