Survivor win-condition checklist

Core objective

Complete objectives, keep enough players healthy to contest rescues, and survive until the clock reaches 6:00 AM.

Start by identifying the killer and the nearest safe route before committing to a generator or other task. Progress is valuable only if the team can keep it.

When pressure arrives, call the killer's location, rotate one player to support, and avoid turning a single chase into a full-team collapse.

Scrap and EXP farming route

Economy

Build sessions around the documented maximum of 500 Scrap and 3,000 EXP per round.

Once a round is already near the reward ceiling, prioritize surviving and learning routes instead of taking a reckless extra interaction for minimal value.

For unlocks, choose a class whose utility matches your team: Medic for sustain, Security Guard for information, Fighter for rescue windows, or Technician for route control.

Comms

The short shared vocabulary that makes public or premade matches easier to recover.

Name generator clusters, cameras, strong loops, dead ends, and reset areas before the round becomes chaotic.

Use a three-part call: killer name, landmark, direction. That is faster and more useful than a long description during a chase.

Full round flow: lobby to escape

Match flow

A phase-by-phase plan for preparation, the first minute, task pressure, rescue, healing, and the final escape window.

In Lobby, read the board for the next killer and map, choose complementary classes, and agree on two landmark calls before loading in.

During the first minute, identify the killer, split into safe task pairs, preserve one support angle, and avoid spending every control ability on first contact.

Mid-round, rotate away from camped objectives, heal before the next forced crossing, and send only the closest safe player to rescue while others keep pressure.

At endgame, call the chosen exit, stop taking side fights, and use Taser, Parry, Overheal, or Tesla control to secure the route rather than chase damage.

Common mistakes and safety checklist

Avoid these

The repeatable errors that turn manageable rounds into wipes.

Do not send the whole team to one generator, heal in the open, or follow a chased teammate into the same dead end.

Do not spend Taser, Parry, or Tesla control for a highlight when no rescue, objective finish, or safe reset follows.

Do not enter a loop without a second exit, and do not repeat the same corner after the killer has shown they can cut it off.

Once you are near the documented 500 Scrap and 3,000 EXP round caps, prioritize survival and route knowledge over a reckless final interaction.
