Chemical Trap
Teachable by Ellen Ripley
Traps a dropped Pallet so breaking it sprays and slows the Killer.
Description
"In the Fog, an officer must adapt to the materials at hand."
After repairing Generators for a total of 20 %, Chemical Trap activates:
- Press the Active Ability button while near a dropped Pallet to install a Trap, which stays active for 40/50/60 seconds.
- When the Killer breaks the Trapped Pallet, its Trap explodes, spraying the Killer with a chemical compound:
- Causes the Killer to suffer from a -50 % Hindered Status Effect for 4 seconds.
Chemical Trap deactivates after triggering successfully or once the timer runs out.
The Auras of Trapped Pallets are revealed to all Survivors in yellow.
