DEOGEN

ENTITY • EVIDENCE: DOTS • WRITING • SPIRIT BOX

← BACK

THE DEOGEN BEHAVES THE OPPOSITE OF MOST ENTITIES: IT SLOWS DOWN SIGNIFICANTLY AS IT GETS CLOSER TO PLAYERS DURING A HUNT, INSTEAD OF SPEEDING UP. ON THE OTHER HAND, IT CAN LOCATE ALL HIDDEN PLAYERS DURING A HUNT — SO HIDING ISN'T ENOUGH, YOU NEED TO KEEP MOVING AND WEAVE AROUND OBJECTS TO MAXIMIZE YOUR CHANCES. IT HAS A UNIQUE SCREAM (1-IN-3 CHANCE) IF YOU USE THE SPIRIT BOX WITHIN 1 METER OF IT, WHICH IS ALSO A REQUIRED EVIDENCE. IT SHARES THE SAME RAPID FLICKER AS THE ONI DURING A HUNT, WHICH MAKES IT EASIER TO PHOTOGRAPH.

HOW TO IDENTIFY IT

PRIORITY

WATCH ITS SPEED DURING A HUNT — IF IT SLOWS DOWN AS IT APPROACHES, IT'S PROBABLY A DEOGEN
USE THE SPIRIT BOX NEARBY AND LISTEN FOR ITS SPECIAL SCREAM
DON'T STAY FROZEN IN YOUR HIDING SPOT. MOVE, WEAVE AROUND OBJECTS, AND STAY MOBILE TO MAXIMIZE YOUR CHANCES OF SURVIVAL
❗IT HAS A REQUIRED EVIDENCE: SPIRIT BOX

HUNTING BEHAVIOR

CAN HUNT AT 40% AVERAGE SANITY
MOVES AT A MINIMUM SPEED OF 0.4 M/S
MOVES AT A MAXIMUM SPEED OF 3 M/S

SPECIAL MECHANICS

HAS A UNIQUE SCREAM (33% CHANCE) WHEN THE SPIRIT BOX IS USED WITHIN 1 METER OF IT
SLOWS DOWN SIGNIFICANTLY AS IT GETS CLOSER TO PLAYERS DURING A HUNT: MINIMUM SPEED OF 0.4 M/S BELOW 2.42 M, MAXIMUM SPEED OF 3 M/S BEYOND 5.32 M, PROGRESSIVE IN BETWEEN
THE DEOGEN HAS THE ABILITY TO LOCATE ALL HIDDEN PLAYERS DURING A HUNT
SHARES THE SAME FLICKER AS THE ONI DURING A HUNT, WHICH MAKES IT EASIER TO PHOTOGRAPH

STRATEGY

DO NOT HIDE, KEEP MOVING AND USE FURNITURE TO BREAK ITS LINE OF SIGHT: IT LOCATES ALL HIDDEN PLAYERS DURING A HUNT, SO STAYING STILL IS USELESS. TAKE ADVANTAGE OF IT SLOWING DOWN AS IT GETS CLOSER TO CIRCLE AROUND AN OBSTACLE AND CREATE DISTANCE.
