Rules of the game “In the wake of the wind”
The participants of the game are divided into two teams. The Rebel team can have up to three people, while the Hunter team can only have one player. The Rebels are given thirty seconds to hide in the selected region, after which the hunter must find all players within three minutes. If the hunter fails to find at least one of the three rebels, he loses. Depending on how long it takes the hunter to find all members of the opposing team, additional bonus points are awarded to him.
How to play Hunter. How to quickly find the rebels and win the game
The hunter uses several skills to find the disguised rebels:
- Aura of Senses: during the activation of the ability, the aura of feelings can tell if one of the Rebels is nearby. At this point, an exclamation mark will appear above your character. If this happens, you should definitely use the “Gotcha!” use of the hunter.
- Sixth Sense: indicates the approximate direction to the nearest disguised Rebel when using the ability. This ability can be chosen in place of the Sense Aura ability.
- “Got!”: use this ability to disguise a rebel and capture him. After that, the found rebel is eliminated from the game.
In addition to basic skills, fighters can use one of three skills that replace elemental blast. When the game timer passes the minute, a glowing orb will appear anywhere on the map, which you can pick up and replenish the ability. You can choose a skill before starting the game:
- Omniscience: this ability replaces Elemental Burst and can only be replenished once per game. While activating the ability, you can see the location of all Rebels on the mini-map.
- Buoy: unmasks a random rebel and captivates them for a short time. If the fighter has time to get to the opponent, he will catch such a rebel without much difficulty.
- Hunter Intuition: after activating the ability, he removes the disguise from one of the Rebels and does not allow him to disguise for some time. All Rebels will be notified when this ability is used.
After the start of the game, it is best for the hunter to explore the game map using skills “Aura of Feelings” and “Sixth Sense” and try not to use the skill “Do you have!”. The fact is that many rebels will try to confuse you and use the “Decoy” skill. If you have the skill “Gotcha!” on a falsely camouflaged item, your hero’s line of sight is restricted for a few seconds, allowing the Rebels to take advantage and change cover.
When looking for opponents, be sure to inspect the tops of trees and hard-to-reach places on the game map. Usually the rebels use the most unusual positions for camouflage, making it difficult to find them. It’s also worth paying attention to the odd movements of barrels, chairs, lanterns, and other objects, as rebels in disguise can move around the game map.
If you can’t find the rebels with your default skills, wait for a glowing orb to appear on the map and activate one of the three selected skills that replace the element explosion.
How to play as the Rebels. What is the best disguise to use and how to hide from the hunter
The Rebels have several special abilities that they can use during the game:
- Invisibility: when this ability is activated, you become invisible to the hunter. If a fighter uses “Gotcha!” abilities near you while this effect is active, or “Sixth Sense”, you will be exposed.
- Ace: creates a decoy on the map that can confuse the hunter. If a hunter uses the “Gotcha!” ability near the bait, the bait will explode and the hunter’s range of vision will be reduced. You can install this skill in place of the Invisibility skill before starting the game.
- Disguise: The skill allows you to disguise yourself as the environment. On some maps you can transform into a barrel, a chair, a column or a lantern. Disguise is best used with the Lure ability to trick the hunter.
- Flight of a star: this ability replaces Elemental Burst. Like the hunter’s Omniscience ability, you can replenish the ability by picking up a Glowing Orb. During the duration of the skill, your character’s movement speed is slightly increased and you can run away from the fighter. Remember that the game map is limited and has a natural terrain. During the escape, try not to drive yourself into a dead end.
The game takes place on one of eight cards, which are chosen at random. If you are familiar with the area, it will not be difficult to hide from the hunter. Otherwise, you must act according to the situation.
First, look around the map for tall trees and check what items you can transform into by disguising. The fact is that on some cards you can turn into small lights that are very difficult to see with the naked eye. Trees can be used as shelter by climbing the topmost branch and standing on it.
If you use lanterns as a disguise, remember that such objects begin to glow during the dynamic change from day to night. If this happens, it will be easier for the hunter to catch you.
Don’t forget to use the Lure ability. For example, you disguised yourself as a lantern and decided to hide at the entrance to the gazebo. But there are no similar objects nearby, and your lantern will stand out in the overall scheme. Install a similar lantern on the other side so that the hunter does not suspect you.
