Advices [Solo]
Use every battery you see. If can’t use it – just toggle night vision for a moment.
Use every bottle and brick you see (damage enemies, headshot’em when possible), keep 1 or 2 bricks/bottles for the end of the trial and use it to get to the shuttle safely.
Always keep 1 (better 2, if you have upgraded your inventory up to 4 slots) bricks or bottles. If you have upgraded a perk, that allows you to use brick/bottle to skip Hider jumpscare – you can avoid being damaged.
Use every adrenaline shot you found, cuz they’re pretty much useless – there are no places in any map where you can’t just jump into the dark and sneak or silent-jump away from the enemy.
Use rig every time it recharges, if you found rig recharger – use the rig and recharge it.
Bash blocked doors/barricades.
Avoid any traps, damage, sanity loss.
Disarm traps!
Advices [Co-op]
Defuse door traps and use batteries from it.
Use any batteries that you sure won’t be need/used by your teammates, for example, batteries that are far from everyone.
You can do a “stash” with batteries in somewhere, your teammates will take it if they need, and you could use all the batteries from this “stash” closer to the end of the trial.
Use every bottle and brick you see (damage enemies, headshot’em when possible), keep 1 or 2 bricks/bottles for the end of the trial and use it to get to the shuttle safely with your team.
Always keep 1 (better 2, if you have upgraded your inventory up to 4 slots) bricks or bottles. If you have upgraded a perk, that allows you to use brick/bottle to skip Hider jumpscare – you can avoid being damaged or you can just help your friends with these.
Help your teammates, revive them, do cooperative actions.
Use your rig when it possible, if you found rig recharger – find yourself an opportunity to use it (heal ur teammates; stun enemies; x-ray).
On lower difficulties – use every adrenaline shot you find.
On higher difficulties – share it with your teammates if you’re skilled enough/don’t need it.
Bash blocked doors and barricades.
Avoid any traps, damage, sanity loss.
Disarm traps!
