Obsession is an External Trait that belongs to the "Prisoner". As an external trait, it is a passive ability that the character starts the game with.
Trait Details[]
The decoding speed of the "Prisoner" is increased by 10% when decoding a Cipher Machine on a connection. Once a calibration fails, his rigid time is decreased by 30%.
However, such obsession also weakens the Prisoner's perception of his surroundings, such that the distance of his detection of the Hunters is decreased by 20%.

"Prisoner's" Tips:
- In general, picking a Cipher Machine that is located in an area that provides you with a large field of view will help increase your own situational awareness and preparedness.
- The "Prisoner" is weak against various aggressive high-mobility Hunters such as Geisha, Wu Chang, "Undead", and The Breaking Wheel, as they will appear close to you before you realize what is happening.
- Even if you need one last Cipher Machine to complete, you should make a connection as doing so will grant you a 10% Decoding Bonus for the "Prisoner" which is better than nothing.
- Due to his increased decoding speed on a connected machine, the "Prisoner" is a great late-game character that is able to focus on completing ciphers as quickly and efficiently as possible. However, also due to this trait, "Prisoner" will be a huge target in the early game for experienced Hunters. Prioritize your safety during early game by quickly hiding if you sense the hunter is patrolling near you or by walking slowly to not produce any footprints that could help Hunters track you down.
Hunter Tips
- Hunters with an emphasis of aggressive playstyle will generally have minimal struggle in terms of bringing down a lone "Prisoner". The "Prisoner's" small fear radius will allow you to be able to plan an ambush with far greater chance of success than most survivors.
