Operator is an External Trait that belongs to the Mechanic, Tracy Reznik. As an external trait, it is a passive ability that the character starts the game with.

Official Details[]

Description[]

Carries around a life-size doll, which can be destroyed with a single strike.

Mechanic's Doll: Mechanic's Doll's Cipher Machine decoding speed is reduced by 10%. When the Mechanic's doll is being controlled, or when it's not being controlled but is decoding a cipher machine, its durability will deplete.

Exclusive: Her love for the doll reduces its depletion speed by 33%. The Mechanic can control the deployed doll when incapacitated or when placed on a Rocket Chair, but at a higher cost. Control will be interrupted if the Mechanic is rescued.

Stats[]

  • Basic depletion: 0.56%/second
  • Durability depletion when being knocked down or put on Rocket Chairs: 0.83%/second
  • Durability depletion when knocking down a doll: 50%

Gameplay[]

The Mechanic starts with her Controller at the beginning of the game, allowing her to deploy her Doll to perform interactions such as vaulting over windows, dropping pallets, decoding a Cipher Machine, and opening the Exit Gate. This adds an additional unofficial Survivor to the team In general as Mechanic is able to use her robotic Doll to decode 2 Cipher Machines at the same time increasing the overall Cipher Machine efficiency.

Mechanic's Doll is fragile, and can be destroyed with 50% Fear rather than a regular Surivor's 100%. Once destroyed, the Doll will be eliminated and the Controller will lose 50% of its durability. Destroying the doll grants the Hunter one hit worth of presence. It will also expose the location of the Survivor with the Controller to the Hunter by a sound cue, but only if the Controller is held by a Survivor when the Doll is destroyed.

Unlike other Survivors, when controlled by the Mechanic, the Doll lasts 33% longer. The Mechanic can also control the Doll when incapacitated or when placed on a Rocket Chair or in a Cocoon. This allows Mechanic to decode even while chaired, the drawback being increased durability depletion of the Controller. Control will be interrupted if the Mechanic is rescued.

Other Details[]

  • The Mechanic cannot control her doll while being carried by the Hunter.
  • Loud sounds will play if Mechanic is using her Controller.
  • The doll will always be deployed behind Mechanic.
  • The Doll will never attract crows.
  • The Doll will trigger Tinnitus.
  • The Doll will not pick up Naiad's Humidity.
  • The Doll can be stunned and damaged by Wax Artist's Wax.

Mechanic's Tips:[]

  • Be aware of your surroundings when controlling the Doll.
    • There will be a prompt that the Hunter is nearby if your Controller button turns red.
  • Using the Controller creates noise that will give the Hunter a hint that you are nearby.
  • If you have not deployed the robot doll by the time the Hunter is chasing you, you can use the Doll to body-block by spawning it as the Hunter swings. As the Doll spawns behind you, it can be used as a shield.
  • It is recommended to deploy the Doll early, as you cannot deploy the robot doll while on a Rocket Chair.
  • Once your Doll has finished their Cipher Machine, if it is near an Exit Gate, you can move the Doll to the Exit Gate so that when the final Cipher is popped, you can make the Doll begin opening the exit gate immediately.
    • This usually allows other Survivors to safely exit as soon as they're in the area, rather than having to manually open the gate and be vulnerable to a Hunter.

Other Survivor's Tips:[]

  • Do not kite near the Doll as this will not only reduce the overall decoding efficiency but will also give the Hunter presence and expose the carrying Survivor's location.
