Lore Secrets

Hidden Passives

The game doesn't tell you everything. These hidden class mechanics were discovered by our community testers.

🦌 Deer: "One of Us"

Effect: Shadow Crawlers will not aggro onto a Deer player unless provoked. This allows Deer players to walk safely through infested areas at night.

🦣 Mammoth: "Heavy Steps"

Effect: Sprinting shakes the ground. This actually scares away smaller animals (rabbits), making hunting much harder for Mammoth mains.

🧚 Fairy: "Photosynthesis"

Effect: Stand in direct sunlight to regenerate Hunger. This passive is inactive during rain or night.

🦊 Fox: "Trap Master"

Effect: Can walk over friendly Bear Traps without triggering them. Essential for baited trap corridors.
