The Singularity

Quantum Instantiation

"A dark crystalline structure in an ancient ruin gifted — or perhaps cursed — HUX with sentience. He built a new body, and with it, a terrifying way to bend the rules of physics to his benefit." SPECIAL ABILITY: QUANTUM INSTANTIATION The Singularity starts the Trial with 8 Biopods in his inventory. Placing additional Biodpods will recycle the oldest one. SPECIAL ABILITY: SHOOTING BIOPODS Press the Power button to bring up his gun, indicating available target locations on the HUD. Press the Attack button to shoot a Biopod: • Shoot it at an available target location within 22 metres to place it. • Shoot it at an already placed Biopod to remove it. • Shoot it at a Slipstreamed Survivor to teleport to them. The Auras of Biopods are revealed to The Singularity at all times. SPECIAL INTERACTION: CONTROLLING BIODPODS Press the Secondary Power button to control a Biodpod, taking on its POV and allowing The Singularity to observe the environment and Survivors through it. Press and hold the Secondary Power button instead to activate auto-aim, causing the controlled Biopod to target the nearest Survivor in range: • Press or press and hold the Secondary Power button again while aiming at another Biodpod to control it instead. • Press the Power button to return to the previously controlled Biopod, which is highlighted in yellow for 10 seconds after leaving it. • Press the Interaction button to exit the currently controlled Biodpod and return to The Singularity. • Press the Attack button while controlling a disabled Biopod to destroy it, taking 0.75 seconds. If a Survivor is within Line of Sight of a controlled Biopod, as well as within a distance of 20 metres, their outline is highlighted in white and aiming the reticule at them will begin to tag them with Temporal Slipstream, unless they hide or move out of range. Biopods indicate their current state while controlling them based on the colour of the HUD: • Overclock Green: Biopod is idle or tagging a Survivor with Temporal Slipstream. • Temporal Purple: Biopod is charging a Slipstream Teleport. • White: Biopod is on cool-down. • Red: Biopod is being destroyed by The Singularity or disabled from an EMP. SPECIAL AFFLICTION: TEMPORAL SLIPSTREAM Successfully tagging a Survivor with Temporal Slipstream makes them vulnerable to the Teleportation Power of The Singularity Temporal Slipstream spreads to other Survivors within 6 metres over the duration of 2 seconds. A Survivor receiving Temporal Slipstream from a Biopod or a nearby Slipstreamed Survivor triggers Killer Instinct for 3 seconds. SPECIAL ABILITY: SLIPSTREAM TELEPORTATION The Singularity can perform a Slipstream Teleport to any Slipstreamed Survivor by either aiming the reticule of a controlled Biopod at them or shooting them directly with a Biopod. Teleporting through the path of a dropped Pallet instantly breaks it and momentarily slows The Singularity. Performing a Slipstream Teleport automatically puts The Singularity into Overclock Mode. SPECIAL STATE: OVERCLOCK MODE Overclock Mode lasts for 5.7 seconds and grants the following effects to the The Singularity: • Grants a +3 % Haste Status Effect. • The Singularity cannot be stunned with a Pallet. • Attempting to do so will instantly break the Pallet and only momentarily slow The Singularity. • Any carried Survivors will not be released from his grasp. • Increases the Action speeds for breaking Breakable Walls and dropped Pallets, and vaulting Windows by +75 %. SPECIAL ITEM: ELECTROMAGNETIC PULSE DEVICE A total of 4 Supply Cases are placed throughout the environment, each containing an EMP. The Auras of Supply Cases are revealed to all Survivors within 28 metres, who are not already carrying an EMP: • The Aura is revealed in white while printing. • The Aura is revealed in yellow when reaching the Printing limit. Using an EMP has the following effects within its Area of Effect of 10 metres: • Removes Temporal Slipstream from all nearby Survivors. • Disables all nearby Biopods for 45 seconds. Power Trivia[] Movement Speeds: Main Article • Walking: 4.6 m/s • Overheat Walking: 2.3 m/s • Overheat applies a penalty of -50 % • Biopod Projectile: 50 m/s Biopods: • Disabled duration: 45 seconds • This applies to when an EMP detonates within range of the Biopod currently being controlled by The Singularity. • Audio Delay duration: 0.2 seconds • After possessing a Biopod for this amount of time, The Singularity can hear all nearby sounds through it. • Aura-Linger duration of Last Controlled Pod: 10 seconds • Within this close of a range, a Biopod is considered to be removed when aiming at it. • Minimum Removal Range: 1.3 metres • Maximum Spawn range: 22 metres • Maximum Height offset: 5 metres • Biopods may not be spawned any higher than this, compared to the Killer's location. • Surface offset: 0.75 metres • Biopods spawn with this offset on surfaces. • Charge time: 0.15 seconds • Reload time: 0.5 seconds • Projectile speed: 50 m/s • Destroy time when controlled: 1.5 seconds Biopod Spawn Restrictions: • Biopods may not be spawn within the specified ranges of the following objects: • Interactables (non-collectable): 1.5 metres • Windows and Generators: 2.5 metres • Minimum Angle from the horizontal: 45 ° • Maximum Angle from the horizontal: 155 ° • Minimum Range from the Killer: 0.8 metres • Minimum Valid Attachment points: 2 • Minimum LOS Distance between multiple Biopods: 5 metres Biopod POV: Biopods use the same Lock On mechanic as the Skull Merchant's Drones do, hence the same terminology. • Lock On Regression time: 0.5 seconds • This applies when a Survivor is being targeted by a Biopod, but the process was not completed. • Lock On Depletion delay: 0.25 seconds • This is a buffer before Lock On progress starts to deplete if line of sight is briefly lost. • Reticule Overlay size: 35 % of the screen height • Maximum Lock On range: 20 metres • Lock On Teleport Charge time: 0.8 seconds • Lock On Assimilation Charge time: 0.8 seconds • This refers to tagging a Survivor from a Biopod. • Lock On Assimilation Cool-down time: 1 second • This cool-down shields Survivors from being retagged right after using an EMP. • Lock On Cool-down time after Teleport/Assimilation: 3 seconds • Lock On Wake-up time: 0.5 seconds • This refers to the transition time from the Biopod's Point of View back to The Singularity. • Anti-Camping Lock On Rate modifier: x0.1 • This means that if a Biopod is located too close to a hooked Survivor, it takes 10 times longer to charge a Teleport or Assimilation. • Anti-Camping Lock On Wake-up time: 1.5 seconds • This time is achieved with a multiplier of x3 and not actually a hard-coded value. • Lock On Priority range: 1 metre • Survivors within this range will be locked onto with priority over other Survivors. • Maximum Vertical Camera Angle (Pitch): ±80 ° • This refers to the maximum up and down tilt for the Camera when The Singularity controls a Biopod. • Collision Loss delay: 1.5 seconds • This refers to The Singularity losing collision shortly after controlling a Biopod. • Auto-aim Linger duration: 12 seconds • If a Survivor was previously tagged in that timeframe, the Biopod will automatically aim at it again. Slipstream Teleport: • Teleport duration: 0.3 seconds • Post-Teleportation Wake-up time: 1.7 seconds • Post-Teleportation No-Collision time: 1.5 seconds Slipstream Spreading: • Default Spreading distance: 6 metres • Initial Spreading delay: 2 seconds • Buffer delay: 5 seconds • This likely applies for when a Survivor just removed their Slipstream with an EMP and a still Slipstreamed Survivor comes into Spreading distance. Overclock Mode: • Action Speed Bonus multiplier: x1.75 • Haste strength: +3 % • Overclock duration: 5.7 seconds • Overheat duration: 3 seconds • Overheat occurs when The Singularity teleports through a dropped Pallet, breaking it in the process. • Overheat Movement Speed penalty -50 % Anti-Camping Restrictions: • Restricted range: 10 metres • Linger duration: 5 seconds
