Gameplay tips
Time your shocks well: they have a detonation delay, so throw them slightly early or the survivor will still get the pallet or vault off.
Use Static Blast to find survivors, especially right after hooking someone to stop fast rescues.
Manage Madness: a survivor pushed to Tier 3 Madness can't perform actions — ideal for denying a pick-up and closing out the game.
