Distractors Overview

Distractors are the NPCs that pull you away from your tasks. There are 10, each embodying a way to procrastinate. They don't attack — they capture your attention and drag you to a distraction room until a teammate frees you.

The five stats

Like classes, distractors are rated 1–5 per stat, mapping to concrete values:

Stat What it does Rating 1 → 5
Speed Chase walk speed 6 → 24
Detection How far it can spot you (studs) 6 → 16
Charisma Pull strength — higher captures you faster 20 → 60
Distract Time How long it holds you (seconds) 20 → 60
Targets How many players it holds at once 1 / 1 / 1 / 2 / 3

Targets is a rating, not a count. A Targets rating of 4 = 2 simultaneous holds; rating 5 = 3; everything 1–3 holds just one.

How a capture works (two stages)

Getting distracted happens in two separate steps — see Distraction and Detection for the full detail:

  1. Capture build-up — while the distractor holds line-of-sight on you, a meter fills. Higher Charisma fills it faster; higher player Awareness slows it. Break line-of-sight and it resets.
  2. Distraction hold — once the meter fills, you're held for the distractor's Distract Time (reduced by your Recovery and Meditation) until a teammate rescues you or it expires.

Tiers and difficulty

Distractors come in four tiers, and which ones appear depends on the level's NPC difficulty:

  • Basic — appear on Easy levels only.
  • Slow — can appear on Easy, Medium, and Hard.
  • Elite — appear on Medium and Hard.
  • Boss — appear on Hard only.

They also spawn across three Waves: Channel Surfer leads (Wave 1); most fill Wave 2; the Elites and Bosses arrive in Wave 3.
