7 TIPS I Wish I Knew From The Beginning - Identity V Beginner's Guide

To explain all the weird markings over the Survivor icons:

A veiny, red, smoky whatever effect over the picture: The effects of Wanted Order, a thing from a Hunter's Persona Web. It reveals the location of said Survivor to the Hunter.

A white bubble: Gardener's recall, it's a shield that block attacks.

A blue shield: Tide Turner, a Survivor is invulnerable to attacks for a handful of seconds after being saved.

A red shield: Said Survivor under Tide Turner has been hit, and will be downed when the effect ends.

Red dot over the Survivor names: That Survivor has already been chaired at least once.

Green bubble: Seer's owl, it blocks attacks.

Ripple effect over the profile: The Survivor just used Flywheel Effect to dodge an attack/gain distance.


Hunter specific:

A weird round symbol in white: Dream Witch has leeched on that Survivor, one of her followers has been attached to them.

The same round symbol but it's purple: The Survivor possesses the Witch mark, which allows them to remove followers from themselves and others.

A weird symbol in blue or red: That is Hermit's charge. (I don't play him so I don't know the name for it) The red is for negative and blue for positive. If Hermit were to hit a Survivor with a negative charge, and all 3 others possess the same charge, the damage would be shared to the others.

When the countdown over the symbol reaches zero, the Survivor is able to switch polarities for a limited amount of time. The only time when this charge disappears is when they take damage (I think)

I think that's about it......

Guys never run straight 😅

Hunters WILL CATCH UP.
Hunters WILL HIT YOU.

AND OML TRY NOT TO USE REPEL STUNS IN AN OPEN SPACE

I like to watch these videos because though ive been playing since 2019 i still suck to oblivion!!1!!!1

I got a question for everyone, when there’s skins I sometimes want, it says "scattered around the manor" what does it means? How do I get that costume?

If anyone is looking to main a survivor, look into transition and tight kiting. Its interesting to learn about and even how to apply both strategies (like which hunters are weak to which type). It's useful especially if you're into IdV like I have been for the past half a decade. I'm definately not a ranked player, but I love the game so I just try to have fun as I go.

Im playing this game for a month, i still suck but its very fun. Just wanted to say i love your high quality vids

a veteran here ! (started playing 2018.) A lil tip for dream witch and joseph . for joseph in the beginning you NEED to hide before camera activated . why? to avoid being hit first. and for dream witch . you will see a icon next to the map thingy . if its like a red icon of dream witch is means her main body is near! you need to run and not decode when the main body is near.there will be a purple thingy in the ground.get it and remove the followers she leech on you

It does tell you in the tutorial that the cipher machines start vibrating

A tip I wish I knew: If the hunter has detention and the exit gate is open, heal up if you were hit and kite the hunter (nearby the gate) until the red effect in their eyes dissipate. Then run to the gate immediately after it dissipates. This is because if you run to the gate within the detention time, the hunter can down you instantly and kill you. If you wait until it disappears, then you can run immediately with only the risk of getting hit a single time and then the speed boost helps you escape quicker. Just make sure you aren’t far from the gate. This is because detention makes the hunter’s standard attacks deal double and if you try to escape even without being hit, it will knock you down in one hit. So yeah and this happened to me this morning. Guess what hunter this was. Bonbon...

Started playing this game lol

I just got breaking wheel's Gelato skin and i tried him (them?) And it was so hard to control his wheelie ability :(

This game gives me panic attacks only started playing for joseph<3

I have no idea how u play idv i jst started it ystrday yet i fell in love w joseph

I hate those medics that decode even tho they decide slow

which emulator is that?

YESSSSS IM JOSEPH MAIN JOSEPH THE BESTTT

I'm not new but i cant seem to get the hang of this game, thank you 😂

i am so glad i knew all of these before watching the video

I wonder if my early game experience would have been better if I knew some of these tips haha

how do you get talent points for the persona webs, i keep restarting mine to unlock new talents

I'm just interested in them making the game a little way if us playing as our self in game like a custom character as how we wanted to be so Everytime we pick a rescue sipher or kite or something else those will unlock you the outfit for it you get what I'm trying to say just a custom character thingy area for fun like a rp mode were we can message people or text your friends or stuff

im new to this game and im watching these type of videos to know what to do and im still confused

I feel like such an idiot because I knew when I played hunter for a bit that survivors left blood stains when running but for some reason decided to forget all about that when I ended up maining surv

just a tip from an oldschool joseph main: if you memorize spawn points and insta camera you can usually hit a survivor twice (the copy) and then you wont have a hit cooldown while you beat up their teammates!

So I can drop some tips to counter my main, which is sculptor.

1. She works best in an area filled with obstacles, so avoid staying in a spot like that.

2. If you're an enchantress or coordinator, attack her when she uses her chisel to cast the statues. It will interrupt her killing spree and will be forced to chase you (Her chase abilities are mediocre).

3. This rule applies to all hunter in generals. Use your pallets wisely. I saw many people accidentally Corner themselves trying to get away from me by throwing down a pallet.

Where do I go to learn “from the VERY beginning”? Give me a break cause I’m an old lady who is 65 and wants to try the game. Looks way to hard though because I don’t understand ANYTHING.

hm

"I've been playing for 6th months" me whose been playing for 2 almost 3 years and don't even know what the red glow on someone's name is. I have some guesses but I guess we'll see!

how to play pc version ?

Luckily, when i started playing, my sister had already played for awhile, so she just told me all of this 😅

What does it mean when it says to leave a like in idv

Thats really helped me thanks

Me watching this a year after playing: surprise pikachu

i just started playing a week ago and i honestly don't know what im doing LMAO i would freak out when the hunter chases me and I'd loose sight to where i am supposed to go or what im supposed to do and just run off around the map not knowing what to do😭

I'm not beginner. I'm just n00b.🤪

The hunters in this game are seriously LOVES camping chaired survivor. It really kills the fun but oh well, it is individual thingy so can't blame the game.

i missed how i just asked the hunters to step on me pre match and i'd follow them so much theyd just surrender and be friendly

Really helpful thanks for the info.BTW my IGN is darkphoenix

I just got a nice new phone and I've been wanting to play this game for quite awhile.
The only thing I'm afraid of is that games like this , alot of the time are either very short tempered with newbies or are totally toxic to beginners. I really hate those types of game communities (for example I had an awful experience with LOL) and it turned me off big games like those for awhile.
But I really wanna play this one so I'm gonna , but I'd like some opinions. Anyone wanna say anything about how the players treat newbies?

The red hue around ur name should only appear if ur dead on chair

Can someone please tell me how to make bots in custom scripts like just stand there

Finally someone has the same ping as me

Its very fun to play dw in low ranks
They just see spawning girls all above the map

I just played this game for a month and it was fun and I made some of my friends play it too

The hunter tutorial actually tells you about the trails.
Also, why is Yidhra easy for me to play and understand???

tips from a Galatea and Emily main:

Galatea (Sculptor, the one with wheelchair) can throw her knife (i dunno if is a knife tho), so STOP looking at Galatea when they hit you and are "stunned" because it i'll be more easy to catch you
