Abilities

Description
Abilities are skills that the player and Granny utilise in the game and can improve in the Upgrade tab by upgrading in the lobby but upgrading will need experience obtained by using that ability, it costs a certain amount to upgrade to the next level once the experience bar is full, the ability will be refined on and the experience bar will reset. If you don’t have enough experience the upgrade button will be locked. This page gives information on both of the team’s abilities. As of Update 2.0.0, the ability cap is 25.

Granny
Granny has four abilities in-game that can be upgraded in the lobby screen as the first and default tab and will be listed:

Speed
“By improving speed you can run faster to escape your enemy.” The speed does not increase like it says in the description nor does Granny escape the survivors but like the Player’s counterpart it actually increases stamina for sprinting, though it is more slower than the Survivor sprint; less stamina is gained than the Survivor when upgrading identical levels.

Bear Trap Cooldown
“You place traps faster and cool down time is decreased.”

Self-explanatory, Granny will be able to deploy bear traps faster, but will not increase the amount of bear grapes you can place or decrease the radius where you can’t place another trap next to another.

Noise
“Improve the sound listening range.”

Granny will be able to hear sounds caused by players from a further distance, making it easier to locate noisy people.

Knocked Out
“When you’re knocked out, your recovery speed will be faster.”

If Granny is incapacitated by a weapon, she will recover faster with every upgrade. The default recovery is around 15 seconds.

Survivor
Survivors also has four abilities in-game that can be upgraded in the lobby screen located below the Granny tab and will be listed:

Speed
“By improving speed you can run faster to escape your enemy.”

The speed does not increase like it says in the description but like the Granny’s counterpart it actually increases stamina for sprinting, more stamina is gained than Granny when upgrading identical levels.

Remove Trap
“When you fall into a trap you can escape faster by improving this ability.” Reduces time stuck in Granny’s bear traps, you do need to press the buttons in the game to start removing it though regardless.

Revive
“Improve speed to revive people who have been shot by the enemy.”

If a player was knocked down by Granny, you can help them up faster by improving this ability, default recovering time is around 20 seconds. (You aren’t shot down.)

Danger
“Increase the time to endure some danger such as suffocation.”

Danger being suffocation and only it, it gives you more time to tolerate the toxicity of the vents before perishing. May help with temporarily evading Granny.
