Build around a clear job
Treat the listed powers and perks as components with conditions, rather than a guarantee that every effect is active together.
GetCheatBeacon's practical checklist for The Animatronic:
- What is the setup trying to improve: information, chase, recovery or objective pressure?
- Can the listed activation condition occur in the situation you are planning for?
- Which weakness remains after choosing the first effect?
- Check current perk text before spending unlock resources; test the complete loadout rather than judging one isolated effect.
