Pounce Charge: 1 second

Smoke Bomb Duration: 4 seconds
↳ only 1 use




Damage is based on Air Time

Damage every 0.5 seconds

• The higher your FPS; the more speed you'll have & more control you'll have in the air.
  
• Press WASD in the air to control the direction.
  
  
• You make a lot of noise when you are moving in your Pounce Charge (You make NO noise when not moving in Pounce Charge).
  
  
• The Hitbox is kinda large; so as long as you hit them you get the pounce.
  
  
• When you pounce a Hero, there is knockback that can possibly ledge other nearby Heroes.
  
  
• If Heroes are good at tracking high pounce, wiggle mid-air with "A / D" to make the shot harder. If they’re very accurate, use low direct pounces with cover.

Hoist Time: 3.5 seconds
Reload (after Hoist): 5 seconds




Damage every 1 second

- When you start to Hoist; you do 0 damage till the Hero is fully Hoisted.
- The Hitbox for the hook lingers for a bit so you can spin the Hitbox to try to grab someone (Useful for trying to grab someone who is Invisible or if you missed & another Hero is nearby).

• Drag speed is dependent on the Ping of who you hook. The lower their Ping, the faster you'll drag; the higher their Ping, the slower you'll drag.
  
  
• Hold X to 3rd-person to make sure nothing moves you & to check that your hook isn't sticking out through terrain.
  
  
• Dragging/Pushing someone off a ledge:
  ① If the Hero has Green HP; the will go into Ledge Hang.
  ② If the Hero has downed while on the hook; they will die without having a Ledge Hang.
  
  
• Roof Hook: You can stand on a elevated location to Hook a Hero & Hoist the Hero so that they cannot be rescued
  
  
• If the initial hook downs the hero; you will be stuck in place unable to move for a bit.
  
  
• You can Hook a Hero that is airborne; but you cannot Hook a Hero when you are airborne.
  
  
• If you know you are going to die; don't Hoist as you are doing 0 Damage. Just keep the dragging for Damage.
  
  
• Once you hook a Hero, even if you die, the Hero will be stuck in-place & defenseless for a moment.
  
  
• The hook cannot pass through obstacles even if it reaches Heroes.
  
  
• Walking sideways is slow. Its optimal to hold W while shaking your head to make it more difficult to hit you.
  
  
• Pressing WASD while in the air will allow you to move a small amount while falling, this will make it harder to get hit.
  
  
• Packmaster's walking sound is extremely loud, but jumping is silent. So you can either:
  ① Spawn, then immediately jump down from an elevated spot to fall onto a Hero making very little noise (will make 1 step sound).
  ② Jump, then Spawn to fall without making noise. This will also give you the a bit more momentum from being a Ghost.

• The Vermintide bar carries over between rounds so if you are near the end of a round; just hold it for next round.

• If a Patrol spawns, that means there is no Monster spawn for that round.
  
  
• Patrols will spawn at the same spot on the other team, but not guaranteed to be the same type of Pat depending on the map. (ex.Righteous Stand; Round 2, Team 1's Patrol can be a Skaven, but then Team 2's can be Chaos).

Intentionally hooking someone in such a way that they end up inside the geometry of the map / under the map / out of map bounds is an exploit. Don’t do it.

• ... Do I need to say anything here? Fatshark was quite clear.

Hooking a player so they end up in a place that’s unreachable by Heroes but reachable by Pactsworn (such as a roof), we’d rather you didn’t do it, but it’s not a bannable offense at this time.

• This means its that we can do these & is fair game. Plus there are clear areas for Roof Hook spots & can be played around / has counterplay.

• Hopefully this means that this is now fixed & dont have to worry about it anymore but time will tell
