Hersecond-highest stat is Strength, allowing her to effectively grapple against enemies and perform strong sneak attacks. Strength also makes iteasier to complete physical tasks like opening crawl spaces or disabling generators.

Ana’slowest stats are Proficiency and Stealth. This meansit will take Ana longer to complete more technical taskslike lock picking, pressure valve repair, and gathering bone scrap.

Due to Ana’s Toughness and Strength,it’s best to adopt an aggressive play style when confronted by members of the Family. Leave technical tasks to be completed by Connie or Julie and alsoaim to take hits for weaker Victims like Sonny.

How To Play As Ana

At the start of a game,find a toolbox or bone pile as soon as possible. Since Ana can take more damage, you’re able to afford to make noise by completing these tasks quickly.You are more likely to survive than the rest of your team if Leatherface finds you first, especially with Pain Is Nothing.

Be one of the first people to exit the basement, ready to handle any Family members nearby. While on the surface,focus on finding a tool and fuses for the Fuse Box. The Fuse box is a great escape option for Ana because opening it can’t set off a loud noise.

You can quickly reach the fuse exit in the basement byjumping into a well. You won’t have to worry about Fall Damage thanks to Ana’s high Toughness.

If the fuses are too well-guarded,attempt to go for the valve instead. Collecting a valve is quick, but you’ll need to be wary of the noise you’ll make when attaching it to the pump.

Try totake hits for fellow Victimsescaping with you. A high Toughness stat combined with Pain Is Nothing ensures you’ll both survive.
