The Archives
Encounter type
Patrol and stampede hazard
First cue
Watch the clocks and the path ahead. Launch-day guides report a stampede when the displayed number reaches 5 or 9.
Primary response
Step out of the traffic line or use cover before the crowd crosses; do not try to race through the center.

Step-by-step response

  1. Scan the corridor before committing to a straight line.
  2. When the event builds, move to a clear side position or a hiding place.
  3. Wait for the crowd to pass, then re-check the room because drone positions can change.

Field notes

  • The danger is route denial more than a single chase.
  • A safe-looking corridor can change after you turn away.
  • In multiplayer, leave space so one player does not push the group back into the path.
