Blitz, because of the darkness of his long life, had very poor eyesight, and could safely elude Blitz by staying away from his path. Such as a fork in the road, stairs above or below, some large room corner.

The best way to avoid Blitz is to hide before it rushes through the room. Blitz moves considerably faster than [[Angler]], so you need to react faster. Make sure to not hide too early, or you will be forced out of your hiding spot due to [[Hiding#Cleithrophobia|cleithrophobia]]. You can also avoid Blitz by hiding outside of its line of sight in places like seperate rooms and inside vents.

Blitz uses Raycasting to create its line of sight, so hiding places that cover your character completely (such as office cubicles) or hiding places that are far enough away from Blitz (seperate hallways) also work to protect you.

Z-283-BLITZ, codenamed "Blitz" is a monster in Pressure, acting as a common threat found in the Hadal Blacksite and a variant of The Angler.

Appearance

Blitz resembles a heavily malformed gray viperfish with numerous sharp, thin teeth and three pupils in its right eye socket. Its features are distorted, with its open mouth taking up the majority of its face. Blitz is constantly obscured by a thick dark smoke, obscuring everything aside from its face. Its face will always be facing the player, regardless of where they view it.

Mechanics

Blitz has a chance to spawn if the player’s current or previous room has a valid hiding spot. When Blitz spawns, nearby electronics will flicker briefly and Blitz will begin advancing. When Blitz is close enough to the player it will start screeching loudly, signaling for players to hide. Blitz moves extremely fast compared to Angler and other node monsters.

Notes

  • After a player spends a set amount of time in a room, there is a chance for Blitz or any other node monster to spawn. This is called a timer spawn.
  • Before a Blitz attack, the navi-path of the next door will flicker briefly. Knowing this makes it easier to tell when Blitz is coming in dark rooms or while passing through a room with Eyefestation.
  • Blitz has different audio cues compared to Angler, making it easier to know if Blitz is attacking.

The Ridge

For more information, see: The Ridge

Blitz will spawn more frequently in the ridge, and will not be accompanied by any visual cues. Players are forced to rely on sound alone to know when Blitz is coming. Sound cues happen earlier while Blitz is attacking in the ridge, giving players more time to react.

Strategy

The best way to avoid Blitz is to hide before it rushes through the room. Make sure to not hide too early, or you will be forced out of your hiding spot due to cleithrophobia. Blitz moves extremely fast compared to Angler, so be careful when timing your hiding.

Blitz uses a raycasting hitbox to create its line of sight, so hiding in places that cover your character completely (including office cubicles, separate hallways, and vents) will work in evading Blitz.
