Abilities

Mask On (V.A.N.N.I. Mask)

Press Q to equip the V.A.N.N.I. mask, entering first-person view. While active, nearby phaseable obstacles are highlighted. Unlocks the Phase ability (E) and locks Static Mirage. April 22 hotfix: mask can now be taken off (Mask Off: press Q again, reduces cooldown based on remaining duration).

Enables Phase, disables Static Mirage; mask removable (Apr 22)

Phase

While V.A.N.N.I. Mask is active, press E to dash through any highlighted obstacle within range. Costs half the V.A.N.N.I. Mask meter per use. Grants Slowness for 5 seconds after phasing. Developer clarification: works on boxes, debris, crates — NOT walls, killers, or exit gates (Wyvern 2026-04-21 11:26). Apr 22 hotfix: slowness duration decreased by 35% (was ~7.7s → now 5s). Source: Fandom wiki (Silver 2026-04-23).

Phase through soft obstacles; costs half mask meter; applies 5s Slowness

Static Mirage

Press E (when mask is off) to deploy a tesla shield at your location. The shield applies Slowness and Dazed debuffs to any killer that enters its range. Lasts 20 seconds; can be destroyed by a single M1 hit from the killer. Source: Fandom wiki bite-by-night.fandom.com/wiki/Technician (Silver 2026-04-23).

Deploys 20s tesla field; Slowness + Dazed on killer; destroyable in 1 hit

Fixer Upper (Passive)

Two wires are automatically connected from the start when the Technician begins a generator puzzle, reducing completion time. Source: bitebynight.wiki (Silver); Fandom wiki (Silver 2026-04-23).

Faster objective completion (passive)
