Blind Spot

Blind Spot
Class	Cool Perk
Attribute	Cool
Tier	Rookie (4)
Levels	1
Requires	Feline Footwork

Blind Spot ties V's stealth to V's armour. While crouched, the higher the chance of mitigating damage, the longer enemies take to notice V at all. It is an early pick in the Cool tree. It is the one perk in the game where a defensive stat buys concealment.

Effect

---

Detection is a timer that runs while an enemy has V in view. Lengthening it means V can be seen for longer before the alarm is raised.

The scaling is the unusual part. Everything that raises mitigation chance, whether a perk, an implant or a stance, now also makes V harder to spot, which means a durable stealth build gets quieter as it gets tougher.

How to Unlock Blind Spot

---

It sits behind the Rookie gate of the Cool tree and is bought from Feline Footwork.

Perk Tree

Name	Image	Tier	Effect
Feline Footwork		Rookie (4)	When crouched: +15% Movement Speed. +15% Mitigation Chance. Mitigation grants a chance to reduce incoming damage by current Mitigation Strength (default 50%.)

Character Builds

---

It belongs to a stealth build that also wears armour, which is unusual and very effective, since this perk pays the armour back as concealment.

Buy it at the Rookie gate from Feline Footwork, after Small Target and Unexposed, both of which raise the mitigation chance it reads. Mitigation from cyberware and from the Body tree counts as well, so a durable build is also the quietest one.

Notes

---

Small Target and Unexposed both raise mitigation chance while crouched, so they feed this perk directly.

Serpentine higher in the tree raises it again during a crouched sprint.
