How to counter 096

[BlitzGunner225]

This will be a master guide on how to counter 096. And no it ain’t just “look down”. It’s going to go through pretty much everything. Also feel free to copy and paste this around on any “096 is op” threads. I will be editing this and listing to advice though so if you have any tell me.

096 Alone
Alone, 096 becomes an SCP that’s hard to kill but pretty easy to avoid. If you have an 096 around but you’re not sure where he is then you can stay attentive and try to listen for him or you could play it safe against him and keep your head roughly down (looking down enough that you won’t enrage him from far away but also high enough that you can roughly see your surroundings around you). If you want to kill 096 then there’s a few ways to do it.
If you can, make a plan to kill 096. It may seem dumb but it really does help. Grenades and micro are the best for this as if you get yourself in the right position you can easily kill 096 with them without him even fully entering rage. You can sometimes trick him by pretending not to pay attention in a keycard room and then locking it with you or a grenade inside. You can also use the hat to lock him in a room or have a teammate on another floor close an elevator when 096 gets inside trying to make you enrage him. There are plenty of ways to do it, you just have to come up with one.
If 096 is spawn camping a reinforcements spawn then spread out when you spawn but stay close enough that you can still shoot at him. This will help stall his rage but also allow for the few survivors left to easily kill 096 after his rage runs out. You could also keep your head down and hide if you didn’t see him but make sure you’re 100 percent sure though as otherwise you’ll just be screwing everyone including yourself over. Do not run away as not only are you wasting a good opportunity to kill 096, you’re also likely going to have to to deal with him later anyway but instead of having a squad with you, you’ll just have one or two teammates.
If you accidentally find 096 and enrage him there are many things you could do. If you’re alone you could try and go through an elevator, scare him with a micro maybe, throw down a grenade and then react to what he does, or stand by a locked door with something important inside and hope that helps others out or screws over whoever is inside. If you’re with a team you could space yourselves and shoot him to waste his rage and leave him very vulnerable after his rage is over, have one person sacrifice himself my distracting and dodging 096 while the others run or prepare a micro, or just have everyone run away fast so they can waste the rage and maybe at least one person can survive. It’s not easy to get out of this situation but with a bit of luck and skill you can. Just make sure I’d you’re in a team that everyone knows what the plan is in case this scenario does happen.

096 with a Teammate
This will be a bit unspecific as there are so many SCP combos so I’m just gonna give you some rough tips that will somewhat build off what I said before. You should try and separate the SCPs. 096 is slow and if the other SCP is aggressive then they will likely follow you. This means you could lure the other SCP far away and then deal with him alone. If the SCPs stick together then try and lock one in a room or use a ball, grenade, or micro to kill them together as you could possibly kill both quickly. If 096 is with a computer you can kill computer or waste his power and then deal with 096 alone. If 096 is enraged and dog is nearby you can crouch walk around with your head roughly down and you should be able to avoid both. If you get face to face with the SCPs and you’re in a team then make sure everyone targets either 096 or the other SCP/SCPs as that will at least increase the chance of killing one of the SCPs.

Hiding from 096
If you are in a room with an enraged 096 but you haven’t looked at his face don’t just look down in a corner. Any 096 with a working brain will of course look in the corners for people as that’s where most usually go. You have to outsmart him or just be unpredictable. Maybe go in different places, maybe go where he has already looked, maybe just go in the middle of the room which is the last place a newbie would check. The point is you will have to use your brain to survive.

Pretty sure you should put this on guide rather than discussion?

About the hiding from 096 part,I advise you to position yourself in the middle of walls and don't completely stand still.Move around a little because even if 096 tries to guess your position there,desync should help you because of how 096's attack works (096 is a server sided class,but all the other ones are client sided)

I'd also recommend you not to stand in the middle of corridors and specially not near doors.I recently had an incredibly unfortunate death as a Dboy because I was chasing 096 around (to bully him when he got out of rage),but he turned around last second to break a door and killed me.He got out of rage like the second after killing me.

Speaking of chasing 096 around,do exactly that when he gets enraged and you didn't look at him.Even if 096 is significantly faster than you,you should be in a better position to shoot at him when he calms down as opposed of you just waiting in a single room and him getting out of rage in the other side of the zone.

My last tip is,if you have a team mate with you and both start shooting at 096,try to make a sort of "sandwich" formation instead of shooting right beside your team mate.That way,you'll cover more of 096's escape options and limit his dodging.
