Impostor Guide:
---------------
Written by mCs
An in-depth Impostor tutorial by an actual 5Head.
-=After the Game Commences=-
Try not to switch up your habbits; if for example you are playing Skiel and 90%
of the time walk LEFT towards Top Engine, don't change where you go just because
you are Impostor, that alone might certain kind of people suspicious.
Start by faking multiple-step tasks such as Wires, but never do more than the
actual Task requires.
Mind how long you do the task for, because good players will look out for that so
know how long it takes to do tasks.
-=Committing to the First Kill=-
Crewmate knowledge is really key to playing impostor because if you act like a
crewmate you will be less likely to be suspected.
One of the easiest way to get the first kill, is wait for somebody to be completely
isolated, just you and them. If that's the case, then commit to the kill and try to
diverse the Crewmates so that they don't discover the body, the best way is to simply
sabotage on the other side of the map.
e.g. If you kill somebody in Navigation, sabotage Reactor.) This will help you get
your kill cooldown without having to worry about people finding the body; and this
can obviously lead to you going on a killing spree without anybody reporting bodies
or calling emergency.
-=After the First-Blood=-
After the first/second kill, it's up to you (and your Impostor friend) to play your
cards right. Try to keep the Crewmates off of reporting the bodies as much as possible.
A good tip to do that is to try and kill people around corners and places where people
don't intentionally go to.
Also, don't forget to kill the lights. Decreasing the vision of the Crewmates is
great for hiding bodies and giving your kill-cooldown a chance to recharge.
If somebody finds the body, try your best to clear yourself and maybe even accuse
somebody out of the blue using a slip up that someone can make when explaining
themselves.
Also, if you commit to a kill and see somebody running your way, you might aswell
report the body and try blaming the whole thing on them using a variety of persuading
methods.
How to Hunt Down and Root Out the Impostors:
--------------------------------------------
Written by Rat King
-=Taking the Fight to the Enemy=-
If you are crew, try to actively hunt down the impostor(s). Doing tasks is beneath
you - leave that to the civilians.
-=Verify and Make a Friend=-
At game start, your objective should be to prove that 1 other person is a crewmate.
Follow someone to a nearby location and ensure they aren't fake tasking by observing
the meter. Once you determine that they are crew go back to the start and use your
emergency meeting. The group will likely be surprised at how early it is and be
annoyed at you that their current task was interrupted.
-=Use Your First Meeting to Train/Lead the Group=-
Most impostors know that they need to get their first kills very quickly if they are
to succeed. By holding an emergency meeting early, you achieve several things:
* You can inform the group that the person you verified is in fact safe. This person
will begin trusting you, even if the rest of the group turns against you out of
annoyance.
* If the meeting is held early enough, you might disrupt an impostor from getting
their first kill and delay their kill countdown timer.
* If the impostors did manage to kill one or two crewmates, the survivors will
know that the people in their vicinity can likely be trusted. This is important
later on.
* If an impostor was spotted using a vent they will be outed almost immediately.
-=Focus On Facts=-
In this first meeting, you may be accused of being an impostor. State clearly that
you can prove your innocence by doing a task. Doesn't have to be one of the visible
ones (med scan, shields, weapons or trash), a simple card in admin will work as the
meter will go up when you are done. Any single-step task will do (so not rewiring,
download etc). Immediately switch the conversation to who has intel to share with
each other (who has scans/trash etc). That will remind the crew that their job is
not to complete tasks, it is to root out who cannot be trusted.
-=Start The Hunt=-
Doing all this will help focus the group on observing each other's movements and
actions. Most impostors just play a solo, run around looking for lonesome victims
kind of game. They duck and weave and change direction on the fly. With this start,
they might get a few more kills but by the end, the remaining survivors will likely
figure out that 3-4 of them are actually safe and will start operating as a group.
Most impostor(s) will not be able to think or adapt fast enough. Some impostors
will try to tag along....
-=Late Game - Avoiding Impostors Out to Get You=
Once the impostors see that you are using logic in chat to coordinate who is
verified as safe (focus on that, not wild accusations) you will become a target.
Try to travel with other safe people but then switch up and pull away on your own.
Impostors in your 'safe' group will be intent on cornering you by yourself.
Use that! Try to keep distance between you and them so they can't kill you (they
will start getting desperate and try for kills out in the open). If they chase
you, they are losing time and not killing crewmates. If they give up, move back
so they are back in your line of sight. Do this a few times and you will quickly
determine if they are an impostor or not. Also, be on the lookout for players
moving in the opposite direction away from a crisis, or who frequently pause,
stop moving and double back.
-=It's All About The Numbers=-
* As numbers dwindle, many players lose sight of the fact that the impostors can
quickly rack up a few kills and win the game.
* If 3 players are alive, the impostor is just 1 kill away from winning the game.
* If 5 players alive (and there are 2 impostors), they are just 1 kill away from
winning the game.
Consequently the choices made by the crew when there are 4 or 6 players left
pretty much determines the outcome of the match. Assuming you have verified that
1 or 2 others are safe, focus on the remaining players and have your group discuss
who is most suspect. You need to take this 50-66% chance of voting out an impostor
at this stage. Sharing last minute intel (and seeing who is not speaking too) will
massively boost the group's ability to make the right call.
How to Win as The Impostor:
---------------------------
Written by Go Do Your Homework
-=The Basics=-
OK so first thing off is to find a good lobby and be the impostor. Having a
teammate helps a lot, and having tasks update during meetings is also super helpful.
I like playing with 15 people and 3 impostors, but you do you.
Also don’t leave the game just because you didn’t get the impostor.
Anyway this guide will be going over the main things you should focus on when your
the impostor to win.
* Build an Alibi and get teammates.
* Fake Tasks.
* Actually kill people.
* Hiding the body.
* How to not get voted out.
-=Avoiding Suspicion, by Getting Teammates and Building an Alibi=-
Yup that is right, you actually need an Alibi of some sort to not get voted out. The
best way to gain one is to get people to trust you. If you have multiple impostors
than it will be easier because you will already have teammates. You want people to
vouch for you, that’s it but how do you do it? You get people to trust you.
The best way to do that is to vouch for people that you were with.
Example: One time me and this dude were fixing electric, after I had purposely sabotaged
it because I had killed someone in storage. As soon as the body was reported I said that
me and him were safe because we were both in electric. He than vouched for me even
though I was the impostor. Getting on peoples good side and helping them will most
likely result in them vouching for you. If Visuals are turned on lie and say that you
saw one of your impostor teammates doing scan, shields, weapons etc.
This will most likely clear them, and you will be surprised at how well it works.
Sometimes after a meeting I will purposely not kill, and focus on building trust with
other crew-mates. During a meeting make sure to vouch for your impostor teammates, and
other crew-mates. Also try to remember the tasks you did and where you went so you
actually have an alibi.
-=How to Fake Tasks=-
Having the task bar update at meetings is super helpful for you (if you are the impostor)
but even if the task bar updates always it is pretty easy to fake tasks. First try faking
admin card swipe. This is the task that most people do first so if there is a big crowd
than nobody can actually see if you did the task or not.
Trying doing tasks that have multiple steps in them, so you don’t get suspicion for not
having the task bar raise up. Try faking wires, and download tasks, because of how easy
they are to fake. Faking tasks in electric is best because it is very easy to find
people to kill their. Also remember to check up on the cams if you can’t fake any tasks.
Do not fake Visual tasks because these will back fire on you badly… duh
-=How to Kill People=-
That’s right, you actually need kill people to win. Try finding people that are alone,
and in places that are closed off. (Pro Tip) Lets say you and 2 other people are in a
room and one leaves. D O N O T immediately kill the other person in the room because
the person that just left might poke their head back in.
Also try locking doors when killing people. It makes easier for you so your victim
doesn’t run away, and also other people can’t come in. My favorite places to kill are,
electric, med-bay, and cams, because of how easy it is to lock the doors there, and they
are all connected via vents. Also try getting kills in cafe. Cafe is so big that most
people don’t check the top of Cafe, which is where you can get easy kills. Also try not
to self-report, and double kills are very hard to pull off in pubs.
-=How to Hide the Body=-
Making sure that the victim you just murdered’s body isn’t found, is very important.
Try locking doors to keep the body hidden. Try sabotaging to lure people away from the
body, and if you got the shape-shifter ability, try disguising as someone else and
stand on top of the body. You will be surprised at how well this works.
(It mostly works because of how brain dead people are in pubs)..
-=What to Do If You Get Caught=-
First off, don’t rage quit or give up their is still hope. Try to get your impostor
buddies to help vouch for you. Use the shape-shifter ability as an excuse (yes it works).
Your goal is to get the person who is accusing you to get voted about before you.
I like to say, “If not (the person that is accusing you) than vote me out next round.
Lets say that happens, your accuser somehow gets voted out, you may think your doomed,
(which you are) but try to get as many kills as you can to help your impostor teammates.
Immediately sabotage something, (so they can’t call and emergency meeting).
And get as many kills as you can. (This only works if you have a teammate).
Mouse + Keyboard Bindings:
--------------------------
Written by water
Keybindings to make actions a little quicker in Among Us.
Unfortunately, you cannot change keybinds. The best you can do is to set up a script
with AutoHotkey.
AZERTY users: If you enable an English keyboard in your Windows settings, you can switch
to that and it will theoretically let you use ZQSD.
-=Bindings=-
* WASD and ARROW KEYS - Movement
* TAB - Map
* E and SPACE - Use, Sabotage, Vent
* R - Report
* Q - Kill
* ESC - Exit terminals and most menus.
-=Extra=-
E and SPACE both work if you want to access terminals, like Vitals on Polus, Security
Cameras, Admin Tables, or Sensor Logs on Mira HQ. ESC can be used to exit these menus.
These bindings can also be used to open the Emergency Button but CANNOT be used to
press the button.
To know what action you'll be doing, you can just look at the very bottom right. For
impostors this will usually be Sabotage, so whenever they press E or SPACE away from
a terminal it will open their sabotage menu. Also, like mentioned, impostors can press
E or SPACE to enter or exit vents quickly.
