Roll Thresholds[]

Each threshold is internally named as a gear shift.

  • Gear Shift Explosion
    • The explosion requires at least 0.1s of charge
    • Each explosion deals 30% more damage than the previous gear shift explosion.
    • The explosion has 1750 force and 1500 vertical bonus knockback force
    • It has a proc coefficient of 1, slows on hit, can crit, and will never hit self.
    • It has an explosion radius of 9m
    • As the damage increases and explosion happens on gear shift, it will never deal its base damage coefficient of 0.5.
  • Charge Damage Coefficient = 5 + 5 * 0.2 * Gear
  • Speed Multiplier = 1 + 1 * 0.3 * Gear
  • Knockback Force = 1500 + 1500 * 0.3 * Gear
  • Base Duration = 2.5 + 0.3 * Gear
Gear Hold Time Multiplier Explosion Damage Coefficient

Tips[]

  • Sear appears to harm enemies directly in-front of CHEF's model, it does not follow the player's camera making it difficult to use on enemies whom are flying or while moving in a different direction than the enemy.
  • CHEF's special skill GlazeGlaze (Special)Fire globs of oil in quick succession, dealing 7x200 damage, Slowing, and Weakening enemies.

      Survivor: CHEF
      recharge rate is scaled by attack speed. However, unlike Bandit's primary, it also can be affected by cooldown reduction.
  • CHEF's cleaver for DiceDice (Primary)Throw a piercing cleaver at enemies for 200% damage. Holding the attack doubles recall damage
    Survivor: CHEF
    does not cause any damage to enemies while the cleaver model spins upon hitting the environment or reaching its max range.

    Halve your cooldowns.. BUT halve your attack speed.

    Decrease skill cooldowns by 50% (+50% per stack). Decrease attack speed by 50% (+50% per stack).
    seems like a very strong option for CHEF because its cooldown reduction and attack speed reduction cancel out for DiceDice (Primary)Throw a piercing cleaver at enemies for 200% damage. Holding the attack doubles recall damage
    Survivor: CHEF
    . But the negative impact of attack speed reduction also causes the end of SearSear (Secondary)Ignite. Scorch nearby enemies for 600% damage.
    Survivor: CHEF
    to extend leaving the player unable to use any skills, RollRoll (Utility)Stunning. Charge the rolling pin to speed forward, dealing 300%-600% damage.
    Survivor: CHEF

    Survivor: CHEF
    fires any projectiles.
    • PurityPurity
      Reduce your skill cooldowns by 2 seconds. You are unlucky.

      All skill cooldowns are reduced by 2 (+1 per stack) seconds. All random effects are rolled +1 (+1 per stack) times for an unfavorable outcome.
      is the next best option. It is risky to run, as CHEF's pitiful proc coefficients on his primary and secondary already make it difficult to use proc items, and PurityPurity
      Reduce your skill cooldowns by 2 seconds. You are unlucky.

      All skill cooldowns are reduced by 2 (+1 per stack) seconds. All random effects are rolled +1 (+1 per stack) times for an unfavorable outcome.
      only makes it worse. However, the cooldown reduction may prove useful for players leaning into more aggressive and "in-your-face" builds, similar to MercenaryMercenaryThe Mercenary is a high skill melee survivor that uses his many dodges to weave in and out of combat.
      Class: Melee
      HP: 110 (+33 per level)

Lore[]

Garret pokes at his food in the mess hall of the quiet ship, anxiously awaiting their orbital entry.

The CHEF bot behind the counter hums opera poorly. It adds a cooked patty to a tall and precarious pile next to the grill, then slams a raw patty into the grill with a loud SLAP!

"Even junk gets bored, huh?” Garret said, eyeing the unstable pile of meat.
The CHEF bot whirs and snaps to attention, saluting Garret. Its chassis bursts open with a belch of flame.

CHEF bot quickly slams the door shut again, the smell of burnt meat (and hair) fills the mess hall.

"Can’t believe Kelvin keeps this thing around." Garret says testily, eyebrows singed.

  • Bug Fixes
    • Players who have completed the “CHEF’s Wok” recipe but never received the Order Up! achievement (and were therefore unable to unlock CHEF) will now be able to complete the achievement.
      Developer note: If you are a player that completed the CHEF’s Wok’s recipe but never received Chef’s “Order Up” achievement, then just booting the game after this update and reaching the main menu should grant you the achievement. If you are an Xbox user and don’t get the achievement upon reaching the main menu when unlocking CHEF moving forward, this might be related to missing save data. The solution for this is just to start a run with any survivor and that should grant the “Order Up” achievement". We are going to continue looking out for any save related issues so keep the reports coming.
    • When playing as CHEF in multiplayer, other players will no longer see or hear you charge Boosted Roll after the ability should have ended.
