Helpful Arcs and Abilities Summary
| Arc | Ability |
Time Bandit | - Instantly unlock Safes you have touched |
Zankou's Abilities
Move Undetected in Shadow Hound State
In Shadow Hound state, Zankou is invisible to enemies and can still pick up items. The cooldown resets the moment the duration ends, so it can be used back-to-back with no gaps.
| Note! | Shadow Hound state is canceled if you force unlock a Safe or Door. |
Movement Speed Is 1.5x Faster in Shadow Hound State
Shadow Hound state also keeps your movement speed at a constant 1.5x. This lets you cover more ground without having to worry about enemy patrol routes.
Shinku's Abilities
Hold Dash to Transform and Move at High Speed
Hold Dash to put Shinku into her transformation and cover ground quickly. The transformation cancels when you pick up an item or open a Door, so plan your route before activating it.
Hotori's Abilities
Hotori's Time Stop Pauses Time Limit
Hotori's Ultimate can stop time, which also temporarily pauses the heist time limit. This is especially useful against tougher enemies, letting you deal damage while conserving valuable time.
| Note! | In multiplayer, time will not stop, and items cannot be collected during the effect, so this ability is best used in solo play. |
Can Also Stop Time Outside Combat
As long as you are not in combat, you can stop time by holding down the Basic Attack button. This can help reduce travel time while moving through the heist.
Sneak Past Enemies Undetected
While time is stopped, enemies cannot detect you. This even lets you bypass enemies in the elevator before LG2 that would normally require combat.
Lacrimosa's Abilities
Lacrimosa's Bat Form Bypasses Lasers
While using Lacrimosa's transformation skill, she takes no damage from Lasers. This allows her to move through these hazards without needing to dodge them.
Cannot Pass Lasers If Detected

You cannot pass through Laser walls that appear after being spotted by an enemy. You'll still need to defeat the enemy and disable the barrier as normal.
Access Ceiling Passages with Bat Form
After activating her transformation skill, ascend upward and cancel it near the ceiling of the LG2 floor to reach the upper passage. This lets you collect items on the ceiling route without using a Key Card.
Can Also Reach with Baicang's Super Jump
You can also reach the ceiling route by floating slightly with Lacrimosa, then switching to Baicang and using Super Jump.
Increase Fons and Paw-Paw Coin Rewards

Unlocking Lacrimosa's Life Skill "Exclusive Bat-efit" increases the amount of Fons and Paw-Paw Coins earned in Pink Paws Heist by 20%. The bonus only applies while Lacrimosa is in your team, so make sure to include her in your lineup after unlocking it.
Chiz's Abilities
Highlight Items with Chiz's Life Skill

Unlocking Chiz's Life Skill "Nocturnal Animal" causes Pink Paws Heist items to be highlighted in gold. Chiz does not need to be in your team; the effect remains active as long as the Life Skill is unlocked.
Skia's Abilities
Move Undetected While Using a Skill
While Skia is hiding in the shadows with his skill, enemies won't spot him. This includes enemies guarding elevators, making him a solid pick for navigating crowded floors. Note that camera-equipped enemies can still detect him even while the skill is active.
Time Bandit's Abilities
Instantly Unlock a Safe Once Touched
With Time Bandit equipped, approach a Safe close enough to trigger a force unlock prompt, then use the special action to open it instantly without waiting. The ability has a 50-second cooldown, but the time saved per use adds up over a full run.
Can Unlock from a Distance After Touching It

Once you've touched a Safe and the force unlock prompt appeared, you can trigger the special action from a distance to unlock it remotely. If the prompt hasn't appeared yet, the ability won't fire even if you're standing next to the Safe, so get close enough for the prompt first.
