Instinct Teacher
The Instinct Teacher is an NPC who can teach the player the Instinct ability. It gives the player enhanced vision, and the ability to see enemies through walls, as well as dodge certain attacks. The player can also train this ability to unlock its full potential(Hotkey E or K). It costs 750,000.
If an Instinct-breaking move or projectile hits the player directly while in Instinct, it knocks the player out of their Instinct state. This is known as Instinct Break, and can be used to counter people with a lot of dodges.
Dodge levels
- 0 EXP - Level 1 - 2 dodges
- 50 EXP - Level 2 - 3 dodges
- 350 EXP - Level 3 - 4 dodges
- 850 EXP - Level 4 - 5 dodges
- 1,400 EXP - Level 5 - 6 dodges
- 2,100 EXP - Level 6 - 7 dodges
- 2,800 EXP - Level 7 - 8 dodges
- The max amount of dodges is 8 (11 if player has Pale Scarf and Human V2 or above equipped), however increasing the EXP further (up to 5,000) can increase the player's vision range.
- 1 dodge = 1 EXP, 0.5 dodge = 1 EXP too.
Notes
- Upgrading their Human race to V2 also gives the player an extra dodge, up to 9 (removed in Update 18)
- The player will regenerate 1 dodge every 50 seconds.
- Normal NPCs also only drain half a dodge, effectively doubling the amount of dodges a player has.
- Players can be seen further away with Instinct than NPCs can be seen, this is due to performance.
- The Instinct Teacher can be talked to after purchasing Instinct, which will then tell the player how much EXP they have.
- The Ultra Instinct title can be obtained by obtaining 5,000 EXP (the maximum exp).
- Since 0.5 dodge gives the same amount of EXP as 1 dodge, farming EXP for Instinct is easier on regular npc's than on Bosses.
- Pale Scarf adds 2 dodges on top of your current amount, making it highly effective at faster farming instinct exp.
- Instinct's vision range works further on players, and vision range on NPC's is much shorter (You can see all players on map, but only half NPC's on 1 island)
Hungry Man
The Hungry Man is an NPC who can upgrade the player's Instinct ability to its V2 variant upon completing his quest, which provides numerous buffs. It can only be obtained in the Third Sea, and costs 5,000,000 to obtain.
Quest
More information on the quest required to obtain Instinct V2 can be found at the Hungry Man Quest page.
Notes
Instinct V2 comes with various buffs, such as:
- Increased vision range.
- Faster dodge recharging (40 seconds instead of 50).
- Clearer field of view.
- Allows the player to see when another player is charging up an attack.
- Allows the player to see Fighting Style, Fruit, Sword, level and Gun of another player.
- Allows the player to move faster while chasing another player in combat.
More information on all of these can be found at the Instinct V2 page.
