”

투명화로도 불리는 투명해지기는 투명 시계, 망토와 단검, 데드 링어, 그리고 Enthusiast's Timepiece에 의하여 발동하는 스파이의 고유한 능력입니다. 투명화는 스파이가 짧은 기간동안 투명해지게 만들며, 스파이가 착용하는 시계에 따라, 그를 적 사이로 눈에 띄지않게 움직이게 해주거나 공격받았을때 재빨리 탈출하도록 해줍니다. 투명화된 상태에서, 스파이는 투명화되는 기간동안은 공격할 수 없습니다.

기본적인 특징

투명화 도중에는 공격이 불가능할지라도, 플레이어는 여전히 변장 도구를 사용할 수 있습니다. 투명화중에 변장은 변장이 진행중이라는것을 알아낼 수 있는 팀 색상의 엷은 안개 입자 효과가 없을것입니다. 투명화 도중에는, 스파이는 모든 적에게 완벽히 투명하게 보입니다. 스파이의 아군은 그를 엷은 그들의 팀 색상의 반투명 실루엣으로 볼 수 있을것입니다. This will allow players to determine if an area is being surveyed by a friendly Spy and to structure future movements around him.

스파이에게 피해를 주거나 스파이와 부딪치면 팀에 상관없이 모든 플레이어들에게 보이는 팀 색상의 실루엣이 나타날 것입니다. 스파이는 사하라 스파이 세트를 착용하고 있을 경우 0.5초 더 오랫동안 보이는 상태가 유지됩니다. 데드링어의 데미지 감소 효과가 진행중에는, 부상당하거나 부딪쳐도 실루엣이 생기지 않습니다.

투명화된 스파이들은 자동 응답(예를 들어, 피격을 당했을때의 비명), 발걸음과 같은 대부분의 소리를 내지 않을것입니다. 음성 채팅은 사용에 제약을 받지 않으며, 몇몇 응답은 어쨌든간에 할 것입니다. 또한 모자와 같은 기본적인 특별한 효과는 보이지 않을것입니다. 투명화된 스파이가 자라테, 미치광이 우유, 출혈, 그리고 화염과 같은 보이는 효과를 가진 무기에 의하여 공격받을 경우 이 효과는 보통과 같이 적용되며, 투명화 효과를 무효로 만듭니다. 비슷하게, 물에서 나오면 스파이는 투명화를 했을지라도 물방울이 떨어지게 될것이며, 조금 높은 지점에서 추락하면 출혈 입자 효과가 나올것이고, 떨어지는 소리가 들릴것입니다.

투명화 해제중에, 스파이는 특별한 소음을 낼것이며 완벽하게 보이기 전에 변장을 했던지 안했던지 팀 색상의 실루엣으로 서서히 나타날 것입니다. 이것때문에, 투명화를 해제할때에는 적의 시야와 청야 범위에서 벗어나도록 유의해야만 합니다.

각 시계는 플레이어에게 보이도록 무기에 투명화 게이지를 표시합니다. 이 게이지는 허드에서도 확인할 수 있습니다.

스파이는 백스텝을 시도한 후 0.5초동안은 투명화가 불가능하지만, 스파이는 전자 교란기를 사용하거나 그의 주 무기를 발사한 후에는 즉시 투명화를 할 수 있습니다.

전략

투명 시계는 스파이의 기본적인 시계이다.

투명화의 기본적인 전략은 스파이가 전투에서 사용하는 시계에 따라 다릅니다. 추가로, 적 팀은 그들을 시계의 어떤 종류에 대해 방어하기 위해서 그들의 행동을 달리할것입니다. 그러므로 스파이는 어떤 상대방의 공격에 대해서도 적응할 수 있도록 모든 투명화 종류에 능숙해야만 합니다.

투명 시계

본문: 투명 시계

With the Invisibility Watch, the default watch in the Spy loadout, and the Enthusiast's Timepiece, a promotional variation, can Cloak for a maximum of 9 seconds, during which they can move through enemy lines, across Sentry Gun paths, or away from attackers while remaining completely invisible. Picking up ammo in the form of boxes or dropped weapons will replenish the Cloak at the default rate. Map layout and location of various ammo points, therefore, are important to players who wish to remain cloaked for a longer period of time. Dispensers on either team can also fill the Cloak meter even when the Spy is cloaked. Be advised, however, that using an enemy Dispenser will require the correct disguise, and that the Spy may be discovered if bumped into by Engineers collecting their metal or any other class whom are healing themselves at the Dispenser.

Uncloaking will produce a quiet 'whooshing' sound that can be heard by other players in the immediate vicinity. Experienced Spies should therefore uncloak in an isolated location, preferably with an appropriate disguise, in order to avoid enemies who may start searching the area upon hearing the noise. Anyone using the Saharan Spy item set will have a reduced, almost silent decloak sound.

While cloaked, the Spy moves at his normal movement rate regardless of what class he is disguised as.

The direct counter of the Cloak is the Pyro. If set on fire while cloaked, the Spy will be rendered visible and will burn with a team-colored ambiance. Spies should avoid Pyros when cloaked; if bumped into, a Pyro may begin to Spycheck the vicinity in which case it can prove difficult to escape unharmed.

데드 링어

The Dead Ringer allows the Spy to feign his own death.

본문: 데드 링어

The Dead Ringer watch is unique in terms of cloaking. The watch does not produce a Cloak when the correct bound key is pressed, but rather it will be held up in the player's view in a ready position. Subsequently, the next time the Spy is dealt damage, either by enemies or environmental damage, he will drop a fake corpse and send a fake death to the 'kill list' and immediately become cloaked for a total of 6.5 seconds. During this time any damage received by the player will be reduced by 90% (potentially averting death from some normally fatal attacks such as a backstab or headshot), and will not shimmer if attacked or bumped into by enemies.

The corpse dropped is dependent on the disguise the player was using at the time. Dropping a friendly disguise as a corpse, therefore, may allow the Spy to move into enemy territory without arousing suspicion. It should be noted however that occasionally the dropped ragdoll is somewhat bugged and noticeable by experienced players, who may alert their team of a Dead Ringer Spy being present. Furthermore, activating the Dead Ringer upon being attacked once will almost immediately be suspicious to the enemy. Players should therefore wait a couple of seconds if under continuous fire before cloaking to provide a more convincing fake death. This should not apply to competent Snipers, Stickybomb traps or forms of critical attacks.

Spies with the Dead Ringer can collect ammo and use Dispensers to replenish the Cloak, albeit at a reduced amount compared to the Invisibility Watch. Once cloaked for longer than 6.5 seconds, however, the Spy will shimmer upon damage or contact with the enemy as with any other watch. Making a run through the map with the Dead Ringer, therefore, is just as risky as with the default watch. A level 3 Dispenser however can fully replenish a Dead Ringer within seconds, allowing the Spy to re-use the cloaking ability with remaining in close proximity to an enemy Engineer's nest.

The main disadvantage of the watch is the loud and distinctive decloaking sound, however, this can be negated with the Saharan Spy Set, which greatly reduces its volume. Players should therefore utilize cover or remote locations to uncloak. Should the Dead Ringer be heard, enemies may begin searching the area for the Spy. Due to the Cloak taking a long time to recharge without nearby ammo, uncloaking far from enemies is a priority if the player wishes to remain alive.

While the Dead Ringer Cloak is activated, the Spy can still be set on fire by a Pyro. The damage reduction, however, may allow the player to seek out water and extinguish themselves where otherwise they would have died. Many Pyros will continue to chase the Spy once alight, making escape more difficult. Should the Pyro prowl the area outside the water, players may consider hiding in the water for as long as the Cloak permits until the Pyro leaves. Shooting at the Pyro from the water is also a viable option, as his Flamethrower is ineffective underwater. On the other hand, leading the Pyro into a friendly Sentry Gun or experienced teammate may prove successful.

The length of the initial Cloak by the Dead Ringer can be valuable to teammates as a way of defending them from incoming projectiles, or blocking enemies. With a 90% reduction in damage, the player can prevent an ÜberCharged couple from advancing, or absorbing damage for a teammate of vital importance.

Aside from providing normal Cloak espionage, the Dead Ringer can serve as a paranoia tool. Making an obvious fake death can lead to enemies spending more time spychecking, possibly even causing Medics to deploy their ÜberCharge early in anticipation of being backstabbed. This can allow teammates an opportunity to advance on an objective under the Spy's command, or wait for the enemy ÜberCharge to end before activating their own.

망토와 단검

The Cloak and Dagger's battery can be recharged by remaining still or decloaking.

본문: 망토와 단검

The Cloak and Dagger watch serves as a sidegrade for the default watch. The Cloak will last for 6.2 seconds when the Spy is running, and cannot be replenished by ammo boxes. Instead the Cloak is recharged by standing completely still, or by decloaking.

Due to the nature of the recharge, a Cloak and Dagger Spy will mostly conduct his espionage standing still. Objects in the map such as boxes or corners will therefore provide strategic points from which to crouch and relay enemy movement to the team through chat or microphone. Additionally, these areas provide points from which players can backstab slow moving classes or sap buildings. Once the Spy performs these quick assassinations, they can return to their vantage point for the next unsuspecting victim. This can effectively cut off high traffic areas, as the enemy will become wary of using the route. Alternatively, they may send in a Pyro to flush out the Spy; should this happen, the player may want to seek a different place to hide.

Once the Cloak meter is drained, the Spy will have a clear visible outline, similar to being bumped into by an enemy. Coming to a halt will resume full invisibility, but any enemy players nearby that see this will attack. A crouch-walking Spy will drain the Cloak at a slower rate, but will move more slowly; because Cloak is drained based on movement speed this method does not provide any advantage in terms of how long it takes to travel long distances.
