**Jack**, or **The Ripper**, is one of **22** Hunters  currently featured in *Identity V* .

## Overview

Jack is a very good Hunter for newer players. It is easy to defeat survivors with his invisibility and increased movement speed. However, when there is no fog, his movement speed is slow.

## Background

Before becoming "The Ripper", he was a student of James Whistler, a renowned artist influenced by Edgar Degas. Who would guess that a well-dressed gentleman during the day will, when darkness falls, walk into an alley and stalk poor women? As "The Ripper" gained infamy, the boundary between his two identities began to fade. Of course, before you see his true face, "The Ripper" is still happy to take a walk at night.

## Abilities

These are thee Abilities that are unique to **The Ripper**:

**Fog**
While in the Fog, The Ripper has increased movement speed and greatly reduced Hidden Mist Cooldown.
Cooldown: 14 seconds

## Tips

1. Use the foggy blade to your advantage. Aim it well and you can hit survivors from a distance. Follow the fog trial behind survivors you hit. Walk on the fog trail to gain a slight speed boost to catch up with the survivors.
2. Do not throw the foggy blade randomly. Aim well as this can be your greatest weapon. Not only does the fog give you a speed boost, you also take less time to take your next hit. This can be used to hit survivors trying to rescue from a teammate from a rocket chair. Hit the survivor with a foggy blade from far a short distance and immediately follow up with a regular attack.
3. The foggy blade can pass through walls if you hug the wall. Peeper is a good skill on the Ripper as you can see Survivors through walls and hit them with the foggy blade more accurately.
4. When detention kicks in, try not to hit a Survivor on full health with a foggy blade, go close to them and hit them with a regular attack as the foggy blade deals only half damage even with detention. Hitting Survivors with the foggy blade also provides a speed boost, and Survivors might use the speed boost to reach the exit gate or the dungeon.
