If the player is viewing the Monitor and hears the faint sound of breathing/moaning, it means that either Bonnie or Chica will be waiting to attack when the screen is lowered. Unlike the other three animatronics, Foxy stays in Pirate Cove until he is triggered to attack, which happens when the player watches the cameras too little.

It was proven that looking too much at the cameras doesn't actually trigger Foxy - he will keep missing his movement opportunities until the camera is down. He will then sprint down the West Hall toward the Office. To determine whether Foxy is or will shortly be attacking, the player can check on CAM 1C if the curtains concealing Pirate Cove are open and Foxy is missing, he is already on his way (Rarely, when checking on CAM 1C and Foxy is on his way, the sign in front of Pirate Cove will say " IT'S ME," instead of saying " Sorry! -Out of Order-") However, whether or not the camera is viewed does not determine whether he's coming he can and will attack the player if neglected.

Viewing the West Hall once Foxy has left will trigger his sprint animation, leaving the player with only a moment to close the door.

If Foxy reaches the room and the left door is closed, he will simply bang on it four times before returning to Pirate Cove. Whenever he bangs on the door, some of the player's power is drained as a result. The percentage of power drained follows the equation 5n-4%, where n is the number of times Foxy has attacked, including the current one. He would, therefore, drain 1% the first time he comes to the door, 6% for the second, then 11%, 16% and so on. If he were to show up 7 times (which is impossible), he would drain the remaining power completely. A method commonly employed to delay Foxy's attack is to view Pirate Cove, and if he is missing, immediately shut the left door, then view CAM 2A to trigger his sprint.

He will then simply bang on the door and reset.ĭespite being able to view Pirate Cove to temporarily stop Foxy's attacks, it is not possible to stop them completely, meaning that Foxy must always be of a high priority.įurther into the game, Freddy will begin to advance towards the player. He is more direct when it comes to reaching the player, staying in the dark and out of view as he beelines toward the Office.
