Glow Sticks are a consumable item that are most commonly found in resource containers. They can sometimes be found on shelves, benches, or the ground. Glow sticks are always found in bundles of twelve. After the last glow stick is thrown, the player automatically switches to their melee weapon.
When thrown, the Glow Stick emits a dim green light, providing limited illumination in the surrounding area for one minute. As Glow Sticks do not alert Sleepers, they provide a safe alternative to flashlights in very dark areas.
Glow Stick colors temporarily change during certain holidays or events; such as red during Christmas of Rundown 004, and orange during Halloween of Rundown 005. Other than coloration, there is no difference in their functionality.
Usage[ | ]
Glow Sticks are used to provide a light source that is undetectable by Sleepers. Suitable for situations where a player's flashlight may risk awakening nearby Sleepers. Glow Sticks are also useful in marking safe paths during stealth sections, where one player leads, setting "breadcrumbs" for other players to follow. Players with the Bio Trackers may also use Glow Sticks to alert other players to nearby danger.
