Cook Stats and Ability in TCM
Cook has the following starting attributes in Texas Chain Saw Massacre.
- Savagery: 35
- Blood Harvesting: 25
- Endurance: 10
For the best Cook build in Texas Chain Saw Massacre, spend your points in Blood Harvesting and Savagery while focusing your gameplay on feeding Grandpa.
His base Endurance is low and you won’t have much success if you just try to chase survivors on your own. Work together with another fast Family member like Sissy and you’ll be way more successful.
However, if you want to focus on chasing survivors, spend your points on Endurance and Savagery.
Also, Cook comes with the following ability:
- Seek: Allows Cook to listen carefully for any strange sounds around the map. Then, he can focus on those sounds and pinpoint the location of the Victim that caused them.
This ability makes Cook an amazing tracking character and is a must-have in every team since spotting victims isn’t easy otherwise.
In terms of secondary abilities, Cook is slim enough to fit in tight spots and chase victims when other Family members can’t.
To maximize the strength of his Seek ability, here are the best Cook ability modifiers in TCM:
- Level 1: Increase Detection Range (increase victim detection range by 10/20%).
- Level 2: Quicker Recharge Rate (increase ability bar recharge rate by 21/45%).
- Level 3: All Family See Noise (all Family members see highlighted victims).
With these modifiers, Cook will spot victims more consistently and reveal their locations to all Family members.
