The building answers to us.
Fire Drill: This is a drill. Please do not use the lifts. Every enemy on screen stops, forms orderly lines and files to the assembly point for 8 seconds.
Which skills does it have?
These are the eight skills only Facilities can draw. They turn up on level-up cards more than twice as often as shared ones. Numbers are at rank 5 with no bonuses, and a skill with a partner listed can evolve once you own that passive at rank 5.
| Skill | Shape | Rank 5 dmg/s | Evolves with | What it does |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Wet Floor | Mine | 693 | Comfortable Shoes → Recently Polished | Drops a yellow cone. Anything that crosses the slick goes down for two seconds. |
| Sprinkler Test | Rain | 111.2 | None | A circle of rain. Everything inside is soaked, 40% slower, and nothing can charge through it. |
| HVAC Override | Line | 27.4 | Boundaries → Climate Control | A wind lane down one corridor. Everything in it is pushed the way you are facing. |
| Master Key | Dash | 107 | None | A dash through anything, walls included. Hits everything on the way. |
| Floor Polisher | Lane vehicle | 10.2 | None | A polisher crosses the floor in a straight line. It is 9 a.m. It is always 9 a.m. |

| Elevator Recall | Drop from above | 23.2 | None | A lift car lands where you point. Hold the door. |
| Desk Move | Zone | 18.5 | None | The furniture in the zone rearranges itself. Everything in it is stunned while it looks for its desk. |
What are its career tracks?
Facilities has three tracks: Climate, Custodial, Grounds. Each holds ten talents, including three milestones that open at 10, 20 and 30 points in that track. You will earn up to 51 points in this department, so you can finish one track and get into a second.
