Takeaways

• 😀 Start by winding up the music box on Cam 11 as soon as the night begins. It begins running down right away on Night 2.
• 😀 Don't believe the hoax that old Freddy, Bonnie, and Chica move around on Night 2. They do not move until Night 3.
• 😀 Animatronics, including Foxy and Mangle, do not appear in the hallway until 1 AM when their AI starts moving.
• 😀 Mangle’s audio cue (garbled radio static) indicates that Mangle is near or you're looking at it. Pay attention to this sound!
• 😀 If you hear radio static and Mangle isn't visible, it’s in the right vent. Quickly put on the Freddy mask to avoid getting killed.
• 😀 Maintain a pattern: check the left vent light, use the flashlight, check the right vent light, wind the music box, and then use the Freddy mask if needed.
• 😀 It's important to consciously check for animatronics in the vents before raising the monitor, especially in later nights.
• 😀 Use your flashlight to stun animatronics in the hallway. This works for Toy Freddy, Foxy, and any other animatronics present.
• 😀 Flashing the flashlight multiple times (about 3-4) on Foxy will stun him and reset his attack timer, preventing him from attacking.
• 😀 When the radio static stops, Mangle is no longer in the right vent. You can safely remove the Freddy mask at this point.
• 😀 The key to succeeding on Night 2 is a consistent pattern and quick reactions. Once you understand the mechanics, the night becomes manageable.

Q & A

What is the first step to take when starting Night 2 in Five Nights at Freddy's 2?

The first step is to pull up the monitor, switch to cam 11, and start winding the music box immediately. This is essential as the music box starts winding down at the beginning of Night 2.

Why do some players believe that old Freddy, Bonnie, and Chica can move during Night 2, and is this true?

Some players mistakenly believe that old Freddy, Bonnie, and Chica can move on Night 2, but this is not true. These animatronics, except for Foxy, do not start moving until Night 3.

What should you do if you hear garbled radio static during Night 2?

The garbled radio static indicates that Mangle is either near you or you are currently looking at Mangle on the camera. If Mangle isn't visible on the camera, the static means Mangle is likely in the right vent, so you should immediately put on the Freddy mask.

What is the importance of the Freddy mask during Night 2?

The Freddy mask is essential for surviving encounters with animatronics like Toy Bonnie, Mangle, and others. If an animatronic appears in the vent or in the office, putting on the mask prevents them from attacking.

Can you prevent Foxy from attacking during Night 2, and if so, how?

Yes, you can prevent Foxy from attacking by using the flashlight. Flashing the flashlight at Foxy will stun him, and you should repeat this several times (about three or four flashes) to keep him at bay.

How does the flashlight work on other animatronics besides Foxy?

The flashlight will stun any animatronics in the hallway, not just Foxy. By shining the flashlight at animatronics like Toy Freddy, you prevent them from moving and attacking, similar to how it works for Foxy.

What is the recommended strategy for checking the hallway during Night 2?

The strategy involves checking the left vent light, using the flashlight if necessary, checking the right vent light, winding the music box, and putting on the Freddy mask when needed. This pattern ensures you stay safe and keep the animatronics at bay.

What should you do if you raise the monitor and see an animatronic in the vent?

If you see an animatronic in the vent after raising the monitor, you need to quickly put on the Freddy mask. This prevents the animatronic from attacking you while you are distracted by the monitor.

Is there any way to delay the attack of Foxy during later nights, and how does it work?

Yes, you can delay Foxy's attack by shining the flashlight on him. Every time you flash the flashlight at Foxy, it resets his attack timer, preventing him from attacking you immediately.

What happens when the clock reaches 6 AM during Night 2?

Once the clock reaches 6 AM, the night ends, and you survive. This provides a brief cutscene, signaling the completion of the night. The player has learned crucial game mechanics, which will help them in later nights.
