Location Description
Tuck behind an armchair in crouch. Shadow side of the chair is stronger.
Why This Spot Works
Armchair Tuck on Mansion: Tuck behind an armchair in crouch. Shadow side of the chair is stronger. Furniture zones are not first-sweep; late crouch pass checks under chairs. External guides (mecchachameleongame.wiki Mansion Guide) emphasize: Crouch — shadow side of the chair is stronger. Mansion context — Learn living room vs study color zones before the round ends. Editorial rating 71/100 reflects guide difficulty tier from TheGamer, not aggregated match data.
Pro Tips
Sample carpet shadow under chair, not upholstery highlight. Crouch pose.
How to Win Here
TheGamer, IGN, and mecchachameleongame.wiki all recommend the in-game Eyedropper (Space) on the exact surface you touch — not fixed hex/RGB codes. Lighting and patches change effective values; the table below lists which surface to sample per body part and how to apply it.
- Tuck on the chair's shadow side; sample carpet/under-chair shadow, not upholstery highlight.
- Fabric mid-tone + nearby shadow two-tone; limbs must not break the chair footprint.
Color & Paint Plan
Body-part breakdown from published guides — sample with in-game Eyedropper (F → Space), then fine-tune HSV / metallic / roughness per surface.

|---|---|---|
| Chair-facing side | Chair back fabric mid-tone | Soft edges — no hard lines |
| Floor / under chair | Carpet shadow under chair | Legs and base use this tone |
| Shadow side | Dark wedge between chair and wall | Lower value |
Pose

Common Mistakes
- Copying the spot without the exact pose shown in community screenshots
- Sampling from a nearby surface instead of the pixel your body touches (SlashSkill eyedropper rule)
- Panicking and running when a seeker walks past instead of holding still
- Using default camera height habits — seekers eventually look up (Sewer pipe meta)
