** Arts and Crafters' mechanic of teleporting you to the starting point.

Fortunately, Arts and Crafters can only do it once per run. This also happens in the older version of the camping minigame, where wandering too far out past the sign triggers his spawn and causes him to teleport you to the burnt out campfire where Baldi is.

This can temporarily get the player way out of range from Baldi, and even can rarely put the player inside the Mystery Room (which Baldi can't enter), but he can teleport the player into faculty rooms, which can thus make the player at risk of Principal of the Thing. This was patched to removed the teleportation area making noise, which gave the player more time to get away since now Baldi would lose them. Ultimately, it would be patched for a final time by now teleporting the player near one of the elevators in the building, and teleporting Baldi as well once again like in ''Classic'', putting the player between Baldi and the elevator.

** Detentions. While some of the rules you need to follow do make sense, you have to ''not'' follow them in order to beat the game, I.E. you need to run to move through the school faster, and using the [=BSoda=] can give you distance between you and Baldi.

** Arts and Crafters' mechanic of teleporting you to the starting point. Despite him being active only after you got [=7/7=] notebooks, this can ruin any good run, due to him also teleporting Baldi to the starting point as well, which means, unless you have a [=BSoda=] to use on him, YouAreAlreadyDead. This also happens in the older version of the camping minigame, where wandering too far out past the sign triggers his spawn and causes him to teleport you to the burnt out campfire where Baldi is. He gets worse in ''Baldi's Basics Plus'', which can have him get angry at you at any time regardless of how many notebooks you have, the only thing the player can do being to not look at him, since that is the main trigger. When he teleports you, he now takes you to a random place in the building, and fortunately, doesn't bring Baldi with him this time around.

* CatharsisFactor: Given how frequently Playtime can result in a game-over, especially for players of the first version, being able to engage in a very literal case of CuttingTheKnot - i.e, her skipping rope - with the safety scissors is immeasurably satisfying. Of course, it might backfire if the Principal sees you do it and promptly sends you to detention.

** The jumprope minigame with [[BaseBreakingCharacter Playtime]]. When she catches you, you have to jump 5 times, but if you mess up, you have to start over, but the biggest reason on why this is annoying is because if Baldi is close, this can lead to you dying. Thankfully, you can avoid this by using the Safety Scissors, but if the Principal is close, you're sent to detention, thus screwing you over even more.

** Playtime and the Principal. With Playtime, she forces you to do a game of jump-rope before letting you go, increasing the risk of Baldi killing you or catching up. The Principal is worse, as if he sees you breaking school rules, he instantly gives chase, and doesn't stop until he catches you. When he does, he puts you on detention for a certain amount of time, and this gives Baldi a chance to catch up, or, if the time is still ticking, kill you, especially if you have a ''99-second detention''. If you have the Principal's Keys, you can escape detention, but there's a chance of the Principal putting you back into detention. In [[GameMod Baldi's BRUTAL Basics in Education and Learning]], these two are a lot harder to deal with, as Playtime will force you to jump-rope 10 times (and messing up wastes 7 seconds), and the Principal automatically puts you in a 99-second detention when you're caught by him. As of [=v.1.3.1=] in the base game, they even have a form of synergy, almost, as the Principal can punish you if he's nearby when you use the Safety Scissors on Playtime's jump rope.
