Whether you’re slicing through threats as Shedletsky, gambling with fate as Chance, or tanking hits as Guest 1337 in Forsaken, this guide has you covered. I’ll break down each character’s abilities and sprinkle in personal tips to help you crush your enemies—or at least run circles around them.
Forsaken Survivor Guide – Sentinels
For this guide, I’ll be breaking down the Sentinel archetype of survivors—featuring Guest 1337, Shedletsky, and Chance. I’ll showcase their abilities and share personal tips to help you master each character effectively.
Forsaken is constantly updated, so information in this guide may become outdated over time. If major changes occur, I’ll do my best to provide updated details for the guide.
Shedletsky
Shedletsky boasts a standard 100 HP and 100 Stamina, along with two primary abilities: Slash and Fried Chicken.
Abilities
- Slash
- Shedletsky draws the iconic Sword Fight on the Heights blade and delivers a forward slash.
- Effect: Stuns the killer for 4 seconds if hit.
- Cooldown: 40 seconds, unlimited uses.
- Tip: The move has a long wind-up, but Shedletsky gains damage resistance while charging, letting him tank a hit to land the attack. However, missing will leave him vulnerable and unable to run for a short period.
- Fried Chicken
- Shedletsky pulls out a piece of fried chicken—don’t ask where from—and restores 35 HP.
- Cooldown: 70 seconds, limited to 2 uses.
- Tip: Eating slows him down, so always heal in a safe spot.
Playstyle Tips
Shedletsky is a hit-and-run specialist. Use Slash to interrupt the killer and buy time for teammates, then retreat to heal up. Leverage his effective 170 HP pool to tank damage strategically, but avoid overcommitting in fights. Balance aggression with caution to dominate with him.
Chance
Chance is a wildcard, with randomized stats ranging from 80–100 HP and dynamic abilities driven by risk and reward.
Abilities
- Coin Flip
- Flips a coin, affecting all other abilities.
- Heads: Gains 1 charge. (Max: 3)
- Tails: Gains weakness stacks, increasing vulnerability.
- Tip: Gamble carefully—poor timing can make Chance fragile.
- Flips a coin, affecting all other abilities.
- Shoot
- Fires a flintlock pistol in a straight line.
- Effect: Stuns the killer on hit but may backfire, dealing 45 damage to Chance.
- Cooldown: 40 seconds.
- Tip: Stockpile charges for better odds and minimize risk.
- Roll

- Tip: Use this to optimize stats mid-game or adapt quickly.
- Hat Fix
- Removes all weakness stacks and repairs the gun.
- Cooldown: 70 seconds, requires 3 charges.

Playstyle Tips
Chance is a high-risk, high-reward character. Use Shoot for long-range stuns but balance risk with preparation—always keep a charge ready. Adapt your strategy based on stats and weakness stacks, and avoid over-gambling to prevent costly mistakes.
Guest 1337
Guest 1337 stands out with 115 HP, making him the tankiest Sentinel. His aggressive toolkit excels at disrupting the killer’s plans.
Abilities
- Charge
- Dashes forward, knocking back and stunning the killer for 1.25 seconds.
- Cooldown: 45 seconds.
- Tip: Grants invulnerability when landing a hit. Avoid spamming as consecutive hits lose effect.
- Block
- Functions as a parry, nullifying damage and granting speed boost if hit while active.
- Cooldown: 24 seconds.
- Tip: Time this well to deflect projectiles and melee attacks.
- Punch
- Lunges forward to stun the killer for 2 seconds (3.5 seconds if used after a block).
- Cooldown: 24 seconds.
- Tip: Land the upgraded punch for extra damage and style points—unlocking the V1 Guest Skin.
Playstyle Tips
Guest 1337 thrives on aggression, forcing the killer to focus on him while teammates complete objectives. Use Charge and Punch to stun enemies, and Block to protect teammates. Despite his durability, cooldowns are long—avoid reckless plays and know when to retreat.
