Roblox Forsaken: Killer Tips That'll Make You a Legend (Or at Least Less of a Noob)
Alright, listen up, future Forsaken fiends! You wanna dominate as the Killer in Roblox Forsaken, right? You're tired of getting juked around corners, flashlight stunned into oblivion, and generally being the laughing stock of the lobby? I get it. Been there. Done that. Bought the t-shirt (which is probably covered in blood stains, ironically).
This isn't your typical, dry, regurgitated guide. We're gonna dive deep into actual strategies, some sneaky tactics, and a whole lot of "thinking like a Survivor" to turn you into a Forsaken force to be reckoned with. So buckle up, sharpen your claws (metaphorically, of course, unless you're really into cosplay), and let's get started.
Mastering the Basics (Before You Get Fancy)
Look, before you start trying to pull off advanced mind games, you gotta nail the fundamentals. It's like trying to build a skyscraper on a foundation made of marshmallows – it just ain't gonna work.
Map Knowledge is King (or Queen): Seriously, know the maps like the back of your hand. Where are the pallets? Where are the windows? Where are the potential escape routes? The better you know the layout, the faster you can cut off Survivors and predict their movements. There are plenty of YouTube videos showcasing map layouts. Spend some time studying them!
Understanding Your Killer's Abilities: Each Killer in Forsaken has unique powers and weaknesses. Some are better at chasing, some at trapping, some at disrupting the game. Figure out what YOUR killer is good at and lean into it. Don't try to play the Trapper like you're playing the Blinker, it'll just end badly. Read the ability descriptions. Experiment. Find what works.
Basic Chasing Techniques: Okay, this sounds obvious, but so many Killers mess this up. Don't just blindly run at Survivors. Predict their movements. Cut off their escape routes. Feint. Pretend to go one way, then quickly change direction. These little tricks can often be enough to get a hit. Also, learn how to pallet mind game - it takes practice, but it's a key skill.
Advanced Strategies: Thinking Like a Survivor
Now we're getting into the good stuff. To really excel as Killer, you need to understand how Survivors think and what they're trying to accomplish.
Predicting Pallet Drops: Survivors are often predictable around pallets. They'll run up to it, wait for you to get close, and then drop it on your head. Don't fall for it. Sometimes it's better to back off slightly or even walk around the pallet entirely. This can bait the Survivor into dropping it prematurely or even running straight into you.
Window Vaulting Mind Games: Windows are another common juke spot. Learn to predict when a Survivor will vault a window. You can sometimes catch them mid-vault or even right after they land. Again, feinting is your friend. Pretend to vault, then double back. Or, if you think they're going to vault, run around to the other side.
Gen Pressure is Everything: Don't get tunnel vision on one Survivor. If you're spending too much time chasing someone and they're looping you effectively, you're losing valuable time. Keep an eye on the generators. If they're popping too quickly, you need to switch targets or patrol between gens to put pressure on the Survivors. A good strategy is to patrol generators that are close to each other.
The Power of Sound: Listen closely! You can often hear Survivors repairing generators, healing each other, or even just running around. Use this audio information to your advantage. Headphones are a MUST. Seriously, get some decent headphones.
Nasty Tactics (Use With Caution... or Not!)
Okay, let's talk about some borderline strategies that can give you a serious edge. Some people might consider these "toxic," but hey, all's fair in love and Forsaken, right? (Just kidding... sort of.)
Camping and Tunneling: I'm not going to tell you these are good strategies, ethically speaking. But they can be effective, especially if you're struggling. Camping (staying near a hooked Survivor) and tunneling (focusing on eliminating one Survivor) can quickly turn the tide of a match. However, be warned: other players will get salty, and you might get targeted in future matches. Use with extreme prejudice.
Slugging: Down a Survivor and leave them on the ground instead of hooking them. This can buy you time to pressure other Survivors or prevent a rescue. However, be careful not to slug too many Survivors at once, or you'll just have a bunch of downed players that other Survivors can easily pick up.
Flashlight Baiting: Sometimes, if you see a Survivor running towards you with a flashlight, try to deliberately walk into a wall. This can bait them into attempting a flashlight stun, which can leave them vulnerable for a quick hit.
Final Thoughts: Practice Makes Perfect (and Less of a Noob)
Look, becoming a Forsaken legend isn't going to happen overnight. It takes time, practice, and a willingness to learn from your mistakes. Don't get discouraged if you get stomped a few times. We all started somewhere. Just keep playing, keep experimenting, and keep learning. And most importantly, have fun! It's just a game, after all. (Unless you're really competitive, in which case, may the Forsaken gods be ever in your favor!)
Good luck out there, Killer! And may your hooks always be full. 😉
