Noli Forsaken killer stats 2026 chart — 17 base speed, 150 HP, 35 attack damage, stealth ambush class

Noli's base stats in the current 2026 patch (community-tracked). Chart by ForsakenHub.

Noli is a mindgame killer: you don’t win by raw speed—you win by making survivors play wrong because they can’t trust what they see. If you like killers that feel “smart” (baiting rotates, denying information, forcing survivors into bad choices), Noli is one of the most rewarding picks in Forsaken. He was added in mid‑2025 (community listing) and plays around hallucinations, burst engages, and information pressure. This guide teaches a practical plan: how to start chases, how to convert hallucinations into real hits, and how survivors counter you so you stop feeding them safe patterns.

Quick Stats: Noli (Community Listing)

  • Unlock Cost: 1,100 Player Points
  • Added: July 11, 2025 (Update 3.0.0; community listing)
  • Core Mechanic: Hallucination pressure (misinformation)
  • Void Rush Cooldown: 20s (community listing)
  • Observant Cooldown: 30s (community listing)
  • Best Strength: Turning uncertainty into forced misplays

Pause when the player uses Observant: ask “what decision did that information enable?” That’s the real skill.

Noli Toolkit (What Each Button Is For)

Noli feels weak if you press buttons “because they are up.” He feels oppressive when each tool has a job: find → threaten → convert.

ToolCooldownJobBest UseSurvivor Counterplay
Void Rush20sEngage tool (close distance / force panic).Use as a commitment punish when survivors over-run a lane or hesitate at a corner.Hard turns behind cover; pre-rotations so the rush doesn’t connect cleanly.
Observant30sInformation tool (decision maker).Pop it before you choose a chase direction so you stop guessing which side is “busy”.Split wider; reduce noise/visibility; avoid obvious re-peeks.
Hallucination SystemPassive / meter-basedMisinformation: makes survivors doubt reads.Build it early, then use it to force wrong rotates and punish indecision.Slow, disciplined pathing; “hold W” to avoid mindgames.

If your games feel inconsistent, you’re likely using Void Rush like a chase crutch. Use Observant to choose the right fight first.

How To Play Noli Without “Gambling”

Noli looks like a highlight killer, but consistent Noli is about control: forcing survivors into low-information decisions where any choice is bad.

1) Your First Goal Is Hallucination Value, Not Downs

You don’t need an early down to win; you need survivors to start doubting their reads.

  • Take short chases early to build pressure and force survivors into faster, sloppier rotates.
  • Avoid long “prove I’m better” loops—Noli wins when survivors are rushed, not when they are comfortable.
  • Use Observant early so you don’t waste 30 seconds searching the wrong side of the map.
  • Once hallucination pressure is present, start forcing corner decisions: survivors choose a turn before they have full information.
  • When a survivor hesitates (the tiny stop at a doorway/corner), that’s your Void Rush cue.

2) Void Rush Is Strongest As a Punish

Use it when the survivor already committed to something. If you Rush into uncertainty, you are the one gambling.

  • Hold Rush until you see a lane commitment (straight path, wide-open run, or late vault).
  • Rush angles matter: choose lines where the survivor cannot hard-turn into a wall and break your connection.
  • If the survivor is playing corners perfectly, walk and herd them into a longer lane, then Rush.
  • After a successful Rush, take the reliable hit instead of trying to “out-mindgame” for a faster down.
  • If you miss Rush, reset immediately—don’t throw the chase. Use Observant on cooldown so your next decision is correct.

3) Observant Is Your Anti-Throw Button

Most Noli losses are not mechanical; they are “wrong place, wrong time”.

  • Use Observant whenever you feel lost, even if it “feels early”. An early correct decision beats a late perfect one.
  • If Observant shows the lobby split, take the side with the highest progress potential (objectives/rescues).
  • If Observant shows a cluster, don’t dive into a tight loop—rotate to cut off exits and force them into your lanes.
  • Treat Observant as your permission slip to drop chase: if you learn the map is burning elsewhere, go there.
  • The moment survivors stop respecting your presence, your win condition becomes restoring fear through smart rotations.

Matchups: What Survivors Will Do Against Noli

Once survivors know you are Noli, many will try to remove mindgame potential by playing “boring”. That’s fine—you can punish boring too.

Common Survivor Plan

These are the habits you should expect in better lobbies.

  • Fewer peeks and fewer greedy vaults (they don’t want to give you commitment tells).
  • Wide “hold W” rotations to deny corner mindgames and hallucination value.
  • More splitting: one survivor baits chase while others quietly progress objectives.
  • Stalling Rush: hard turns behind cover and floor changes to break your clean lines.

Your Answers

Noli’s answers are mostly about choosing the right targets and lanes.

  • If they hold W, you win by map control: use Observant to intercept and stop full resets.
  • If they split, you take short chases and force multiple injured states instead of tunneling one looper.
  • If they slow-play corners, force longer lanes by herding them away from tight tiles before you Rush.
  • If they try to “starve” hallucination value, punish them by playing aggressively around objectives where they must commit.
  • Keep your tempo: Noli feels weak only when you waste time searching.

Noli Pitfalls

If you press Void Rush on cooldown, you’ll miss, lose distance, and turn a control kit into a coin flip. Use Rush as a punish, and use Observant to choose the correct fight before you invest 30 seconds.

Final Thoughts

Noli rewards discipline. Use Observant to stop guessing, build hallucination pressure early, and treat Void Rush like a punish button. When survivors can’t trust their reads, they rotate late—and late rotations are where Noli wins.

  • Use Observant to pick the correct side of the map.
  • Build hallucination pressure before you demand downs.
  • Void Rush is strongest on committed lanes.
  • Win by making survivors hesitate, then punishing it.

Noli at 1,100 Player Points

Noli is the most expensive killer discussed here at 1,100 Player Points, and the kit justifies the price with mobility rather than raw damage. Void Rush and Nova are both about closing ground and creating confusion, letting him hunt down survivors relentlessly rather than out-waiting them. He is based on the Roblox urban legend surrounding a user of the same name, and the revamped version is the one currently in rotation.

A rush kit is worth far more on a map with long connected sightlines than on one that is chopped into small rooms, which is why Noli placements move around when the map rotation shifts. It is also why SFOTH and Generator Hell play so differently for him: neither map has generators, so there are no puzzle sites to pressure and the round becomes purely about running survivors down before the clock expires.

Survivors shorten the round by three seconds per generator puzzle layer and twelve per finished generator. Every second Noli spends crossing the map to a survivor who has already moved is a second the remaining three are converting into clock reduction. Aggression only pays when it lands.

Noli on the two maps without generators

SFOTH and Generator Hell contain no generators, which removes both the survivor clock lever and the killer interruption play. What remains is pure pursuit, and that is precisely what Void Rush and Nova are for. Noli is arguably at his best on these two maps and at his most expensive-feeling on tightly partitioned generator maps, where a control kit like John Doe Corrupt Energy and Digital Footprint extracts more value per second.

Player Points come only from public matchmaking, and they come from contribution rather than survival time — a generator puzzle layer pays 5 Player Points and 15 EXP, and a generator is four layers deep. Private servers award nothing at all, which makes them a place to rehearse rather than a place to grind. At 1,100 Noli is the priciest of the killers discussed here, so it is worth learning the role on free c00lkidd or Slasher before committing.

Mobility against the clock

Rushing pays only when it lands, and the clock is how you tell.

A round is four minutes long. Survivors win by outlasting it and killers extend it by eliminating people, so the only lever survivors control is the generators. On most maps there are five, each a Numberlink wire puzzle four layers deep. A completed layer removes three seconds from the clock and pays 5 Player Points and 15 EXP; a finished generator removes twelve seconds; clearing all five removes a full minute. The puzzle regenerates if you are interrupted, so unbanked layers are lost entirely rather than paused. Two maps, SFOTH and Generator Hell, have no generators at all, which removes the lever completely and turns those rounds into pure survival against the clock.

The roster is fixed-ability rather than build-based. Survivors come in three classes: Survivalists Noob (free) and 007n7 (500 Player Points) look after themselves; Sentinels Shedletsky (free), Two Time and Guest 1337 (500 each) and Chance (777) interfere with the killer directly; and Elliot (free) is the only Support. Killers are c00lkidd and Slasher (both free), John Doe (1,000) and Noli (1,100). With no perks and no loadouts, picking a character is picking your role for the round, and nothing unlocked later changes how an existing character plays.

Last Man Standing is the phase most guides skip. When one survivor remains the timer resets to 1 minute 14 seconds, the music changes, and both players are highlighted to each other for six seconds. Every plan that depended on concealment stops working at that moment, on every map. Abilities held back for a dramatic finish are usually abilities wasted.
