The Treachstone John Doe skin is one of the harder unlocks currently available in Forsaken because it requires players to clear one of the toughest game modes available.
This guide explains exactly how to unlock the skin and what you need to complete beforehand.
Unlock Requirements
Before you can even attempt the Treachstone John Doe skin challenge, you need access to Torment Mode.
Torment Mode is essentially the game’s extreme difficulty setting and is significantly harder than normal gameplay.
Because of that, you should complete:
- Chapter 1
- Chapter 2
- Chapter 3
all on Normal Mode first before trying the harder version.
How to Enter Torment Mode
To access Torment Mode:
- Open Forsaken
- Go to Battle Perks
- Press the purple gear icon
- Select Torment Mode
Once selected, the game will switch to the higher difficulty version.
How to Unlock Treachstone John Doe
The actual unlock requirement is tied specifically to Chapter 3 in Torment Mode.
To get the skin:
- Enter Torment Mode
- Start Chapter 3
- Defeat the Extreme Boss
- Complete the chapter successfully
After defeating the boss and finishing the chapter, you should automatically unlock the Treachstone John Doe skin.
Why the Skin Is Difficult to Get
This unlock takes time because you first need to:
- Progress through all normal chapters
- Learn boss mechanics
- Survive Torment difficulty
- Clear Chapter 3 successfully
Torment enemies hit much harder than normal mode, so going in unprepared usually ends with quick wipes.
Recommended Preparation
Before attempting the skin unlock, it helps to:
- Finish all normal chapters first
- Learn boss attack patterns
- Bring experienced teammates if possible
- Upgrade your preferred perks and loadout beforehand
Trying to rush directly into Torment Mode early will usually make the grind much harder.
