Jane has the strongest listed chopping bonus, high movement and sprint bonuses, plus smaller defensive, stealth and ranged tools.

Best for: wood-heavy routes and players who value movement. Jane’s broad ability list supports fast field work, but her reduced daytime view range means speed should be paired with deliberate scouting.

Who is Jane “Splinter” Holloway?

The official profile describes Jane as a former lumberjack and expert woodsman hunting the marauders who destroyed her village. Her axe and survival background translate into the roster’s largest published chopping bonus.

Jane is balanced at 90/100/100 and gains several movement and survival tools. The visible tradeoff is daytime sight, so moving faster does not eliminate the need to check the terrain ahead.

Practical build direction

Favor chopping efficiency, movement and a ranged option that uses her published damage bonus. Plan wood-gathering loops that end near a camp or extraction route. If extra Traits become available, choose between reinforcing her speed or compensating for sight and survivability rather than spreading across every role.

Field note

Jane’s axe is central to her character story, but the official page does not publish unique weapon damage or special attack values.
