Using Sentry Devices in Fortnite Creative

The Sentry device spawns an artificial intelligence (AI) bot that usually attacks players when they come in range. As a device, you can place sentries anywhere.

To find the Sentry device, go to the Creative inventory and select the Devices tab. From there you can search or browse for the device. For more information on finding devices see Finding and Placing Devices.

If you're using multiple copies of a device on an island, it can be helpful to rename them. You can choose names that relate to each device's purpose, so it's easier to remember what each one does.

Device Options

Basic options include setting the sentry health and what weapons you want to arm a sentry with.

Contextual Filtering

Some devices are affected by a feature called contextual filtering. This feature hides or displays options depending on the values selected for certain related options. This reduces clutter in the Customize panel and makes options easier to manage and navigate. To help identify them, values that trigger contextual filtering are in italic.
