Top 4 Fortnite Items that Need to Be Vaulted

Fortnite Items Vaulted

Epic has been on a pattern of vaulting countless amounts of items and introducing crappy or OP new ones. Some of the items are too powerful, while others have become so useless that they have become a treasure chest filler. So in season 8, I think they need to fix the item pool and then get rid of items that shouldn't be in the game. Here are the four items U4N think that need to be vaulted.

Heavy Sniper

fortnite Heavy Sniper

A sniper rifle in Fortnite allows you to destroy a completely healthy opponent without a shield. But heavy snipers can eliminate healthy and half shield opponents while destroying any structure by inflicting at least 1050 damage to the structure.

The heavy sniper's high damage bonus averages 150 damage, which is the minimum damage to the enemy. It may not kill an opponent with a full shield in a single shot, but it is enough for the user to switch guns and fire at the victim until two or three SMGs hit them. Heavy Sniper damage needs to be adjusted slightly, up to 140 damage, allowing half-shield players to survive.

The Rocket Launcher

Until today, the existence of rocket launchers in Fortnite is still a mystery. It caused ridiculously explosive damage in a wide area. If your opponent shoots a rocket at you from a short distance, you can't defend yourself and be eliminated. If you hide behind a wall with a rocket incoming, you must pray that your opponent won't tear down your wall in a flash second the rocket needs to go through the wall tile and hit you in the face.

Rocket launchers cause too much damage and don't require any skill, making them the perfect weapon to break anyone's fun in Fortnite.

The Baller

The Baller is a vehicle in Battle Royale that was introduced in Patch 8.10. For Fortnite players, vehicles have always been a pain, and The Baller is a nightmare for the season. Its exceptional mobility due to the built-in grappler and its 200 hit points that shield the driver entirely from outside damage make it an overpowered item. Although the driver cannot shoot even though controlling it, the survivability it grants is adequate to create it deserve an enormous nerf, significantly larger than the one Epic deployed yesterday.

The Baller was supposed to be nerfed to let players outside it to directly hit the driver via the glass, but Epic gave up on that notion and just decreased its health.

The Bush

Fortnite The Bush

The Bush is a consumable item, which can disguise the player as an inconspicuous bush according to the official description. However, no one remembers the existence of Bush. Maybe it's only when you get it from the chest and ignore it because you don't want to be a clear fake jungle, with two legs and a rocket launcher in hands climbing up the slope to counter the opponent. This is a terrible camouflage that has rarely been used because it is easy for the opponent to notice that the player is wearing it. It occupies a chest position in the game and can be allocated to another more useful item.

Also, Epic brought Reboot Van to Fortnite with patch v8.30, what are your thought with the new item in fortnite? Let us know in the comments section below.

Fortnite Seasons Recap: Top 5 Most Popular Spots Among Players

Top 5 Most Popular Spots Among Fortnite Players

Every season there is a new set of map changes and updates both big and small. It's been two weeks since the release of Season 8. A jungle area now covers the northeastern portion on the map, and quite a few named locations have drastically changed. So which spot was your favorite in previous seasons? We have an overview of the top 5 most popular spots among players.

Top 1 - Wailing Woods

Wailing Woods was an area on the Battle Royale map located at the north of Lonely Lodge and east of Tomato Temple. The Volcano now replaces it in Season 8. A number of players say they have a deep nostalgia for Wailing Woods.

"Wailing Woods is one of the best spots because of the Mats you can get there. Unlimited Wood, Unlimited Brick( The rock pit in between Wailing and Tomato), and decent steel in the underground portal."

Top 2 - Greasy Grove

Greasy Grove is used to be a residential neighborhood with a Durrr Burger restaurant, gas station and outdoor store. At the start of Season 7, Greasy Grove was flooded by the waterfall in Viking Village and then frozen by the iceberg.

"Do you guys think Greasy Grove will come back? Greasy Grove was my favorite spot to drop. I know it's still there, and while it's fun sliding around, it's not the same. I'm really hoping once the snow melts we'll get our beloved Greasy back, and in the same state it was before season 7, but I'm not too sure."

Top 3 - Tomato Temple

Tomato Temple is an area located at the north of Dusty Divot and west of the Volcano. It incorporates a beneath ground ruin like section, and an above ground temple section. With the release of Season 8, Tomato Temple has now become an unnamed POI.

"Tomato Temple! Nice loot, great rotations and no hills around, so you don't need to worry about people shooting from above!"

Top 4 - The Motel

The motel was located the northeast of Pleasant Park and west of Lazy Links. It can be a rundown motel with an empty pool, a little shack, destroyed homes and an overturned truck. The motel now has been removed from the map plus the Block has now replaced it.

"Strongly prefer Motel since it usually has the perfect loot amount for two people, plus rifts to get to the next spot quickly since you don't usually run into other people up there."

Top 5 - lonely lodge

Lonely Lodge is the most eastern named location on the map. It is a sole lodge inside a forested area with flowing water, steep canyons, woodsheds and also a high watchtower which can be the tallest structure constructed out of destroyable material.

"I've always liked lonely lodge and haunted hills — isolated places with a surprising amount of loot. I seem to hate every newer location though. I never liked risky reels/the block, and I HATE paradise palms and lazy links."

Fortnite Players Are Full of Surprises and Doubts with New Banana Skin

Fortnite Season 8 brings some new skins, which have unlockable styles, more so than we've ever seen before. However, Peely as one of the new skins in season 8,  players seem to be full of surprises and puzzles about this banana person, of course, including me.

Fortnite Season 8 New Banana Skin

According to the official description, Peely is a banana that adjustments color as it ripens throughout a match. Unlocking Peely in Fortnite is no simple job. You will pay for the Season 8 Battle Pass then finish weekly in-game challenges to work your way by way of a 100-tier system. The walking, talking banana unlocks at tier 47, which means it could take a month or longer to obtain there - unless you're willing to pay further and skip ahead correct now.

Peely also introduces a new feature known as "Reactive" into the game, which refers to skins and even other cosmetic items that change throughout a single match. In this case, the banana will ripen and darken as every game progresses.

Fortnite players have some gameplay questions for Peely. On Reddit, one player raised the question that How to get a headshot on Peely, someone says aim at the eyes, and someone says to aim for the head, however, that is a good question, of which I do not have the answer to.

The thing that freaks me out about Peely is that his arms and legs are so muscular and it's not even a costume. What is with Season 8 and humanoid non-humans? But is there some magic going on? The hybrids being a part reptile (probably snake), and part human, the banana being part human, can't be coincidental. Any theories?

However, this hasn't stopped Fortnite fans from obsessing of Peely, if only sense of how drastically he stands out in comparison to the rest of your new skins. Some players even do not care about Peely's ability to ripen over time, they said:

"Also Peely is one of my new favorite skins. HES SUCH A CUTE BANANA, And the peanut butter jelly time emote him even better."

"I'm gonna go eat breakfast and then tryhard in fortnite so I can get the banana skin."

"Quitting Apex Legends to go back to Fortnite so I can be a dabbing banana full time."

In addition to Banana Skin, Epic also brings players other Battle Pass Skins like Blackheart, Hybrid, Sidewinder and more. For me, the only skin I genuinely like and appear forward to unlocking is Peely; I would want to play as a giant, soulless banana.

Fortnite Season 7 Gets Some Brand New Things

After a long waited time, the highly anticipated Fortnite Season 7 is finally here. Epic brought with a lot of new things in this new winter-themed season. Amongst the largest additions coming for the game with this new season's patch can be a new automobile, the X-4 Stormwing, an airplane that makes it possible for you to fly all about the map. This patch also comes with the brand new Fortnite Creative mode that will let players create on their very own private islands, building whatever they want and even generating new game modes.

Fortnite Season 7

This new season is also a major, map-changing update for the winter holidays. There are pretty a number of new cities added this time about which includes areas with names like Frosty Flights, Polar Peak and Content Hamlet. There's also an entirely new biome on the map known as Iceberg which can be in all probability about as cold, frozen and slippery as you would anticipate.

Refer to: https://www.u4gm.com/news/fortnite/fortnite-season-7-gets-planes-wraps--and-new-creative-mode-in-new-patch

With all these adjustments coming to the game we've got a summary of what's most significant beneath. Click here you can check out the new season's full patch. 

 NO.1 A Brand New Plane

There's now an airplane in Fortnite as a part of the season 7 additions. The plane is called the X-4 Stormwing and comes with five total seats, a single for the pilot and four passengers. The pilot can also fire the machine gun mounted in the front in the plane, which can overheat, and certainly, the plane can do barrel rolls. 

In case your piloting gets slightly as well fancy and issues go wrong, don't worry, you are able to usually jump out from the plane and your character will go straight to skydiving as they've just jumped off the Battle Bus. It remains to be observed just how a flying vehicle could affect the game, considering that it'll make the map really feel smaller sized and more accessible than ever and it's specific to adjust the way men and women play.

 NO.2 New Creative Mode

For months now, Fortnite fans have requested a mode that lets them make freely and now it's lastly right here with the Creative mode. This new building-focused mode is filled with ways for players to create, in the ability to copy most of the structures inside the game to even making custom game modes. You will discover even techniques for you to join friends' games so you'll be able to generate factors as a group. For now, there does not appear to become a method to share these creations with folks outdoors of the friend's list, but that is likely anything we can count on inside the future.

 NO.3 The List of Vaulted Items

Just about every season, Epic uses the very first patch to take a appear back at which items are working and which ones could use some time within the vault and away from the game for any tune-up. This time around you can find really a couple of fortnite save the world items going away.

  • Shadow Stones
  • Port-a-Fort
  • Chiller
  • Clinger
  • Double Barrel Shotgun
  • Shockwave Grenade

When all of these issues could be leaving the game, for now, that doesn't necessarily imply they'll be gone forever. Epic often takes these items back out of your vault after they've been improved upon in some significant approaches.

 NO.4 ICY New Additions for the Map Have Arrived

The map now has new locations like Frosty Flights, Polar Peak and Happy Hamlet, and they introduce an entirely new atmosphere to Fortnite: Iceberg. Just like the prime from the Viking Village location, these sections from the map are covered in snow, the new addition, nonetheless, is ice which acts like a Chiller trap and causes players to go sliding once they endeavor to cease. These areas also add in brand new zip lines which players can latch onto to promptly zip from one location of a mountain or town towards the subsequent.

 NO.5 Use Wraps to Transform What Your Weapons Look Like

Though character skins have always been an important part of the way Fortnite appears, up till seasons 7 all the gear inside the game looked exactly the exact same. But, that's all altering this season with the addition of Wraps - which presently only readily available through the Battle Pass. Wraps personalize whatever item you're making use of, so your version of it looks just a little far more one of a kind. Whether or not you have got it applied to shotguns, rifles or perhaps the new plane, whatever weapon or car you are using can now look a little more fascinating and reflect your own individual style.

Refer to: https://www.u4gm.com/news/fortnite/how-to-complete-fortnite-season-6-week-9-challenges-fast

   NO.1 Fortnite Season 6, Week 9 - Free Challenges Guide

1) Get 30 seconds of airtime in a vehicle

There's a couple of approaches to method this challenge. You can do it by ensuring to take jumps in all your cars over the course of the week or you could take it out in as small time as you possibly can. I recommend playing a group game mode like Food Fight, grabbing your vehicle of selection, then head to any on the corrupted locations. These purple volcanoes will launch you as well as your automobile higher inside the air and it shouldn't take as well lengthy to have 30 seconds of airtime.

2) Get a score of 10 or more on different carnival clown boards

This can be an entertaining alter from other challenges, nevertheless, it will not necessarily be simple. After you get started a game, balloons will inflate in various holes on the board and also you need to pop them promptly then move on towards the next in an work to have ten within a row. You'll need to do that at 3 separate places to complete the challenge. What may well make it specifically difficult is that other players can just pick you off though you stand there. I'd suggest playing Food Fight or a different 50 vs. 50 mode so you may have some safety whilst you play.

Here's exactly where each of the carnival clown board places are on the map:

Fortnite Carnival Clown Board Locations

3) Stage 1: Consume mushrooms

This challenge is usually a small simpler than final week's equivalent challenge of eating apples since you could only eat apples when you are already hurt. For this one particular, it does not truly matter which game mode you play provided that you are able to find mushrooms. I like the location about the residence east and just south of Pleasant Park (it's exactly where among the dance floors normally pops up). You can find usually tons of mushrooms around that location, but your mileage may perhaps differ.

   NO.2 Fortnite Season 6, Week 9 - Battle Pass Challenges Guide

1) Deal damage to players with a clinger, stink bomb or grenade

I am not wonderful with grenades, but I feel I have a fairly excellent solution for this challenge. Your ideal bet here should be to play Meals Fight or any other group game, then -- as the fighting gets intense at the end -- ensure to switch to whatever grenade weapon you may have offered and started out letting them rain down. Luckily, 300 is just not that higher of a number, so it should not take too extended to complete the challenge.

2) Deal damage to opponent structures with dynamite

The hardest part of this challenge will most likely be discovering the dynamite to start with, but after you have it, it needs to be fairly rapid. This challenge looks like it was produced for Food Fight mode, due to the fact it is the right way to tear down the enemies base to obtain at that mascot. Right after a few games, it ought to be simple to get 10,000 points of damage.

3) Rocket or grenade launcher eliminations

Like all of those, you will need to locate the weapons initially, but you'll desire to play a huge group game mode after once again to become one of the most efficient. When a bunch of men and women on the other team are clustered collectively around a structure, let shed using the heavy artillery. If you're lucky, with only three to complete the challenge, you could possibly do this in a single shot.

4) Stage 1: Deal damage with grenades to opponents

The first stage of this quest may also allow you to together with the dealing damage with grenade weapons challenge above so it really is working double duty. I nevertheless like group modes for these quests because it probably suggests additional opponents within a concentrated region. From there, stick to the directions for stage two.
