| 0s | What’s up, Fortnite Fam! |
|---|---|
| 1s | You may have already noticed, |
| 3s | but the island has gotten a little more wild |
| 5s | in the C4S3 update. |
| 7s | Here to help me traverse the jungle and break down all of the changes |
| 11s | is the one and only Tocata. |
| 14s | Thanks, Kelly. Let’s start off with exploring the wilderness of |
| 17s | the new jungle biome that has taken over |
| 19s | the center of the map. |
| 20s | With natural mobility, endemic life, and even mud, |
| 23s | three new POI’s will be joining this untamed landscape. |
| 27s | If decaying cities and secret rooms spark your interest, |
| 30s | check out Rumble Ruins. |
| 31s | I hope you’re feeling worthy, though, because to reap the rewards |
| 34s | from the new vault here, you’ll need to sacrifice an item from your loadout |
| 38s | that’s worthy enough to pass. |
| 41s | You’re getting tired after making a long rotate? |
| 43s | No worries, cool down in the river at Creeky Compound. |
| 46s | Surrounded by metal structures, it’s the perfect location |
| 49s | for maxing out on scarce materials. |
| 52s | And finally, Shady Stilts. |
| 54s | A mountainous village with a lot of concentrated loot. |
| 57s | A perfect location to get geared up quickly. |
| 60s | The whole biome has constant changes in elevation, |
| 63s | from the forest canopy in the sky to the creeks along the jungle floor. |
| 68s | Want to amp up your rotations? Well, now you can. |
| 71s | Build your momentum with the new Grind Vines, |
| 73s | which you can use to ride through the foliage. |
| 76s | But it’s not all leaves and bushes. |
| 78s | There are four new types of plants, each with unique properties. |
| 82s | Bomb Flowers that you can launch at structures or opponents that explode. |
| 86s | Slurp Plants, which provide health and shield. |
| 89s | Hop Flowers that you can utilize to take high ground from your opponents. |
| 92s | And if you’re feeling a bit gassy, there’s a Stink Flower that will |
| 95s | stink up an area, damaging opponents per second. |
| 99s | In addition to new plant life, prehistoric predators have also found |
| 103s | a new home on the island. |
| 104s | Be careful of the Raptors, as they can be aggressive. |
| 107s | Although, if you are fortunate enough to turn one into your friend, |
| 110s | then you can use the Primal Companion augment to regenerate health and |
| 114s | get thermal vision while riding. |
| 117s | Normally, you want to avoid slipping in the mud, |
| 119s | but this time it might be worth the fall. |
| 122s | The mud in the jungle biome comes with some unique properties, |
| 125s | which protect you from the new thermal tech. |
| 127s | Speaking of new thermal tech, the Thermal DMR allows you |
| 131s | to spot hard-to-see enemies by detecting infrared energy. |
| 135s | Although this may be the hot new gun, you need to stay cautious. |
| 138s | Heat signals wont be picked up by opponents masking themselves |
| 142s | with the aforementioned mud. |
| 144s | There’s a lot of buzz about the WildWasp Jar. |
| 147s | This item spawns an angry swarm of wasps applying small tick damage |
| 151s | to builds as well as anyone, |
| 153s | and I mean anyone, who dares to enter its range. |
| 157s | They say breakfast is the best way to start your day, |
| 160s | so why not try out the Flapjack Rifle? |
| 162s | This high-capacity assault rifle with heavy structure damage |
| 166s | is the perfect addition to any balanced loadout. |
| 169s | For those of you with attachment issues, |
| 171s | the Kinetic Boomerang might be the weapon for you. |
| 173s | Fling towards your foes or bounce off of walls, |
| 176s | and with a left-click you detonate a close range blast. |
| 179s | Or with a simple right-click, this aerodynamic tool will always come back, |
| 183s | right by your side. |
| 185s | A few weapons are making the return, such as the Drum Shotgun, |
| 188s | With its high fire rate, large magazine size, and high DPS, |
| 192s | this is a must-have in close-range combat. |
| 196s | The Combat SMG will also be making its was back to the loot pool. |
| 200s | On a final note about weapons, the coveted Pulse Rifle will no longer |
| 204s | spawn at Rift Island. |
| 206s | Instead, capturing the island will reward you |
| 209s | with a devastating enhanced Drum Shotgun. |
| 212s | No loadout is complete without your favorite augments. |
| 215s | And with a new update, means new opportunities. |
| 218s | Swift Shotgun Reload will be perfect for close-range combat, |
| 221s | allowing a faster reload time for shotguns. |
| 224s | If you’re looking to bug your opponents, |
| 226s | then think of selecting the WildWasp Weaponry augment, |
| 229s | which will spawn a few WildWasp Jars. |
| 231s | There are plenty more new augments being added to the update, |
| 234s | as well as some old ones returning. |
| 236s | For a full list of augments, check out the most recent blog post. |
| 240s | Being able to use these new weapons and augments effectively |
| 243s | will be crucial to dominating your ranked matches. |
| 246s | And now that you’ve had some time to practice against similarly skilled players, |
| 250s | it’s your moment to showcase what you’ve got in official tournaments. |
| 253s | While you check out the most recent blog post, make sure to orient yourself |
| 257s | on what rank you’ll need in order to compete |
| 259s | in the various tournaments and events throughout the season. |
| 262s | Different events might have different requirements, |
| 264s | so let the grind begin! |
| 267s | This season is jam-packed with some wild changes. |
| 269s | A ferocious jungle biome, tons of unique weapons, |
| 272s | and even new competitive opportunities. |
| 274s | The only question remaining is ... |
| 276s | Are you ready to board the Battle Bus? |
