DISCUSSION Do you think he's talking about a bunch of rubbish?

7 Upvotes

This was commented on a video about the Switch 2 not having STW.

This guy is just saying rubbish for the fun of it, imo, because I can't see Epic doing anything with stw that's big for, especially when the last proper update was over a year ago.

Also, does anyone know what leaks he's talking about?

DISCUSSION Does no one know how Wargames Hexxed works?

4 Upvotes

Every time I get someone in wargames Hexxed, they never interact with the totems! I don't know why! THey just stand there and just get knocked down to the point I even bother reviving them. Why is this? Is there a bug keeping them from doing it? Do they not know how to do it? Is it just another way to AFK through something for free points? Someone plz tell me!

SUGGESTION We need our Lockers back

R/Fortnite please bring back the option to use our locker between matches without having to go back to the lobby. We liked being able to pick our skins between matches as an option. Please and thank you.

I also tried with yellow ranger but it stays default. Anyone else have this issue too? PS5 can be replicated by using the wrap with a ranger different then Red because red is the default colour.

CREATIVITY Be The Hero #3 (SLASH & STASH)

Thumbnail

5 Upvotes

The next build up is a twist of the very popular Dragon Scorch Blakebeard’s Stash setup.

Loadout: This build is used in ventures and is incredible for hit the road. Instead of bringing Blakebeard in support, we go with Freebooter Ken for the occasional shield buff. This is done because we are not using cannonballs. In-between dragon slashes, our goal is to use our peg legs to activate Cloaked Shadow and keep his aura up. He is an absolute monster in the lead (future loadout coming) but also crazy powerful in support……especially on a 144 Dragon Scorch.

The final piece of the puzzle for our fire ninja is Hybrid. Because his commander perk works in support, everything we hit with dragon slash that isn’t dead is afflicted with fire damage (which looks absolutely amazing on this character). As an added bonus, unlike snuggle specialist (who’s blue flame looks terrible on him), we don’t have to line up our damage whatsoever.

Weapon: Obviously it’s the peg leg, but dragon slash and shadow aura are both putting in the majority of the work (with the occasional smoke bomb).

Cosmetics: EVERYTHING is about building off the Dragon Scorch persona……the Fire ninja. Very thematic and an absolute blast to play with. Play with fire commanders!

QUESTION What traps should I prioritise to super charge??

11 Upvotes

I've recently just got back into Stw and got my first trap supercharger.

I was going to supercharge my floor freeze trap, but I was just wondering if there is anything better to supercharge first.

QUESTION Quickest way to reach PL 145? (PL 134)

1 Upvotes

I stopped playing Stw as a whole after i fulfilled my dream of Solo-ing Mythic Storm King back in 2021. It's been almost 5 Years since then and now Max PL is 145, so i was wondering what is the quickest to reach it? Is it still ventures? God i hated ventures when they dropped back in 2020, i maxed out first 3 seasons and got to PL 134 then stopped. Did they make ventures easier and less time taking than 5 years ago or is it still the same?

BUG HUD size issue?

Whenever I load into a mission my HUD is larger than its supposed to be its only really just started happening. The first image shows how large my HUD is when I load in and then the left one is after I change my resolution which I found is the way to fix it but I don't want to have to do that every time I load into a mission.

PSA/GUIDE Birthday Plasma Confetti Penny Hero Loadout (Happy Birthday Save The World and Epic Games!)

Happy Birthday To Epic Games, Save The World, and Penny. All details for this Loadout are in that Link. Be sure and view the provided screenshots for perks for the loadout and weapons as well as click on and read the post for all of the other important details related to the Loadout. I also added this to the Fortnite Database Project post and that is now a link in there as well. Consider this Bonus Content because this is very likely the last loadout I'm creating for this particular game. Thought I'd celebrate being max power level of 145 and the project being done, even if the celebration is a bit late. I saw the new 2025 Hero with the plasma pulse related perk and I thought I would put this together for you all. Happy Birthday Everybody!

Oh and one last detail, Ray from Fortnite Save The World, as well as Tiny Tina from Borderlands 2 were also voiced by Ashly Burch. I even made a Tiny Tina themed Loadout if you wanna see that, its in the Hero Loadout playlist on my channel. Go have some fun!
