"Fortnite Battle Royale" is arguably the most popular video game at the moment and it has attracted over 40 million players since September 2017. Epic Games, the game developer, has worked hard to keep players updated with fresh content, and it has paid off so far. Even though so many players play "Fortnite Battle Royale", many of them don't know these eight things you can do in the game.
#1 - Slide down a hill without losing health
When you decide to go down a hill, you have two options: put down building pieces stuck to the hill or slide down. If you are sliding down, make sure you counter strafe to avoid losing any health.
If you move in the same direction your character is sliding, you will most likely lose health and even die. However, if you move in the opposite direction, you will be able to land safely while retaining your health.
#2 - Change your daily challenge
It is possible to change one daily challenge every day. All you need to do is to open Inspect Challenges page and abandon the challenge you don't like. The abandoned challenge will be replaced by a new one, and if you get lucky, you will get the challenge you like!
#3 - Ride a supply drop balloon
Ground advantage is essential in "Fortnite Battle Royale" and you can gain it by riding a supply drop balloon! If you can use a launch pad or build to a balloon, you will be able to land on it and surprise the enemy who's waiting for it.
#4 - See your enemies through walls
Wallhacking in "Fortnite Battle Royale" is somewhat considered fair as you are able to make the walls you build transparent. All you need to do is to go into the edit mode, deselect blue squares, and you will be able to see clearly through the wall. This works on any building piece, including roofs and ramps.
#5 - Use fire hydrant to your advantage
Fire hydrants can be found all over the island, especially in towns. If you shoot at a fire hydrant or hit it with your pickaxe, it will burst out water, allowing you to jump on it and propel yourself in the air. If you do this correctly while in a fight, you will be able to get away from your enemies and even flank them!
#6 - Surprise your enemies with a pyramid trick
One of the best ways to surprise your enemies is to trap yourself in a pyramid. Once you are inside of it, you can edit it and make it transparent so you are able to see everything that's happening around you. If you see an enemy, select two squares of the pyramid, either in front or the bad, and confirm the edit. This will turn your pyramid into a ramp, allowing you to get out of it and score an easy kill on your enemy.
#7 - Reach ground faster
Your gliders and umbrellas will automatically open at certain height above the ground, but they won't open if you are diving above the ocean! To use this trick to your advantage, jump out of the bus immediately and dive down the ocean.
You will be able to open your glider or an umbrella whenever you want, but make sure you don't do it too late!
#8 - Take enemies down with burst rifles
Many "Fortnite Battle Royale" players avoid burst rifles and take automatic assault rifles over them, but they don't know that burst rifles can be lethal in right hands. While burst rifles take around half a second longer to reload, their headshot damage multiplier is 2.5, unlike 2.0 for regular assault rifles. For example, common burst rifle does 67 headshot damage per bullet, which means that if you hit all three shots, you can take your enemy down in one burst.
