Many "Fortnite Battle Royale" players use the strategy called "turtling," to survive and win games. Unfortunately, this strategy is quite common in both casual and competitive play, and Epic Games will most likely have to change something about it. However, players have found an easy way to counter turtling in the latest patch, which makes it much harder to survive while being boxed in a small base. The latest patch is also bringing unique game tournaments to the game.
The v6.30 patch for "Fortnite" was released on November 14 and the video game developer has added many new things to the game.
Both Save the World and Battle Royale modes have been affected by the latest changes, and once again, players have received a new item and several balance changes. The counter-turtling was just discovered before the patch, but the game creator hasn't done anything about it and it will probably stay in the game for at least a few more days.
Destroying bases instantly in Fortnite
Reddit user ImSpeedyGonzalez is well known for his useful tips and tricks for "Fortnite Battle Royale." This user has posted numerous videos which have helped many players improve their skills and beat their opponents. The "Fortnite" player has shared the simple trick that players can use to instantly destroy bases.
Explosive weapons are amazing in "Fortnite Battle Royale," and some players find it difficult to counter them.
While turtling was an effective strategy against explosives and any other weapon, it can be countered easily with this trick.
When turtling, almost all players put a ceiling with a pyramid on top of it. By using these two pieces, players gain an additional layer of protection against their enemies. However, enemies can use pyramids to destroy structures easily and to protect themselves from explosive damage.
To do this, all you need to do is to be on one side of the pyramid and shoot any other side with a rocket launcher. You will take no damage from the rocket, yet this trick will completely destroy your enemy's base.
The trick is very simple and requires no practice. However, make sure you watch the guide on the user's Reddit profile to see how exactly it's done.
Incoming fix?
Epic Games may decide to nerf explosive damage while using this trick. Considering that it gives a massive advantage to the attacker, the game developer could either nerf the damage or buff building health. At the moment, this method is most effective for taking turtles down and eliminating them.
