“According to Fortnite players, having this specific item is crucial in order to have a fighting chance at achieving a Victory Royale in Chapter 5 Season 4.”
While Fortnite players may have bid farewell to the vehicle meta, Chapter 5 Season 4 has introduced a new, powerful one. This can be attributed to the addition of fresh weapons and items in the Battle Royale.
Despite already making adjustments to the loot pool in order to achieve balance, the decrease in spawn rates for certain items and weapons may make it more challenging to secure a Victory Royale. This is particularly evident when players are competing for limited resources in the final circle without having access to the most advantageous loadout.
According to players on a Reddit discussion, the key to survival in Chapter 5, Season 4 is a specific item: the War Machine’s Hover Jets. One user even claims that these jets are the “essential”item needed to reach the endgame.
Fortnite’s War Machine’s Hover Jets is a top-tier mobility item in Chapter 5 Season 4.
They stated that having a jetpack along with a green spray weapon and shotgun would give you a fighting chance.
Despite War Machine’s Hover Jets being one of the items that was nerfed, many other players still consider it to be a viable option.
“Last night, I lost to someone because I lacked a jetpack. While I usually have no problem acknowledging when someone is more skilled than me, it became clear when this person was able to take down real players using the same gear. It’s just frustrating when they have the advantage of height and can swiftly switch between shotgunning and evading.”
One person added, “Without a jetpack, you’re completely screwed.”
In addition, a user noted that although the jetpack is essential, it can also be a hindrance as it requires precise aiming while in use.
However, this quality is also what makes it highly effective when paired with Captain America’s shield. This allows you to swiftly dash and hurl the shield towards your opponent’s vicinity.
