Remain shrouded from a single shadow bomb for 10 seconds

These look smoke grenades, seems fitting. These also can be found lying around and in chests, they last for around 6 seconds so for them to last 10 seconds you need to take an extra step.

  • Find a large hill or mountain side, the ones you can’t just walk up
  • Climb to the top
  • Activate Shadow bomb
  • If a large hill you can try sliding down in while a Shadow
  • If Hill is not large enough, try jumping while attempting to climb back up the hill
  • Keep jumping even if you hear the countdown noise finish

This may take few try’s

Use a Shield Bubble in 4 different matches

Another new item, Shield Bubble. This is great when you’re healing up and out in the open. You cant shoot out or into the shield bubble. However, other players can just walk into the bubble, so it only stops projectiles. Use this 4 times in 4 different matches, you don’t even need to use in a real situation, if you find one just activate it.

Fortnite Crown Solo Victory Royale

My First Fortnite Solo Crown Victory Royale (PC)

, ,

My First Fortnite Solo Crown Victory Royale, after 3days 7Hours and 34Mins of play time by achieving 12 eliminations (most of the eliminations where with a green DMR) I finally defeating SamJam777 who came second.

I am starting to pick up some new strategies to defeat other players as well as refining some old ones, but still lack those twitch reflexes from my younger days of playing Battle Royal games.

I’m still in the process of adding more content for Fortnite and have started with the basics about using the Fortnite default Keybinds and then modifying it  slightly it to match your play style.

What is the Victory Crown in Fortnite?

In Fortnite Season 3, winning the victory crown got slightly harder to achieve and so has become a little more rare.

The Victory Crown is now awarded by winning a Battle Royal Match by becoming the last person standing.  It not only signifies you have won the last Battle Royal you were in but also gives the player an XP boost for eliminating opponents, completing quests/tasks and surviving the storm.

When you start a new game and you are waiting on the holding island other players will see the glow around your character and so know you have a crown. Watch out as other players will want your crown and could look out for you jumping off the bus. I normlay keep out of sight so other player are not looking for my skin when i jump from the battle bus.

How do you know if a player has a Victory Crown in Fortnite?

If you are eliminated from the match and you drop your crown or a player drops their crown on purpose (to give to another player) it will flash on the local area map and show up in the Elimination Feed as a message. Your player’s name will also be highlighted in the message feed as a animated golden colour showing you have the crown. Watch out players will want to track you down for your crown.

When the following events happen, your character will gain a golden shooting star or sun rays affect around the crown, like in the picture below in the top left.

  • Storm Circle shrinks
  • You pick up the Crown
  • When you eliminate a player

When the crown is dropped, it also shows on the local map (150m range)

How do you Obtain a Victory Crown in Fortnite?

The Victory crown is just that, it’s a Crown awarded to a player for winning a Battle.  You can also pick crowns up from other players that have won them in previous matches and then been eliminated in your game. When eliminated from the game your player drops their crown, it is displayed on the map and in the elimination channel but won’t last for long as it de-spawns.

How do you Obtain a Crowning Achievement in Fortnite?

You need to win or pick up a crown and keep hold of it, and then win the battle to get the Crown Victory Royal and receive the Crowning Achievement emote, shown in my picture below. The emote shows off your Crowning Achievement, where your crown is placed on a red cushion and your wins are counted up.

The daily set of quests are rotated for a different set of daily quests every week but you can only have 3 daily quests at any one time. There is no limit to the number of daily quests you can complete, they will just keep coming.

What are the Fortnite Daily Quests?

There are plenty of combat daily quests such as “Get Headshots with a DMR  0/5” Most of these combat quests are easily completed during general play so I will focus on just the more detailed quests where you need to travel to a certain location to collect or interact with an item.

What are the Fortnite Weekly Quests?

Weekly Quests are a little more involved where you may be required to do 1 or 2 tasks to complete a single quest. Quests could also require you to visit multiple locations in a single match or even a series of actions like, Bounce on a Crash Pad, a Bouncy Slurpshrrom, and Off-road tires on a single match.

Just like the daily’s, you are asked to complete tasks, some harder than others. Here I will cover the trickier tasks or ones that requires you to travel to a location to complete an action or collect an item. Tasks such as “Drive on asphalt for 1000m” should be obvious.

Will buying V-Bucks Help me level Up?

There is no direct way to buy V-Bucks and then gain levels instantly. However, you can buy V-bucks and then purchase the Battle Pass that will give you a bonus 25 levels, so I guess you can call these buying levels with V-Bucks. Check the In-game Item Shop for deals they may do from time to time on booster packs.

For me, playing Fortnite and earning those levels is better reward than paying for them with V-Bucks.

My First Fortnite Trio Victory Royale (PC)

, ,

My 1st Trio Victory Royale in Fortnite and to be honest was a bit of a shocker as we started off as a complete shamble.  I teamed up with both of my sons and as you can image everyone wanted to be team leader and give the orders.  But after a few loses we decided over a hot chocolate and a snack that it would be best if we all took turns being team leader. So we decided that youngest would go first with me going last, not sure if that’s fair but it stopped the arguments.

Team work is even more essential than playing in Duo Victory Royale games, if you separate from your team mates and then encounter another team, unless your some Elite Fortnite cracked player then you’re going to get eliminated. Keeping together and working close is key to trios’ games and will see you win time and time again.

Try and pre-match decide on who will carry what items, there is no point in everyone caring 2x chug cans when one player can carry 6x chug cans and use when the team are close together. Also, decide on what style of weapons works well for each player so you can swap weapons so the sniper of the team gets the higher-grade sniper the team has.

Tactics are a little different than getting a Fortnite Solo Victory Royale so make sure you dont run off in pursuit of another player low on health or a legendary item you see in the distance. Let your team mates know what you have seen and move together, wait for a response from them appose to just running off and they loose you.

How to get a Trio Victory Royale in Fortnite

Now you moving into serious territory as some of the teams you will face have either been playing for some time or have some great tactics. If they have both you’re in for a tough battle.

To get a Trio Victory Royale we normally play in a triangle formation with one of my boys taking point This way he calls the opposition player he sees first and then the other 2 will engage that player, the idea is 3 on 1 will take them down faster, then we move to the 2nd and 3rd players with the team leader calling the opposition that we should attack by the skin description the player is using.  IE All on Indiana Jones   This does cause complications if the opposing team is wearing all the same skin!

Have a base set of rule and tactics for common situations, like when a plyer is knocked, someone helps them up while the 3rd player keeps watch and provide cover fire.

I am going to cover some more information to help you get more Trio Victory Royale’s in Fortnite with information covering:

My First Fortnite Duo Victory Royale (PC)

, ,

My First Duo Victory Royale in Fortnite, and what made this win even sweeter was that I was playing duo’s with my youngest son who was playing on my Xbox 360 Account, hence we have the same player name. When he gets a bit older ill set him up on his own account.

Team work is essential when playing Battle Royal games and Fortnite is no exception. Always talk to each other and let the other player know what you are doing, even if it’s stopping to pick up a med kit or chug down a shield pot. If you split up in a duo’s game and come in contact with another team then it rarely ends well for you, and your team mate will soon meet the same fate while trying to get your reboot card.

This was not our first Fortnite Duo match and I am sure it won’t be the last as they are a lot of fun, but they do require good tactics, communication and a cool head. Getting over excited or blaming your team mate for a loss is no way to play and is certainly no fun for anyone. If the situation starts to get a little heated then it’s time for a break, take 15mins and grab a drink and a snack.

How to get a Duo Victory Royale in Fortnite

Once you have the basics covered and you start getting some Fortnite Solo Victory Royale wins, you can team up with a friend and start to face the area together. Duo Royale’s are a huge amount of fun as you get to laugh and cry together. If you have 2 other friends that play you can even try Trio Victory Royale

Just like playing solo there is no easy way or quick way to win at Fortnite. Like any sport it takes practice practice and a little more practice as there is always someone better than you around the corner. As long as you’re having fun then keep on practicing.

Learn the strengths and weakness of the player you are playing with; my son always takes point as he is younger and faster than I am so I hang back slightly and play the mid to long range sniper game. Works well for us but may not work for everyone.

You and your team mate should always decide on general situation tactics before games so there is no need for in-game discussion around what to do.  make a plan on what to do if one of you is knocked down, do you get them up first or heal yourself?

I am going to create some more in-depth guides on how to play Fortnite as I learn more about the game and discover more of its secretes. Subject will cover:
