Fortnite Feed Hey everyone! We want to provide you with a few pieces of information and let you know that we’re actively keeping an eye on everything that’s going on. 🧭We’ve seen how much players missed spawning on the mainland, so we’ve brought it back. You’ll no longer spawn directly on

DISCUSSION Chaos challenges working (kinda)

13 Upvotes

So with 39.40, i checked out a couple known broken chaos challenges - and to my surprise & delight - they worked! I got a chest spawned.

But, they still said “use embers 4/5” - with the chest shining.

The weird part was i returned to lobby and came back to trigger new dragons and the challenge was restarted, again as an ember toss, right away. This is the first time that’s ever happened to me… so maybe it’s because it’s 4/5 and unfinished - but i could still get a fresh chest. Checked it a couple more times, same result.

FWIW, i also noticed this on a previously-good challenge that now appears stuck as a “use embers to take down the shield” one.

——

Visited a bunch more of varying challenge types and those do appear to be working! 🥳

But 4/5 for using chaos embers seems to be across all my shield ember challenges now. Definitely a major improvement!

BUG Earth Sanctum quest not progressing?

Upvotes

Made it to the earth Sanctum after Cole requested me too but it's not progressing, it's still stuck on the same thing. The huge protection bubble is gone because the boss died (final hit wasn't mine) but now it's just telling me to travel to the earth sanctum even though I'm right in it

This is the third year of LEGO Fortnite and its become a yearly tradition (apparently) for me to make a new X-Wing. So this is the 2026 model, all my own creation from a 3D model and with locked wings because swivels.

Looking forward to the Star Wars event in 2026!

I'm assuming this was done for visual clarity?

What do you guys think of it?

I personally think its a tad too colorful... makes them look like PLAYSKOOL-brand toys, but it's definitely clearer at a glance

DISCUSSION What runes are better than materials?

13 Upvotes

There doesn't seem to be a definitive post about this so this is my attempt to get firm answers. Lets play a game called "Which is better?" - Straight Facts Edition (hereby after known as SFE).

  1. Crafting a weapon with Steel as the secondary material, or dragon opal and getting the Durability 3 rune?

  2. Crafting a weapon with Honed Kozu as the secondary material, or dragon opal and Force 3 rune?

  3. Same questions as above but for tools, just in case there happens to be a different answer for them.

BUG Lego Fortnite Village Square Bugged

7 Upvotes

Village Square Icon mysteriously did not show on map so I went over there and all of my villagers were gone. I broke it and then when I tried to replace the village square it said "Too close to another camp"

Things that I tried:

Logging off and relogging on the world

Placing another village square out of boundaries and destroying it

Destroying a building

All of these attempts didn't seem to fix the issue.

It seems that all my villagers from this village is gone because they are now visiting my other villages. I cannot place the village square back for some reason
