Some of these sure are helpful while playing and some are just made up. These myths include glitches, bugs, hidden secrets, and more. So, let’s just get on with the list.

40. Riding a bike up a wall

In the build mode, there is an end number of possibilities. You can use it to execute many tricks and stunts. But can you associate your vehicles with these builds? The answer is yes. You can take a motorcycle and ride it up a vertical wall if you are fast enough to build it.

39. Supply drops and the Falcon

The Falcon is the latest equipment that was recently introduced in the January updates. The equipment is very helpful and assists players in their matches. On the other hand, supply drops grant you amazing rewards. And the myth that you can loot supply drops with Falcon is actually true.

38. Rocket riding a bull

Rocket riding is a fun feature that players tend to use. But the problem that this has is the fall damage. But there is a possibility to avoid it. Players can get on top of a bull and rocket ride the bull. The bull would take the fall damage and players will have full HP.

37. Guardian shield and reviving

Yet another awesome addition to the metaverse was the Guardian shield. This equipment is truly powerful, especially in no-build mode. And you can even revive your teammates while using the shield. This gives players the needed cover while the teammates recoup.

So you can revive knocked-down enemies while the Guardian shield is live. The shield also has an added facility. That is, you can even reboot and call back your teammates from the van, while still having the shield up.

35. Three-man riding a bike

A helpful addition that came into the game in this chapter is the dirt bikes. They are fast and you do can insane stunts with them. But, imagine if you are in a party of three and only have a bike as a vehicle. So can this vehicle carry three people? Unfortunately no. It cannot.

34. Dodge Excalibur explosion

Earlier in the game, there was method players used for dodging the Clinger. If you time an emote at the perfect time, the clinger would actually fall down from the body. And interestingly this can be done with the Excalibur rifle as well. So, players won’t be damaged by the explosion that the gun causes. Make sure you key bind the emote command.

33. Snowball kills

Snowball came with the new snowy areas on the map. We can create snowballs and throw them here and there. And it sure is lethal! Players can knock or even kill other players with this in the game.

32. Soaring sprint and big leaps

The launch pads are some interesting tools in the game. Earlier players used to find innovative methods to jump pretty high with this tool. But can the new soaring sprint help in jumping higher on these launch pads? No, the myth is not true.

31. Can you pickaxe a driver

There has been the myth going around that you can actually pickaxe the driver of a vehicle in the game. And it is proven to be true. For doing this players have to just press the pickaxe swing as they enter the passenger seat. This would make the character continuously attack the driver with the pickaxe.

30. Vehicle inside a bush

The new bush bombs offer this feature. You can throw them onto any vehicle and it gets covered with grass. But, you can even try to hide vehicles inside in-game bushes. Just switch seats before entering the bush and it won’t burst off.

29. One hit slap berries

The slap berries give players a stamina boost. They are spread across the map, And players can just take out a bunch of slap berries with a single knock with the Shockwave hammer.

28. Are the Seven still in the game?

One of the most interesting character factions in the game was the seven. But in chapter four there has been no indication of them. But, if players look carefully at the Maven shotgun and the Twin Mag SMG, they have similar skins to the weapons used by the seven. We might get to see their return.

27. First assault augment and shield glitch

The augments were a new addition to the game that was brought in Chapter 4. The first assault augment had a glitch where extra damage was given to shields even after the first bullet. Though this glitch was present, Epic Games removed it through recent patches.

26. Campfire and snowball

The snowball as mentioned earlier is a fun new feature in the game. But interestingly there has been a myth that these melt out near a campfire. But, unfortunately, the myth was false.

25. Levitate the Kinetic ore

Players found a way through which they could levitate the cars in the game with the shockwave hammer. And some even claimed the same can be done to Kinetic ores. But this is false. You can launch yourself up in the air on it though.

24. Can Excalibur break the distance render barrier?

There was a time when people shot others down from across a long distance. But the bullets of the sniper just went down after 300 meters. Now a new myth suggests that Excalibur is an exception. And it is true. The gun can break the distance render barrier.

23. Performance rendering glitch

There is a rumor that player markings get disappeared in the performance rendering mode while capturing a POI. Unfortunately, this rumor is right. So be careful when using the feature.

22. Slide-cancel water run

There was a glitch in the game where people slide and cancel to make the character break and even multiply their resources. Furthermore, there were reports that players used this glitch to walk/sprint over water. But it seems like Epic Games has patched this glitch up.

21. Flopper ride

Rocket riding is one of the biggest entertaining activities players do in the game. But can you ride the flopper? The answer is yes, you can ride a flopper.

20. Slap juice- different amounts

Slap juice is a recent addition to the game. But did you know that each type of slap juice provides different amounts of sprint time? The slap berries give 20 secs of infinite sprints, the container gives 30 secs and the bottle gives 40 secs.

19. Can you turn a normal flopper into a spicy one?

Unfortunately, you cannot. Even if you throw in those spicy chili chugs onto these floppers.

18. Soaring sprint without jumping

There is a myth going around that you can actually use the soaring sprint ability without jumping. It seems like this is actually possible. Players need to crouch up to an object and start sprinting. Then hitting the jump button activates this myth. This surely will be helpful during the matches.

17. Mantle up 2 stories

A myth has been going around that you can mantle up to two stories. And it seems like this is possible. For this players will have to edit a window to the second floor and edit and reset at the same time to do this. With practice, players can ace this difficult trick.

16. Charge Kinetic ore from one another

Kinetic ore is an underused item in the game. Players can charge one kinetic ore with another one. And that too it can charge within seconds.

15. Domino effect-Kinetic ore

Can people make a domino charge with the Kinetic ore? From the previous myth, it is known that one kinetic ore can charge another ore to its max. And the domino effect surely can be achieved, but it won’t be exactly as you imagine it to be.

The players when respawned from the reboot van actually pop out from the sky. And if players manage to build up to a certain distance, they can catch the respawned players.

13. Footsteps and Guardian shield

There was a glitch where footstep audio was not heard when players equipped the guardian shield. But seems like Epic Games fixed this up.

12. Zelda in Fortnite?

If you go into the Brutal Bastion and find the secret room within it, you will find something interesting. The secret room has a map, and sort of paper on the table, which looks like the Zelda title. It is not sure whether it is an easter egg for a future collaboration.

11. Stack pad glitch

Earlier in the previous chapter, players found out this cool way to launch cars into the air by stacking the Crash Pads. But it seems like you no longer can use this glitch in the game.

10. Bush warrior perk and car

The bush warrior perk was the latest augment that was released in the game. And its passive seems to be very useful in healing players. But, can it repair cars? Unfortunately, this perk works only for the player’s character.

9. Ice lake noises

There is a vast ice lake in the game. There have been a lot of rumors surrounding it. If you listen closely there is a particular sound emitting from inside the lake. It may be something that is coming up in the future.

8. Mystique and Ageless

The Mystique skin in the game was considered to be one of the biggest pay-to-win skins in the game until Epic nerfed it. But if players manage to kill the ageless with the Mystique skin, they can transform into him in this chapter.

7. Falcon Scout and knocked down players

In the trailer, we got to see that the Falcon Scout can carry our knocked teammates. But, there is yet another interesting feature to this. It can even carry the knocked enemies. This would be fun to use.

6. First-person view

Though the game is a TPP shooter, there is a glitch that players can use to drive trucks in first-person view. If players drive trucks with cargo, they can momentarily drive in FPP. But as soon as the cargo is removed, it goes back to the TPP mode.

5. Zero Chance Perk
