Walls that have been built by players will now have a plank that you can use to propel yourself upward, helping both yourself and your teammates, but also anyone that is actively pursuing you.Tilted Towers, how we missed you so. This does however allow you to pick whichever objective you'd prefer to pursue, and not have to worry about other things. A t the beginning of each match, you will be given three Match Quests to pick from that will expire at the end of that match, making it more pressing for you to complete them. Only one squad will be able to use each Reboot Van at a time, and should one squad take over the reboot van with the timer halfway done, they can hijack that timer and reboot their own teammates much faster.īeginning with this Chapter, Match Quests replace Daily Quests. This change also includes rebooting players, making it a little more forgiving. If you are reviving a teammate and move out of range for one reason or another, the timer will now slowly go down instead of immediately resetting. As a caveat, you will no longer be able to cancel out once you begin restoring, so you'll still need to use them wisely! Medkits and Shield Potions now begin restoring health/shields immediately, and you can now move slowly while you're restoring as opposed to having to stay still. The FlowBerry will also provide you (and nearby teammates) with a temporary low-gravity effect while jumping and falling, with fall damage immunity for the duration of the effect. The FlowBerry is a new fruit debuting on the Island, which will recover part of your Shield as well as any nearby teammates.

The Cluster Clinger is an explosive you can throw that'll stick to a surface or player, and then pop out several smaller explosives after a short delay. The Grapple Blade is yet another part of your arsenal that you can find, letting you aim at a hard surface (or another player) and then grapple toward them! If you happen to grapple another player, you can attack with the Grapple Blade to deal substantial melee damage. You can also charge with the shield to knock back enemies and deal damage to them, which can be an excellent way of flushing hiding enemies out of safe spots.Ĭhapter 5 also introduces other weapons across various weapon types:

This shield has infinite health, though it'll automatically be dropped if it sustains too much damage. The Ballistic Shield includes a pistol which you can shoot whilst defending yourself with the shield at the same time. The Ballistic Shield is a new tool this Season that doubles as a weapon.
