Overview[]

The Storm is a Gameplay Mechanic in Fortnite: Save the World which functions similary to its Battle Royale counterpart. Additionally, it can also spawn Monsters and create random incursion points for enemies during a Mission.

Spawn Locations[]

• Siege: During Missions with siege/defense phases, Husks spawn and approach from Storm Vortexes around the objective. Players can plan trap configurations by analyzing which way the Husks are likely to approach from based on these vortexes. As players progress through higher Power Level missions, they may be warned that the Storm can change directions during the siege.
• Mini Event: Side missions will appear around the map that can summon the Storm, for example a Survivor being attacked, activated Encampments, Drone Crashes, BluGlo Siphons, Storm Chests, etc.
• Patrol Doors: Periodically, storm vortexes will appear and spawn husks even when an objective is not being defended — this is called a Patrol Spawn. If undisturbed, Husk Patrols will often simply walk back into another vortex and disappear harmlessly. A mini-Storm will hover above a patrol door to better indicate its presence.

Storm Wall[]

Inside the Storm Wall, purple haze and darkened lighting darkens and obscures the player's vision. This indirectly endangers players by not letting them see the battlefield clearly and perhaps causing them to make errors in judgement.

Storm Circle[]

During the following missions, there is a Storm circle mechanic similar to Battle Royale:

• Resupply
• Eliminate and Collect
• Retrieve the Data
• Hunt the Titan
• Frostnite
• Hit the Road
• Survive the Horde

The Storm circle slowly shrinks as the mission progresses. When in the Storm, players take Shield damage first before Health.

The Storm is present during the fight against the Mythic Storm King, and actively shrinks when there is a Mini-Boss. If players fail to defeat the Mini-Boss for too long, it will shrink to the smallest size, most likely leading to a defeat. If players fail to destroy the horn, the Storm circle instantly shrinks to the smallest size.

Shadow Orbs[]

Shadow Orbs are side-quests usually found in caves. The objective is to kill a Mist Monster that spawns from the orb to get a reward.
