Technical Manual: Fire of the Dragon

The video is a demonstration of one of the anomalies with Hybrid's perk Fire of the Dragon. It shows how this perk doesn't extend the duration of the affliction applied by Madcap's T.E.D.D.Y. Spores.

I had started a guide to cover the many anomalies and tooltip faults in STW, but it proved to be far too much to cram into a single document. So, with the release of, at the time of posting, the new hero Madcap and the claims that Fire of the Dragon couples well with him, I thought I'd break at least one section of my compiled data into a guide concerning this particular perk.

FIRE OF THE DRAGON

As listed, Hybrid's Fire of the Dragon support perk "Increases Affliction Duration by 34%." Now, this is an accurate statement when speaking of affliction applied by weapon damage, but it gets a bit hit & miss with everything else.

It does not increase the affliction duration of traps, namely Flame Grills, nor does it always work with ability perks that apply affliction, but it does work with all perks that apply affliction to weapon damage. Perhaps the easiest way to cover what it does and does not work with is to list them all, so here it goes.

Carbide's Zip and Zap/+: Ability type - Although the affliction damage of this is miserably low, yes, it adds one extra tick.

Madcap's T.E.D.D.Y. Spores/+: Ability type - As seen in the video, no, it does not add extra ticks.

Kurohomura's Seismic Stun+: Ability type - Yes, it adds one extra tick.

Deadly Blade Crash's Corrosive Strikes/+: Weapon type - Yes, it adds one extra tick.

Deadly Lotus Luna's Poking Holes+: Weapon type - Yes, it adds one extra tick.

Deadly Star Scorpion's Corrosive Stars/+: Ability type - Although this is laughably low affliction damage, yes, it adds two extra ticks. (Note: Corrosive Stars is currently doing physical damage and not energy as it's supposed to).

Wild Fragment Deadeye's Static Cling/+: Ability type - No, it does not add extra ticks. As a result, combining Static Cling with Azelea Clark's special Shock Tower doesn't produce extra ticks either.

Subzero Zenith's Icy Shot/+: Weapon type - Yes, it adds one extra tick.

Hybrid's Fire of the Dragon+: Ability type - Yes, strangely enough, it adds two extra ticks to what would be 3 seconds, or three ticks of fire affliction otherwise.

Now, how many of these are bugs and how many are intentional, who knows 🤷

As editorial, I don't believe Fire of the Dragon is a very strong support perk to slot in the cases where it actually works with abilities or perks. There's much better things to fill your perk real estate with.

Anyway, that's what I have on Fire of the Dragon. Hopefully this is helpful to you as a player when considering loadouts.

Thank you.

A newly-viable constructor loadout for Blasted Badlands venture season

Whole Lotta ROSIE

This time last year Warden Kyle was still limited to very weak healing while on BASE, but in the intervening months he got a serious buff. Not only is his healing much better, but he's now also an energy regen hero.

That energy regeneration, combined with the low cooldown modifier and Happy Holidays, is enough to keep ROSIE available for constant use during a defence.

BASE Kyle and Power BASE Knox do their jobs as usual, Warden keeps the energy coming, and the three ROSIE supports make it a viable ability to use right up to 140s.

If you hold the trigger down, downtime is about 6 seconds. If you actually aim and use bursts, ROSIE is constant.

Get the best performance by killing some trash with the first few shots to get Krampus's stacking damage perk ramped up, then put bursts into harder targets.

Looking to flux a schematic with a certain sixth perk? Use this simple trick to save your legendary flux

Lots of weapons in the collection book come with a set sixth perk, so every time you flux a copy, it will have the same sixth perk.

Others, however, don't - they can have a variety of sixth perks. It's random chance which sixth perk you'll get, and at 100 legendary flux a go, it's an expensive waste of flux to research a copy and end up with the sixth you didn't want.

If the weapon you want comes in epic rarity, though, you can flux an epic copy using epic flux (which is otherwise useless). Once it's in your armoury, inspect it, choose to upgrade it, and select 'increase rarity': you'll get a preview of what the sixth perk will be. If it's the one you want, confirm to upgrade the rarity. If it isn't, back out.

Simple.

How to find a storm chest: (from someone who just spent an hour trying to find one because it wasn't working)

If you're like me, and you are at the Air Quotes mission in Plankerton, and you can't find a storm chest, here's a few tips on how to find them.

  • You HAVE to be in a 28 zone or above.
  • It doesn't seem to work in some gametypes, namely Eliminate and Collect. It only worked for me once I got into a Build the Radar Grid game.
  • You can leave games if you can't find them and rejoin a new one. However, if you do this, please go into no fill lobbies so that you don't leave games with people in them. It's just proper etiquette.
  • If your lobby has a storm chest in it, the area it is in will automatically be discovered, even if you haven't been over there.

Make sure you don't leave a mission after collecting the chest, because although you keep the loot from it, it will not count towards the mission. Happy hunting!

10 Founders Rules For Save The World Success

Needed to cover this as they were rules I made and followed myself which greatly helped my Save The World experience over the years so I hope they help you as well.

  1. Farm Regularly in a private zone as needed and run expeditions (By doing this, you ensure that you can get the resources you need without bothering anyone and also farm as long as you like, provided that it is not in a zone with a time limit)
  2. Do Not Trade (Trading was never a supported function in the game and it usually results in being scammed, so please avoid trading)
  3. Be mindful of who you add as a Friend. (Just because someone seems cool initially, does not mean they are. I can speak from experience because there were times that I had friends who later betrayed me or did me wrong. Make sure that before you add someone on your friends list that they are a good and decent person/player)
  4. Screenshot and report trolls and griefers, but do not engage them in chat. (There is nothing worse in this game than having to deal with a troll or griefer. It is best to collect the evidence, screenshot it, and send it in to epic in a report, If you have the time to report it in game and send the screenshot in during a mission, great. If not, screenshot it and report it later in a support ticket with the provided evidence) If there is an active griefer in your game and they have sabotaged the mission before it started, leave the game. (It makes sense to leave the game in this instance because they have already ruined it for everyone else. Be sure to report the offender and screenshot any evidence)
  5. Avoid toxic parties. (If you notice that the Console or PC chat party you are in makes you feel uncomfortable or is far too loud to hear anything that is going on, you should probably leave and find a good one)
  6. Value your time and how you spend it (Do not waste your time with leechers, noobs, or people who are "skipping" Just to get to twine to craft 130s or do endurances, or use 160 zones as a "proving ground" or "right of passage" These people are not only a waste of time, they are a waste of resources. Do not even engage them in conversation. If you learn that someone you had been helping is one of these leechers or fits into this category, block them immediately)
  7. If you are being harassed by another player, screenshot it and report it. (Do not engage, because if the offender is a troll, sociopath, or a narcissist, they will use anything and everything against you. The best thing to do is ignore them, record evidence, report, and block them)
  8. Always strive to be better and take breaks on the game as needed and make sure you put your own priorities first. (Remember, life always takes priority over the game or anything else. If you feel mentally burned out or exhausted from the game, take a break. Personal health and responsibilities come first)
  9. Do not be pressured into doing things you don't want to do. (Your Save The World experience is your priority and if you want to help someone who is worth it, that is your choice. Remember, You choose how to spend your time and who you help. Do not waste your time and resources on people who are not worth it and ONLY do help if you can AFFORD TO and it won't hurt your resource stock. Remember, Your experience is your responsibility, do not hinder your own progress. If you have a good friend that you can work with to improve your base and theirs, or get through tough quest line parts, then by all means do it if you can both contribute)
  10. Avoid any suspicious looking for group posts (There have been times where I had thought I was helping people, but what was going on in the party was something entirely different. If you ever find yourself in a party that you are uncomfortable with or the looking for group post did not match up with what is going on in the chat party, then it is wise to leave)

Founders Quickshot Quick Guide (Last Post to be added to the database post)

The Founders Quickshot is a Machine Pistol that has the special 6th perk Hitting an enemy with this weapon grants a 1.7% weapon damage and 1% reload speed increase for 2 seconds, stacking up to 25 times. The most effective way that I know of to perk this weapon is: Critical Rating, Reload Speed, Physical Element, Crit Damage, Fire Rate. This takes advantage of crit damage, the fire rate buff helps the weapon stack weapon damage with hitting an enemy, and the reload speed perk pairs well with the reload speed increase buff for hitting an enemy.

Critical Rating

Reload Speed

Physical

Crit Damage

Fire Rate

I had to make this quick guide because I ended up taking down the previous version I had up. Needed to make sure you all had the correct information, so here it is now. It does well on husks and mist monsters. Just understand that with this perk set, you will be reloading quite a lot.

Fortnite Founders Story, What it has been like (2017-2024) (Game Details as well)

This is a long read, so for those that are interested just know that.

This is a serious post and I asked Atom permission before posting this.

Back in 2017, Save The World was available for early access Purchase with 4 different game packs in June Or July of 2017. At the time, I had money saved up for a few games and a friend of mine told me about Fortnite (back then it was only called Fortnite because the PVE Was the main game). So, I looked into it and noticed they had a Limited Edition upgrade pack that would in time pay for itself. Somewhat later on, they added in the Ultimate upgrade pack. I am one of few that actually shelled out the $250 full retail price for both upgrades and went all in on the game. When the game was in its beginning stages, it looked significantly different than it is now and the mechanics were different too. Back then there were skill trees, skill points, schematics were limited to whatever rolls the RNG on llamas gave you and founders of course had the buff of daily vbucks missions and founders login bonuses to help with grinding. Few legacy schematics are around today and the term legacy refers to any schematic that existed before the Perk Recombobulator was introduced. In this case, since you were limited by RNG, you had to save up all of your vbucks in bulk and then wait for the Legendary Loot Troll Truck LLama to appear in the shop. Since back then you were at the mercy of RNG and could not even see in the llamas for what you were getting, this was the smartest strategy at the time. Also, back then when they did introduce a hero squad you were limited to only 3 heroes in the squad. It stayed this way for quite some time until they introduced improvements to the game later on and changed the way hero squads worked and added the team perk function in as well. Imagine having to figure out how to build, play the game, etc. from its very beginning stages and being limited to legacy gear and being at the mercy of RNG. That is how it was. Had a couple friends that played it but over time they stopped playing and I was left alone to get better at the game. The only positive at that time was that given the amount of founders back then, players were all coming together to help grind, build, upgrade, and trap on the missions. The most important things back then in the early stages were earning skill points, focusing on your traps, heroes, weapon schematics, working on your base, and leveling up weapons very carefully. I say very carefully because back then there was no down tier crafting. Which meant, if you over leveled a schematic before you were ready for it and didn't have access to the materials then it was effectively shelved until you obtained them. As a result, you typically had many schematics of varying levels early on typically a lot of silver and copper tier schematics. You didn't really bother to level anything to malachite level until you actually obtained the material in Canny Valley.

Back then, Malachite was also a rare find and harder to get so farming in a private game became a common thing with outlanders for me. When the game was in its early stages, 2017-2018 there were a lot of founders and people were really enjoying the game. 2019 was when things started to shift. In 2019, creators popped up on youtube and started doing content on the game but the reality was they were still learning too. David Dean did a good job and I think he's the only one I should bother mentioning. You all know about my Fortnite Database Project already. In 2019, there were a lot of updates. They were all good but the learning curves were not easy. Also, from 2017-2019 I was really busy with life and the grind of the game to get better and leveling was quite difficult.

By the time 2020 came along, there was quite a lot of content on the game and I think that's about the time the developers did away with the skill tree (please correct me if I'm wrong and it was earlier). Many new heroes and weapons were introduced as well as more traps. I remember there being an old one called a patrol ward but that was eventually taken out of the game. In 2020, there was also the beginning problem of griefers and trolls and that problem was at its worst from 2020 to the last quarter of 2022. When I say it was at its worst, I mean imagine building in a mission, trapping, getting it all ready, and then someone opens up and sabotages your defensive structure and then laughs about it and is malicious towards everyone in the party. There were some real scumbags. It was really frustrating given that i was still learning how to get better at the game, properly perk my schematics, make better loadouts, and reworking my trap schematics that needed it. By 2021, I was pretty good at the game and friends drifted in and drifted out. I typically carried 85% of the games I had played because at this point people became distracted with Royale and I was really upset that Royale even existed at all and I thought creative was dumb too because it was basically minecraft in Fortnite and I felt that took away from the original PVE experience and I also found it boring. Despite the issues of having to carry so often and the troll problem being so bad as well that sometimes or half the time I had to do missions solo by myself.

2020-2021 were rough years. 2022 I started doing content for the game and eventually saved enough $ to pay the company that made my PC to finish upgrades and help me out remotely to get everything ready for content creation. March 2022, I began making content for Fortnite Save The World as I was figuring it out. At this point, I was one of the best founders and players in the game but I was still figuring out better loadouts and schematics. The game became an even bigger grind when I had to rework my entire survivor squads (whenever that was) and then grind ventures mode to get my power level as high as it is now (144) All while dealing with carrying games most of the time, having to leave games if there were griefers or difficult people, and then outscoring trolls that had no business being on the game in the first place. Leechers were a problem too, they'd just farm in your game while you did all the work. As you know, by the end of 2023, I had mastered Save The World and recently finished The Fortnite Database Project for everyone to utilize who were both new, old, or even intermediate players.

There was also a point in which I was stuck in Canny Valley and grinding skill points to such an extent that by the time I was done, I had hit the tier 4 Twine Skill Tree in preparation for Twine Peaks and at that point the entire skill tree was 95% done due to all my grinding.

So, I can tell you I've seen it all. Griefers that destroy atlases, trolls who would harass and threaten in chat, Leechers who piggyback off of you while you solo a mission because no one else seems to know what they are doing so it becomes the exact scenario of "Oh let's depend on this guy to help us because he knows what he is doing" When I said I carried 85% of games I played I was serious. I rarely ever found a player that was better than me and even IF they did outdo my score on a mission they still did not have the level of knowledge that I did. So, basically they were showoffs with deatomizer 9000's who were also sometimes trolls who got their jollies off of outscoring you and then doing that annoying donkey laugh emote mocking you. I hated them. It was super annoying. Picture having to do everything I did while dealing with all those morons as I was busy with life in general and figuring my own issues out along with the Computer challenges met along the way and finding a proper editor. I use adobe premiere pro because it is the only thing that I could find that does a good job and can render with the right settings and the right resolution. Despite all the trolls, griefers, morons, etc. I have managed to complete my goal and The Fortnite Database Project.

It is now 2024, and the state of the game is not good. The new hitmarker sound effect is a serious issue that has taken away from the sound experience of fortnite because it overshadows all other sounds. On top of that, the new movement animation they introduced is also Garbage and it took away from the experience as well. To see the game in the state it is now, really is painful because it feels like Epic Games has forgotten about players like myself who put so much into it and did so much to help yet I was left on the sidelines as other creators became more popular because I was not able to get into content creation until 2022. On the subject of Storm Shield Defenses, I had help from only 1 or 2 friends on those and that was on and off help and back in the day. If the husks destroyed a part of your shield you had to rebuild and re trap everything back in the time era of 2017-2019 I think it was. By late 2021, I had figured out the dive bombing technique. By mid 2023, I had figured out how to dodge using Phase Shift. Despite everything, I have managed to finish the Fortnite Database Project for all players to utilize. Overall it has been VERY DIFFICULT being a founder and aside from the occassional help from friends along the way, most of the time I was on my own. I can only hope that people appreciate all the hard work I have done in order to make that project happen for everyone. I have put a lot of time and effort into it all but sadly I am not as well known as other creators. So, I'd ask that all of you please link, share, and tell more people that play save the world to look up The Fortnite Database Project, use it, and ask more people to do the same and tell others. Links Below.

Fortnite Database Project Post On YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v0TbFbZSWN8

In closing to this story, being one of the best founders meant making a lot of sacrifices and being very driven to achieve the goal. I am confident to say that at this point, no one else could have done what I did. Therefore the responsibility fell to me since no one else took the initiative. I am also declaring myself the best Fortnite Save The World creator on YouTube because I haven't seen anyone else cover things in the level of detail that I have. Please share those links above around and tell more people. The more that know how to play the game better, the more they can enjoy it.

I have done everything there is to do on Fortnite Save The World. The Fortnite Database Project is done, and now I have told my story. I think that covers everything. Best of luck to you all.

Note: Epic Games recently patched the hitmarker sound effect

This now concludes all of the hard work that has been put into this Fortnite Database Project. Please share these Guides and Reddit Posts around so that more players will be able to learn.

At this point, I am officially one of the best and most skilled Save The World players in the world and I leave all of these tutorials, schematics, hero loadouts, and data available to you so that you can become as skilled and follow in my footsteps as the best founder who also earned a Storm King pin which is super rare. I sincerely wish you all well and that you continue to improve. This path has not been easy and I had to deal with many trolls or leechers along the way sadly in the game and I had to rise above all that and save missions that were failing and carry as needed. This has been rife with challenges and hardship in order to make this all happen and I hope that millions of players find this information and use it to become better at the game. I'm also power level 144 now. I've essentially done everything on the game.

The Fortnite Database Project is complete for all of you to reference. As a Founder, I helped thousands of players over the years with questlines, stormshields, to get better at the game, etc. If you would like to tag along and stay subbed now that the Fortnite content is done, that is up to you. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year, I hope all this effort has been worth it. Please spread word about the Fortnite Database Project so that more players can get better as well. Hopefully this way you can also build more game buddies or friendships.

Best of luck to all of you and in the words of Abraham Lincoln, "With Malice Toward None, With Charity For All, With Firmness In The Right, As God Gives Us To See The Right, Let Us Strive On To Finish The Work We Are In"

All of the data and information is there in the Schematics, Loadouts, Tutorials, Etc.

Note: Removed the founders quickshot. if you want to perk that one the right way, it is as follows.

Founders Quickshot: Critical Rating, Reload Speed, Physical, Crit Damage, Fire Rate.

Note: Removed a duplicate melee schematic so the number of melees is now down to 39.

What to do when an encampment goes wrong and won't complete or spawn the next wave

Encampments can hang (or seem to hang) quite often, meaning that you can't finish them: the next wave won't spawn or they won't finish and give up a gift box.

There are three usual reasons for this:

  1. sometimes there's just a delay: wait a bit
  2. a husk has chased an animal a long distance away from the encampment, or a husk is down underneath an encampment on elevated terrain: nothing for it but to find it and kill it
  3. a husk (usually a huskling) has bugged into the terrain and is under the map. Sometimes they'll be frozen in place down there, and sometimes they'll be running around: try one of the following workarounds:
  • smoke bomb, seismic smash, dragon slash and possibly other abilities will pierce terrain, so do one next to the red dot on the map
  • use a Neon Sniper (available in vending machines in ventures, fluxable in main game). You can see and shoot through the map with it and use it to take out the bugged husk.
  • reset the encampment by moving away out of range (you'll see the 'you're about to leave the combat area' message) and try again. This is a pain in the arse, but is sometimes the only way.
  • see the comment from u/Ithiridiel below: moving to the edge (but not out) of the combat area can force the bugged husk to despawn, and you can then continue as normal

Teamwork Tutorial

This Tutorial Covers Teamwork, Hero Roles, and also provides a Gameplay Demonstration. Links to Loadouts and Tutorials are also provided here in the description. This is the last Tutorial in the series of Fortnite Tutorial Content. The Linked Tutorials below also provide you with additional information.

This is also the longest tutorial due to information and gameplay. The gameplay is an entire mission with some minor edits with me playing as my Original Willow Loadout.

Outlanders Farm and Assist the Constructor with upgrading the structure, trapping, and bringing in more materials if they are running low, assisting building as well. Then you fulfill the tactical combat role of being an interceptor, mist monster killer, and horde destroyer. Remember to support the soldiers or ninjas as needed.

Constructors build, trap, upgrade, strategically place their turret, and place their base down in an area in which it will cover the most of the defensive structure.

Soldiers pretty much destroy as many husks as possible. Remember to support struggling flanks, destroy mist monsters, assist ninjas and outlanders as needed.

Ninjas support soldiers, outlanders, and flanks around the objective that are struggling as well as clearing out encampments and husks.

Also, remember that with the Sarah Claus x3 Shield Regen Loadout on the Channel, you can tank husks hordes in storm shield defenses (and missions) from Stonewood 1 all the way up to Twine SSD 7 or 8, provided you have your heroes properly leveled, the Loadout I use, and the properly legendary perked Guardians will to 144 (144 for use in Twine 7,8), 106 for Twine SSD 1-6, 106 for Canny 8, 9,10, 77 for Canny 7 and everything below it. There is also the Whiteout Fiona Loadout on the Channel that is setup to be an aggressive encampment clearer and better way of doing eliminate and collect missions.

x3 Shield Regen Ninja Loadout: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cqloYhquLRU&t=2s

Whiteout Fiona Crit Ninja Loadout: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uxvnFd06eKg

The rest is covered in tutorials or should be common knowledge by now.

Note: There is a shared responsibility of everyone to rebuild walls, roofs, and defenses around the immediate area of the objective if things are really bad and smashers wreck the main building and open up the defending walls.

Teamwork is important for mission success. I needed to cover this and provide all of the additional information below, so that if you needed to understand your role in your hero class, the information is only a few clicks away. There have been many times where I had to carry and I made the difference between mission success and failure. Learn your roles for each Hero Class and play them accordingly. Links to many resources are below. This is the LAST Tutorial in this content series I am doing.

Fortnite Dodging And Divebombing Outlander Tutorial

Phase Shift can be used for more than just moving fast around the battlefield. It can be used to Dodge and Divebomb! This Tutorial shows you how to do it. Upon getting more familiar with these tactics, you can also use Phase Shift to Counter Attack after Dodging and also Ambush if the husks are sleeping or do not expect you to move in on them while they are distracted by one of your team mates in game.

You Dodge by timing your phase shift to avoid a smasher or other mist monster or enemy. You Dive Bomb by Phase Shifting Towards the enemy with the Potshot Launcher and Timing it so that you pull the trigger to launch the projectile at them so it scores a hit.

The Gameplay in this tutorial after the explanation shows you how to Dodge and Divebomb.

Fortnite Dodging And Divebombing Tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y3DSSzUFbiU

Watch the gameplay and study the timing to learn it. Then when you can, practice it yourself. It takes some time to learn. Consider this a Primer for an upcoming tutorial. I'm still working on another 1 or 2 of them.

Settings Tutorial And Controller Sensitivity

This is a Tutorial on how to configure settings and also the suggested controller sensitivity I used on console as a founder and have been for a long time. The controller sensitivity settings are smooth and effective and also play their role in how I am able to play the Outlander class aggressively. I hope you all enjoy them and the details and information for the settings that I use are all included in this brief 3 minute Tutorial. Also, as noted in the Tutorial, these settings work best on the Series X due to it being 60 FPS for Save The World. Link Below!

Settings Tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8aY-qua8-c8

Other Tutorials are on their way. Right now I need to record gameplay for them. Once they are done, I'll move on to the remaining hero loadouts.

Ventures Tutorial, Grind Cycle, Ventures Loadouts, And Important Details

This Tutorial covers a lot of important information about Ventures mode, an efficient Grind Cycle, Loadouts for Ventures, and other important details. In order to be efficient at leveling up in ventures, you need to have the right loadouts that will save you time, the right grind method, and also the completion of challenge quests on a regular basis. It is also important to start farming in no fill in a private zone as soon as the new season starts which is on November 22nd or 23rd.

The Grind Cycle in ventures and in the main game, refers to farming first to max out your resources and building materials to be ready to grind. Then you start with a building mission to begin the grind. After that, you then switch to lower maintenance missions such as Resupply, Eliminate and Collect, Destroy The Encampments, and Build The Radar Grids. Think of the Build The Radar Grid as an opportunity to earn easy rewards and also farm back building materials and resources you were lacking, since you are only building towers, you can easily use that Archaeolojess Farmer loadout mentioned in the video below to farm back your resources and also be effective and durable enough in combat against the husks to function, farm, and complete your mission. Just be sure all of your heros are properly leveled.

Loadouts in the video are used as follows.

  1. ArchaeoloJess loadout is used to farm and grind missions such as Resupply, Build The Radar Grid, and Farming while eliminating husks in eliminate and collect. REMEMBER TO USE ANTI MATERIAL CHARGE FOR FAST FARMING! PULL OUT YOUR PICKAXE AND USE LEFT TRIGGER OR HEAVY/POWER ATTACK DEPENDING ON YOUR PLAYING PLATFORM!
  2. Soldier Loadout in the Video can be used to help with missions that require building and firepower, with his low cooldown and high damage output, he can be used to speedrun missions that would otherwise take a lot of time.
  3. Base Kyle Constructor Loadout can be used to buff defenses and trap damage when you think other folks are not going to help or take the initiative to do so. Hopefully you have good teams and not leechers.

Given all of these preparations, I hope it gives you all an edge on the new ventures season. Also, be sure to farm weapons from vending machines once you get enough resources and also be sure to farm treasure chests in zones on no fill on private by using the In The Zone Outlander ability which you activate using your pickaxe and hitting objects 5 times.

Other Details to note are that inventory is player specific and that the only thing that carries over into Ventures that is craftable are your trap schematics, so make sure you are working on traps actively if you have not already. Here is a link to my Traps Tutorial in case you need a primer on perks and how to use them: Trap and Defense Tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zqimf8qvlhk

The Video Below will clue you in on all the important information and details, link provided.

Ventures Tutorial, Grind Cycle, etc. ---> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dDh8bfI0t2k

This took quite a lot of time and editing and there is a lot to explain so the tutorial video will cover that for you. Happy Thanksgiving and Good Hunting!

More Tutorials are on the way! Please be patient. I'm working on them, quality editing takes time.

Current method of finding zombie chickens.

#THE SEASON ENDED, COMEBACK IN NEXT YEAR'S FORTNITEMARES FOR THIS GUIDE.


Simple as a zombie chicken pie:

  • Start Survive The Night mission in ventures (obviously)

  • Go to north west corner of the map

  • They'll spawn in groups of 3. Keep eliminating them as they will spawn continously.

Primal Weapons Tutorial/MQS "Maniac Quality Standard" of Benchmarking

The Primal Weapons are similar to the Black Metal weapons BUT they are not the same, nor are they as powerful as Black Metal. This Tutorial shows you how to perk them and how to use them, however keep in mind that if you want to streamline the set, you can switch the 6th perks all to 30% more damage to targets above 85% health. By comparision, the Primal Weapons are still good and functional but are not as hard hitting or damaging as black metal. The Link Below provides the Tutorial and Gameplay Demonstration.

Primal Weapons Tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nR7laPoFBEg

The Stink Bow was also Not Put In This Tutorial because it did not reach MQS.

MQS is the New Official Acronym for "Maniac Quality Standard" which is my way of Benchmarking weapons. If a weapon failed to pass the OP (overpowered) and/or "On Tier" effectiveness, stress test, and quality standard benchmark, then it is not on the channel. Also, The Schematics series of content will finish by Dec. 25th. Once all of those post, use that as your reference point. Any Schematics you see on the channel Met MQS and Passed.

If they are NOT on the channel, they failed MQS.

The way I benchmark is by making a 77 with all legendary perks and then testing it in 76 and 100 zones. If it passes in a 100 zone as a 77, it's OP, if it passes in a 76 zone as a 77, its "On Tier" effectiveness. The Stink Bow failed to meet my standard of quality and underperformed as a 130 with legendary perks in a 116 and that was with a crit build and a mist monster damage perk on it. It was a sad disappointment.

This Tutorial is an all in one schematic video as well, so that's covered.

Outlander Hero Class Tutorial

As an Outlander, you Excel in Intercepting, Farming, Mobility, and Destroying Mist Monsters (if you have the right Loadout and Equipment) and many other different advantages as well. Along with the versatility and possibilities of many different playstyles and applications, this class also has the added mobility that can rival or Even Outclass A Ninja In Mobility depending on the application and power of your Hero Loadout and how well you can use phase shift, abilities, and equipment. The duty of an Outlander is actually Multi Role depending on how you fix your Loadouts. As an Outlander, you gather and farm materials to help build and upgrade the defenses around the objective as well as traps (Assist The Constructor if they are struggling or run out of materials or if more defenses need to be built so the mission will succeed), Destroy Mist Monsters, Encampments, Intercept Flingers, Lobbers, Destroy Hordes of Husks, and also provide support to any flanks if your team is having trouble.

You can further help this by putting down TEDDY and Stationary Hover Turrets to temporarily hold down a flank while you support another one. You also need to go after smashers and assist Soldiers if they are struggling to take a smasher or miniboss down. Your Loadout, Heroes, and Equipment will determine how effective you are. Think about the playstyle you want. Your Hero Choices for your Outlander Loadout will directly determine how effective it is. Use your abilities in combat well. For example, if you are surrounded by husks, use Seismic Smash, if you need help on a chokepoint or need to make a temporary one, put down TEDDY and Stationary Hover Turrets. Use your abilities based upon your situation and need. If you make a Farmer Loadout, then you go into a zone on no fill and farm in the zone, and do resupply missions so that you can at least earn some rewards along the way.

If you go the Combat Outlander Route such as if you use my Original Willow Loadout, Armored Willow, and my Red Willow Mech Loadout then you are going the Tactical Combat Route. The advantage of going that way as well as having the basic farming buffs from the Outlander class itself give you a well rounded all in one advantage provided you have the right equipment and play the class properly and aggressively. Those 3 Loadouts that I have made are Iconic. The application and playstyle of the Original Willow loadout maximizes damage vs mist monsters and the effectiveness of black metal weapons. The Armored Willow Loadout is a sturdier version of my original, so it can hold up better in higher level or heavier zones while still using the same equipment as my original. The Red Mech Willow Loadout is specifically designed for Horde Control, High Level Storm Shield Defenses, Clearing Encampments, Eliminate and Collect, and also Destroying Mist Monsters by of course spamming launchers. The advantage of being able to spam phase shift, launchers, and also deal a lot of damage rapidly certainly makes all the difference. Red Willow can carry Twine 9 and 10 as you saw on an earlier post and on the channel. Just keep in mind, in that application you will burn through ammo and it will take time for you to get used to playing the Outlander Class aggressively like I do. I'm planning a more advanced tutorial for later on that will have many important details and will be heavily focused on gameplay demonstration so you understand how to play it aggressively, so when that's released watch it all the way through. Link to the new Outlander Tutorial and other resources related to This Tutorial are below. Playing the Outlander the right way is a lot of responsibility and also one of the main reasons that it is my Main Class is due to the fact that I've had to fill a Multi Role in order to help my teams when it calls for the use of an Outlander where other classes in the situation may be lacking.

I know that's a lot of information, there is a lot to know about this class and as I mentioned earlier, I'll have some other tutorials later on. It would make me proud to see you all get as good as or better than me. I'm one of the best Founders in Save The World and it has taken years of grinding and experience to have an in depth understanding of this game. Keep following along for more tutorials. I'll be working on them as I'm able.

Ninja Hero Class Tutorial

As a Ninja, you Excel in Melee Combat, are a mobile hero class as well (similar to Outlander in movement speed) and your Primary Role is to Clear Out Encampments, Eliminate Hordes of husks in missions and provide defense assistance to your team by helping reduce the hordes, support any flanks that are having trouble, do Eliminate And Collect Missions, and also Tanking the Hordes of husks in Storm Shield Defenses by using a x3 Shield Regen Loadout and controlling and holding the aggro of the horde of husks while your team mops up any stragglers. The Loadout I am providing is very strong and maintains its power until around Twine Storm Shield Defense 8. That being the case if your heroes in that loadout below are properly leveled like mine are and the guardians will sword is 144 Sunbeam and legendary perked for the Twine SSD's 7 and 8. The x3 Shield Regen Loadout is linked below. Also, depending on your playstyle you can make Spear and Axe Ninjas as well. There are also other options like smoke bomb and ninja stars if that is the route you want to take. I however went the tactical route for the x3 Shield Regen Ninja and the Crit Explosions Ninja Loadouts as are shown below. They are very effective and still hold their power today after all these years. Timestamps and Gameplay Are Provided In The Ninja Class Tutorial Video below.

After Twine Storm Shield Defense 8 however, you will need to use my Red Willow Loadout if you are to be able to finish Twine SSD's 9 and 10 or if you need to help carry a friend that is struggling with finishing them. It is possible to do it with enough traps but Twine SSD's 9 and 10 are very serious defenses and more often than not, you will need that extra firepower and horde control as well as the help of a friend or two.

Constructor Hero Class Tutorial

As a Constructor, your primary responsibilities are Base Defense and Melee Tanking but you can't do both at once. This Tutorial Provides insight into both of those and also provides example Loadouts that you can use. Your Main Role as a constructor is Building, upgrading the defensive structure to max out defense, place your base down to activate your defensive buffs, and place and set down traps and create chokepoints with said traps, walls, floors, etc. to prevent the husks from reaching the Objective. The constructor is the Last Line Of Defense in a mission and it is an important role to fill. Your Traps are key to that and you have an advantage if they are maxed out and Orange Perked. If you have not yet seen the Traps and Defense Tutorial that I have made, I'd advise you to view that now, link provided below so that you can have a little extra information to go on aside from what is provided in this Tutorial Video.

You can also in some cases make a constructor into an offensive tanker and my Tank Penny Fat Bottomed Girl Loadout is an example of that. Link is below if you want that Loadout.

Soldier Hero Class Tutorial

The Soldier Hero Class is a Combat Based Class. As a Soldier your primary duty is to be a minigunner or machinegunner and to target and destroy as many husks, mist monsters, smashers, etc. as possible and prevent them from reaching the objective. Your role playing this class is dealing as much damage as possible and constantly raining lead on the husks until there is none of them left! The content in the tutorial that I will provide in the link below has all the finer details and information you need as well as time stamps and gameplay demonstrations from full missions.

Also, the next round of Schematics are on their way and will begin airing on the channel starting October 25th up to December 25th. Soon I will be working on some more tutorials.

Today I resolved an issue that turned out to be related to the media cache in my editor. Had a problem, updated the video card driver, and cleared the media cache on premiere pro. Problem solved, thankfully. Right now I'm going to take a day to relax before I start editing again. I'm really tired from resolving that issue because I was stressed out and calmly trying to resolve the issue and I did. Now I'm suffering from some mental burnout but the issue is fixed.

Poll: Do you want A Gameplay Demonstration with Hero Class Tutorials?

I have been busy editing content, finished the Dialogue Voiceover for Hero Class Tutorials, and I'm nearly done with editing all the schematics. SO! Do you want me to include a Gameplay Demonstration with Each Hero Class for the class tutorials?

Remember to update your guides.

Epic can modify a lot (i know right?) of things regarding STW. For example, i have updated my farming guide to accomodate the "all glowing animals" change with updated info.
