Epic Games released a new Fortnite patch titled 21.50. Considered a minor, this update should deal with a couple of known issues caused by the previous patch. This time around, Epic Games also shared direct information through their official website regarding the patch, which sounds an upcoming weekly event.
Fire With Fire Week
Some fight fire with fire. Others just add fire to the fire. No matter which kind of person you are, set serenity to flame in Fire with Fire Week — happening from September 7 at 9 AM ET to September 13 at 9 AM ET!
In Fire with Fire Week, the Primal Flame Bow and Dragon’s Breath Shotgun will rise from the ashes. To coincide with these unvaults, Firefly Jars will be available at a red-hot rate. Want to put out the fun the fires? Fear not: Chug Cannons will be in increased supply too. Complete special Quests for XP while using Firefly Jars and Chug Cannons, and while rekindling old flames with the returning items.
You’ll be able to find Primal Flame Bows and Dragon’s Breath Shotguns from the ground and Chests. (Find Arrows from the ground and Ammo Boxes!) Firefly Jars will be findable from the ground and Chests as usual, but with higher availability. And you can spend Bars for Chug Cannons as before, but they’ll be findable from the ground and Chests also! When Fire with Fire Week starts, see the Quests in the “Fire with Fire Week” category on the Quests page.
