Gamers diving into the world of Fortnite Battle Royale are met with a diverse and exciting cast of characters. These characters, known as non-playable characters (NPCs), play a crucial role in the game, offering both helpful services and thrilling challenges.
In Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 3, players can encounter two types of NPCs: friendly and hostile. While it may be tempting to only interact with the friendly characters, both types have their own unique contributions to offer. Understanding the locations and abilities of these NPCs can be the key to securing a Victory Royale.
The friendly NPCs in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 3 provide valuable services and sell useful items. Here are some of the friendly characters players can encounter:
1. Artemis – Located at Mount Olympus
2. Brite Raider – Found south of Megalo Depot
3. Centurion – Can be found at Piney Lane landmark
4. Cerberus – Located at Grim Gate
5. Hope – Found at Sandy Steppes
6. Rust – Located at Sandy Strip landmark
7. Oscar – Can be found at Classy Courts
8. Peabody – Found at Pea Bois HQ landmark
9. Peelosopher – Located at Bananocrates Restored Reels
10. Ruckus – Found at Lil Dirty Dock landmark
11. Triage Trooper – Can be found at Rescue Station landmark
12. Vengeance Jones – Located at The Wreckmill landmark
While these friendly NPCs offer assistance, players should not forget about the hostile characters on the island. Engaging with hostile NPCs can lead to valuable rewards. The Wasteland Warriors, for example, are marked on the players’ maps as Medallion bosses. Defeating these bosses grants unique abilities and Mythic weapons. Players can find the Wasteland Warriors at Redline Rig, Nitrodrome, and Brutal Beachhead. However, it's important to note that the boss at Nitrodrome, Ringmaster Scarr, has a fixed position, while the others may be roaming around the map on Nitro-infused vehicles.
Hostile NPCs are not the only challenge players can tackle for rewards. Forecast Towers near various locations on the map provide players with the chance to collect Epic-rarity Huntress DMR weapons. By defeating the three hostile NPCs near Reclaimed Villa, Restored Reels, Lil’ Villa, Zenith Wall, and Estate Station, players can secure these powerful weapons and gain the ability to see the next Storm Circle before it is revealed.
Whether players choose to engage with friendly or hostile NPCs, both types offer unique advantages and rewards. Exploring the Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 3 map and interacting with these characters can be a thrilling and rewarding experience.
Now that you know where to find these characters, will you unlock the Wrecked crew and take on the challenges that await you? The choice is yours.
