The beforehand vaulted blade is again, and hopefully it’s been re-balanced.
Epic first rolled out the Infinity Blade in December’s v7.01 update, however it was quickly vaulted after it was determined that it was too overpowered.
But now, the blade is again in a brand new Sword Fight LTM, and might be present in treasure chests all through the map.
“Treasure chests contain Epic or better weapons, as well as the occasional Infinity Blade,” reads the LTM’s description. “Fight your opponents to find out who is worthy of the Blade… and who is not.”
The sword was an homage to Epic’s Infinity Blade collection, in any case three games have been faraway from the App retailer.
At the time the Fortnite sword was vaulted, the dev mentioned it “messed up and rolled out the Infinity Blade overpowered,” however it was still being found by some players after it was removed. This was later addressed in a hotfix.
Since it’s again in enterprise, Epic has presumably ironed out the kinks.
As we barrel in direction of Season 8, Fortnite’s map is cracking up, as players prepare for tremors and an earthquake of epic proportions.
