Fortbyte 70 Accessible by skydiving through the rings above Lazy Lagoon
- 5 years ago
Today’s Fortbyte hunt in Fortnite is more action-oriented than usual, as you will not really be looking for anything hidden, but rather to find #70, you’ll have to dive. Specifically, the piece is accessible by skydiving through the rings above Lazy Lagoon with the Vibrant Contrails equipped.
First, we should probably start with the Contrail, which is in tier 26 of the paid Fortnite battle pass, meaning no freebies here this time like we saw with the Bunker Basher pickaxe. At week 5, hopefully you’ve hit tier 26 by now, but if not, get to grinding. Or paying.
After that, you need to jump in the battle bus in a normal game, not Playground, and hope that you’re going somewhere near Lazy Lagoon. The first ring is pretty high up, meaning you really are not going to be able to do this other than directly from the battle bus. You should glide over to it, and then once you’re on top of it, that’s when you begin your dive.
I believe there are four rings in total, staggered over the central ship in Lazy Lagoon. Once you go through one, the next one below it will expand and be easier to get through. You are allowed to re-open your glider if you feel you’re getting off track, and you will still get credit for skydiving. But if you miss, there are no do-overs and you’ll have to start an entirely new game to get back up there, barring some lucky respawn up top, depending on the mode.
The fourth ring will contain the Fortbyte #70 piece, and you do not have to hold down E or anything as you pass through it, if you touch it, you will get it, unlike most of the other ones. After that, you are free to keep gliding and land either at Lazy, or perhaps preferably, somewhere nearby, given that I saw about 15 people do this exact same dive when I just tried it.
And just in case you need it, here’s a map of where you’re going and exactly where the rings are. They’re hard to miss. So hard this probably didn’t even need a guide, but here we are. See you out there.
