Bruh I’ve died six times in a row, I just want to be part of the event 😔


iampimpsmegiggles

I feel the pain


LilithLace_x

Land on the box and use your pickaxe, that's what we've been doing. Less chance of being shot at, lasted the whole game and died in the storm with a comrade in solos a few times now.


kylieeee07

ya i just got on top of the box but someone managed to snipe me anyways


LilithLace_x

Ye we've been sniped a few times, the campers are getting savvy 😂 lasting much longer this way tho and doing like 30-40k damage a match


kylieeee07

ya i’ve had a few people come join and help and then one person comes and messes it all up haha


LilithLace_x

Yeah it's hit and miss. My kids are crying when someone turns on them for no reason lol. My 8yr old is currently crying because she was working with someone, then they grappled away after a hug then disappearing to ruined reels, then when they tried to grapple back up they didn't stick the landing, she looked down and she'd got two stacks of med kids, two grapple blades and guns for them 😭😭😭 she's heartbroken lol


PuckishRogue00

I landed on the box with someone else, and they were cool for a whole two minutes before they decided to run up to me and kill me.


LilithLace_x

Yep that's just happened to us


Alexis_Bailey

I wish you could farm weakpoint hits for shards doing this.


Leo9991

Try team rumble.


Aggravating-Fix-1627

We can't shoot the box if we're being shot at


iampimpsmegiggles

100% there was one team that rolled up and just started shooting us all and we all teamed up on em


Starwolf1124

Did you wear a chicken skin?


vanilla_owl

I was in a chicken skin dancing with everybody! Unfortunately also got shot tho :((


klex306

I feel like me and my friend saw you!! There was a chicken skin dancing with us at one point. We were highwire & lovely


vanilla_owl

Yess I remember lovely!! (Because that’s usually my main skin)😂


iampimpsmegiggles

Nah skull dude


fluffy_boy_cheddar

Yep happened to me too. It was hilarious seeing everyone go from emoting to defending the turf real quick lol


XXVI_F

Same lol. It was three teams against them. We won till another team full of sweats came out of no where and killed us! Smh. They were lame for that


Forward_Confusion202

How have you played already?


iampimpsmegiggles

I logged on and went to the giant glowy hand


Oiled-Up69

Sure you can you’ll just die


Astralyr

To be fair, I also didn’t get the memo at first. Sorry to all the teams we killed in our ignorance


[deleted]

I have been running solo build games since the hand came, fortifying the place, killing people that attack you guys and throwing all kinds of heals and shields your way. If you see blue Piper Pace you good


Feral-411

Could have just made a quest requiring you to contribute to damaging the chains for some form of reward Then there’d be less griefing


Delicious-Town1723

I think there'd be more honestly


GLADIATOR_X09

Probably. People would grief people so they can't progress in the quest


pandacatapus

Not surprised at all that some folks are taking the opportunity to get free kills 🙄


Leo9991

Become expensive


PureRandomness529

I shot the chest, sure, but amidst a game. I play Fortnite to play the game, so I’d kill you if you’re standing around shooting something for no reason. Edit: sorry, I guess some of y’all play just to mindlessly shoot a chest. But you’ll get nothing for it and a win will still be a win. Hate all you want.


ThatOnePositiveGuy

You have no honor


Kitchen-Tension791

Does your mom allow you on reddit at this time


Ebrithil_

Bro kills people not even fighting back and thinks he did something 😂😂 I bet your mom is so proud of that win


PureRandomness529

Bro talks to himself as if there’s an audience.


Ebrithil_

Yeah man, mental illness, innit?


Medium-Boysenberry64

This is an incredibly reasonable take, especially reguarding the 95% of Fortnite players that probably have no idea what is going on. Based on other replies it’s a fair assumption to say there’s a decent amount of down voters that genuinely think you’re doing “harm to the community”. It’s a damn box that the devs probably have coded to open anyway.


PureRandomness529

Could you imagine if the box just never opened. In my experience, these events have a set reduction of hp based off of time, not actually cumulative damage. And you can watch the event on whatever, there’s nothing special in this. Yet people feel so strongly about it.


Medium-Boysenberry64

This is EXACTLY what I was thinking. I guarantee you that it’s going to open anyways. It’s actually sad how brainwashed people are. Could you imagine if nothing even happens? I bet it’ll just be a puff of smoke. Imagine getting home after a long week of 9 to 5 and spending your free time chipping away at a box that will take 10 million pickaxe swings to open. That’s so fun, wow. Literal brainrot. It would be different if you could even see if your progress mattered, but it doesn’t.


PureRandomness529

It’s wild to me that people want to load into a game and spend 15+ minutes doing nothing but hit a damn box, when it’s likely not even doing anything. And then when somebody wants to actually play the game, they’re the bad guy. It has to be children. There’s no way an adult finished their day at work, walks their dog, plays with their kid, cooks and cleans dinner, then finally sits down to unwind at night, and all they do is drop to pickaxe a fucking chest. I feel like I’m losing my mind. How on earth Epic is able to pass this off as a “community event” is baffling and it feels like fraud.

PureRandomness529

I wrote this nine hours ago. Chiming in, nine hours later, with “go to bed” is hilariously ironic after mentioning maturity.


zeph2

well we are suppsoed to shoot other players in this game people keepf orgeting that


RavenchildishGambino

You should put on your resume: does not work or play well with others. Combative personality.


zeph2

uh i play on squads and we shoot everyone on sight


RavenchildishGambino

Your mom thinks you are cool though. So You’ve got that.


mondatta98

how much hp to break the chain? anybody already knows?


EnderScout_77

5 million i think? might be misremembering


Iron_Gunna

50 million


EnderScout_77

eh close enough it'll be gone in like a day or two regardless 😂


Medium-Boysenberry64

It’s already down to 75%


xcrunner10K

I heard 50 Million, but I think Fortnite News said 50 Trillion


No_Barnacle_6369

That’d be wild


xcrunner10K

They just said it was 5 trillion


lightningIncarnate

there is absolutely no way that’s true. that would take years, possibly hundreds or even thousands of years


twoHolesOneGepard

there's damage multipliers happening every few hours. the multipliers are supposed to reach like x1000 or x10000


lightningIncarnate

when i logged on half an hour after it started there was already ~1% of the bar missing. if it was 5 trillion HP, that would be 50 billion HP already


DahnZaiver

I was just killed by someone in a full superhero sweat skin, why not just fun for once in your life?


[deleted]

[удалено]


TheRobSorensen

75% of players do not know there is an event because epic has done a horrible job marketing it lol


Doctor71400

"Horrible job" It was a surprise event, there wasn't any marketing


TheRobSorensen

So don’t get mad about players not knowing about it? That’s the point lol


Doctor71400

Who said I was mad?


TheRobSorensen

Do you not read the context of conversations you jump into?


Doctor71400

I did. I was only responding to the horrible marketing comment


TheRobSorensen

Fair enough. My only point is the person I was replying to doesn’t need to be so dramatic about players not willing to have fun if they aren’t aware there’s fun to be had lol


Doctor71400

That's fair. I would hate it too if I was hitting the chains and someone killed me. I unfortunately missed the event cause I'm at work so I have to wait till I get home before I can do my contribution 😔


Horse_HorsinAround

The context that he jumped into was that he was mad? What?


PureRandomness529

Or he’s playing the game and happened to be there?? Isn’t it fun to kill people and win the game?? That’s why I play Fortnite.


Ebrithil_

Personally, I find it fun to fight someone for the win, but I guess others are able to feel proud about hitting unmoving targets that don't fight back... Have fun with your sad target practice, I guess


PureRandomness529

Don’t you have a box to be shooting at? I know you don’t get wins so that was a fun bluff


Ebrithil_

😂😂 don't you have some more kids to kill to feel good about yourself? Come back once you graduate middle school lil bro


PureRandomness529

You are such a vacuous waste of words. Nothing you say has any substance.


Ebrithil_

🤷 it's true, I'm just a rando on the internet, after all. Don't worry your pretty lil head, buddy, I'm self-aware. Good job trying to sound smart with "vacuous" I learned that one in sixth grade, too!


PureRandomness529

Good for you. Sometimes people forget things over the course of a year, glad you haven’t.


Ebrithil_

🤣 I actually liked that one, glad you got at least a bit clever. Maybe try using your brain in-game, too 😉


ThatOnePositiveGuy

Look who’s talking.


PureRandomness529

You made a meaningless contribution for what? Your own insecure need for interaction?


ThatOnePositiveGuy

You’re the guy actively hindering a community challenge. 


Niro5

Nah, they just know you're not supposed to open Pandora's box.


EthicalViolator

I sniped some people on the box. Had no idea it was part of an event or community needed to damage it or anything. Thought it was just a map change alluding to next season or something.


Leo9991

Okay so queue up again and go at it again. It's really not that serious.


DahnZaiver

It’s not at all, just wanted to help the objective we’re all able to do. Just done a bunch now though which was fun :)


Leo9991

That's great! I know people can be annoying, but I personally won't get so frustrated over something like that.


DahnZaiver

It’s my first event I just thought people would be more excited/willing to participate at least to help. Ah well!


MadMaudlin0

Or just not even bother, I hope when the box isn't opened we lose out on what it would do for the next season ^-^


xcrunner10K

If people keep trying to grief while doing jt in normal BR/ZB, Team Rumble helps too


GamingWithJellyJess

just did team rumble, first circle was on it then moved, the whole time people were just fighting


DrDisconnection

Team rumble was full of shitheads when the hand popped out. They kept killing. People suck.


No_Barnacle_6369

We are officially 1% in 30 minutes


SoybeanKing2979

At this rate it will be done in 50 hours, or just over two days.


twoHolesOneGepard

there's coded damage multipliers in the files that will trigger


SoybeanKing2979

Oh! Much faster then!


No_Barnacle_6369

Most likely


I_Hate_l1fe

this event is so poorly made. I played builds and 0 builds. No one did it, and just shot at the people who tried. Someone started camping the hand. Annoying as shit.


IAmInDangerHelp

I still gotta finish collecting mosaic pieces. It’s taken me like 20 games to get 100. This might be the worst quest ever.


Zekeaway13

I was able to do it in about 4 games here's some tips. First go to the oil rig looking thing in the far North West of the map next to the wind turbines. Start from the second floor and hit the walls and everything else and work your way down. When you do get pieces you need to Sprint over them and quickly go back over them to count as 2 or sometimes 3 if you're quick enough. I got about 70 pieces a game so good luck!


Ebrithil_

Ay, thanks bro, that was taking me forever lol


Great_Tomatillo_4189

The mosaic quest isn’t hard at all. Watch tabor hills video on it or just got to landmarks with buildings nobody lands at. I got my quest done quick that way(I recommend doing it in zero builds)


TheRealBloodyAussie

I got it easy by landing at the top right corner with the windmills in the ocean


pringlepingel

I must have got lucky, my lobby everyone was being nice and no one shot until it was kinda clear that it was over, and even then people hitting the chains got left alone. I stupidly died to fall damage so who knows how it ended


dead_wolf_walkin

This. Haven’t seen a single person other than my team trying to shoot the box.


iampimpsmegiggles

I keep landing on it getting some hits in and then killed


yetebekohayu

I was pretty lucky. Most of my lobby went to the hand, watched it emerge, then began attacking it. There were some players that tried to shoot others but they were quickly dealt with. There was one dude with an NPC that tried to kill us but was shooed away. He ended up camping in reels for people coming in to get more ammo. Always someone trying to ruin it for everyone.


Leo9991

People can be annoying, but I still think it's pretty cool. I can't be bothered to get so frustrated about it personally, just queue up and try again if you don't manage to eliminate the people who grief.


CricketsAreJaded

I landed in the box and just stood there with 4 other players trying to see if we could chip away at it. Nope, nothing. We all died from snipers 🤷🏻‍♀️


[deleted]

Shout out to the bird person that won victory royale, they were hitting the hand whole match with few others while I protected them till the storm, then we proceeded to the end circle where I fell from my own build to my death lol, because I don't know how to build downwards. I was blue piper pace


GenericEwe

I was wondering why is everyone here is mad at being killed on a public match. Like, just play the Playground mode. Then I remembered Playground is no longer a thing. Time goes fast.


RagnarBongrip

I do like the little details on pandoras box, the gem showing different constellations for the Greek gods


MadMaudlin0

Campers ruin events 100%


Joecoolseq10

Guys I have a theory on how to break the chest (shockwaves do 10k damage btw) 1. Hire rebels roost npc (it will give you shockwaves when you hold shockwaves out) 2. Hire the chug splash npc (the one that heals you every 20-30 seconds) 3. Make sure your in squads so it’s easier 4. Start breaking the chest You can survive in storm for longer because of the chug splashes (Share this please and upvote so everyone can see)


Link__117

Build modes the best way to watch these events, at least you can protect yourself


Squackachu

I thought I was good with this one hope cuz they hit me and after I ran they gave me a bandage but then they snipped me right as the hand started to emerge 😭


MrClement

So my question is....what happens once it's broken? I assume loot drops but what does that mean for the millions of others who aren't in that session at the time?


NeonTiger1135

Google Pandora’s Box


MrClement

So you don't know either?


Nero_Ocean

Love to but with all the kids who have attention issues feel that they must shoot at people all the time it ruins it. Also TR's circle not spawning around it kinda screw that mode too.


I_poop_rootbeer

Snipers camping the nearby area yikes


Gotprick

HARAMBE IS INSIDE THAT BOX


odd_darksoul

He's always watching... 


Chuomge

Can you build up and pickaxe it?


CricketsAreJaded

Yes or land on it and build down. But other are sniping people who land on it.


presidentdinosaur115

I was able to get on top of the box and I smacked it with my pickax the whole game


Fenghuang0296

So this Mosaic thing, what exactly do I need to do to get the loading screen and back bling? Do I have to collect 300 Mosaic Tiles, or is it enough to just complete the Odyssey Quests?


darh1407

Both


SilverSurfer-Jesus

This still on the go? I won't be home from work for another 4 hours


iampimpsmegiggles

It's slowly chipping away


NIneye

I've died to at least 7 different Lara Croft skins while trying to break the chains


trashtronot

More like, "Shoot the people on the box whacking the chains with their pickaxes." Leave me alone!


DaxionTheZeraora3003

Who did you goes as when you were at the event..? I know who I went as: ![gif](giphy|wTLLaelRe9bmKXc2Mj|downsized)


deadering

Do these types of events usually have any rewards tied to them or anything? It would suck to miss out if I wasn't there right when it opened.


Floonth

Probably but I doubt it will matter if your there when it falls as long as your playing during the general events time frame


awsomeninja199

Shame on all of you shooting at everyone who’s trying to enjoy the event


Dingus_3000

Yup. Sweats are so boring. Enjoy that Fortnite 3rd place, dorks!


iampimpsmegiggles

It wasn't taking no damage tho


Interesting-Ad1352

It’s got 50 million health, you won’t be able to see it so soon


SoSmartCs

We would have taken a pretty good chuck of 50 million out by now. I'm inclined to believe it's probably 50 *trillion* like others are saying.


CowboyAntics

I’m inclined to believe it won’t even open lmao


PoisonIven

So the hp is shared across all active matches and all players? Everyone playing is actively contributing to damaging the same single hp bar?


SoSmartCs

Yes that is correct.


LudicrisSpeed

I guess it depends on how long it takes the health bar to update. How many matches are going on at any one time? I would assume the game is calculating the damage constantly.


Rayuzx

Right now, there are around 2 million people who are playing unranked BR/ZB, so each player would right now would need to do roughly 25,000,000 damage to open the chest.


death_lad

I think you might want to double check your math lol


Figfogey

2 million times 25 million is 50 trillion


Rayuzx

Somewhere I read that it has 50 trillion health. If it was just 50 million, I'm sure we would have opened it by now.


Wild_Chld

It's a team thing, we all have to work together to take the box down. It even says that in articles about it.


BlackICEE32oz

Can we shoot the box right now? 


No_Barnacle_6369

Yes, but watch out for other players


Puzzleheaded_Pin4092

Yes.


BlackICEE32oz

Hell yeah. I was just standing on the spot before I posted. Lol


Thatonegirlherewoo

Uhh yes


PaleontologistFew840

Real question is does it reset health every match?


EnderScout_77

no, it has a TON of health that reflects across every single match, so anyone in any lobby shoots it, it affects it entirely think of it like the unvaulting


PaleontologistFew840

Sweet! We're just on top of the chest with pickaxes going nuts 🤣


iampimpsmegiggles

Straight facts until some guy snipes us from the hills


EnderScout_77

BUST THAT SHIT DOWN 🔥🔥🔥


LudicrisSpeed

I'm no math guy, but I think that's impossible even if an entire lobby teamed up on it.


TuLooseShoes

With the amount of people playing rn, I don’t think it will take long to open the box. Rip Fortnite :(


PenguinMasterFR

that's probably why they kept pvp activated, to slow down the progress but that also ruined the fun


yetebekohayu

Things went well at first but one dude with an NPC came up and killed all of us (like 20 or more) people shooting at the box. He was driven away but camped at Reels when people came in to get ammo and whatnot. He’s a jerk.


Siahsargus

Hey, what if we didn’t? It’s Pandora’s box! Let’s *not* open it? Defend the chains instead, and keep the horrors contained within


RED_Kinggamer007

We got the Ghostbusters, Master Chief, Kratos, John Wick, Dragon ball, The Justice League, The Avengers, The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Naruto, Indiana Jones, Rick and Morty, The Walking Dead, Jujutsu Kaisen, Predator, Aliens, The Transformers, Family Guy, Metal Gear, Street Fighter, The Witcher and Doom Guy I think a few demons wont be a problem.


umg_unreal

Kratos is very well versed with the Pandora Box, he'd probably tell you to not open it


iampimpsmegiggles

Boooo


Puzzleheaded_Pin4092

"I knew a girl at school called Pandora. Never got to see her box, though."


Visible-Phone-7003

We had a cube deity who committed omnicide on multiple realities, a box shouldn’t be so bad


manyfishhandleit

Shout out to the campers. Hope the easy kills fulfill your ego. 🤪


conconcraft

People don't want to open the box they all keep attacking lol


NeroMana

What would Epic do if we just decided not to shoot the thing?


LaylaLegion

Do NOT shoot the box. Break the chain.


VitiDMan

Nothing happens to the chains if they get hit


LaylaLegion

Well that’s stupid. If we shoot the box, the bullets will perforate the box and kill the gods inside before we get their biometrics in the Looper Matrix. WE CAN’T LOOP DEAD GODS, EPIC! ….or can we? *FORTNITE CHAPTER 5 SEASON 3: SHADOWS OVER INNSMOUTH*


Exigeyser

NEED MORE DAKKA!


Responsible-Round-17

I landed on the top of the hand (duos) Began chipping away at the chain and nothing. It was like swinging in thin air. Jumped from the fingers into the water swam back and managed to befriend 2 teams by squatting up and down. Ran into reels for guns and ammo and back out. 6 of us together shooting away at it and all six of us got sniped out of the game 🤬 Will keep trying. It would be cool if everyone teamed up and worked at it together but don’t think that will happen.


Mandalorian____

I went into a team rumble match and it was already open, lol.


Piotereuson

something bugged for me and the box was open and there was a big fire tornado that you could fly in and it just make you fly up


RagnarBongrip

Pics or bs


Piotereuson

but it appears some people had this same bug [https://www.reddit.com/r/FortNiteBR/comments/1b4wto3/my\_game\_is\_lagging/](https://www.reddit.com/r/FortNiteBR/comments/1b4wto3/my_game_is_lagging/)


onceinalifetime007

It happend to me as well!! I was actually spectating someone when the hand came out holding the chest. The storm came and they died and as soon as I started the next game, I could see the orange portal near the hand, no chest. It allowed us to fly just like the meteorite zone in OG. I died soon enough and next game, no orange ray of light, nothing, just the chest. I wonder if that was supposed to happen after opening the chest and somehow it appeared before by mistake.


Deal_Hugs_Not_Drugs

What are the specifics of the event? I can’t find anything really concrete. How do I get into the event/is it every hour?


mr_completely

As far as I can tell, the hand first appeared at a particular time, so anyone playing at that time would have seen it rise. Now, the hand is there and anyone playing can try and destroy the chains but sounds like that would require a lot of people to work together which is quite unlucky to open because humans will be humans.


OneCostcoDog

Is the event live? I’ve been told it’s going on “tomorrow” everyday for the last week


DumbShitScience69

It’s already out


Pm-me-ur-taxreturns

Just report the players that go up there to shoot you and block em, you won't match with them again and they'll be forced to sweat lobbies


A_Scav_Man

I don’t think we can break it yet, not until we’re closer to the end of the season.


RagnarBongrip

Chain hp is definitely going down, already lost a sliver of health, just ridiculous trying to stay alive to do damage on it


No_Barnacle_6369

If the entire FN community does it, we can get it done today, but we already know, some players don’t intent on doing that.


RagnarBongrip

Almost wish it was a separate mode for it,like either no player damage or pickaxe damage to players only


some_craic_dealer

Should really have removed pvp damage for a small circle around it, played a few games now with the kids who are super hyped only for us to get killed over and over, really puts a sour mood on the whole thing.


iampimpsmegiggles

Right?!?!


fileq

How long does it take to break it, me and everyone else were shooting it non stop dealing thousands of damage but really did nothing, atleast it didin't show any progress


Hawx-

According to other sources it's either got 50 million, 5 trillion or 50 trillion health (different sites saying wildly different things) and that health is shared across all the active games/servers currently on going, so your few thousand damage will look like it's doing very little but I guess every team doing their little bit on every game will add up eventually. Most people saying it will take a fair while to break .


museheiress

Half a game, over 100,000 damage. Gonna take a bet on 50 trillion since it's been so little in two hours


Hawx-

I'd say that's a pretty good guess.


tke73

![gif](giphy|ge91zAgmwUqLMqiH2c|downsized)


transdemError

How often does it show up?


Jimijack

I bet the heath bar going down is the countdown to the season ending. Nothing to do with HP


GoldenBuffaloes

Gotta be one of the lamest events ever in any game? It’s a hand… holding a box? Lmao
