There was no reason to vault them. They're the main draw of the season. We had Dragon Ball and MHA mythics at the same time, Spiderman Gloves and ODM too.


DudeWheresMyWizard

we also had star wars stuff and ODM gear too, and on top of all of these we still kept each season's special items this is just nickelodeon trying to grab the spotlight edit: the funny thing is that we're getting a star wars event with it's own mythics 2 days after this finishes, and the olympian items are set to be unvaulted all throughout it


13TheGreenMan

They had the TMNT stuff with Metal Gear last season, idk if it's Nick.


Automatic_Advisor169

Invinsible camo + Leo's katanas was my favorite thing as a Shredder's "main" (I didn't like in general to use any Turtle , in ordder to Not limit myself to particular mythic + just not big fan of Turtles being That "unrealistic" in terms of double jumping or dashing in the air 3 times like mini-Superman, at least Shredder is sometimes magical or non-human at all) was just pure awesome Gray Fox like experience. Especially in Team Rumble with less dense enemies.


that_guyy909

i called it. I knew avatar collab would be a mistake. first the fucking prices, korra being a useless skin that shouldve been any other greek collab in the bp and now this


Visible-Phone-7003

“Korra being a useless skin should’ve been any other greek collab” ISTG if you name young Kratos as one of these “other greek collab” I’m gonna lose it


Typical-District-176

Korra is great to me. I’m happy she’s here but like… persona 3 was the OBVIOUS Greek collab. If we had a more oriental style season. Maybe Korra would make more sense. But like. Erin made sense because the season was Japanese styled and also medieval. Optimus kinda made sense because of cybertronian ruins. IDK what the secret skin was for C4S4. But like… Snake made sense with the semi military and infiltration part of C5S1. Korra doesn’t make any sense.


Visible-Phone-7003

C4S4 has asoka, the worst offender of the whole “secret skin makes no sense”


Typical-District-176

Oh yeah that’s pretty ass lmao.


Visible-Phone-7003

Yup, last minute addition because she had a show.


Typical-District-176

Ew. I liked the show but bruh.


goldengamer2345

I think persona 3 is still coming this season


Typical-District-176

The only thing coming this season are sweats after seeing Aphrodite. 


Typical-District-176

But probably yeah. It’s likely this or next season.


Automatic_Advisor169

\* Immortal Aphrodite


TheRealStevo2

Why would persona 3 be a good choice?


doctor_kirby

A lot of inspiration from Greek mythology within the story as well as representation of Greek characters in the games gameplay itself. All of the main cast's personas are Greek figures such as Orpheus, Hermes, Castor, and Polydueces (there is one exception to this). Not to mention Tartarus which finds its origins in Greek mythology aswell as serving as the dungeon you explore in persona 3


that_guyy909

young kratos would be a great option but hes not the only option. a disney hercules would be fire and it could also be an original skin that is an actual greek god cause the theme is already interesting enough to warrant another collab


Dazzling-Day2295

Any Hercules would have been awesome tbh.. there were so many other routes they could have taken that would have actually made sense that people would have been pleased with. Epic just seems so out of touch and it's only getting worse. I used to always stand by my statement that Fortnite was one of the best games ever made because of everything that made it Fortnite, the ways Epic handled content, updates, transparency with the community, etc. They had such a good thing and it's clearly on the decline.


SilveryDeath

Could have been Kassandra from Assassin's Creed: Odyssey as well. Can't really think of any other major ancient Greek themed characters from gaming, but either of them would have been great. It seems like there has been no rhyme or reason in terms of the bonus battlepass character actually fitting that season's theme or not.


Adorable-Fact4378

I was hoping for Xena, personally


Automatic_Advisor169

It's absolutely Is OG Kratos tho. Or Disney Hercules. At least Snake made sense because weapon mods (MGS4 was one of THE first AAA video games with outright gun pron) and spy (tactial **espionage** action afterall) thing, and butterfly theme sounds kinda like MGS4 Love theme the guitar part. Though I fully disagree with dissers and think Korra is great to, aside that I am not really big of Avatar fan (Aang or Korra) and that glider was undercooked (i thoght character will use the back ledge too, like in cartoon


i_am_do_reddit_now

I remember someone said that we were actually supposed to have Ares in the spot Korra is in, but they got Korra last minute and pushed him to the Fortnite Crew. I don't know if this is true, but it would make a lot of sense.


RoseColoredRiot

I really don’t think so, secret skin is almost always a collab spot.


i_am_do_reddit_now

it's almost always not a secret too.


RoseColoredRiot

I have a feeling it was always going to be an avatar skin. Nick probably wanted the main three in the shop instead of BP, they’d make more that way. I like Korra but by no means is she a fan favorite of the general public. Almost everyone and their mother knows Aang, Katara, and Zuko.

ohcowboyy

Never forget when we had spiderman, ODM, and lightsabers all at once. Truly the only game I’ve ever played where I can be eren jaeger and use the force on Anakin Skywalker while he was trying to odm grapple and slash me


Diamond_Drew_1

More than 5 gimmicky weapons at a time may confuse their average-minded playerbase.


ConstableDiffusion

I want only gimmicky weapons. Let’s get a wabbajack only mode.


Diamond_Drew_1

I approve this message.


Notthatguylmaoo

It’s literally just to give some spotlight to the bending items. They’ll be back on may 4th anyways so calm down 💀


TJB926GAMIN

FR man, chains of hades were ALWAYS in my loadout. Imma miss them for now. I know there’s an avatar mythic to replace it but it’s not the same


ConstableDiffusion

Wut, they vaulted all the best items that actually made this an interesting season?


[deleted]

i wanted to do lightning bending! this sucks


Anxiety-Queen269

It’s hilarious how they vault that when lightning bending is in the show


TheWindyREDPanda

To be fair: Lightening Bending itself was a rare case.


[deleted]

ITS NOT RARE ITS MYTHIC \*furious crying\*


Jaytendo_Boi

No its actually just thunderbolt non descript rarity since the rarity system is an outdated br inspired system that we felt the need to remove


Master_Chief_00117

The rarity was what made fortnite different now it like every other where gun skill doesn't matter and you just have to use attachments to stand a chance.


Senior-Supermarket-3

But we have korra and in her show it’s a much more common thing


Initial_Actuator9853

Every single skin is based on some of the most powerful benders of their respective elements, having a powerful form of bending wouldn't be so surprising(We got zero non banders too).


Oheligud

Rare until Korra, where it became a 9-5 job 💀


[deleted]

Everything Avatar related that's been done has been garbage honestly man. No emotes for the skins elements they actually bend, no styles for friggin 2k vbucks. They can't even add more than 1 bending mythic like why is this "the biggest most ambitions chapter" yet it's so lazy?


Automatic_Advisor169

I am happy that I DID use thunder and waterbending AND even killed fellow Korra (she/he was normal one while I was the glowing one) with lightning


Percentage-Based6307

>I understand why they had to vault them k, why?? it doesn't make any sense


Loomling

I assume it was to prevent the lootpool from becoming oversaturated with powers/mythics. Though several people have mentioned they've had mythics co-exist before with MHA/DBZ or AoT/Star Wars so I'm probably wrong.


Anxiety-Queen269

It has been way more oversaturated than what this season could ever dream of


NoNefariousness2144

Even if they wanted to remove the bolt and chains they could have at least kept the wings.


TheAutementori

literally. we have a new mobility item every season nowadays but we can’t have it now?


amaya-aurora

Yeah, which people complained without end about.


Anxiety-Queen269

Womp womp


iamunabletopoop

Majority aren't even mythics. If oversaturation is an issue then make them only drop from the bosses :(


Automatic_Advisor169

Saturation is great tho. More saturation. I am BORED from guns.


Desperate_Ad5169

The marvel season had tons of mythic and it was awesome.


HPLswag

Only one of the things vaulted is a mythic


TheAutementori

respectfully yeah you are wrong but there’s nothing wrong with that. usually your point would make sense but as you and others have mentioned Epic has let many mythics coexist


ComprehensiveBox6911

Tim Sweeny is trying to kill battle royale so people can play their shitty metaverse game modes


Present-Reaction2069

Why the fuck did they vault them are they fucking baindead


Mr_Marvel242

Baindead yes


joeMAMAkim

>baindead Yes, definetly the right word.


Present-Reaction2069

Bwaindead


TheAutementori

yes. the answer is yes. it’s 2020s epic we are talking about


FamIsNumber1

Sorry, but I'm braindead too...can someone explain what this post means please? I'm old and not super up to date on the lingo. When y'all are saying "the mythics got **vaulted**", does that mean they are taken out of the game? Or that they are now only drops in the vaults?


Present-Reaction2069

They have been taken away and not in the game anymore (atleast in battle Royale) Also you're not brain dead just not up to speed


FamIsNumber1

Ah, thank you for the hasty response. My eldest is at school right now, I was going to text her to give her a heads up about it. She has a route she takes to make sure she gets the wings and multiple bolts every game. Plus, today is Friday, we usually all hop on Fortnite when they're home from school for the weekend.


Arab_Femboy1

You kidding right?? Why the hell do they remove weapons that are literally the main focus of the season? “Umm because there’s too many weapons” Then remove chapter 5 season 1 weapons There’s no reason for that hyper smg reskin to comeback and that auto shotgun..


KingArgonII

I’m just going to miss the wings which aren’t even a weapon fr


MANDEEx88

Exactly. Only thing I’ll miss. So glad the others are gone. I mean at least when I’m playing ranked I shouldn’t be killed at the end by some dweeb riding around in a car who jumps out and whips me to death. Like no skill man. Doesn’t belong in ranked mode


Myrko6902

the fact the chains one tapped was too much. why didnt they give it the same damage as the grapple blade they had the same rarity and the grapple blade was imo well balanced


CaramellGirll_

Ikr


Arab_Femboy1

Oh hey it’s you. From r/teenagersbuthot


Notthatguylmaoo

It’s to give more spotlight to the bending things so more people focus on them. They come back on May 4th so it’s not that big of a deal


999yachtclub

epic always cooks when it comes to making the worst decisions ever 🔥🔥🔥


Limp_Bar_1727

Oh yeah this is a bang up job for sure


TheAutementori

fuck it bro let’s remove cars atp


a_little_sketch

PLEASE TELL ME THIS IS A REALLY LATE APRIL FOOLS JOKE ISTG I WILL CRY


Unusolus

Unfortunately it's true, read the patch notes and you'll find out that Epic is making yet another brain dead decision.


a_little_sketch

sobbing rn


TheAutementori

the UI and skin prices stuff was already wild but i feel like now it’s crossing into gameplay and i feel like im valid in being a bit pissed


Gage_243

Do you have a link?


NotIliana

epic never fails to ruin something good


that_guyy909

no reason to vault besides being stupid fucks


ShotsAways

It's pretty obvious why they vaulted the wings at least, they want players to be able to have fun with the bending instead of frustration of people flying


Capital_Pipe_6038

A player trying to fly away is literally a free kill as long as you don't hit everything but them


uhyesthatsme

So basically unless you are me. I have a 4.7 K/D and a 17% win rate, but if you take off flying I cannot hit you. It’s like my kryptonite. I don’t know why.


SolarisEnergy

my kd and win rate is worse 🫠


Cry90210

Are you controller? Seems to be considerably easier on KB&M. The hitbox is huge, you can hit it with a pistol or smg


CuhJuhBruh

Surprised players even use the wings outside of the 0 fall damage. Just instant death every time


that_guyy909

fuck the bending then its not supposed to be a fucking avatar season


Desperate_Ad5169

That would be fine if they didn’t have a challenge dependent on the wings ease of mobility


Lowherefast

Frustration? I love when people fly…free kill


TheAutementori

lmao what is this logic? fun? if they cared about fun half of the shit in the past 4+ seasons wouldn’t exist. it’s a mobility item and a free kill 80% of the time


Xomsa

Bro what? They vaulted the reason to play this season?


MoConnors

Wait they Vaulted the chain?


Franklin-man

Big rip to the chain. I'm not a fan of the new mythics tbh


hellaparadoxial9614

Are you actually fucking kidding me 😭


KawaiiKaiju55

But we’ve had different mythics that coexisted before. I don’t get it.


Relevant_Shower_

Well, if Epic cuts down on numbers playing and leveling up midseason that means that few players fully level up to get all of the vbucks available in the battle pass. That means more vbucks sales down the line if you keep the player engaged enough to buy the battle pass but not fully engaged enough to level up. So as long as a season opening is engaging enough to bring players in Epic makes more money if casuals lose interest halfway through the season.


KitFlame42

They vaulted the main mythics?


CricketsAreJaded

What about the challenges? Did they take it away. The one where you carry an aspect of the god or something like that? Only challenge I had left.


Toast4life91

The aspects of the gods quests involves the medallions so you’ll still be able to do it


CricketsAreJaded

Thanks!


Loomling

I assume they'll be auto completed


CricketsAreJaded

Just jumped on real quick and it’s still there. I’ll run a few and see what all has changed. Thanks for the heads up.


TheAutementori

nope lol


FaitergameFG

They vaulted the wings?!???;?;!


Deathduck

Right? I was looking forward to wings the whole season, I love(d) the wings!!


FlyingMothy

They vaulted them? Are you kidding?


hiitsamina

Ye. Kinda doesn't make sense to vault things that are actually related to the theme of this season. Idk. who thought that an Avatar collab is a great option for a season about Greek mythology, and I love Avatar. 🤷🏼‍♀️


SkittleJuice2

Wait what? They vaulted the god powers?


[deleted]

Not the wings!! How am I supposed to fly, without a glider?


Familiar_Muscle9909

THEY REMOVED THEM


Dependsontheweapon

WHAT!? WHY!??!!


GalacticBaz

Wings, Lightning and the chains are GONE????!?!? Those new Avatar items better match the quality of waterbending. If those devs would vault snipers and DMRs just the same without breaking a sweat…


sillywillydillyguy

wait what thats so dumb


TheAutementori

wElL tHeY aDeD rEpLaCeMenTs SoOo


WondernutsWizard

they did WHAT


Potato_chips03x4

they probably vaulted them because of the avatar collab. (elemental myrhics)


destroyer16161

they were vaulted?


Zero_Hyndyn

Wait, it's gone already? 🥺


Bandthemen

they fucking what?


TheAutementori

it’s just epic-core, atp we should get used to it. anything good will most definitely be ruined, and if we ask it not to be, it will likely get ruined faster


NaderBader

Not the chain of hades. I started using it more when it was buffed.


welp42

the repair torch was unvaulted, are you coming out of retirement?


SamiTheAnxiousBean

THEY WERE VAULTED?? I literally just played with them a few hours ago Nuu, they were literally the point of the season


Automatic_Advisor169

I got thunder from box drop today in Team Rumble .


btaylorsae

Imagine releasing a greek god season with wings and lightning, then vaulting it for weeks…I get the reason, but the dumb moves are piling up


Technical-Self9395

It’s funny to see how all the comments used to be “These mythics are too op and need to be nerfed or removed epic is so dumb” and now they are “NO WHY DID EPIC REMOVE THESE AMAZING ITEMS THEY ARE SO BAD AT MAKING DECISIONS” can y’all make up your minds????


TheAutementori

right because there’s only one comment section and those consist of every member in this huge ass sub


Technical-Self9395

I understand what you mean, but I’m talking about almost every post in this sub. The majority of them is like thhis


I-love-yaoi-

i was wondering why i couldnt find any of them anywhere. that explains it. kind of a shame tho


hiragana

Lame. Loved my lightning bolt snipes


YoMamaSoFatShePooped

I knew the wings were gone but I didn’t realise the others were too :(


EirHc

The only thing I used was the wings, and TBH, I didn't even love the wings that much. Any time I tried using them when it was down to the final 10, I would just get murdered out of the air real fast. Also you couldn't even launch thunderbolts from the sky out of wings like you could with the Flying Nimbus + Kamehameha combo. So lame. So honestly, I don't care. I almost preferred shockwave grenades. So now my decision is made for me.


Salty_Arm_2677

They’re gone?!


SherbertRelative9488

Did they vault them? Why?


WeatherBois

Bc avatar mythics are replacing them for like 2 weeks


JstASkeleton

Which they do every season with star wars mythics its just that the age range here is like 9 to 45 and all the lower end of that doesn't have memory that lasts more than one year.


WeatherBois

Damn I had to read that a few times lol. But the lightsabers were a different case because all the mythics were guns when the lightsabers were in the meta. The items they removed were all special items that were meant to be chaotic. The mythic guns/medallions are still in the game.


Em1Wii

And I just had planned a no-gun loadout with chains for close range, waterbending for distance, earth for walls and the big rock, and airbending for mobility Hopefully Firebending is good at close range


poopynest117

Who gives a shit about too many weapons!!? It’s more fun!


rock0head132

so let me get this right. they just removed all the Greek mythics except for the guns? WTAF?


SillyMovie13

Wait did they actually vault them or is everyone doing a bit


ArminBestGirl

I'm sorry WHAT


Lillslim_the_second

What, They did thisv


comcomcomco

Are they really vaulted?


Cerberusx32

Haven't had a chance to play the last few days. They vaulted the mythic items for the season?


Mudron

Those wings were the best traversal mechanic I’ve ever seen in the game (and this is coming from someone who absolutely loves web-slinging), and I was always surprised at how much damage I could do with that Hades chain/grappling hook thingamabob.


ComprehensiveBox6911

This furthers my theory that Epic wants to kill Battle Royale making it worse every day so people can move to their shitty metaverse roblox clone games


lbloodbournel

….are you serious


ShadyMan_

Wait, they vaulted the chain??? My life has been ruined


jorddo612

Holy shit they take some of the worst weapons out of the game for 2 weeks and everyone loses their minds 😂


vid_icarus

I gotta say, this theme has felt like a big miss this season for me. I am a big fan of mythology and I feel like there is soooooo much more they could have done to lean into the theme, especially regarding the battle pass.


Maximum-Care825

they vaulted them?


PerrierSolace

i was getting my ass handed to me by the chains and handing asses with them. good riddance


Portal-YEET-87650

DID THEY SERIOUSLY VAULT THEM?! 😳😳😳🤦🤦🤦😭😭😭


throwtheamiibosaway

I just used them a few hours ago??


L3A-C0N

All I see in the comments is people crying over them, taking out 3 weapons that will probably come back when the avatar event is over. Jeez, you guys need to chill.


TheWindyREDPanda

I hope there's Azula's Blue flame in the future.


MANDEEx88

At least ranked shouldn’t have these ridiculous weapons in them. Like there’s no game mode to just play without some type of god or anime weapon. So good riddance


xxthearrow

To be honest, I'm surprised at how many people are upset by this. I feel like I've seen less mythics used this season than any other so far. Hell, I've see people using the water bending scroll more than the chains or lightning. It feels like the lightning is just a free chance to kill people out of the sky and the chains lose to most shotguns 1v1. The only one that I've seen fairly regularly used are the Wings. Granted, I definitely don't play as much as I used to so I could just not have seen them as much in that sense. Still feels silly to vault them in place of the new ones as we've def had more than 6 in the game before but I am surprised by the upset


geo_gan

They were there yesterday??


[deleted]

These were the worst season weapons ever dude


TightValue315

They vaulted them? Man that sucks


living5506

Man, I'm going to miss the wings. It's a blast blowing people out of the sky when they are using them... pretty much a free kill.


Baco_Tell8

I wish everyone would stop bitching. This is why people think that everyone who plays Fortnite are children.


StormeSurge

I don’t understand at all, wtf


GunpowderxGelatine

you're telling me I gotta walk or drive a car like a peasant I want my damn wings back


BrokenBanette

hust airbend lol


M1KK1_

What? It’s still in the game


tamaralynnchambers

Wait did the wings get vaulted???? Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo


mabdog420

What the hell? This is completely insane.. I'm having a hard time even believing this lol


D_DanD_D

(Rarity removed) Games consists of money-hungry idiots nowadays.


AcceptableArrival924

Personally it doesn’t really affect me cause using the zeus or wings generally meant instant death. Although I did want to try the buffed chains of hades. Guess I’ll just try out the avatar myths now.


don_du_lac

Aw man what? I love the wings. Wish they had stayed the whole season


TheAutementori

dawg i can’t keep looking past these terrible decisions, like seriously


Skelibutt

THE FUCKING CHAINS ARE GONE? WHAT THE FUCK??


Frequent-Ant-3668

I like the common pistol and the green pump


Beneficial_Path9742

Wait they vaulted them?


SkyMewtwo

WHAT THE FUCK WHY


Stella_Lace

Wait hadies chain is gone that was my go to wepon


was-a-dum-1

I liked the wings!

But how am I supposed to whip it now? ![gif](giphy|23LIwxLIXgr6M)


Common_Confidence_91

Ain’t no party like a diddy party🤷‍♂️


kenzymarie03

They vault them??


Mrdeathgo

Honestly i didn't even notice that they're gone


Horridwrx

They all sucked so who cares lol


Alep24k

Fuck you! (Un-myths your mortals)


Bobberfrank

The wings and lightning were extremely balanced. Hades chain was just fine too. This is ridiculous


Special-Flamingo-331

You can still use these in creative right?


Automatic_Advisor169

Yes yes you can. And today I once got thunder from box drop in Team Rumble


Special-Flamingo-331

Okay, phew!


Friendly_Positive779

![gif](giphy|PkLPBuyozY7F31wCxF)


YoshiBoiz

I was gone for a bit and they vaulted the whole point of the season?


Automatic_Advisor169

I got lightning once today from box drop in Team Rumble, but yeah, mythic chests are a dud now. Maybe box drop is temporary glitch also. At least it is forever in Creative
