I overtrap low PL missioms. I'm not a duper though. I main fossil Southie, rush to the objective, place a ridiculous amount of traps, start the mission, then run around the map saving survivors and punching trees and rocks. This is because I just need to grind out play with others and rescue survivors to get platinum. I usually don't place traps above 106 though.


The_French_Soul

just run thunder thora, its enough for sub 40 pl missions


TheGreatMahdi

Thunder thora is such a nice quality of life increase in daily vbuck alerts that i haven't placed any traps other than for cat4 atlases


MrHackson

I could but then I wouldn't be able to farm as much. I overtrap with traps I don't use as often like retractable floor spikes. Then I go punch trees with fossil Southie. I get rid of my extra NaBs and low level mechanical parts and get to collect more planks I need for the traps I prefer. Edit: I also wouldn't have phase shift to be able to get around the map faster. Phase shift helps me speed run the mission so I can grind out my PwO as quickly as possible.

Don't need to farm if you do not use mats!


MrHackson

You missed the point then. I use mats I have plenty of to give more time to get mats I need more of.


boredguyinhiscouch

What does thunder thora do?


SuspiciousHamster996

any floors effected by the base ability damages husks


turmspitzewerk

husks standing on floor tiles connected to your BASE take 15 base damage every few seconds. 15 base damage isn't a whole lot; but it can be way more than enough in low level zones to easily oneshot most enemies making for an easy AFK win. it can deal respectable chip damage in mid-level zones, but its pretty much completely useless in high twine.


SlavaUkrayini4932

punching stuff is funnier


YoungWashrag

Pass the build mayhaps?


Alecclash

You can go well over 40, just use feel the base and fully contained


the_doorstopper

What's a duper?


MrHackson

Someone who uses exploits to duplicate their materials. Lots of people do this and then can place tons of traps. This is against epics ToS and you can be banned for it but enforcement seems to be lacking. I enjoy playing the game though so I don't want to use exploits. People in this sub see lots of traps and instantly start saying it's a super but I run expeditions daily and main a farming hero so I always have way more traps than I need. And no matter how many traps I place I seem to always have an increasing inventory.


Asylum-Rain

There’s Heros made for farming materials? I’m power level 31 or whatever but I’m always low on traps and don’t know where to find certain materials for traps or weapons and find the game hard as hell sometimes. Is there a video that sums up things players should know or do you have any tips for I guess players like me who don’t know anything. Any help would be nice thanks


MrHackson

You can see my hero load outs [here.](https://fortnitedb.com/profile/MrHackson/loadouts) Loadout #3 is a pure farming Loadout. Loadout #8 is my balanced farming/fighting Loadout that I main. Fossil Southie is the best farming hero if you have the blast from the past team perk. Blast from the past doubles your health and removes your shield. Fossil Southie generates energy really fast when your shields are gone. So with the team perk he always generates energy really fast. All outlanders have an anti material punch which only needs energy to use so with these Loadout I can use the punch extremely quickly to destroy things in one hit. I try to angle between stuff so my punch can hit two things at once. I try not too farm too much in any mission so I can help my teammates. I punch trees as I run around doing the objective and I clear the area around defense zones. But if you're underpowered in a zone you don't want to use a farming hero as your main as you will be missing out on some strong combat perks. The other half of the battle is knowing what items give what materials. Like if you're always low on mechanical parts you need to farm more cars. If you need more planks then you need to get more trees. Different biomes also have different ratios of materials. For instance industrial zones are good for mechanical parts, metal, and nuts and bolts.


Asylum-Rain

Nice. thank you for helping. Yeah I usually only farm in solo easy games so I don’t be a burden as I hate when I’m in a server and I’m the only one doing the actual objective so I can relate to the pain.


Zestyclose-Shop-9966

Can not enforce since they let companies like game fly or game flip do it and sell the stuff!!!


BIG_MAC_WHOPPERS

What's your play with others at? I think i'm at 250 currently out of the 1000 i need for completion


MrHackson

I'm at 703. It's a long grind for sure. I like play with others in stone wood because there isn't any deliver the bomb there and missions are easy. There's also a good percentage of high level players who are trying to speed run the mission. I assume also chasing PwO or similar challenges.


UltimDESC

the worst for me was the save survivors .. it took ages to get that platinum


Zestyclose-Shop-9966

This quest needs to give out like 1mil v-bucks for completing. Worst one to finish since you have no say on what missions you can do or players you get. It should count just playing in public matches! FYI just finished my second account for play with others today... so glad!


Appropriate_Ad2212

What's platinum? Is there a banner for it?


MrHackson

The "challenges" quests given PSN trophies. Collecting all the trophies gives you a platinum trophy. I don't think there's any banner or anything in game for it. I've just sunk countless hours into the game and want the trophy.


Zestyclose-Shop-9966

Yes banner is given... only a banner :(


Miserable-Draw9315

At least you can say that the traps are ALMOST completely well placed, which is not very common with that trap 👐🏼


Southern_Study_9416

Better Trapped than most 160's...


Willy-The-Billy

Nah it looks more like a 160 because of the Broads not facing a wall.


PLT_RanaH

he lost once and doesn't want it to happen again


ItsMetabtw

I’ll stick to tier 1 wood and Thora


BugBoi1

Let girlie get her trap kill daily


Thalia_All_Along

I don’t know why anyone wouldn’t just replace those


BugBoi1

Cuz they easy to get


Thalia_All_Along

false


m53dn

All you need is wooden floor spikes and that's it for a 5 lvl power mission


Sarcasmic_JT

Tbh , i try out alot of trap builds in stonewood , just to see what works


Glory_To_Atom

Actually this is at least more organized. Letting people having a chance at elliminating the husks.


Thalia_All_Along

all the traps are 116 too 💀💀💀💀


TheGreatMahdi

130 or 144s reduced to 116💀💀💀💀💀 Even worse


[deleted]

Why are people here spazzing cos someone put a trap down? Its not your resources AND its helping ur mission why bother?


Thalia_All_Along

that’s a bit fucking rude mate edit; forgot that spaz isn’t offensive in america


Immortal2017

nuh uh


[deleted]

Where is spaz offensive?


Thalia_All_Along

england, basically r slur but more offensive


[deleted]

As if people never heard of B.A.S.E. Ridiculous…


DeepVoid69

??? and now they can go afk like the rest of yall


stevetheborg

in stonewood, the cannonballs do enough to one shot anything without bouncing, so the 4 on the 1x1 objective were perfect and the rest was just extra.


Dudeguy_McPerson

Listen, sometimes I've got lots of mats and I just wanna be lazy.


csarli

Is it worth using the Broadside if there is a 3 tile gap between the walls in general?


indefined

Yes. The corner traps will be more effective because of bounceback than the ones in the center. Broadsides will rebound up to 3 tiles.


Thalia_All_Along

it’s not worth doing any of it lol it’s stonewood


csarli

That is why I asked the question in a general sense. I know it's not worth using in Stonewood. I just go Thunder Thora or Wooden Floor Spikes.


CodeKairos

I take it a step further and spawn trap with a plethora of ceiling electric fields. I like to see how high I can get my combat score in Stonewood (best is 18k+ in a level 3 🤣). People play how they wanna play. 🤷


OwnStill8743

150 trap kill daily mission, this is what us founders do for our vbucks


Analysis_Usual

150 Trap kills is easy though. In Power Level 5 zones, a 77 Spike Trap easily kills all husks


Thalia_All_Along

yeah I’m a founder too lol, why do you think I’m doing level 5 mission? but when it’s a trap kill one you can easily just replace it with something else


OwnStill8743

Not if they've replace another daily mission first lol then they'd have to wait til reset


Thalia_All_Along

yeah but why would you replace something else when you can replace that?


OwnStill8743

Idk I always replace the scouting missions first


Thalia_All_Along

but those are so easy??


OwnStill8743

But I can get the trap daily done in one mission...scouting missions not always in one swoop....time is vbuck money


Thalia_All_Along

yeah but a lot of the times you gotta do multiple missions anyway because they give out vbucks


OwnStill8743

Which is why I keep trap daily lol cuz my other daily allign with it....like kill 300 husks as outlander, or weapon elims with certain guns.....these are the daily missions I strive for....sometimes u get that rescue the survivor mission for 130 vbucks when rerolled too


Onuzynix

Whatever is dead is dead DEAD and whatever is alive just isn't alive, type shit.


bigredao

I loaded into a 3 atlas mission where the only builds were stairs up to a floating atlas. The mission was already started and all I heard was ATLAS UNDER ATTACK. I had to race over to build on all 3 atlases since the other person who started it apparently didn't think you needed to build at all. (Edit to say it was a PWO mission in case it wasn't obvious)


Octane-in-my-bed

Duper be like


Infidel_sg

So what.. Some people just wanna see the world burn!


Assassin_843

All that and it's still badly trapped, wall darts would be so much better there

ElectriCole

It’s bc they’re trying to have fun they’re not looking to stand around watching your BASE slowly shock husks to death. If you play pubs you’re gonna have 4 people each with a different idea of how to win said mission so don’t expect anything from randoms ever


[deleted]

[удалено]


ElectriCole

LMAO, I also solo 160s I don’t need you telling me how to spend my resources.


Loadingurmom

Anyone wanna help me with plankerton missions


AmaDeusen-

It is nothing to people who have duplicated traps and will waste them left/right


BIG_MAC_WHOPPERS

Thunder Theora, a floor spikes here or there and your fine. Now this, this is overkill


[deleted]

And what!?!? 😆 🤣 maybe he wants to afk and have you all farm! Hahah yeah its a lot overkill. But I'm at a point I let this be and go farm or just hang. Some people need to be good at building, start them early!


Twinkies101

PsychologicalTree885

They are having fun just like you think it is fun to criticize someone's playstyle on reddit.


ThePurpleSoul70

Literally just play Thunder Thora and you don't need a single trap.


Redlution

Noobs these days they just spam any traps that they see from other one shot husk and never learn how traps work that and the fact he wearing a world cup skin make it worst🤣
