Best spots to land on Fortnite Chapter 5 map
With all new spots on the map and new recognizable favorites like Tilted Towers, it's hard to figure out where the best landing spots are. However, there are a few spots that I have been landing in this Chapter that seem to work out the best:
Reckless Railways
I love this new location not just for its cool design but because it has plenty of loot and is one of the best spots to land if you're looking to ride the train. Since this is one of the bigger train stations, you will see the train chugging on through the center of the spot, allowing for easy access to it and a chance to claim the loot on it.
Fencing Fields
This is another spot that I land out 90% of the time. It's an easy drop for almost any bus position and has more than enough loot to snatch up. It also happens to be a spot where you can collect a medallion, which may make it a bit more dangerous but well worth it for the medallion effect. You also have easy access to nearby locations, including the Underground HQ, which usually has weapon cases galore.
Hot Drops
If you aren't sure where to land, you can always land on a Hot Drop. Hot Drop spots are the locations on the map that appear in gold as the round starts. These locations may be more dangerous since more people are bound to land there, but there will also be drones you can shoot down with worthwhile loot inside. Plus, you can jump into the action a lot quicker.
Winterburg
If you're looking for a space spot to land away from dangerous situations, Winterburg is probably the spot for you. It is a little ice island away from all the other POIs, meaning fewer players are bound to drop there. This gives you time to loot the cabins around it and then take a zipline back onto the mainland when you're good and ready. It also has presents during the holiday season.
That's a better look at this chapter's map locations and some suggestions on where you might want to land. What do you think of the major map changes this season?
