Fortnite Chapter 3 added many features to surprise long-time players and entertain new ones. One of those is the focus on stealth gameplay. Now, anyone who’s played Fortnite knows that the most stealth you see is hiding behind any building you manage to throw up. However, they’ve added tall grass into the game. There’s even a new Fortnite challenge to hide in tall grass for 10 seconds. If you want to participate in the challenge and try out some stealth moves, then you should get to searching for this new environmental feature.
Hide in Tall Grass in Fortnite
The map isn’t just flipped in Fortnite. There are several additions that Chapter 3 brought in that’s it hard to keep up. Players are enjoying Winterfest, playing around with Spider-Man and all his features, and even sliding around the map.
There are also some changes to the environment: tall grass. Tall grass isn’t like the cornfields or any other environment you can break for resources. This grass is actually a part of the map. So, you can’t destroy it. Instead, you can take advantage of the fact that it obscures you somewhat from sight. In fact, it’s a new challenge in Fortnite to hide in tall grass for 10 seconds. Nailing this challenge will give you 25K XP. So, it’s certainly worth trying out.
There’s not much to it either. To accomplish this, simply walk into tall grass and crouch down. Make sure you’re far enough in so that you’re hidden. Afterward, just stay there for 10 seconds and you’ve completed the challenge.
Besides the challenge, if used properly, tall grass can really help in a game. It can give you some space to heal up if you don’t have enough resources to build anything. This can also help you sneak up on unsuspecting enemies.
How to Find Tall Grass in Fortnite
Looking at the map, it’s obvious that tall grass won’t be on the snowy side. So, you’ll have to stick to the eastern portion of the map for now.
There are a few places you can search. For instance, try around Sanctuary. The area should have some tall grass. Also, go south or northwest of The Daily Bugle and there should be some patches.
