The new season also added plenty of stuff in between those new places, most notably the bunkers littering the map that contain three rare chests, a half-dozen weapon cases, and a mod bench.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">These changes mean most of our favorite landing spots from Season 1 aren&#8217;t ideal anymore, but that&#8217;s okay&#8211;we&#8217;ve found some new ones. Read on for the best places to land in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2, with helpful map images to guide you.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"ad-wrap ad-wrap-leader_middle\" data-ad-event=\"pageLoad-2\">\n<div class=\"image-gallery__list-item-content typography-format flexbox-flex-even\">\n<figure>\n<div class=\"js-image-gallery__item-viewport\">\n<div class=\"js-image-gallery__image-placeholder image-gallery__image-wrapper\">      <img class=\"image-gallery__list-image\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gamespot.com\/a\/uploads\/scale_super\/1757\/17577455\/4284130-fortnitechapter5season2mapclassycourtsclubhouse.jpg\" alt=\"The main clubhouse at Classy Courts\" style=\"display:inline;\" width=\"500px\">     <\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<h3 class=\"image-gallery__list-title\">The main clubhouse at Classy Courts<\/h3>\n<div class=\"image-gallery__list-deck\">\n<p>Classy Courts is by far my favorite returning location from Season 1, but it&#8217;s slightly different now&#8211;all those coolers with the fish were removed from the tennis courts, removing one of the main reasons to drop directly onto the actual courts. With that change, the clubhouse is the best place to land&#8211;you&#8217;ll have plenty of loot for the squad, there are two slurp kegs and two slap kegs in the back, and, most importantly, you&#8217;ll actually have cover.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"image-gallery__list-item-content typography-format flexbox-flex-even\">\n<figure>\n<div class=\"js-image-gallery__item-viewport\">\n<div class=\"js-image-gallery__image-placeholder image-gallery__image-placeholder\">      <img class=\"image-gallery__list-image\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gamespot.com\/a\/uploads\/scale_super\/1757\/17577455\/4284129-fortnitechapter5season2mapclassycourtstrainstation.jpg\" alt=\"Alternative: the nearby train station\" width=\"500px\">     <\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<h3 class=\"image-gallery__list-title\">Alternative: the nearby train station<\/h3>\n<div class=\"image-gallery__list-deck\">\n<p>The train station just southwest of Classy Courts has a similar amount of loot as the clubhouse, plus a vending machine and a mission board (whatever the new mission things are called), and you&#8217;ll be a little further from the action if things are particularly spicy.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"image-gallery__list-item-content typography-format flexbox-flex-even\">\n<figure>\n<div class=\"js-image-gallery__item-viewport\">\n<div class=\"js-image-gallery__image-placeholder image-gallery__image-placeholder\">      <img class=\"image-gallery__list-image\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gamespot.com\/a\/uploads\/scale_super\/1757\/17577455\/4284128-fortnitechapter5season2mapsbrawlerbattlerground.jpg\" alt=\"On the boss trigger at Brawler's Battleground\" width=\"500px\">     <\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<h3 class=\"image-gallery__list-title\">On the boss trigger at Brawler&#8217;s Battleground<\/h3>\n<div class=\"image-gallery__list-deck\">\n<p>I&#8217;ve gotten fond of triggering the boss fights as soon as possible at any of the big new locations that have them&#8211;not to fight them immediately, but rather to add a chaotic wild card to the equation right off the bat. But it&#8217;s a more effective tactic at Brawler&#8217;s Battleground than the other spots because the fight happens right in the open in the middle of the location (unlike at Underworld or Mount Olympus), and all the NPC enemies have guns (unlike the wolves at the Grim Gate). This move will absolutely get you killed sometimes, but there&#8217;s a good chance you&#8217;ll have a wild ride as long as you focus on the real players and don&#8217;t fall for your own trick.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"image-gallery__list-item-content typography-format flexbox-flex-even\">\n<figure>\n<div class=\"js-image-gallery__item-viewport\">\n<div class=\"js-image-gallery__image-placeholder image-gallery__image-placeholder\">      <img class=\"image-gallery__list-image\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gamespot.com\/a\/uploads\/scale_super\/1757\/17577455\/4284127-fortnitechapter5season2mapsbrawlerbattlergroundsmallhouse.jpg\" alt=\"Alternative: the little house down the hill to the west\" width=\"500px\">     <\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<h3 class=\"image-gallery__list-title\">Alternative: the little house down the hill to the west<\/h3>\n<div class=\"image-gallery__list-deck\">\n<p>Ares is a popular target because his mythic Warforged AR is just as dope as Nisha&#8217;s win-button of a gun was last season. If it&#8217;s just too much, there&#8217;s a house to the west, down a steep dropoff that&#8217;s worked fairly well for me as a refuge from the madness of Brawler&#8217;s Battleground. And if you go further west from here, you&#8217;ll enter this season&#8217;s biggest dead zone. Speaking of which&#8230;<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"image-gallery__list-item-content typography-format flexbox-flex-even\">\n<figure>\n<div class=\"js-image-gallery__item-viewport\">\n<div class=\"js-image-gallery__image-placeholder image-gallery__image-placeholder\">      <img class=\"image-gallery__list-image\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gamespot.com\/a\/uploads\/scale_super\/1757\/17577455\/4284126-fortnitechapter5season2mapsdropspots.jpg\" alt=\"Anywhere in the big stretch of coast between Brawler's Battleground and Snooty Shores\" width=\"500px\">     <\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<h3 class=\"image-gallery__list-title\">Anywhere in the big stretch of coast between Brawler&#8217;s Battleground and Snooty Shores<\/h3>\n<div class=\"image-gallery__list-deck\">\n<p>Brawlers&#8217; Battleground, Fencing Fields and Snooty Shores form a triangle that contains three large landmark locations, each of which has enough stuff to outfit a full squad. And unless the storm circle pushes everyone to this part of the map, it&#8217;s usually pretty dead because, well, it&#8217;s a boring area. If you want a peaceful landing, this is where you should look. As a bonus, the hireable Aphrodite NPC lives at the restaurant by the train station, and she&#8217;s one of those who will periodically heal you with Chug Splashes. Plus, the island mansion&#8211;just a zipline away from the restaurant&#8211;has a vault in it.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"image-gallery__list-item-content typography-format flexbox-flex-even\">\n<figure>\n<div class=\"js-image-gallery__item-viewport\">\n<div class=\"js-image-gallery__image-placeholder image-gallery__image-placeholder\">      <img class=\"image-gallery__list-image\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gamespot.com\/a\/uploads\/scale_super\/1757\/17577455\/4284125-fortnitechapter5season2mapslavishlair.jpg\" alt=\"Lavish Lair parking lot\" width=\"500px\">     <\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<h3 class=\"image-gallery__list-title\">Lavish Lair parking lot<\/h3>\n<div class=\"image-gallery__list-deck\">\n<p>Without the anthropomorphic tiger and his mythic shotgun, Lavish Lair is a lot more chill this season. But the NPC Artemis, who periodically pings enemy players if you hire her, lives in the parking lot now. That means that you frequently won&#8217;t be the only one after her&#8211;she seems to be a fairly common target for landings. But if you get her first, those pings can turn the tide of any battle you find yourself in&#8211;and she&#8217;s one of only two current hireable NPCs that can do that.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"image-gallery__list-item-content typography-format flexbox-flex-even\">\n<figure>\n<div class=\"js-image-gallery__item-viewport\">\n<div class=\"js-image-gallery__image-placeholder image-gallery__image-placeholder\">      <img class=\"image-gallery__list-image\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gamespot.com\/a\/uploads\/scale_super\/1757\/17577455\/4284124-fortnitechapter5season2mapslavishlairtrainstation.jpg\" alt=\"Alternative: the train station up the hill\" width=\"500px\">     <\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<h3 class=\"image-gallery__list-title\">Alternative: the train station up the hill<\/h3>\n<div class=\"image-gallery__list-deck\">\n<p>To the south of Lavish Lair is a train station that I accidentally ended up at so many times that it ended up being one of my favorite in-between places&#8211;and it hosts anNPC who drops a purple-quality weapon, plus there&#8217;s a guaranteed legendary chest in its mini-vault. If somebody&#8217;s gonna beat you to Artemis, this is a great backup spot.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"image-gallery__list-item-content typography-format flexbox-flex-even\">\n<figure>\n<div class=\"js-image-gallery__item-viewport\">\n<div class=\"js-image-gallery__image-placeholder image-gallery__image-placeholder\">      <img class=\"image-gallery__list-image\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gamespot.com\/a\/uploads\/scale_super\/1757\/17577455\/4284123-fortnitechapter5season2mapsdronefactory.jpg\" alt=\"The old drone factory\" width=\"500px\">     <\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<h3 class=\"image-gallery__list-title\">The old drone factory<\/h3>\n<div class=\"image-gallery__list-deck\">\n<p>I still love Pleasant Piazza and Fencing Fields, but both of those spots are &#8220;play it by ear&#8221; places. By that I mean, when you drop at one of those places it&#8217;s best to choose your landing spot based on the situation at hand, rather than going to the same place every time. But right smack between these two locations is that drone factory. It&#8217;s not nearly as good of a spot as it was when the Underground base was across the street, but that change has turned an unusually popular drop spot into a totally deserted one. But the drone building itself is still heavy with loot, and it spawns loot drones, which are guaranteed to drop both a weapon and health or shields, every single match. It&#8217;s reliable.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"image-gallery__list-item-content typography-format flexbox-flex-even\">\n<figure>\n<div class=\"js-image-gallery__item-viewport\">\n<div class=\"js-image-gallery__image-placeholder image-gallery__image-placeholder\">      <img class=\"image-gallery__list-image\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gamespot.com\/a\/uploads\/scale_super\/1757\/17577455\/4284122-fortnitechapter5season2mapsmarigold.jpg\" alt=\"The Marigold\" width=\"500px\">     <\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<h3 class=\"image-gallery__list-title\">The Marigold<\/h3>\n<div class=\"image-gallery__list-deck\">\n<p>This yacht anchored off the western side of the island is secluded from everything else, has enough loot sources, and is home to an NPC (Brutus) who sells purple-quality Frenzy Shotguns. If opponents land with you you&#8217;ll be in a fight super quickly, but those fights will be more contained than they would be at a location on land, because it&#8217;s tough to run and hide here without leaving the place entirely.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"image-gallery__list-item-content typography-format flexbox-flex-even\">\n<figure>\n<div class=\"js-image-gallery__item-viewport\">\n<div class=\"js-image-gallery__image-placeholder image-gallery__image-placeholder\">      <img class=\"image-gallery__list-image\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gamespot.com\/a\/uploads\/scale_super\/1757\/17577455\/4284121-fortnitechapter5season2mapssmalloutpost.jpg\" alt=\"The small outpost between Reckless Railways and Mount Olympus\" width=\"500px\">     <\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<h3 class=\"image-gallery__list-title\">The small outpost between Reckless Railways and Mount Olympus<\/h3>\n<div class=\"image-gallery__list-deck\">\n<p>Another little crossroads-type of spot, this small outpost doesn&#8217;t have enough going on to support a full, four-person squad, but what it lacks in loot quantity it makes up for in amenities. To the north is a storm forecast tower, with its NPC that drops a guaranteed purple-quality rifle, and right next to the outpost to the south is a bunker that you can loot when it opens&#8211;or ambush other players when they inevitably pop in from Mount Olympus.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>NoxPlayer is a free Android emulator for playing mobile games on PC and Mac, supporting Android 5, 7, 8, and 9, and compatible with Intel, AMD, and Apple processors.
