Fortnite OG player finds how to pick up an item using Rift-To-Go
Popular Fortnite leaker and creator HYPEX shared their findings on Twitter/X with a clip showing how to execute the easy mantle trick.
“Why did no one tell me this was possible? Basically, you can mantle at the last second of the rift to cancel it and pick up the item you left.” HYPEX stated.
In order to execute the move, use your Rift-To-Go, and when the countdown timer hits 0.1 seconds simply just press your jump button in order to mantle and instantly cancel the rift.
It may take a few attempts to master the move, but after a few tries it should become natural and can prove useful for various reasons.
Fornite OG players soon flooded the comments to express how they were just as shocked to find out the trick as HYPE X.
“Thank you! I’ve been trying to find a way to pick up a dropped item but it never worked this season,” a player responded.
As another pleaded for Epic Games to not remove it: “Please don’t patch this!” With one calling it “Two million IQ.”
Another player wasn’t as lucky when they discovered a certain death mechanic in Fortnite OG at the worst possible time.
