Fortnite Chapter 6 balance update nerfs fan-favorite mobility item
A Fortnite Chapter 6 balance update had nerfed the Void Oni Mask and buffed weapons such as the Oni Shotgun.
Fortnite Chapter 6 introduced a new mobility item to the battle royale, theVoid Oni Mask, which players can use to teleport across a fair distance.
While many enjoyed this mobility boost, others thought the travel distance it provided spanned too far. Its travel speed served as another point of contention, with some players arguing the Void Oni Mask felt too overpowered.
