Forecast, Bush Warrior, and 4 other Augments that provide a lot of utility in Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 1

5) Splash Medic

Much like the Chug Gunner Augment, Splash Medic allows players to heal themselves by spamming Chug Splashes. After taking the Augment, players will find more Chug Splashes in every container they open. It won't take long to secure a full stack of the item during a match.

Since they can be found in large volumes, players can rely on them for healing. Furthermore, since they have an AOE effect, the entire squad can be healed using them. However, this Augment is only worthwhile if Chug Gunner hasn't been selected.

4) Bush Warrior

While some would say bush camping is dead, that's far from the truth. In Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 1, the number of bushes and leaf piles on the map has increased exponentially. Players can use them to hide in and heal themselves if needed or wait until an opponent gets close enough to ambush them.

Using the Bush Warrior Augment, bush camping can be taken to new levels. Players can regenerate health and partial shields while hiding in the bush. This will allow them to cut down on the use of other utility items that provide the same benefits.

3) Chug Gunner

Chug Gunner is rare, but it's one of the most useful Augments in Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 1. Upon selecting it, the player will receive a Chug Cannon. While it will require two inventory slots to function, it's well worth keeping the item.

When playing in a team, the item can be used to heal all teammates (HP and Shields). While the item does have a cooldown timer, with ammo being unlimited, Chug Cannon will provide support throughout the match. The more players on the team that have this item, the harder it will be to eliminate the squad.

2) Storm Mark

Although Storm Mark Augment is not as powerful as Forecast, it does have high utility in Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 1. Similar to how capturing a Capture Point reveals opponents in the surrounding area, this Augment does the same. Once a new Storm Circle has been formed, players can ping the area to highlight nearby enemies for a short duration.

While fighting in urban areas, this Augment can be used to locate hidden opponents or any would-be ambushers. It is also useful during the end-game phase of matches. Since opponents tend to hide until the last moment before springing an attack, this makes it easier to spot them.

1) Forecast

Forecast is an extremely nifty Augment in Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 1. When selected, it reveals every Storm Circle to the player until the match ends. Although this information is not relayed automatically to the entire team, players who have it can convey the same manually.

Having this Augment selected during a match is very helpful. It allows players to plan out their route of rotation and get to the next safe zone well in advance. With a bit of luck, they will be able to lock down the area and set up a defensive perimeter to hold their ground.
