Eric Williamson, Design Lead for Fortnite at Epic Games, commented on a Reddit post that was suggesting some changes that could be made to the Bush to make it a more viable item. The Reddit user, \u2018RhysWindu,\u2019 proposed that the Bush could be made to protect the user from the first shot that an enemy player might take at it, which would make the item a lot more useful. Williamson responded by saying that this idea was one of several that had been discussed by the developers: \u201cWe\u2019ve been looking at ways to potentially improve the Bush\u2019s effectiveness. This is an option that\u2019s been discussed a few times.\u201d He went on to further detail several other changes that the team has been looking at as potential improvements, such as having multiple charges, being auto-enabled while it\u2019s in the inventory so it can\u2019t be shot off, and reducing the leaves that block the user\u2019s view. In terms of when players can expect one or more of these potential improvements to be implemented, Williamson did not offer a time table: \u201cNo adjustments in the next update, but it\u2019s something we\u2019ll be reviewing.\u201d At least the Design Lead is acknowledging that Epic are aware that the Bush is essentially a pointless and useless item in many Fortnite players\u2019 eyes and fundamental adjustments are needed to make it better. In its current state, the cons heavily outweigh the pros when it comes to using the item. Having it equipped offers no physical protection, can annoyingly hinder the user\u2019s field of view when aiming down sights, and takes up a valuable spot in the inventory. As for the benefits? It can sometimes come in handy when camouflaging against nearby opponents and it\u2019s good for producing funny in-game content, that\u2019s pretty much it. While these proposed changes do offer hope for the Bush, it also begs the question as to why Epic have decided to keep the Legendary item in the game for this long when it has never been consistently used and similarly underused items have been vaulted before.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fortnite devs confirm that major improvements are coming soon to Legendary Bush item The Legendary Bush item in Fortnite Battle Royale is set to undergo major changes in the near future, according to Epic Games.
