Medallion explained Epic Games \/ DexertoSiphon is an in-game mechanic in Fortnite, that some players may not be familiar with, so here\u2019s what it means and how it works. Fortnite has some terms and mechanics in the game that can be quite hard to keep track of, especially if you\u2019re a new player or simply haven\u2019t been in the loop for a while \u2013 Siphon being one of them. In Chapter 5, Season 4, this mechanic is finally back. This time, it serves as an effect from one of the Medallions you can pick up in the game instead of an augment. Knowing how this works can help you out in securing that sweet Victory Royale. Read on to find out everything you need to know about how the Siphon mechanic works in Fortnite Chapter 5, Season 4. What is Siphon in Fortnite? Mechanic explained Siphon is a mechanic in Fortnite that allows you to gain health and shield after eliminating an enemy. This can be extremely useful when you\u2019re in a pinch or if you\u2019re almost in the final circle with no medkit or shield potions to loot nearby. In Chapter 5 Season 4, players can utilize this mechanic by defeating Doombot at Castle Doom and looting him. Afterwards, he\u2019ll drop the Siphon Medallion, which you can equip. However, like any other Medallions in the game, it comes with a cost. While you get to regenerate health and shield with Siphon, wearing the medallion will reveal your location to all players on the map. So, everyone will constantly know where you\u2019re going, no matter your location in Fortnite. That said, this shouldn\u2019t be a problem if you\u2019re confident in your skills and know where all the Mythics are. Additionally, thanks to this season\u2019s loot pool, there\u2019s now a \u201cbroken combo\u201d you can try to shred enemies in your way.
