Unleash the Power of Raptors in Fortnite: Ultimate Guide to Taming and Dominating

Weapons frequently cycle in and out of Fortnite, but it's less common for gameplay elements to reappear. Surprisingly, Chapter 4 Season 3 reintroduced Raptors, and they have undergone enhancements.

Since the initial introduction of Raptors to Fortnite, the in-game map has undergone significant changes, making it unlikely for players to find Raptors in their previous locations. This guide aims to assist gamers in locating Raptors in Fortnite and provides instructions on how to tame them and incorporate them into gameplay.

Where to Find Raptors

Raptors can be found throughout the entire jungle biome in Fortnite, roaming from the Northern Ruin landmark located north of Shady Stilts, all the way down to the Southern Ruin landmark situated northeast of Rumble Ruins.

Raptors are noisy, so players that have turned on the Visualize Sound Effects option in Settings will be able to see their direction marked on their screen.

How to Tame Raptors

Raptors are hostile creatures, so they will attack as soon as they spot any player they're not familiar with. The only way to prevent this from happening is to tame them.

Players have two options for taming Raptors in Fortnite. One method is to encounter a Raptor in the wild and try to ride it by jumping on its back. When successfully tamed, hearts will appear above the Raptor's head.

Alternatively, players can locate patches of dirt on the ground where Raptor eggs are waiting to hatch. To encourage the creatures to emerge from their shells, players need to approach the eggs and press and hold the "Hatch" button. Once the Raptor is born, it will automatically be tamed and will show loyalty to the player who assisted in its hatching.

Owners of tamed Raptors can enjoy the benefits of having a loyal companion that will faithfully follow them without any aggressive tendencies. In addition, these tamed Raptors can be ridden by their owners. It's worth mentioning that these Raptors will steer clear of teammates while actively seeking out and attacking any opponents that pose a threat.

For players who possess a tamed Raptor, it is highly recommended to activate the Primal Companion Reality Augment. This feature enables them to not only regenerate their health but also grants them the ability to utilize thermal vision while riding these magnificent creatures.

The Raptor in Fortnite offers excellent mobility, allowing players to sprint at an impressive speed. Moreover, by jumping while sprinting, they can achieve a remarkable leap equivalent to three stories high. However, caution should be exercised with regard to positioning, as jumping off cliffs with the Raptor can result in fall damage.

Fortnite is currently accessible on various platforms including Mobile, PC, PS4, PS5, Switch, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
