Fortnite fans can download update 9.30, as Epic takes the game offline for server maintenance.
And according to the lengthy list of 9.30 patch notes, the latest Fortnite update is a big one.
The headline new feature is the addition of a brand new item called Chug Splash.
Ideal for squad play, this thrown item splashes liquid in a small area, which in turn grants 20 Health/Shield to any players in the splash radius.
According to the patch notes, it can heal allies, enemies and even extend the duration of the knocked state.
Unfortunately, however, it's not all good news, because the Boom Bow, Dual Pistols and Dynamite have all been vaulted.
The Shotgun Swap Delay has also been removed from the game, although Epic will track its effectiveness.
Needless to say, update 9.30 also makes a number of quality of life improvements and bug fixes.
It's also worth noting that Playground mode will be unavailable after the game comes back online.
You can check out the full list of update 9.30 patch notes below...
LIMITED TIME MODE ROTATION:
Sniper Shootout Duos
• Sniper rifles only. May the best aim win!
Trios
• Classic Battle Royale with Three-Person squads.
Solid Gold Squads
• Fight to the finish using Legendary weapons.
WEAPONS + ITEMS
Chug Splash
• On impact, this thrown item splashes liquid in a small area. All players within the splash radius will be instantly granted 20 Health/Shield.
• Grants health unless you are full health, in which case it will grant Shield.
• Chug Splash can heal allies, enemies, and can extend the duration of the ‘knocked’ state for knocked players.
• Rare variant.
• Drops in stacks of 2.
• Max stack size: 6.
• Can be found from Floor Loot, Chests, Vending Machines, Supply Drops, and Llamas.
Shotgun Swap Delay Removed
• Shotgun cooldowns now only apply when the player is carrying multiple shotguns, regardless of Shotgun type.
• This is a Quality of Life change to prevent the swap delay system from interfering with players who do not have multiple shotguns in their inventory. As with all changes, we’ll be keeping a close eye on this and make adjustments if necessary.
• Reduced the Combat Shotgun’s long-range effectiveness
• Reduced damage at medium distances by 10%
• 2.44 tiles to 4.88 tiles
• Reduced damage at long distances by 20%
• 4.88 tiles to 9.76 tiles
• The Combat Shotgun’s accuracy uniquely enables players to hit shots from longer distances compared to other shotguns. However, the damage at those longer ranges was a little higher than desired..
Vaulted
• Boom Bow
• Dual Pistols
• Dynamite
• These Vaults are primarily targeted at adjusting the availability of explosives, putting them more in line with where we think they should be.
• Removed the ability to ride Proximity Grenade Launcher projectiles
• Due to the faster speed of this projectile, it was causing problems with level streaming. You can still ride rockets launched from Rocket Launchers.
• Added short delay to start damaging players from Storm Flip on entry, to mimic normal Storm gameplay
• Added Storm Flip to Audio Visualizer when it is activated
• Toys no longer will show up in the elimination feed on Starter Island
Playground mode will be unavailable after the maintenance while we investigate some stability issues. We will keep you updated as soon as it is back.

GAMEPLAY
• Made the “Hold to Swap” feature an option. This defaults as OFF.
