The Siphon Trials are making a return to Fortnite during its 7th birthday event week. Siphon, a popular mechanic in the game, allows players to gain health and shield after eliminating an enemy, reducing the need for recovery items and encouraging aggressive play.
How the Siphon Trials Work:
The Siphon Trials will take place over six weeks, with each week adjusting the amount of health and shield you receive from eliminations:
- Week 1 (Sept 24): 40 Effective Health
- Week 2 (Oct 1): 50 Effective Health
- Week 3 (Oct 8): 25 Effective Health
- Week 4 (Oct 15): 75 Health Over Time (No Shield)
- Week 5 (Oct 22): 50 Health (No Shield)
- Week 6 (Oct 29): 25 Health, 25 Shield
Game Modes with Siphon:
You can participate in the Siphon Trials in the following game modes:
- Ranked Battle Royale
- Ranked Zero Build
- Tournaments (excluding Reload Tournaments)
- The Siphon Trials will run from September 24 to around November 5. Changes may be made to the schedule based on player feedback.
