The Firefly Jar Explained in Fortnite

The Firefly Jar is an interesting item when compared to others in the game. Typically, players have full use of an item the moment they find it on the field. Although, the Firefly Jar has multiple uses. For starters, players can find the Jar alone and can search around the map for floating Fireflies. Using the Jar, players can capture these Fireflies. The more Fireflies the player finds, the more effective it will be in combat. The player can then throw the Firefly Jar at enemies and the fireflies will either point out the location of nearby enemies or attack them directly. This is a great way to distract enemies and expose their locations for an ambush. While it is a hefty investment, it can be very valuable towards the endgame.

The game also continues to do events with major brands like Marvel, DC, and more. Fortnite recently had an event with Travis Scott to host an interactive concert.
