Shield Bubble

The Shield Bubble is a throwable item in Fortnite: Battle Royale, added in Season X.

Functionality
Upon landing, the Shield Bubble creates a large transparent shield dome around its landing spot. The Shield is able to block projectiles and gunfire, and will block these from both in and outside of the bubble. It will also block the effects of items like the Junk Rift. The Bubble lasts 30 seconds, but can be stopped early by attacking the item itself found in the center of the bubble.

The Shield Bubble is affected by gravity (when the surface it is attached to is destroyed, it will move) and will also move with attached Vehicles.

Obtained
Shield Bubbles are normally obtained as Floor Loot or inside chests.

Strategy Guide

 * The Shield Bubble is very useful for defending a Vehicle, as it will completely cover any Vehicle in the game, and oftentimes attacking is difficult when in one, so it will not prove detrimental to your squad.
 * The Shield Bubble is good for healing, as it allows a decent amount of time to use items such as Medkits or Chug Jugs.
 * The Shield Bubble is an effective counter to the Air Strike or Junk Rift, as both are blocked by the Bubble.

Season X

 * Update v10.20: Added the Shield Bubble in rarity.

Chapter 2: Season 1

 * Update v11.00: Vaulted the Shield Bubble.

Trivia

 * The Shield Bubble is very similar to Gibraltar's Dome of Protection in Apex Legends, as both are large dome shaped shields that can be placed down to protect teammates, and cannot be shot into or out of.
 * However, Gibraltar's Shield provides faster healing, but when the Shield Bubble was introduced, this was not the case.
 * This follows suit in Fortnite: Battle Royale taking concepts from Apex Legends, such as Pings and Reboot Vans.
