Lobber

Lobber is a type of Monster in Fortnite: Save the World that are first introduced during the second defense wave of Stonewood Storm Shield Defense 2. They are a standard monster that prioritizes attacking the base over the player.

Summary
Lobber husks throw purple or orange flaming skulls from a long distance. Purple skulls deal damage on impact to players and structures, while orange skulls linger and deal damage per second to players only.

Lobbers need to be prioritized during defense Missions as they can easily and quickly destroy buildings if left unchecked. When paired with Flingers, their combination can become especially dangerous.

Variants

 * Standard - Common in all areas. Lobs the standard high damage artillery skulls.
 * Poison – Lobs orange artillery skulls that leave behind an orange, poisonous cloud.
 * Beehive – Throws beehives at the player and when they land, bees swarm the area.
 * Love – Lobs pink artillery skulls that leave pink, damage-dealing clouds.

Strategies
Defensive Strategies
 * A group of Lobbers are capable of doing large amounts of damage to structures/objectives.
 * Lobbers can be lured away from the objective by getting their attention.
 * AOE weapons can clear out groups of Lobbers quickly.
 * If time allows, clear sight lines around your fortification to allow sniping. Lobbers prefer to hide behind rocks and trees to make sniping more difficult. Taking out trees near Storm vortexes can make it much easier to kill them.
 * It is strongly recommended to add roofing to objective defenses, to prevent Lobbers' skulls from damaging the objective directly. Additional protection can be added by placing a pyramid building piece on top of a flat horizontal piece.
 * While the poison variant is virtually harmless to structures, their combination with the Beehive husks can create a very restrictive field which is especially dangerous to Ninjas.
 * Skull projectiles can be shot down midair. This is often easier if the Lobber has cover and it is too dangerous to abandon the objective to hunt it down. Weapons with a high rate of fire such as LMGs and SMGs make shooting the projectiles easier since the high rate of fire minimizes the need for accurate targeting.
 * It is significantly easier to shoot down projectiles from normal Lobbers than poison ones. This is because poison Lobber projectiles move a lot faster.
 * They usually hide in the back of the pack of husks.
 * The Anti Air Trap can destroy incoming ranged attacks from a Lobber.
