In all online browser games, gamers are graded into professionals and beginners, and Battle Royale is no exception. The former have long-term gaming experience and, over time, acquire the full range of gaming skills and knowledge. The latter often encounter game mechanics for the first time, and a collision with a progamer on the battlefield may give them the wrong impression of their own capabilities.

To balance the situation and make newcomers feel like strong players, Epics decided to introduce mobs into the gameplay of Fortnite.

Thus, newbie has the opportunity to learn the game at the first stages of entry in all existing modes, except for the competitive one.

The system of introducing low-level robots in Fortnite is built in such a way that the beginning player encounters mainly mobs during matches. According to the developers, such a training experience will help the newly arrived gamer to adapt to the gameplay and study its features. With the development of skills and transitions to new levels, newbie begins to compete with opponents of his own kind.
