Attackers need to plant the Rift Point Device in any site and detonate it successfully to win the round. On the other hand, defenders have to defend the sites and defuse the Rift Point Device before it detonates if the enemy players manage to plant the device. Here is everything that you need to know about planting the Rift Point Device in Fortnite.\u00a0 How to plant the Rift Point Device in Fortnite Ballistic, explained\u00a0 To plant the Rift Point Device in Fortnite Ballistic, you need to make your way to one of the bomb sites, A or B, while attacking in the Skyline 10 map. You can pick up the Rift Point Device from the spawn area where it should be sitting as an Exotic item that anybody can pick up. The player who picks up the Rift Point Device will have a backbling which you can see to follow them and help them plant it safely.\u00a0 After reaching your preferred site with the Rift Point Device, you need to find the ground with blue lines, which is where you can plant the device. Once you\u2019ve selected the spot, you can press and hold your interact key, which by default is E on PC. It\u2019s not shown directly so it might be a bit tricky to plant the device.\u00a0 For controllers, it\u2019s square for PlayStation players and X for Xbox players. While planting the Rift Point Device, you can be interrupted by the enemies, so always ask for cover or throw the Bubble Shield on the ground to stay protected while planting the device.\u00a0 Once you plant the device, enemies will be notified on their screen that the device has been placed. Now, you\u2019ll either have to eliminate the remaining enemies or spend enough time to detonate the device and win the round. If you\u2019re with the defenders, you will need to defuse the spike in time or you\u2019ll lose the round. After you\u2019ve eliminated the enemies, go to the device on the ground and hold your action key to successfully defuse it to win the round.\u00a0 Next up, you can read our guides to know the full list of weapons in Fortnite Ballistic and complete the Jade and The Mask quests in Fortnite.\u00a0","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Fortnite-Rift-Point-Device-Cover.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1479388"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2041"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1479388"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1479388\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1479528,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1479388\/revisions\/1479528"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1479392"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1479388"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1479388"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1479388"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=1479388"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=1479388"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=1479388"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=1479388"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
