What is a Clinger in Fortnite?
The Clinger is a grenade attached to a plunger that you can throw to make it stick to any surface or player on Fortnite Island, and it will then explode after three seconds, dealing area damage to surrounding enemies.
You can effectively use this by throwing the Clinger at your opponent’s feet before opening fire on them with your weapons, and you can also use it to blow up any protective structures that they build.
Where to find a Clinger in Fortnite
Clingers can be found as loot on the floor and in chests all over the Island, but we recommend heading to the Tilted Tower POI as it contains several buildings filled with chests for you to search through.
We advise practicing caution when looking for Clingers as other players will also be looking to complete this week’s challenge, so you might face some competition from them after spotting this item.
