Fortnite Update 3.28 Patch Notes | Fortnite Update v17.50 Patch Notes:
Update: Trello board has been update, and we’ve listed the confirmed fixes.
Unfortunately, Epic Games is known to release the list of fixes after the maintenance period has ended for every patch roll out. However, we’ll be updating this post with the info from the devs once we know about it.
Battle Royale:
Losing item functionality after swapping from Prop-ifier to Consumable.

SGT Tank Gatling’s perk Bouncy Shield is no longer triggering
Description
SGT Gatling’s perk, Bouncy Shield, is suppose to create a sonic wave when blocking with the Goin Constructor Shield. That is no longer happening and is currently under investigation as to why.
Inaccurate description of Goin’ Constructor in game
Description
In game description of Goin’ Constructor says raising the shield gives 675% reduced damage. This is incorrect. In actuality raising the shield does not reduce damage, but gives 675 armor. The description should be fixed in the next patch.
