"Fortnite Season 5" will bring new exciting changes that fans should really look forward to. Epic Games, the developer of "Fortnite," is getting ready to introduce a new currency to the popular battle royale.
A new "Wad" item/currency got added this update to the loot pool, it's planned to spawn in stashes & a safe (thanks to @Not0fficer for the help): - Small Wad Stash: 25
- Medium Wad Stash: 100
- Large Wad Stash: 250
