The Foundation in Fortnite Chapter 3: Players should avoid standing in front of the NPC

The return of the Foundation was teased before the release of Fortnite Chapter 3. The revival of the popular character was a pivotal move from Epic as everyone wanted to learn more about the Seven and their mission.

Visiting the Foundation is not dangerous if loopers maintain a safe distance. However, venturing close to him and standing right in front of him may not end well.

The Foundation will not take pity on anyone standing in front of him. He will use the opportunity to pull out a giant energy ball and deploy it in an effort to inflict damage to the one blocking his path. After that he'll pull out his MK-Seven Assault Rifle and start firing right away.
