O.X.R. Ranks in Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 4 are a modification of the Hero Ranks seen in Chapter 6 Season 3. Similar to the previous mechanic, it is essentially a metric that denotes your rank as a player in every new match. Each player will begin with C before rising through the ranks of B, A, S, and ultimately S+.

The O.X.R. Ranks in Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 4 are also shared among members of the party, affecting the overall ranking in each team during a match. Players can increase their ranks through specific actions such as eliminating enemy players, surviving different storm phases, and even eliminating bugs across the map.

Each time a player or team levels up, an O.X.R. drop pod filled with loot will be sent to the current location. The drop pod will contain weapons as well as Super Soldier, one of the most powerful boons in Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 4. Additionally, increasing the O.X.R. Ranks boosts the powers and skills of this boon, offering more perks and buffs.

However, it is recommended to make sure you do not stand under the drop pod's location since you will end up taking damage. Depending on your party, all of you will receive an individual pod. This prevents scarcity of resources and lets each player stock up without playing musical chairs with the loot. However, you can claim only one Super Soldier boon of a particular rarity.

Apart from this, reaching O.X.R. ranks A and above will give players access to O.X.R. Bunkers containing exotic weapons and resources, spread across various locations on the new map of Shock ‘N Awesome. Additionally, reaching level S+ gives a drop pod with a guaranteed mythic weapon, offering players the ultimate edge to take down opponents to claim a victory royale.

Similar to the Hero caches in Chapter 6 Season 3, these drop pods offer players a quick way to get their hands on weapons and mythic items. Reaching higher O.X.R. Ranks in Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 4 will unlock better quality weapons as well as bunkers to stock up on necessary items. Paired with the buffs on the medallions and better loot, these ranks are an important deciding factor in victory.
