What are they and how to get them
Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 1 Reality Augments are new perks that you can choose at different times during the game as it progresses. You can choose one of two augments at a time, which you can change if you don’t like as the first re-roll of a match is free. However, once you’ve chosen, its effect remains until the end of the game. The longer you stay alive, the more you can get.
There are a total of 22 different Reality Augments as of the start of the new season. Keep in mind that not all are available from the start — you’ll need to level up to unlock them. The new season features a set of missions that serve as tutorials on how to use them.

What are the best Reality Augments?
The answer to this question depends on your situation and which ones you’ve been dealt in the different rolls. It’s always a good idea to choose ones that suit your playstyle and those that will enhance the weapons you’re using.
The good thing about these Reality Augments is that they’re not game-defining, so they don’t make big changes or create overwhelming differences, they simply enhance a form of play to make it more efficient.
