Question Answer

Yes, you can close the Epic Games Launcher without having to worry that you'd have to download everything from the start. All downloads will be paused once you exit the launcher. When you launch it later, you will have the option for resuming the download.

  As I’m unsure of the VBuck placements in the previous seasons (2–10) I’ll only specifically talk about Chapter 2: season 1, which with its 100 tiers gives a total of 1500 VBucks to anyone who reaches tier 100, but specifically answering your question of “At what tier does the Fortnite battle pass pay for itself?” That would be tier 65, where the final hundred Vbucks are awarded.
