Fortnite Hunters has launched Chapter 6 with an explosive start, featuring an expansive map for adventurers, the introduction of formidable Oni Masks and Typhoon Blades, and exciting boss battles. As the season unfolds, new content continues to roll out, enriching the game with unique items and exciting new features.
With Winterfest now behind us, Fortnite Hunters has rolled out its first major update, reintroducing beloved items from Chapter 4. While some players might be on the hunt for the Kinetic Blade, others are set on mastering the Lock On Pistol—a tool designed to enhance accuracy and ensure your shots hit the mark.
How To Get The Lock On Pistol
The Lock On Pistol, classified as a Rare weapon, can be discovered as floor loot or tucked away in chests throughout the map. While obtaining this pistol might require some persistence due to its rarity, players are encouraged to open as many chests as possible to increase their chances.
For an alternative approach, players can try their luck at Fishing Spots using a Fishing Rod. These spots offer a higher probability of yielding Rare weapons, presenting a promising method to secure the Lock On Pistol.
How To Use The Lock On Pistol
The Lock On Pistol operates like other semi-automatic pistols in Fortnite, delivering 25 damage per shot. Its unique selling point is the Lock-On feature. When aiming down sights, a circle appears around the reticle. If a target remains within this circle, all fired bullets will hit the target, provided the target isn't shielded by cover.
This feature proves effective against players gliding or hiding in bushes, though it's limited to an effective range of 50 meters, necessitating close proximity to the target. For those preferring a less precise approach, the Lock On Pistol can be fired from the hip, though this bypasses the Lock-On advantage.
Here is a quick breakdown of the Lock On Pistol's stats:
| Damage | Fire Rate | Magazine Size | Reload Time |
|---|---|---|---|
| 25 | 15 | 12 | 1.76s |
