Thermite in Fortnite Chapter 6, Season 2: The Ultimate Heist Tool
Vaults have returned to Fortnite Chapter 6, Season 2: Lawless, but accessing them is tougher than ever. Luckily, Epic Games has introduced the perfect tool for aspiring thieves: Thermite. This guide explains how to find and utilize this explosive item.
Locating Thermite:
Finding Thermite is relatively straightforward. It can be discovered as floor loot, inside chests, purchased with Bars from Black Markets and Outlaw Vending Machines (located in Crime City, Seaport City, Lonewolf Lair, and Masked Meadows), or acquired from Go Bags.
Strategic Deployment:
Thermite offers dual functionality:
-
Vault Breaching: Place Thermite against a Vault door. While effective, it requires time, so targeting weak points accelerates the process. Be prepared for potential enemy interference; the spoils of your heist will attract unwanted attention.
-
Offensive Weapon: Thermite can be thrown as a projectile. After a short fuse, it explodes, causing area-of-effect damage to nearby opponents. While not the most potent explosive, it's a valuable tool in close-quarters combat.
Mastering Thermite ensures you're well-equipped for the challenges of Fortnite's Lawless season. For more Fortnite news, check out the rumored collaborations for this season.
Fortnite is available on multiple platforms, including Meta Quest 2 and 3.
