Thermite in Fortnite Chapter 6, Season 2: A Heist Essential
Vaults have returned to Fortnite Chapter 6, Season 2: Lawless, but accessing them is tougher than ever. Fortunately, Epic Games has introduced Thermite, the perfect tool for aspiring vault raiders. This guide explains how to find and utilize Thermite effectively.
Locating Thermite:
This season's updated loot pool makes finding specific items challenging. However, acquiring Thermite is relatively straightforward. It can be found as floor loot, within chests, purchased with Bars at Black Markets and Outlaw Vending Machines (located in Crime City, Seaport City, Lonewolf Lair, and Masked Meadows), or obtained from Go Bags.
Strategic Deployment:
While simply adding Thermite to your inventory is easy, choosing how to use it requires careful consideration. Its versatility offers strategic advantages.
Primary Use: Vault Breaching
Thermite's primary function is opening vaults. Place it against the vault door and wait for it to detonate. Targeting weak points on the vault structure will expedite the process. Remember, other players will likely be drawn to the potential loot, so maintaining awareness is crucial.
Secondary Use: Offensive Weapon
Thermite can also be thrown as a makeshift explosive. It features a short fuse before detonation, creating a damaging area-of-effect explosion. While not the most potent explosive in Fortnite, it can provide a tactical advantage during intense firefights.
Conclusion:
Mastering Thermite's dual functionality is key to success in Fortnite Chapter 6, Season 2. Use it wisely to conquer vaults and outmaneuver opponents.
Fortnite is available on various platforms, including Meta Quest 2 and 3.
