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. Luckily, Epic Games has introduced Thermite, the perfect tool for aspiring vault raiders. This guide explains how to find and utilize Thermite effectively.

Locating Thermite:

Finding Thermite isn't difficult; it's readily available as floor loot, within chests, and purchasable with Bars at Black Markets and Outlaw Vending Machines (located in Crime City, Seaport City, Lonewolf Lair, and Masked Meadows). You can also find it in Go Bags.

Strategic Deployment:

While Thermite primarily opens vaults, its application extends beyond simple heisting.

Vault Breaching: Place Thermite at the vault's entrance and wait for the explosion. Targeting weak points accelerates the process. Remember, other players will likely be vying for the same loot, so maintain situational awareness.

Offensive Utility: Thermite can also be thrown as a makeshift explosive. While not the most powerful explosive in the game, its area-of-effect damage can provide a tactical advantage during intense firefights.

In short, Thermite is a versatile item in Fortnite Chapter 6, Season 2, serving as both a crucial tool for vault heists and a handy offensive weapon.

Fortnite is available on various platforms, including Meta Quest 2 and 3.
