With the latest update to Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 3, Epic Games has unveiled a new lineup of Mythic weapons, which are recognized as the most powerful versions of standard weapons available in the game. These Mythic weapons are unique in that only one of each type can be found on the entire map, making them highly sought after.
Players can discover a total of seven distinct Mythic weapons in this season. To obtain most of these weapons, players must defeat specific bosses located around the island. However, a few of the weapons are available through looting.
Here is a breakdown of where to find each Mythic weapon:
- Megalo Don’s Nitro Fists and Combat Shotgun: Players must defeat Megalo Don either at Brutal Beachhead or encounter him while he’s part of a moving convoy around the island.
- The Machinist’s Combat Assault Rifle: This weapon is obtained by defeating The Machinist at Redline Rig or during their movement as part of a convoy.
- Ringmaster Scarr’s Boom Bolt: Players need to defeat Ringmaster Scarr at the Nitrodome or find him in a convoy.
- Enhanced Hand Cannon: This weapon can be claimed on Loot Island without the need for combat.
- Cerberus’ Gatekeeper Shotgun: To acquire this shotgun, players must defeat Cerberus at Grim Gate.
- Oscar’s Frenzy Auto Shotgun: This weapon is rewarded after defeating Oscar at Classy Courts.
It’s important for players to remember that these bosses are accessible to everyone on the map, which means competition can be fierce.
To assist in these battles, players can utilize Nitro Barrels and Nitro Splashes found at the bosses’ lairs, which are designed to make the encounters easier. Additionally, players have the option to modify their vehicles for combat, providing an edge in these challenging fights.
Upon defeating a boss, players not only secure the Mythic weapon but also collect a medallion as a trophy of their victory.
This comprehensive guide should equip players with the knowledge they need to successfully navigate Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 3 and claim the powerful Mythic weapons for themselves.
