How To Find & Use Thermite in Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 2

Thermite in Fortnite Chapter 6, Season 2: A Heist Helper

Vaults are back in Fortnite's Chapter 6, Season 2: Lawless, but accessing them is tougher than ever. Luckily, Epic Games introduced Thermite, the perfect tool for aspiring vault raiders. This guide explains how to find and utilize Thermite.

Locating Thermite:

Finding Thermite is relatively straightforward. It's available as floor loot, within chests, from Go Bags, and can be purchased using Bars at Black Markets and Outlaw Vending Machines located in Crime City, Seaport City, Lonewolf Lair, and Masked Meadows.

Thermite's Dual Functionality:

While primarily used for vault breaches, Thermite offers a secondary tactical advantage.

Vault Breaching:

To open a vault, equip Thermite and place it against the vault door. While effective, it requires time, so targeting weak points on the vault structure will expedite the process. Be mindful of potential enemy interference; other players will likely be drawn to the valuable loot inside.

Offensive Utility:

Alternatively, Thermite can be thrown as a projectile. It features a short fuse before detonation, unleashing a burst of explosive damage on nearby opponents. While not the most powerful explosive in the game, it's a valuable tool in close-quarters combat.

In summary, Thermite is a versatile item in Fortnite Chapter 6, Season 2, useful for both vault heists and tactical engagements.

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