10 Best Weapons in Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 2

Before you can orchestrate heists, break into vaults, and rob armored vehicles and trains, you need the best weapons on hand. The weapons will come in handy not just when attacking and defending yourself from the competition but also in pulling off the most lucrative heist. Whether it’s blasting off walls or drilling through heavy armor, you want the strongest and most reliable weapons by your side. Thankfully, Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 2 comes pre-loaded with some of the most powerful weapons the Battle Royale has seen. Here are the best weapons in Fortnite, Chapter 6, Season 2, you don’t want to miss out on.

10. Thermite

Thermite is a brand new weapon in Lawless specifically curated to break into vaults. Since heists are a major part of Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 2, you want this handy weapon on hand. In fact, Thermite is the only weapon that will grant you access to the vaults in the game.

It’s the only way you can crack open a vault. With four vaults available in the seasonal update, the weapon will definitely come in handy. To unlock Thermite, all you need to do is explore the map. You should find it around the map to be picked up as normal loot. 

9. The Kneecapper

A powerful melee weapon is always great to have. In Fortnite, Chapter 6 Season 2, the brand-new mobster-themed Kneecapper ranks quite high among the best weapons. It replaces the Typhoon Blades from the last season.

The weapon pretty much looks like a baseball bat. However, this isn’t just any baseball bat, as equipping it grants you multiple and powerful bonuses. It’ll help you move faster, jump higher, and consume less energy while sprinting away from the competition or guards.

Close-range gamers will love The Kneecapper, although that means you’ll need to get up close to break some legs. Provided the swing lands, it’ll inflict considerable damage on enemies.

8. Rocket Drill

Armored vehicles are going to be one of the biggest adversaries you’ll meet. So, you definitely want the Rocket Drill among your best weapons in Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 2.

It helps to bust open an armored vehicle’s door, granting you access to the competition barricading themselves within it as well as their loot. However, the Rocket Drill can be applied in several other scenarios.

For instance, it can help dig through dirt when getting away from a heist.. 

7. Armored Transport Trucks

Vehicles are an unconventional weapon in most games. However, they come in pretty handy in Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 2. It can be a slick way to ram into enemies.

While it may not always lead to certain death, the damage dealt is pretty significant to then finish it up with a frenetic gunfight. Moreover, the armored transport trucks shield you from sustaining too much damage.

All while ensuring that you can ram into several enemies at the same time. Oh, and of course, armored transport trucks are great for making speedy getaways or simply cruising around Crime District.

6. Falcon Eye Sniper

There’s no way we can ignore the Falcon Eye Sniper among the best weapons in Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 2. Picking enemies off one by one from a safe distance is simply too good to pass up.

With the sniper weapon, you can crouch behind cover, hide in a bush, or find a strategic spot at the top of a mountain. Then, you can make great use of the sniper’s scope to take out enemies.

Line up the perfect shot, and it should be enough to take out an enemy, and even an entire group, without causing an alarm. That said, snipers aren’t a new thing in Fortnite.

However, that only means that veterans will have the practice needed to execute satisfying headshots. 

5. Fletcher Kane’s Double Down Pistol – Mammoth Pistol

Pistols are never going out of style, and in Fortnite Chapter 6, Season 2, your best bet is Fletcher Kane’s Double Down Pistol. It’s pretty powerful. However, you have to defeat the don to nab the pistol away from him.

4. Outlaw Shotgun

Another of the typically powerful weapons in Fortnite is shotguns. Although Outlaw Shotgun is scheduled to launch at the next patch update in a couple of weeks, we’re nearly certain it’ll be a powerful weapon.

It’ll definitely come in handy during intense combat, firing powerful mid to long-range shots. 

3. Plasma Burst Laser

While you’re breaking into vaults, the Plasma Burst Laser will come in handy. It’s a brand-new weapon in Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 2 that shoots explosive firepower that can break down a vault once you’re able to crack it open with a Rocket Drill.

However, you can definitely adapt its destructive damage output to dealing with enemy squads. Just one shot can drastically weaken enemy forces, if not take them out.

The explosion will inflict significant damage while impacting multiple enemies at the same time. Alternatively, you can use the Plasma Burst Laser to weaken armored vehicles’ doors before using the Thermite to blast them open.

2. Collateral Damage Assault Rifle

While the Falcom Eye Sniper can be restrictive – you can only make the most of it tucked away at a safe distance, the Collateral Damage Assault Rifle is more all-purpose. It’s a long-range weapon. However, you can use it at mid-range, too.

Either way, it’s reliable when dealing with melee opponents wielding the Kneecapper, long-range enemies sniping from afar, and pretty much any incoming danger. While it may sound like a simple weapon, the damage output is pretty impressive.

Not to mention that it’ll fire bullets speedily while also harboring sufficient ammunition in the magazine.

1. Sub-Zero’s Kombat Kit

Sub Zero has been the most exciting addition to Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 2. So, to have Sub Zero’s Kombat Kit among the best weapons comes as no surprise. The parts that make up the kit will be distributed all across the Crime District.

Combined, they give you icy powers, including mythic frosty fists to throw some ice punches at enemies and Sub Zero’s iconic icy slide ability. Being a Mortal Kombat crossover, players will definitely be hunting down the kt.
