The legendary outlaw Midas returns alongside a diverse crew featuring the up-and-coming musical artist Big Dill, along with Cassidy Quinn and others. Chapter 6 Season 2: Lawless kicks off the ultimate showdown among thieves!
Gathering Treasure: Key Locations
The island is now overflowing with Bars, attracting the attention of notorious criminals like Fletcher Kane, creating a fierce competition to amass wealth. Where to start your treasure hunt? Here are some promising locations:
Crime City
Venture into the chaotic realm of Crime City, the go-to hotspot for unsavory characters. Key spots worth visiting include the Hostile Hotel, Wise Guys Bookstore, and Launder Mat.
Outlaw Oasis
Need a breather? Relax at the Outlaw Oasis, an upscale spa where thieves unwind after a day filled with thrilling escapades.
Shiny Shafts
If you’re on the hunt for Bars, consider raiding one of Fletcher Kane’s banks, or better yet, hit his contested mining operation at Shiny Shafts.
Lonewolf Lair
Fletcher’s hidden mansion, known as Lonewolf Lair, is heavily fortified. Anyone daring enough to challenge his empire will face fierce resistance!
Meet Your Rival: Fletcher Kane
The infamous Fletcher Kane rules as the mob boss of the island and is always lurking at the most strategic moments—specifically during heists.
Surviving his relentless attacks could reward you with the coveted Mythic Fletcher Kane’s Double Down Pistol and the Unstoppable Medallion, which boosts sprint speed and enables melee attacks while on the run. Remember, collecting Medallions makes you visible on opponents’ mini-maps—beware of your surroundings!
The Rise of Big Dill
Big Dill, the latest rap sensation on the scene in Fortnite, is on a mission to become the toughest gherkin in the jar. Teaming up with The Brat, they make up the dynamic duo known as the Tasty Bois. Their new track “Runamok”is already making waves on Soundcloud and features as a Jam Track in the Battle Pass.
Plan of Action: How to Conquer
As even the best heisters will tell you, here’s what to anticipate during your next mission:
Power Up with Gold Rush
In pursuit of victory? Immerse yourself in gold-infused waters to activate Gold Rush, enhancing your speed and pickaxe efficiency. Maximize your Gold Rush potential by mining Gold Veins for Bars!
Big Dill’s in-game currency, Dill Bits, is escalating rapidly in value! Though they aren’t preserved between matches, be strategic in using them before they vanish!
Strategic Investment: Shopping at Black Markets
Utilize your Dill Bits and Gold Bars at one of the three Black Markets scattered throughout the map, providing access to exclusive Mythic and Legendary items. These markets also host Boons to assist with future heists.
Fletcher’s Transport: Risk and Reward
Be cautious: if gold moves, Fletcher Kane is likely to be involved. Look for his Armored Transport convoys throughout the island, but prepare for a showdown with his henchmen!
Alternatively, raiding Fletcher’s Armored Train offers substantial loot, albeit with elevated risks. Disabling the train’s defenses and breaching the vault is challenging but rewarding.
Unlocking New Boosts
This season introduces a reinvigorated slate of Boons, obtainable solely from Black Markets or Rare Chests. Notably, these Boons will remain accessible even if you are eliminated in the same match, adding an extra layer of strategy:
- Vulture Boon: Pinpoints enemy eliminations on the map for a short duration.
- Gold Rush Boon: Acquiring or dismantling Chests triggers Gold Rush.
- Adrenaline Rush Boon: Activates the Slap effect upon dynamic maneuvers like wall jumps.
- Gold Ammo Boon: Automatically grants extra ammo when collecting Bars.
- Greed Boon: Provides additional Bars through eliminations and from chests.
Explosive New Items
Discover fresh arsenals designed for both offense and defense!
Vault-Cracking Gear
The only method to breach a vault is with Thermite, a potent explosive found throughout the map. For efficiency, direct your fire towards the vault’s weak points to hasten the blast.
Equipment for Chaotic Success
Heists require more than time and patience. Stay armed with the Collateral Damage Assault Rifle and the Falcon Eye Sniper for significant power! Keep an eye out for the feared Outlaw Shotgun coming in v34.10!
Always Be Prepared
Utility items like the Port-A-Cover and Pulse Scanner will help you navigate your heists while keeping a lookout for potential threats. Should you encounter henchmen or enemy squads disrupting your plans, utilize the Med-Mist Grenade and Gold Splash to regain health swiftly.
Take On Sub-Zero
With the arrival of the chilling cryomancer Sub-Zero, players can enhance their gameplay by acquiring Sub-Zero’s Kombat Kit, allowing for icy offenses against rivals.
