Fortnite Hunters has launched Chapter 6 with an explosive start, introducing a sprawling map, the debut of formidable Oni Masks and Typhoon Blades, and exciting boss battles. As the season unfolds, a wealth of new content is being revealed, including unique items and engaging features.

With Winterfest now behind us, Fortnite Hunters has rolled out its first significant update, reintroducing beloved items from Chapter 4. While some players may be on the hunt for the Kinetic Blade, the Lock On Pistol has caught the attention of many, promising to enhance their shooting accuracy.

How To Get The Lock On Pistol

The Lock On Pistol, classified as a Rare item, can be found as floor loot or inside chests scattered across the map. Although its rarity means it's not as elusive as some items, thorough looting of chests remains the best strategy to increase your chances of finding it.

For an alternative approach, try fishing at designated Fishing Spots using a Fishing Rod. These spots are known to boost the likelihood of pulling in Rare weapons, making it a promising method to secure the Lock On Pistol.

How To Use The Lock On Pistol

The Lock On Pistol operates much like other semi-automatic pistols in Fortnite, delivering 25 damage per shot. Its distinguishing feature, however, is the Lock-On capability. When aiming down sights, a targeting circle appears around your reticle. As long as an enemy is within this circle, every shot you fire will hit them, unless they're behind cover.

This feature is effective against players gliding in the air or hiding in bushes, but remember, its range is limited to 50 meters, necessitating close engagement with your targets. For those who prefer a less precise approach, the Lock On Pistol can be fired from the hip, though this bypasses its primary locking mechanism.
