Fortnite Hunters unleashes a wave of new content in Chapter 6, including a fresh map brimming with exciting locations, enhanced movement mechanics, and formidable demonic bosses. This season's arsenal is equally impressive, from the Fury Assault Rifle to the Oni Shotgun. But for close-quarters combat and a serious mobility boost, the Typhoon Blade reigns supreme. This guide details how to acquire this powerful weapon.

Updated January 15, 2025, by Nathan Round: The Typhoon Blade's popularity continues to soar, making it a top choice for both mobility and close-range combat. This guide has been updated to highlight guaranteed acquisition methods, providing valuable assistance to players seeking this sought-after weapon.

How To Get The Typhoon Blade

Looting Typhoon Blade Stands

The most reliable method for obtaining the Typhoon Blade is by looting Typhoon Blade Stands. These stands are situated at specific spawn points across the island, though their appearance isn't guaranteed at every location. Prime locations include:

• Flooded Frogs
• Magic Mosses
• Lost Lake
• Nightshift Forest
• Shogun's Solitude

Simply approach a stand and interact with it to claim your blade.

Chests & Floor Loot

Alternatively, you can find the Typhoon Blade in chests and as floor loot. While this method relies on luck, it provides a backup option if stands in your area are already looted.

Defeating Demon Warriors

Another way to get your hands on a Typhoon Blade is by defeating Demon Warriors. These enemies spawn at active portals (three per match) and are clearly marked on the map. While defeating them doesn't guarantee a Typhoon Blade, they sometimes drop one (alongside a chance at Oni Masks).

Purchase From Kendo

For a guaranteed Typhoon Blade, visit Kendo, located northeast of Nightshift Forest. However, you must first complete all five stages of his Melee Expertise Quests to unlock the purchase option.

Defeating Shogun X (Mythic Only)

A Mythic Typhoon Blade can be obtained by defeating Shogun X in Shogun's Arena. This, however, is a significantly more challenging method.

How To Use The Typhoon Blade

The Typhoon Blade is a versatile melee weapon offering both damage and mobility. Keep in mind that its durability depletes with each use, resulting in its eventual loss.

Here's a summary of its abilities:

• Passive Ability: Increased sprint speed and reduced stamina consumption while equipped.
• Attack: A slash attack dealing 30 damage per hit. Chain attacks for a combo, culminating in a 50-damage final blow. Can also be used mid-air for a downward attack that negates fall damage.
• Cyclone Slash: A heavy attack (90 damage) that knocks enemies back. Has a 10-second cooldown.
• Wind Leap: A mid-sprint jump that negates fall damage.
• Air Dash: A mid-air dash that negates fall damage.
