This guide details how to obtain and utilize the Typhoon Blade in Fortnite Chapter 6. The Typhoon Blade is a powerful melee weapon offering both combat and mobility advantages.
How to Get the Typhoon Blade
Several methods exist for acquiring the Typhoon Blade:
1. Typhoon Blade Stands: These stands are scattered across the map at various locations, including Flooded Frogs, Magic Mosses, Lost Lake, Nightshift Forest, and Shogun's Solitude. However, their appearance isn't guaranteed each match. Interact with a stand to obtain the weapon.
2. Chests and Floor Loot: While less reliable, the Typhoon Blade can randomly appear as floor loot or within chests.
3. Defeating Demon Warriors: Demon Warriors, marked on the map, have a chance of dropping the Typhoon Blade upon defeat. They also carry Oni Masks.
4. Purchasing from Kendo: This is a guaranteed method. Find Kendo (northeast of Nightshift Forest) and complete his five Melee Expertise Quests to unlock the purchase option.
5. Defeating Shogun X (Mythic Variant): Defeating Shogun X at Shogun's Arena yields a Mythic Typhoon Blade.
How to Use the Typhoon Blade
The Typhoon Blade boasts several abilities:
- Passive: Increased sprint speed and reduced stamina consumption while equipped.
- Attack: A slash attack (30 damage per hit), chainable into a combo (final hit deals 50 damage). Mid-air attacks negate fall damage.
- Cyclone Slash (Aim Button): A heavy attack (90 damage), knocking back enemies. Has a 10-second cooldown.
- Wind Leap (Jump Button during sprint): A leaping attack that negates fall damage.

Remember, the Typhoon Blade has limited durability and is consumed after use.
