Fortnite Hunters has launched Chapter 6 with an exhilarating array of new features, including an expansive map to explore, the introduction of powerful Oni Masks and Typhoon Blades, and exciting boss battles. As the season unfolds, players can expect a continuous stream of fresh content, including unique items and additional gameplay enhancements.

With Winterfest now behind us, Fortnite Hunters has rolled out its first significant update, reintroducing some beloved items from Chapter 4. While the Kinetic Blade may catch the eye of some, the Lock On Pistol is generating buzz among players eager to improve their aim.

How To Get The Lock On Pistol

The Lock On Pistol, classified as a Rare weapon, can be found as floor loot or inside chests scattered across the map. Although it's a Rare item, diligent looting of chests increases your chances of securing this weapon.

For an alternative method, try fishing at designated Fishing Spots using a Fishing Rod. These spots boost the likelihood of obtaining a Rare weapon, making it a viable strategy to snag 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 unique selling point is the Lock-On feature. When aiming down sights, a circle appears around your reticle. If an enemy is within this circle, every bullet you fire will hit them, as long as they're not behind cover.

This feature is effective against players gliding in the air or hiding in bushes. However, the Lock-On capability is limited to a 50-meter range, so you'll need to stay close to your targets. While the pistol can be fired from the hip for a spray-and-pray approach, this method won't utilize the Lock-On feature.
