Typhoon Blade: Fortnite's Latest Mythic Weapon Surfaces

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 advantages and enhanced mobility.

How to Obtain the Typhoon Blade

Several methods exist for acquiring this valuable weapon:

1. Typhoon Blade Stands: The most reliable method involves locating and interacting with Typhoon Blade Stands scattered across the map. These stands don't guarantee a blade each time, but offer the best odds. High-probability locations include Flooded Frogs, Magic Mosses, Lost Lake, Nightshift Forest, and Shogun's Solitude.

2. Chests and Floor Loot: While less predictable, the Typhoon Blade can also be found randomly within chests and as floor loot. This method relies on luck but provides an alternative if stands are already looted.

3. Defeating Demon Warriors: Demon Warriors, marked on the map and spawning near active portals, have a chance of dropping the Typhoon Blade upon defeat. Note that they may also drop Oni Masks.

4. Purchasing from Kendo: A guaranteed method involves purchasing the blade from Kendo, located northeast of Nightshift Forest. This requires completing all five stages of his Melee Expertise Quests first.

5. Defeating Shogun X (Mythic Variant): Defeating Shogun X at Shogun's Arena yields a Mythic Typhoon Blade, the most powerful version.

How to Use the Typhoon Blade

The Typhoon Blade boasts several key abilities:

• Passive Ability: Increased sprint speed and reduced stamina consumption while equipped.
• Attack: A standard slash attack dealing 30 damage per hit, chainable into a combo for 50 damage on the final blow. Also usable mid-air for a damage-nullifying downward strike.
• Cyclone Slash (Aim Button): A heavy attack dealing 90 damage and knocking back enemies. Has a 10-second cooldown.
• Wind Leap (Jump Button during sprint): A powerful leap nullifying fall damage.
• Air Dash (Jump Button mid-air): A forward dash nullifying fall damage.

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