Fortnite Chapter 6: Mastering the Lock-On Pistol

Fortnite Chapter 6 has introduced exciting new content, including the powerful Oni Masks, Typhoon Blades, and challenging bosses. A notable addition to the loot pool is the Lock-On Pistol, a unique weapon designed for precision aiming. This guide details how to obtain and effectively utilize this weapon.

Obtaining the Lock-On Pistol

The Lock-On Pistol, being a Rare rarity weapon, can be found in various ways:

• Floor Loot: Search the environment for the pistol as standard floor loot.
• Chests: Loot chests throughout the map for a chance to find the Lock-On Pistol. While not guaranteed, opening numerous chests increases your chances.
• Fishing: Try your luck fishing at designated Fishing Spots with a Fishing Rod. Fishing Spots often yield Rare weapons, increasing your odds of acquiring the pistol.

Utilizing the Lock-On Pistol

The Lock-On Pistol is a semi-automatic weapon dealing 25 damage per hit. Its key feature is its lock-on functionality:

• Lock-On Mechanic: While aiming down sights, a circle appears around your reticle. Any target within this circle will be automatically hit by your shots, regardless of whether they are gliding, in bushes, or moving (provided they aren't behind cover).
• Effective Range: The lock-on feature is effective within a 50-meter radius. Get close to your targets for optimal results.
• Hip-Firing: The Lock-On Pistol can be hip-fired, although this disables the lock-on feature.
