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 this valuable weapon:
1. Typhoon Blade Stands: These stands are located at specific points across the map. While not guaranteed spawns, they offer the most reliable method. Check locations such as Flooded Frogs, Magic Mosses, Lost Lake, Nightshift Forest, and Shogun's Solitude. Interact with the stand to claim the blade.
2. Chests and Floor Loot: The Typhoon Blade may randomly appear in chests or as floor loot. This is less reliable than the stands but provides an alternative acquisition method.
3. Defeating Demon Warriors: Demon Warriors, marked on the map, have a chance to drop the Typhoon Blade upon defeat. They also carry Oni Masks.
4. Purchase from Kendo: This is a guaranteed method. Find Kendo northeast of Nightshift Forest. Complete his five Melee Expertise Quests to unlock the purchase option using Gold Bars.
5. Defeating Shogun X (Mythic Version): Defeating Shogun X at Shogun's Arena yields a Mythic Typhoon Blade, the most powerful variant.
How to Use the Typhoon Blade
The Typhoon Blade has limited durability. Its abilities include:
- Passive Ability: Increased sprint speed and reduced stamina consumption while equipped.
- Attack: A slash attack dealing 30 damage per hit, chainable into a combo dealing 50 damage on the final hit. Can be used mid-air for a downward attack negating fall damage.
- 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 jump negating fall damage.
- Air Dash (Jump Button mid-air): A forward dash negating fall damage.
Remember, the Typhoon Blade's durability depletes with each use. Use it strategically!
