Fortnite Chapter 6: Mastering the Lock-On Pistol
Fortnite Chapter 6 has introduced exciting new content, including the powerful Lock-On Pistol. This guide details how to obtain and effectively utilize this unique weapon.
Acquiring the Lock-On Pistol
The Lock-On Pistol, a Rare-rarity weapon, can be found in two primary ways:
- Chest Loot: Search chests throughout the map. While not guaranteed, chests offer a higher chance of containing Rare weapons.
- Fishing: Use a fishing rod at fishing spots. Fishing spots frequently yield Rare-rarity items, increasing your chances of finding the Lock-On Pistol.
Utilizing the Lock-On Pistol
The Lock-On Pistol is a semi-automatic pistol dealing 25 damage per hit. Its key feature is its lock-on mechanism:
- Aim Down Sights (ADS): When ADS, a targeting circle appears around your reticle. Any enemy within this circle will be automatically hit by your shots, regardless of their movement (e.g., gliding, hiding in bushes), provided they are not behind cover.
- Effective Range: The lock-on functionality has a 50-meter range.
- Hip-Firing: While hip-firing is possible, it negates the lock-on feature.
Here's a summary of the Lock-On Pistol's stats:
| Stat | Value |
|---|---|
| Damage | 25 |
| Fire Rate | 15 |
| Magazine Size | 12 |
| Reload Time | 1.76s |
Mastering the Lock-On Pistol's lock-on capabilities within its effective range will significantly improve your accuracy and effectiveness in combat.
