Fortnite Hunters has launched Chapter 6 with an explosive start, featuring a sprawling map to explore, the introduction of powerful Oni Masks and Typhoon Blades, and exciting boss battles. As the season unfolds, more content is continuously being added, enriching the game with unique items and engaging features.

With Winterfest now behind us, Fortnite Hunters rolls out its first major update, reintroducing some beloved items from Chapter 4. While the Kinetic Blade may catch the eye of many, the Lock On Pistol is another weapon that's creating buzz among players for its ability to assist in landing shots.

How To Get The Lock On Pistol

The Lock On Pistol, classified as a Rare weapon, can be found scattered as floor loot or tucked away in chests across the map. Although it's categorized as Rare, players might still need to search extensively through numerous chests to secure this item.

Alternatively, fishing at designated Fishing Spots with a Fishing Rod offers an enhanced chance of reeling in a Rare weapon, including the Lock On Pistol. This method provides a promising route for players aiming to add this weapon to their arsenal.

How To Use The Lock On Pistol

Functioning as a semi-automatic pistol, the Lock On Pistol delivers 25 damage per shot, making it a reliable choice for combat. Its distinguishing feature is the Lock-On capability, activated when aiming down sights. A circle appears around the reticle, and any target within this circle will be hit by every bullet fired, as long as they're not obscured by cover.

This feature is effective even against players gliding or hiding in bushes. However, the Lock-On mechanism has a limited range of 50 meters, necessitating close proximity to targets. For those who prefer a less precise approach, the Lock On Pistol can be fired from the hip, though this method bypasses the weapon's key feature.
