Fortnite Hunters ushers in Chapter 6 with a brand-new map, brimming with exciting locations, enhanced movement mechanics, and formidable demonic bosses. This season's arsenal is equally diverse, from the Fury Assault Rifle to the Oni Shotgun. But for close-quarters combat and a mobility edge, the Typhoon Blade reigns supreme. Here's your complete guide to acquiring it.

Updated January 15, 2025, by Nathan Round: The Typhoon Blade's popularity continues to soar, making it a top choice for both mobility and close-range combat. This guide has been updated to highlight guaranteed acquisition methods, providing valuable assistance to players seeking this powerful weapon.

How To Get The Typhoon Blade

Looting Typhoon Blade Stands

The most reliable method is locating and looting a Typhoon Blade Stand. These stands appear at specific points across the island, but their presence isn't guaranteed at every spawn location. Prime locations include:

• Flooded Frogs
• Magic Mosses
• Lost Lake
• Nightshift Forest
• Shogun's Solitude

Simply interact with the stand to claim your blade.

Chests & Floor Loot

Prefer a less confrontational approach? The Typhoon Blade can also be found within chests and as floor loot. While this method relies on luck, it offers an alternative if stands in your area are already depleted.

Defeating Demon Warriors

Another route involves defeating Demon Warriors. Three spawn near active portals each match, and their locations are marked on the map. While defeating them offers a chance to acquire the Typhoon Blade (if they're carrying one), they may also drop one of two Oni Masks.

Purchase From Kendo

For a guaranteed acquisition, visit Kendo northeast of Nightshift Forest. However, you must first complete all five stages of his Melee Expertise Quests to unlock the purchase option.

Defeating Shogun X (Mythic Only)

A Mythic Typhoon Blade awaits those brave enough to conquer Shogun X at Shogun's Arena. Be warned: this is a challenging encounter.

How To Use The Typhoon Blade

The Typhoon Blade is a versatile melee weapon. Its unique abilities enhance both combat and mobility, but remember, its durability depletes with each use, resulting in its eventual loss.

Here's a summary of its abilities:

• Passive Ability: Increased sprint speed and reduced stamina consumption while equipped.
• Attack: A slash attack dealing 30 damage per hit, chainable into a combo finishing with 50 damage. Can also be used mid-air for a downward attack that negates fall damage.
• Cyclone Slash: A heavy attack (90 damage) that knocks enemies back. Enters a 10-second cooldown after use.
• Wind Leap: A mid-sprint jump that negates fall damage.
• Air Dash: A mid-air dash that negates fall damage.
