Fortnite Chapter 6: Mastering the Lock-On Pistol
Fortnite Chapter 6 has introduced exciting new elements, including the powerful Oni Masks, Typhoon Blades, and challenging bosses. Among the additions is the intriguing Lock-On Pistol, a weapon designed for precision shots. This guide details how to acquire and effectively utilize this unique firearm.
How to Obtain the Lock-On Pistol
The Lock-On Pistol, being a Rare weapon, can be found as floor loot or within chests throughout the map. While not overly rare, actively looting chests increases your chances of finding one.
Alternatively, fishing at designated Fishing Spots with a Fishing Rod offers a higher probability of obtaining Rare weapons, including the Lock-On Pistol.
How to Use the Lock-On Pistol
The Lock-On Pistol functions as a semi-automatic weapon, inflicting 25 damage per shot. Its unique feature is its lock-on mechanism. When aiming down sights, a circle appears around your reticle. Any target within this circle will be automatically hit by your shots, regardless of their movement (e.g., gliding or hiding in bushes), provided they aren't behind cover.
The lock-on functionality has a 50-meter effective range. While hip-firing is possible, it negates the primary advantage of 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 enhance your combat effectiveness in Fortnite Chapter 6.
