Vaults have made a thrilling return in *Fortnite* Chapter 6, Season 2: Lawless, and they're tougher to crack than ever before. But fear not, because Epic Games has introduced the perfect tool for aspiring heist masters: Thermite. Here's your ultimate guide on how to find and use Thermite in *Fortnite* Chapter 6, Season 2.
How To Find Thermite in Fortnite Chapter 6, Season 2
With each new season comes a revamped loot pool, making it tricky to pinpoint specific items. Fortunately, finding Thermite is a breeze as it's readily available as floor loot and inside chests. You can also purchase it using Bars at Black Markets and Outlaw Vending Machines scattered throughout Crime City, Seaport City, Lonewolf Lair, and Masked Meadows. Additionally, keep an eye out for Go Bags, as they might contain this explosive gem.
Picking up Thermite is as simple as adding it to your inventory, but it might throw a wrench in your usual loadout strategy. Don't sweat it, though, because Thermite isn't just a one-trick pony in Battle Royale.

How To Use Thermite in Fortnite Chapter 6, Season 2
The primary use for Thermite is to blast open the vaults scattered across the map. Once you have it in your inventory, simply place it on the front of the Vault and wait for the fireworks. Keep in mind, the process takes a while, so target the weak points on the structure to speed things up. Stay vigilant, as rival players might be lurking, ready to snatch the loot you're after.
Another way to utilize Thermite is by throwing it. It doesn't detonate instantly, giving you a brief window before it unleashes a spectacle of explosives in all directions, dealing damage to any nearby foes. While Thermite might not be the most potent explosive in *Fortnite*'s arsenal, it's a reliable way to turn the tide in a heated skirmish.
That's the lowdown on finding and using Thermite in *Fortnite* Chapter 6, Season 2. Looking for more excitement? Check out all the rumored collaborations for the Lawless season.
