Fortnite Battle Royale continues to evolve with the release of Chapter 4, Season 1. With the launch of a new Chapter, the game developers have introduced a new set of Exotic weapons on the Island, which players can get their hands on to have the upper hand over their opponents. However, tracking down Exotic firearms isn’t an easy task as they have fixed spawn locations. With that said, our Fortnite guide will help you in finding every Exotic weapon in Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 1.
Update: Following the 23.40 update, Exotic weapons can only be found inside the Cold Blooded Vaults.
How To Open Cold Blooded Vaults To Get Exotic Weapons
To open Cold Blooded Vaults, players will need to obtain their keycard by defeating Cold Blooded bosses. Players can encounter Cold Blooded bosses across three different places throughout the Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 1 island. Those locations are Shattered Slabs, Faulty Splits, and Brutal Bastion. Generally, these bosses can be found roaming in the basement, guarding the vault.
On top of that, the boss is accompanied by four to five enemy NPCs, so make sure to gear up yourself with decent firearms and healing items before engaging in the battle. After eliminating the boss, you can collect the vault keycard from his body to open the Cold Blooded Vault.
The latest Fortnite update includes five new exotic weapons, and here is a list of the same:
- Heisted Breacher Shotgun: This Exotic Shotgun is perfect for destroying walls and cover.
- Heisted Explosive Assault Rifle: This Exotic Assault Rifle fires explosive projectiles.
- Heisted Accelerant Shotgun: The movement speed and fire rate of this Exotic Shotgun increases as you damage enemies with it.
- Heisted Run ’n’ Gun SMG: This Exotic SMG infuses you with Slap then self-reloads while you’re sprinting.
- Heisted Blink Mag SMG: This Exotic SMG temporarily gives you the Zero Point Dash ability after reloading.
