Fortnite Chapter 6, Season 2: Lawless – Mastering the Gold Rush
In Fortnite's Chapter 6, Season 2: Lawless, controlling the cash flow is key. Mob boss Fletcher Kane's safehouses are scattered across the map, and seizing one offers unique rewards. This guide explains Gold Rush and how to activate it.
What is Gold Rush?
Gold Bars remain a crucial element, allowing players to acquire currency and exchange it for in-game items. This season introduces a twist: acquiring gold activates Gold Rush, a temporary power-up boosting movement speed, pickaxe swing speed, and pickaxe structural damage. Similar to Boons or Medallions, Gold Rush provides a significant competitive advantage.
How to Activate Gold Rush
Unlike other abilities, Gold Rush offers multiple activation methods:
- Golden Plunge: Immerse yourself in gold-infused water found at various locations across the map. This quick dip grants the Gold Rush buff.
- Mining Gold Veins: Extract Gold Bars from Gold Veins scattered throughout the island. Shiny Shafts, a key location for Fletcher Kane's operations, is a prime spot to find these veins. However, be cautious; Kane's forces are heavily guarded.
This covers Gold Rush's mechanics and activation within Fortnite Chapter 6, Season 2. For further information, explore rumored collaborations for this Lawless season.
Fortnite is available on various platforms, including Meta Quest 2 and 3.
