Vaults are making a thrilling comeback in *Fortnite* Chapter 6, Season 2: Lawless, and they're tougher than ever to crack open. Thankfully, Epic Games has introduced an item that's perfect for aspiring heist enthusiasts: Thermite. Here's your complete guide on how to find and use Thermite in *Fortnite* Chapter 6, Season 2.
How To Find Thermite in Fortnite Chapter 6, Season 2
Each new season brings a fresh loot pool, which can make hunting for specific items a bit of a challenge. However, finding Thermite is relatively straightforward. You can stumble upon it as floor loot or inside chests. Additionally, you can purchase it using Bars at Black Markets and Outlaw Vending Machines located in hotspots like Crime City, Seaport City, Lonewolf Lair, and Masked Meadows. Don't forget, you can also snag Thermite from Go Bags.
Once you pick up Thermite, it's added to your inventory, but you'll need to consider how it fits into your existing loadout strategy. Fortunately, Thermite's versatility in *Fortnite* Battle Royale means it's a worthwhile addition.

How To Use Thermite in Fortnite Chapter 6, Season 2
The primary purpose of Thermite is to breach vaults scattered across the map. To use it, simply place the Thermite on the vault's front and wait for the fireworks. Be patient, as it takes some time to work its magic. To speed things up, target the structure's weak points. Remember to stay alert; rival players might be lurking, eager to snatch the loot you're after.
Another way to deploy Thermite is by throwing it. It doesn't detonate right away, giving you a short window before it erupts into a dazzling explosion. This can be a game-changer in heated battles, damaging nearby enemies with its fiery blast. While Thermite may not be the most potent explosive in *Fortnite*'s arsenal, it's definitely a handy tool to have when you're in a tight spot.
And there you have it—everything you need to know about finding and using Thermite in *Fortnite* Chapter 6, Season 2. For more exciting updates, keep an eye out for the rumored collaborations coming in the Lawless season.
