Fortnite glitch lets players phase through walls using the Kinetic Blade in Chapter 4 Season 2

Popular content creator Reisshub recently discovered a glitch with the new Kinetic Blade that allows players to phase through walls when using the Dash Attack functionality. Players in Chapter 4 Season 2 have been using this loophole to surprise opponents with swift attacks. The blade is also useful for traveling great distances across the Fortnite map.

However, players must take specific steps to pull off the glitch, which is being referred to as the 22-meter Kinetic Blade exploit. It requires users to utilize the item when at a specific distance from any wall.

With the Dash Attack ability of the Kinetic Blade, players may advance a total of 25 meters, as reported by Reisshub. While a player's dash alone may not be able to destroy an opponent's wall or structure completely, it does inflict enough damage for players to be able to smash through with a pickaxe.

The exploit, on the other hand, is self-sufficient. Before taking advantage of the glitch, you must identify and mark the wall you wish to phase through and then move 21-22 meters away from it. You may use the marker you just affixed to the wall to gauge your distance from the structure.

Equip the Kinetic Blade when you're exactly 22 meters away and hit your Dash Attack key. As you dash, you'll break into the enemy's box, phasing through the wall obstructing your path.

It is important to note that the phasing glitch will not work unless you are located between 21-22 meters away from the wall. Moreover, there's a brief delay before you can switch to a weapon and eliminate the enemy inside the box.

When you phase in, you are at risk of being hit by the player inside the box and thus eliminated from the game. However, if you break through directly behind your opponent, as shown by Destiny in the above clip, you may be able to kill them with a weapon designed for use at close range in Fortnite.
