Despite there being a definitive loot pool of weapons in Fortnite every season, the developers also like adding a few extras to the game. Unlike normal weapons, these can't be obtained from chests or even vaults. Exotics must be purchased with gold bars and are only sold by certain NPCs.

Be that as it may, they are some of the most powerful weapons in-game and are rightfully labeled as exotic. In the right hands, they can be used to "GG" half the lobby and easily take down experienced players.

Exotic Weapons in Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 4 - Location, price, and utility

Boom Sniper Rifle

Staying true to its name, the Boom Sniper Rifle causes frequent commotion with every shot fired. Unlike other weapons in its class that require accuracy, players only need to shoot next to their intended target to inflict damage.

Each shot fired will deal 75 explosive damage to anyone within a small but lethal radius. It costs 600 gold bars and can be purchased from the NPC known as Rustler. She can be found at Shifty Shafts.


The Dub

The Dub is best identified as a double-edged shotgun in Fortnite. If the user is not careful, they can send themselves flying into oblivion upon firing the weapon. Nevertheless, for those who know their way around shotguns in-game, this weapon has no equal.

It costs 600 gold bars and can be purchased from the NPC Mancake at Rocky Reels. Given that the area often sees a lot of intense fighting during mid-game, those planning to buy the weapon should be careful when doing so.


Shadow Tracker

Shadow Tracker is a one-of-a-kind pistol in Fortnite. Unlike other suppressed weapons that merely mask the sound of gunfire, this one can highlight opponents who have been shot. Since enemies can turn into Chrome blobs this season and move about rapidly, having them marked will come in handy.

At a low cost of 400 gold bars, Loopers can purchase the weapon from the NPC Sunbird. She can be found loitering about the premises of The Temple, a small landmark located northeast of Lustrous Lagoon.


Chug Cannon

Chug Cannon is an exotic weapon unlike any other in Fortnite. It has unlimited ammo and only needs to regain charges before being used. During team fights, players can use this unity item/weapon to heal and restore the health/shields of all players in the squad.

Although Chug Cannon can be obtained by eliminating Llamas in-game, coming across one is rare. Thus, the easiest way to obtain one is by buying it from Kyle for 600 gold bars. The NPC can be found at The Chop Shop. It is located northwest of Logjam Junction.


The Herald's Burst Rifle

Although this weapon is not exotic in Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 4, it deserves a place on this list. Loopers can only obtain the weapon by defeating The Herald in combat. Given her large HP pool, she remains undefeated in most matches.

Those who manage to best her in combat will be awarded The Herald's Burst Rifle. According to the community, it's lethal at shredding builds and beaming opponents from mid-range. It would seem that while the NPC is hated for turning things into Chrome, her weapon is rather popular in-game.
