Fortnite’s brand new Chapter is officially here, and alongside it are some impressive new weapons. Among these new weapons is the Shockwave Hammer, which can earn through enemies while also sending you across the map.
Here is everything you need to know about the Shockwave Hammer (How they work, where to find them, etc.).
Send yourself flying across the map, while destroying every enemy in your way
So exactly what is the Shockwave Hammer? This new weapon is a large hammer that is infused with shockwave mechanics. When using one, it will send you through the air like a shockwave.
Once you are sent flying, you will have the ability to slam the hammer downward, destroying whatever is in your way. This new weapon paves a new setting for competitive players and casual players.
Whether or not this weapon will stay in competitive throughout the rest of the season is still unknown.
Where to find the Shockwave Hammer in Fortnite Chapter 4, Season 1
Finding this new weapon will be based completely off of chance for players looking to wield its mightiness. The weapon spawns throughout the map in a new style of chest that are littered across the island.
The rarity of coming across one of these chests is unknown but seems to be somewhat frequent. Players can expect to find the chests in multiple locations throughout the island.
Additional information on the Shockwave Hammer
The Shockwave Hammer proves to be an exciting and powerful item for players to compete with in the new chapter. Here is some additional information on the weapon.
The shockwave effect not only works on you but also on the players around you. This means that you can utilize the weapon for movement if you and your teammates are stuck in the storm.
Utilize the hammer to shockwave your team across the map.
You can also shockwave enemies too. This feature allows for you to push an opponent in the opposite direction, giving you a chance to avoid close-up combat.
The hammer can be used 4 times to deal damage. Don’t worry, you can still use it as a shockwave as many times as you like. After each attack, players will have to wait 15 seconds before being able to use it again.
We hope you enjoy this new powerful weapon in Fortnite’s Chapter 4, Season 1.
