Acquiring the Typhoon Blade in Fortnite
Just like hunting down other rare loot, the Typhoon Blade can appear in chests or as ground loot. But there’s more—dedicated stands throughout the map also offer this coveted weapon.
In Chapter 6 Season 1, these stands are distributed in multiple locations, with a handful consistently being in the same spots. Here are the stand locations we’ve uncovered so far:
- Fixed stand locations: Locations with potential repeat appearances each game.
- Random stand locations: Sporadic appearances that demand a keen eye.
For those seeking the ultimate version, the mythic Typhoon Blade awaits. Beat the elusive boss Shogun X, who roams the map and appears on floating islands that unpredictably show up. This challenging variant also drops one of the mystical oni masks.

So, once you have your hands on the Typhoon Blade, how do you use it effectively? This weapon isn’t just about offense; it significantly enhances your movement too.
The katana boasts three unique attacks, tailoring its use to various combat situations. And when it comes to traversing the battlegrounds, the Typhoon Blade grants two distinct movement abilities, allowing you to maneuver with grace and precision.
