There are two types of Star Wars weapons in Fortnite Chapter 4, Season 2
Epic Games has released two types of Star Wars weapons with the latest collaboration. Lightsabers are melee weapons obtained from Rift Gates, while DC-15 Blasters are ranged weapons found in special chests.
Both of these weapons are great when used correctly. Considering that they need to be used for numerous challenges, many Fortnite players have gotten used to them.
If you're unsure where to find these weapons in the current season, here are the steps you need to follow:
1) Obtain a lightsaber from a Rift Gate
It would help if you talked to a Star Wars NPC next to a Rift Gate to obtain a lightsaber. Once you talk to them, you will enter a Rift Gate and emerge with a lightsaber.
These NPCs can be found all over the island. The easiest way to locate them is to look at the minimap. There are unique icons that show where these NPCs are located.
2) Obtain a DC-15 Blaster from a Clone Trooper checkpoint
A DC-15 Blaster can be found at Clone Trooper checkpoints. There are three checkpoints on the map, and all of them have a couple of Clone Troopers who sell the Star Wars weapon.
Checkpoints are located at Slappy Shores, Frenzy Fields, and Shattered Slabs.
However, it would help if you first looted the area instead of buying the weapon. Checkpoints have several chests that contain DC-15 Blasters. If they haven't been looted, you should open these chests before spending gold on the weapon.
