Vaults have returned in *Fortnite* Chapter 6, Season 2: Lawless, and they're tougher to crack than ever before. Fortunately, Epic Games has introduced an item tailored for those with a knack for heists: Thermite. Here's your guide on how to find and use Thermite in *Fortnite* Chapter 6, Season 2.
How To Find Thermite in Fortnite Chapter 6, Season 2
With the launch of a new season, the loot pool sees a refresh, making it tricky to pinpoint where specific items spawn. However, finding Thermite is straightforward as it can be discovered as floor loot and within chests. You can also purchase Thermite using Bars at Black Markets and Outlaw Vending Machines located in Crime City, Seaport City, Lonewolf Lair, and Masked Meadows. Additionally, you can snag it from Go Bags. Once you pick up Thermite, it's added to your inventory, but integrating it into your loadout might require some strategic adjustments. Don't worry, though; Thermite offers versatile uses in Battle Royale.

The primary purpose of Thermite in this season is to breach the vaults scattered across the map. With Thermite in your inventory, you can place it on the vault door and wait for the explosion. Be aware that this process is time-consuming, so target the weak points on the structure to expedite the breach. Stay vigilant, as other players will be keen to snatch the loot you're targeting.
An alternative use for Thermite is as a throwable explosive. After a short timer, it detonates, creating a spectacle of fireworks and dealing damage to nearby enemies. While it may not be the most potent explosive in *Fortnite*'s arsenal, Thermite can be a lifesaver during heated confrontations.
