The Wanted: Joss Outlaw Quests in *Fortnite* Chapter 6, Season 2 are challenging missions that test the mettle of even the most seasoned players. The Big Dill challenge has stirred up quite the excitement, but it's just the beginning of a series of demanding tasks. Here’s a detailed guide on how to collect mineral samples using the Plasma Burst Laser in *Fortnite*.
How To Find the Plasma Burst Laser in Fortnite
The Plasma Burst Laser is a new addition to the arsenal during the Lawless season, excelling at cracking open Vaults across the map. As an Epic item, it's not easily found. Your best bet is to check out Points of Interest (POIs) with Vaults, such as Crime City, where you'll find numerous Go Bags and Chests. Alternatively, you can purchase the Plasma Burst Laser at two Black Markets for 600 Gold each. While one is located south of Seaport City, the more strategic choice is near Magic Mosses, given that your next task involves returning to Joss’ lab to analyze the collected mineral samples.

How To Collect Mineral Samples Using the Plasma Burst Laser on Stone Structures in Fortnite
Once you've acquired the Plasma Burst Laser, your next step is to locate a stone structure. Not just any stone will suffice; it must be one that can be destroyed. Our tests at The Escapist confirmed that targeting permanent stone structures won't yield the desired mineral samples. Instead, seek out destructible stone pieces that you can break with your Pickaxe.
Upon finding the right stone, aim the Plasma Burst Laser at it and fire away until it shatters. The mineral samples won't automatically add to your inventory. Instead, a small piece of rock will drop to the ground once the stone is destroyed. Interact with this rock to successfully collect the samples and complete the Quest.
With the mineral samples in hand, you won't have to venture far to reach Joss' lab. The game will guide you to the exact spot inside her lab where you need to go. By interacting with the designated area, you'll not only analyze the samples but also earn additional XP, wrapping up the Wanted: Joss Outlaw Quests. You can then return to regular *Fortnite* gameplay and flaunt the new items you've unlocked.
And that's the complete guide on how to collect mineral samples using the Plasma Burst Laser in *Fortnite* Chapter 6. Stay tuned for more, including all the rumored collaborations set for the Lawless season.
Fortnite is available to play on various platforms, including the Meta Quest 2 and 3.
