Looking for a brand-new weapon to help you be the last person standing in another round of battle royale? We’ll show you how to get the Warforged Assault Rifle in Fortnite so that you can take down opponents with ease.
Fortnite is constantly adding new content to keep things fresh. It’s how it has managed to keep servers alive and well after so many years.
Chapter 5 Season 2 of Fortnite has given players another wave of new quests, skins, and weapons including the Warforged Assault Rifle. For more on the update, feel free to check out the weekly quests it will have or learn how to get the Avatar Korra skin.
How to obtain the Fortnite Warforged Assault Rifle
The Warforged Assault Rifle can be found in in random places across the map in Fortnite. However, if you’re looking for the Mythic version of the weapon, you’ll have to best a Greek god in combat.
The deity you’ll need to defeat for the Mythic Warforged Assault Rifle is none other than Ares, the God of War himself. To summon Ares onto the Fortnite island, you’ll need to topple his statue at the Ares Altar in Brawler’s Battleground. Be prepared for a tough battle ahead before trying this.
After defeating Ares, the Mythic Warforged Assault Rifle will drop. At that point, it will be a scramble against other nearby players to see who can grab the weapon first.
How to beat Ares in Fortnite
Ares won’t show up to the battlefield right away. After interacting with his statue, several of his minions will spawn in waves and close in on nearby players.
Once enough of his minions have been defeated, Ares will join the fight. As expected of the God of War, Ares will be proficient with a variety of weapons in the game.
Be sure to maintain a steady balance between taking cover and landing your shots on Ares since he may call upon more minions if you take too long to beat him. It’s easy to get overrun if this happens.
