The Chains of Hades, a fearsome weapon in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2, has captured the interest of many players. This guide will equip you with the knowledge to not only find this coveted weapon but also unleash its power on the battlefield.
How to Get Chains of Hades in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2
There are three primary ways to claim the Chains of Hades:
1. Loot Themed Locations
Search chests and scattered loot around Greek-themed points of interest like The Underworld, Grim Gate, Mount Olympus, and Brawler’s Battlegrounds. These locations have a higher chance of spawning the Chains of Hades, similar to how the Zeus mythic was found earlier in the season.
2. Olympian and Underworld Chests
Keep an eye out for gleaming golden chests scattered throughout the map. These Olympian and Underworld Chests have a chance of containing the Chains of Hades, offering another avenue to acquire this powerful weapon.
3. Conquer the Underworld
For the ultimate test of skill, head to The Underworld and challenge Hades himself. Topple his imposing statue, eliminate his minions, and finally defeat Hades in an epic showdown. This method not only grants you the Chains of Hades but also his coveted Aspect of the Gods.
How to Use
The Chains of Hades offers a unique combat style, functioning as both a melee weapon and a projectile. Here’s how to unleash its fury:
- Melee Combat: Swing the Chains of Hades like any other melee weapon using the regular “Fire” button.
- Ranged Throw: Hold the “Aim” button to target and throw the Chains of Hades. This unique ability pulls enemies closer, perfect for closing the gap on a fleeing opponent or yanking them down from high ground.
Unlike other Season 2 items, the Chains of Hades has no limitations besides its swinging animations. To counter an enemy wielding this weapon, maintain distance and employ strategic dodging when they attempt a throw.
By mastering the acquisition and combat techniques of the Chains of Hades, you’ll be well on your way to dominating the battlefield and claiming victory in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2.
