A traditional Wookiee weapon, the bowcaster can grant intense power to those who seek it in Fortnite’s Battle Royale, but how is it obtained?
Star Wars weapons always make a splash in Fortnite, and the new Wookiee Bowcaster is no exception, providing players with an intensely powerful Mythic weapon for Fortnite x Star Wars, the new 2024 event that brings the galaxy far, far away to Battle Royale. The Wookiee Bowcaster might be something that catches the eyes of players thanks to its damage and range potential, showcasing the intense blasters of the fuzzballs of Kashyyyk.
It's not so simple to grab the Wookiee Bowcaster, and players will have to search and perhaps even fight for it. After all, the dreaded Empire and even other players are going to want to confiscate and use this technology for themselves, since only one person can claim Victory Royale.
Search Imperial Chests / Rescue Chewbacca
There are two ways that players can get their hands on the Wookiee Bowcaster Mythic. Firstly, is the method of Searching Imperial Chests. Imperial Chests have set spawns across the Fortnite islands, and players can expect to find them at any Imperial roadblock. There are 6 of these around the map, and they always spawn at the same spots, and usually with 2 Imperial Chests. However, a Wookiee Bowcaster is not a guaranteed spawn from these chests, as players might find an E-11 Blaster Rifle inside instead.
The second way, which is guaranteed but harder due to the number of people dropping down, is to rescue Chewbacca, an NPC that will always spawn on the map at a random Imperial blockade, indicated by the blue smoke in the sky each round. Killing the Stormtroopers will see Chewbacca drop a Wookiee Bowcaster as a reward.
