Where To Get A Drum Gun in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2

If you’re hoping to get a guaranteed Drum Gun every match, the first place that you’ll want to visit is Midas’ Ship, located on the Eastern side of the map. It’s directly off the cost of both Pleasant Piazza and The Underworld, so you can stock up a bit before jumping onto the ship. Once inside, you’ll just need to speak with Ascendant Midas to unlock this particular gun.

You’ll find Midas on the top of his ship, near the lounging area. Just keep taking the stairs until you reach the top and speak with him to get a Shield Potion, alongside the chance to purchase a Drum Gun for 300 Gold Bars. While you’re here, why not make a stop at his terminal that can upgrade it to Legendary, as well?

You’ll also want to ensure that you’re checking chests that you encounter, as they can possess not only this particular gun but a variety of other helpful items. Maybe you’ll get lucky enough to get your hands on the Chains of Hades right off of the bat, alongside your Drum Gun? You’ll just need to search all of the chests you possibly can to find this gun as fast as possible.

There’s also the possibility of encountering someone on the battlefield who has this weapon, so make sure that you’re working on your eliminations to secure this gun. The Drum Gun has a rather large magazine, so if you encounter someone who is taking shots at you with something that seems like it never runs out of rounds, you’ve likely encountered someone who has the weapon you’re looking for.
