Where To Find the Thunderbolt of Zeus in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2

You’ll be able to find the Thunderbolt of Zeus either lying on the ground or if you’re lucky, inside of different Treasure Chests — especially the Olympus or Underworld Chests. You can also eliminate opponents you encounter on the battlefield and hope they’ve got one hiding in their inventory that you can swoop up and steal away from them. This weapon does take up a standard weapon slot, so make sure you have room for it when you finally encounter one. They are a Mythic-tier weapon, so they are not easy to find.

As you can see in the video above, you won’t be able to move once you start using the Thunderbolt of Zeus, so make sure that you’re confident in your aiming skills and don’t miss the second throw like I did if you’re hoping to cause as much damage as possible. You’ll also spot a pop-up in the top-left corner that shows you how much progress you’ve made toward this quest.

You’ll need to deliver 200 damage to your opponents, so it could be a quest that takes a few matches to complete, but once you have done it, you’ll receive 10k XP toward the new and improved Battle Pass for this season.
