How to Get Boom Sniper Rifle in Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 1
There are 4 ways you can get the Boom Sniper in this game:
- Buying from NPC: There is an NPC at Pleasant Passage that you can hire for 200 Gold. Once you do that you can buy the Boom Sniper Rifle for 600 Gold from them.
- Buying from Vending Machines: This is the almost guaranteed way to get this weapon. But you need to have a good amount of gold on you. To be a bit more specific you can find them from Ace’s Armory and Ace’s Exotics machines. There are currently two known locations for these Vending Machines in this game. They are:
-
- Brutal Bastion
- Faulty Splits
- Once you go there exchange your gold for the Sniper Rifle.
-
- Getting from Chests: While this is a more luck-based method, another way to get the Boom Sniper Rifle is from the Treasure chests. Open any treasure chest you come across. There is a random chance that one of them might have the Boom Sniper Rifle.
- Killing other players: Similar to the treasure chest method. You also have a chance of finding a Boom Sniper as loot from the players you kill. But you shouldn’t rely on this method too much. Because someone that has this rifle most likely won’t be roaming too much. Unless they are running away from a Storm.
Lastly, no matter if you buy this Sniper rifle using gold or take it from another player. Even after winning the match, you won’t be able to take it to the next match. So each time you will have to find this gun again.
