You can bounce with the Shockwave Hammer in Fortnite by equipping it and right-clicking your Mouse or by pressing the LT/L2 button on your Xbox or PlayStation controller. This hammer is quite versatile as it allows you to bounce only once or even multiple times based on how you use it. But before you can actually use it, you need to find it.

Here is the location of the Shockwave hammer in Fortnite.

Where to find the Shockwave Hammer in Fortnite?

You can find the Shockwave Hammer from the Oathbound chests in this game. These are large white-colored chests. While they should spawn anywhere on the map, you have a high chance of finding them in The Citadel. Make sure you are mindful of the sounds of the chests nearby when looking for one. Once you do, interact with it like you would with other chests. You can do that by pressing the F-key on your keyboard. And the chest should drop one.

Shockwave Hammer Uses

There are mainly two uses for this weapon. One is to Smack it on the ground, while the other is to bounce. Here is how you can do them all:

  • Smack Hammer on ground
    • PC: Left mouse button
    • Xbox: Press the RT button on your controller
    • PlayStation: Press the R2 button on your controller
  • Bounce with the hammer (once)
