Captain LagbeardThe latest season of Fortnite has brought a full-fledged crime wave to the island, and we’re here for it! Chapter 6 Season 2 introduces multiple high-security vaults scattered across the map, each packed with juicy loot—if you can break in.
Whether you’re targeting a traditional vault, chasing the moving treasure train, or taking down an armored transport, we’ve got you covered. Let’s plan the perfect heist!
Where to Find the Vaults
There are five major vault locations across the map, stashed away in:
✔️ Crime City
✔️ Masked Meadows
✔️ Seaport City
✔️ Lonewolf Lair
✔️ The Train (constantly moving, of course—because why make it easy?)
On top of these, some sneaky mini-vaults travel around in armored transport vehicles, so keep an eye out for those. If you’re hunting for the train vault, just pull up your map and look for the train+vault icon—it’s always on the move!
How to Open a Vault in Fortnite
Unlike past seasons where you needed keycards, this time we’re going full Hollywood action movie. Here’s how to break into any vault:
🔹 Step 1: Grab some thermite—you’ll need it to breach the vault door.
🔹 Step 2: Locate a vault and look for the big, round door with a rotating handle.
🔹 Step 3: Plant the thermite and get ready for chaos. Alarms will blare, NPC guards will attack, and you’ll probably attract enemy players too!
🔹 Step 4: If waiting isn’t your thing, use a Plasma Burst Laser to speed things up. Just aim at the glowing weak points of the door and blast away.
🔹 Step 5: BOOM! The vault is open, and you can grab your well-earned loot.
💡 Pro Tip: Epic Games has teased a Rocket Drill coming later this season, making heists even more action-packed!
How to Rob the Moving Train Vault
So, you’re feeling ambitious and want to rob a literal moving train? Here’s what you need to do:
🚆 Step 1: Locate the train by checking your map for the train+vault icon.
🚆 Step 2: Gear up with weapons and ammo—turrets and NPC guards will be waiting for you.
🚆 Step 3: Jump onto the train and take out the turrets first. They will light you up if you ignore them.
🚆 Step 4: Collect thermite cores from the destroyed turrets. You’ll need them to break into the vault.
🚆 Step 5: Make your way to the front of the train and place thermite on the vault door.
🚆 Step 6: Fight off NPCs while waiting for the explosion—then claim your loot!
How to Take Down Armored Transport Vaults
For an extra challenge, you can rob vaults on wheels! These armored vehicles aren’t stationary, so you’ll need to be quick on your feet.
🚙 Step 1: Find an armored transport on the map. They spawn later in the match and are marked by a tiny car icon.
🚙 Step 2: Engage the NPC guards surrounding the vehicle. One of them will drop thermite—grab it!
🚙 Step 3: Toss the thermite onto the vehicle and get ready for a firefight.
🚙 Step 4: If the vehicle drives away, hijack a motorbike from one of the henchmen to chase it down!
🚙 Step 5: Once the thermite explodes, loot will spill out—grab it before someone else does!
Final Thoughts: Be Smart, Stay Alive, and Get Rich
Vaults in Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 2 aren’t just about the loot—they’re a full-on action movie experience. With enemy players, NPC guards, and moving targets, every heist feels intense. But with the right strategy (and some well-placed thermite), you’ll walk away loaded with top-tier gear.
So, what are you waiting for? Get in there, start cracking vaults, and may your loot pile be ever-growing! 💰🔥
