Fortnite: Where to Find Heavy Sniper Rifle

gamerant.com:

Fortnite Chapter 3, Season 2’s week 5 challenges have dropped, giving players the chance to earn huge amounts of XP to level up their Battle Pass. Players looking to get Fortnite’s Doctor Strange skin at level 100 will want to prioritize these challenges, as they provide the most effective means of quickly leveling up.

Weekly challenges usually focus on certain new elements in the game, typically encouraging the use of new, unvaulted items. This week is no exception, as one challenge tasks players with using the returning Heavy Sniper Rifle to deal some damage to enemy vehicles. This challenge cannot be completed with any other Sniper, such as the Hunter’s Bolt Action, and finding a Heavy Sniper can be a challenge in itself. This guide will show players how to best acquire a Heavy Sniper Rifle to complete the quest.

Fortnite: Where to Find Thermal Weapon

Heavy Sniper Rifles are weapons of Blue rarity and above, meaning they can rarely be found as floor loot; players’ best chance of finding them lies in chests, supply crates, and occasionally in fishing spots. There is, unfortunately, no easy way to find a Heavy Sniper Rifle, and the all-too-common appearance of Anvil Rocket Launchers in chests can make finding them even harder.

The best way to find one is to search plenty of chests in a short period of time, and the best way to do that is by using a tank.

IO Titan Tanks are a new addition to Fortnite Chapter 3, Season 2, and they allow players to flatten land with maximum efficiency. By driving through buildings and quickly destroying their foundations, players will see loot fall from the heavens as the building (and all the chests within it) are destroyed.

One location Loopers can attempt this strategy at isTilted Towers.
