Fortnite x Metallica crossover quests have finally made their way to the game, one of which requires you to collect Ride the Lightning in Fortnite Battle Royale. That being said, here’s where you can find a Ride the Lightning mythic item in the game.
Where to find Ridu the Lightning Guitar in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 3
The Ride the Lightning Guitar is a Mythic rarity in Fortnite, introduced as part of the Metallica collaboration during Festival Season 4. It can be found as floor booty and inside boxesbut its rarity makes it less common compared to other items in the game.
Fortunately, Epic Games also specified eight places on the map where you are most likely to find the Ride the Lightning Guitar:
- Nitrodrome POI
- Behind the hotel at Grand Glacier
- Right in the middle of Reckless Railways
- Entrance of Brutal Beachhead
- At Lavish Lair POI
- Scrying Pool at Olympus
- North of Redline Rig
- Music Stage at Restored Reels
How to use Ride the Lightning in Fortnite
Ride the Lightning is not your typical weapon. Although it can be activated by a simple left clickit doesn’t shoot bullets.
Instead, this guitar has a special ability that lets players quickly flies through the air, damaging everything in their way. The weapon has three charges for air flightwith fourth charge permitting ground avoidancesimilar to the Wings of last season.
As a result, it can be used both as a powerful destructive tool and an amazing mobility aid. I strongly recommend using this weapon to avoid the heat of battle, just like we do with Nitro Fists.
But that’s not even all! Ride the Lightning isn’t the only way to go sky high as the floating Metallica Loot Island will split from a hole in the sky in the middle of each match. As mentioned before, the POI stage is inspired by the M72 World Tour, where you can go out to the holographic James, Lars, Kirk, and Robert to capture the POI.
