Fortnite Chapter 6, Season 2: Lawless – Mastering the Gold Rush
In Fortnite's Chapter 6, Season 2: Lawless, controlling the cash flow is key. Mob boss Fletcher Kane's safehouses are scattered across the map, and seizing one offers unique rewards. This guide explains Gold Rush and how to activate it.
What is Gold Rush?
Gold Bars remain a crucial element, allowing players to acquire in-game currency and exchange it for various items. This season introduces a twist: collecting gold activates Gold Rush, a significant boost enhancing movement speed, pickaxe swing speed, and pickaxe structural damage.
Similar to Boons or Medallions, Gold Rush provides a competitive edge, although temporary. It's a valuable advantage, accessible through two methods.
How to Activate Gold Rush
Unlike other abilities, Gold Rush offers multiple activation paths:
-
Golden Plunge: Submerging yourself in gold-infused water instantly activates Gold Rush. These water sources are strategically located across the map.
-
Mining Gold Veins: Gold Veins, the source of Gold Bars, now grant Gold Rush upon mining. Shiny Shafts, Fletcher Kane's primary supply location, is a prime spot to find them. However, be cautious; Kane's forces are heavily guarded.
