How to get a Grapple Blade in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 1

There are three ways to get a Grapple Blade in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 1:

  • Chests
  • Ground loot
  • Buy it using 400 Gold Bars from Steelsight NPC at Rebel Roost

A Grapple Blade is an item of Epic rarity and you will find it often by opening chests or occurring simply as ground loot.

However, there can be moments when you’re running out of luck, and the only option left is to purchase a Grapple Blade from Steelsight NPC located at Rebel Roost (northwestern part of the map) by spending 400 Gold Bars. Getting this much amount of Gold won’t be a hassle as you can get them easily by defeating NPC bosses and looting Vaults.

You can find it similar to the ODM Gear as it also deals melee damage. Remember, you can use it non-stop for 4 times and after each use, it starts reloading every 12 seconds.

So, there you have it — that’s how you can get a Grapple Blade in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 1. For more about the game, be sure to check our other content and guides below:
