Lightsabers are classified as Mythic weapons, so be on the lookout for items with a yellow glow. There are no guaranteed spawns for Lightsaber locations in Fortnite, so the best way to find one is to go to an area with a lot of loot. Named locations like The Daily Bugle, Tilted Towers and Command Cavern contain a lot of chests and floor loot, but be careful as they are also popular landing areas. Fortnite Lightsabers list Although they all control the exact same, there are four different Lightsabers in Fortnite: Luke Skywalker's green Lightsaber Kylo Ren's red Lightsaber Obi-Wan's blue Lightsaber Mace Windu's purple Lightsaber Like Jetpacks, each Lightsaber takes up an inventory slot, and basically act like a stronger pickaxe. However, Lightsabers can also block hits when used correctly. How to block hits using a Lightsaber in Fortnite To block hits using a Lightsaber in Fortnite you have to hold down the same button you use to aim down the sights of a gun. On consoles this is defaulted to L2/LT, and on PC this is the right mouse button. This button activates a defensive animation which blocks hits from any normal incoming bullets and blaster fire. After finding a Lightsaber in Fortnite, you'll need somebody to fire at you in order to block their hits ten times. If you're struggling to find an opponent, blocking hits from IO Guards and hostile characters also count toward completing the May the 4th challenge. There are plenty of IO guards located at Command Cavern, and wherever the current battle between The Seven and The IO is currently taking place. As of writing, the two sides are currently fighting in the fields just east of Tilted Towers. Be careful if going up against an opponent with a shotgun, as you can still get hurt while blocking against its hits if you get too close.
