How To Use Thermite in Fortnite Chapter 6, Season 2

The primary purpose of Thermite is to breach the vaults scattered across the map. With Thermite in your inventory, approach a Vault and place it on the front. It'll take some time to burn through, so target the weak points on the structure to speed up the process. Stay vigilant, as other players will be eager to snatch the loot you're after.

Another way to use Thermite is by throwing it. It has a short delay before exploding, but once it does, it unleashes a barrage of explosives, damaging any nearby enemies. While Thermite might not be the most potent explosive in *Fortnite*'s arsenal, it's a handy tool for turning the tide in a heated battle.
