This guide details how to obtain and utilize the Typhoon Blade in Fortnite Chapter 6. The Typhoon Blade is a powerful melee weapon offering both combat and mobility advantages.
How to Get the Typhoon Blade
Several methods exist for acquiring the Typhoon Blade:
1. Typhoon Blade Stands: These stands are located at various points across the map, including Flooded Frogs, Magic Mosses, Lost Lake, Nightshift Forest, and Shogun's Solitude. However, their appearance isn't guaranteed each match. Interact with the stand to claim the blade.
2. Chests and Floor Loot: While less reliable, the Typhoon Blade can also be found as floor loot or within chests. This method relies on chance but provides an alternative if stands are already looted.
3. Defeating Demon Warriors: Demon Warriors, marked on the map, spawn near active portals (three per match). Defeating them might yield a Typhoon Blade, though they also drop Oni Masks.
4. Purchasing from Kendo: This guarantees acquisition. Find Kendo northeast of Nightshift Forest. Complete all five stages of his Melee Expertise Quests to unlock the purchase option using Gold Bars.
5. Defeating Shogun X (Mythic Version): Defeating Shogun X in Shogun's Arena awards the Mythic Typhoon Blade.
How to Use the Typhoon Blade
The Typhoon Blade has limited durability. Its abilities include:
- Passive: Increased sprint speed and reduced stamina consumption while equipped.
- Attack: A slash attack (30 damage per hit), chainable into a combo (final hit deals 50 damage). Can be used mid-air for a downward attack (nullifies fall damage).

- Wind Leap: (Jump button during sprint) A leap into the air (nullifies fall damage).
