How to Get the Wookie Bowcaster in Fortnite
Learn how to get the Wookie Bowcaster in Fortnite Star Wars quest by either finding Imperial Chests or saving Chewbacca with this guide.
The Fortnite Star Wars crossover event has brought exciting new items, from skins to weapons, into the Battle Royale. Among the new additions is the Wookie Bowcaster weapon. This article breaks down the steps to obtain this Wookie Bowcaster in Fortnite.
How to Get the Wookie Bowcaster in Fortnite
There are two primary options to secure the Wookie Bowcaster in Fortnite: search Imperial Chests or rescue the legendary Chewbacca himself.
Option 1: Search Imperial Chests
Scattered across the Fortnite island, you’ll find Imperial Outposts. These outposts are marked by blue smoke, making them easy to spot.
Inside the white tents at these outposts, you’ll find Imperial Crates, which are black boxes with red stripes emitting a golden glow. By looting these crates, you have a chance to find either the Wookiee Bowcaster or the E-11 Imperial Blaster.
While the Bowcaster isn’t guaranteed, persistence and thorough searching should eventually yield the desired weapon.
Option 2: Rescue Chewbacca
The second option is a more direct approach – rescue Chewbacca from the clutches of the Empire. In each match, Chewbacca will spawn at a random Imperial Outpost, indicated by blue smoke in the sky.
Take out the Stormtroopers at the outpost to earn the Wookie Bowcaster from Chewbacca himself. However, be prepared for intense competition as other players may also be vying for this coveted prize.
Using the Wookie Bowcaster
The Wookie Bowcaster has a unique way of shooting, so practice with it. This traditional laser projectile weapon fires individual bolts quickly or can be charged up to shoot a heavier explosive bolt.
The Bowcaster deals significant damage, making it a great option for close-range combats, similar to an SMG. Just watch out for the recoil and adjust your aim to stay accurate.
Whether you choose to search for Imperial Chests or rescue Chewbacca, obtaining the Wookie Bowcaster in Fortnite Star Wars event is a thrilling experience.
May the Force be with you in your quest for this weapon, and may it serve you well in your journey in other Fortnite Star Wars Quests.
