The Kpop Demon Hunters are taking over Fortnite, bringing with them exciting new modes to play and fresh items to discover. Among these, one item that’s grabbing the attention of players is **Rumi’s Empowered Greatsword**. This powerful weapon is essential for completing certain challenges and earning valuable XP for your Battle Pass.
### How to Get Rumi’s Empowered Sword in Fortnite
Rumi’s Empowered Sword can appear as floor loot or drop from chests, with a higher chance of spawning from rare chests. However, the sword’s spawn rate seems to be quite rare. In fact, it took me five rounds before I finally came across one, which appeared as ground loot.
Given its rarity and power, Rumi’s Empowered Sword is classified as a Mythic item, which explains the low spawn frequency.
### Features and Gameplay Tips
The sword offers a unique combat style with a three-strike combo that you can perform by pressing the melee button three times. Additionally, while aiming down sights with the sword equipped, you can fire an energy projectile.
An interesting mechanic is that if you use the energy projectile while in mid-air, your character will hover as the weapon charges. You can also perform a downward slam attack, which deals damage in a small area of effect.
While the weapon’s swings and combos are relatively slow, it compensates by delivering very powerful hits. Because of its slower speed, it can be risky to confront opponents who are aware of your position. The best strategy is to sneak up behind enemies and use the combo to maximize damage and complete your challenge objectives.
Keep these tips in mind, and you’ll be well on your way to mastering Rumi’s Empowered Greatsword and progressing through your Fortnite challenges!
