Exotic weapons are the best you can get in Fortnite and as part of the Week 2 challenges, you’ll need to find one and wield it against opponents. Exotics can be purchased from NPCs found in specific locations around the battle royale map for a certain amount of Gold Bars, which you can earn from eliminations, chests, ATMs and by completing bounties. There are six exotics in Fortnite right now, so here’s where to find them.
