Fortnite Myst Gauntlets: How to Find Them and Dominate

The Myst Gauntlets have just dropped in Fortnite, and if you want to shine this season, they’re the mythic weapon you need to hunt down. They give you a full kit to apply pressure and catch opponents off guard. Here’s how to get them and rack up eliminations in style.

Finding them is simple but risky. The Myst Gauntlets are usually dropped by a boss or found in mythic chests around the map. Learn their spawn location before the match starts and land nearby so you can get there first. Be ready for an early fight you won’t be the only one going for them. The best approach is to loot quickly around the area, grab a decent weapon and some heals, then engage the boss or other players.

Once you have them, that’s when the fun begins. The Myst Gauntlets let you chain quick mid-range attacks and catch players who think they’re safe behind builds. Use them to break structures and immediately follow up with a shotgun blast. It’s a deadly combo: Gauntlets to apply pressure, then a big shotgun hit to finish the job.

Another tip: take advantage of their mobility. The gauntlets usually give you a dash or special jump. Use it to reposition fast, escape heavy fire, or grab high ground mid-fight. The more you move, the harder it is for opponents to hit you.

Be careful with their cooldown, though. You can’t just spam them without thinking. Always keep an eye on the recharge time so you don’t end up without an escape option at the worst moment. The smart play is to alternate between your weapons and the gauntlets, keeping up the pressure without leaving yourself exposed.
