Fortnite Chapter 6: Collecting Mineral Samples with Plasma Burst Laser

The Wanted: Joss Outlaw Quests in *Fortnite* Chapter 6, Season 2 are a thrilling challenge for any player. The Big Dill challenge has stirred up quite the excitement, but it's just the beginning. Here's a detailed guide on how to collect mineral samples using the Plasma Burst Laser in *Fortnite*.

How To Find the Plasma Burst Laser in Fortnite

The Plasma Burst Laser is a new addition to the arsenal in the Lawless season, designed specifically for cracking open Vaults spread across the map. As an Epic item, it's not the easiest to find. Your best bet is to check Points of Interest (POIs) that have Vaults, like Crime City, which is packed with Go Bags and Chests. Alternatively, you can purchase the Plasma Burst Laser from two Black Markets for 600 Gold each. While one is located south of Seaport City, the Black Market near Magic Mosses is more convenient, especially since your next task requires a return to Joss' lab to analyze the mineral samples.

How To Collect Mineral Samples Using the Plasma Burst Laser on Stone Structures in Fortnite

Once you've equipped your Plasma Burst Laser, your next step is to find a suitable stone structure. It's crucial to note that not just any stone will suffice. Our attempts to target permanent stone structures in *Fortnite* were unsuccessful. Instead, you need a destructible piece of stone that can be broken with your Pickaxe.

Upon locating the right stone, aim your Plasma Burst Laser and start firing. The stone will eventually crumble, but the mineral samples won't automatically enter your inventory. Look for a small piece of rock that drops to the ground once the structure is destroyed. Interact with this rock to collect the mineral samples and complete the Quest.

With the samples collected, you shouldn't have to travel far to return to Joss and analyze them. The game will guide you to the specific spot inside her lab. After interacting with the designated area, you'll earn additional XP and successfully complete the Wanted: Joss Outlaw Quests. You can then continue enjoying *Fortnite* with your newly unlocked items.

And that's how you collect mineral samples using the Plasma Burst Laser in *Fortnite* Chapter 6. For more exciting content, check out all the rumored collaborations for the Lawless season.
