How to find Imperial Weapons in Fortnite x Star Wars (E-11 Blaster Rifle)

The Imperial Weapons are a big part of the Fortnite x Star Wars event collaboration.

Imperial Weapons are special Mythic guns added to Fortnite for the Star Wars collaboration. During the event, you can complete several Star Wars-themed quests to earn extra XP and unlock exclusive cosmetics.

The quest “Deal damage to opponents who are wielding an Imperial Weapon” is unusual because it forces you to attack other characters while they’re using these weapons. But there’s an easy trick to complete this Fortnite quest. You can take advantage to investigate Imperial Roadblocks in different matches.

How to deal damage to opponents wielding an Imperial Weapon

While you can complete this quest by attacking other players who happen to be using Imperial Weapons, the easiest method is to deal damage to Stormtroopers. Although they’re not player-controlled characters, they count as opponents for this quest. The best strategy for completing this quest is to head to an Imperial Roadblock with Stormtroopers early in the match.

To find Stormtroopers and get their E-11 Blaster Rifles, you must head to Imperial Roadblocks spread around the map. You can find them in the following locations:

  • On the island northeast of Rebel’s Roost. That’s also where Darth Vader is.
  • On the bridge southeast of Classy Courts.
  • South of Reckless Railways, close to the bridge.
  • Southwest of Pleasant Plaza, near the road.
  • Far south of Fencing Fields.
  • South of Lavish Lair, close to the POI.

What are the Imperial weapons in Fortnite x Star Wars?

The only imperial weapon in Fortnite x Star Wars is the E-11 Blaster Rifle, a Mythic weapon with 30 base damage, 4.75 fire rate, and infinite ammo. Stormtroopers on Imperial Roadblocks carry them, and killing them will drop them for you to use instead.

The following Fortnite x Star Wars weapons don’t count as Imperial Weapons, so taking down enemies who hold them will not let you progress through the quest.

  • Wookie Bowcaster: A Mythic bow with 110 base damage, a fire rate of two, and infinite ammo. Chewbacca drops one for you after you help it defeat all Stormtroopers in an area.
  • Darth Vader’s Lightsaber: A Mythic melee weapon dealing 40 to 150 damage.

You can find both weapons in all locations listed above, as they’re where you find Stormtroopers and Chewbacca. Unlike LEGO Fortnite, there are no special Star Wars points of interest in Battle Royale.
