How to find the Grapple Blade in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 1

Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 1 has once again reshuffled the loot pool, adding new weapons and items. One of them is the Grappler Blade that players will find exceptionally useful and here's how you can find it in Fortnite.

Where to find the Grapple Blade in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 1

The Grapple Blade is one of the new weapons added this season and although it is scattered across the map, I found the blade at the Classy Courts POI. This POI is located at the northernmost part of the map and is one of the new locations in Chapter 5 Season 1. To equip the Grapple Blade, press the interact or pick up keybind to add it to your inventory.

The Grapple Blade can be found as part of floor loot, chests, and epic chests. I recommend visiting new POIs like Classy Courts, Grand Glacier, and Lavish Lair to find this item quickly. The Grapple Blade is an exceptional rotational tool that you can use to evade enemies or while fighting them.

To use it, aim at any hard surface or an opponent. All you need to do is aim right at the target and grapple towards it. It functions a lot like the ODM Gear and can deal melee damage if you are targeting an opponent. However, you need to be in close proximity to the enemy to deal damage. The Grapple Blade works best as a mobility item to quickly cover distances in the absence of a vehicle. For instance, you can use the blade to reposition quickly after collecting a Society Medallion by defeating bosses.
