How to get Slone’s Striker Burst Rifle in Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 2

Slone is one of the high-ranking members of The Imagined Order and one of the unfriendly NPCs you can run into that will shoot on sight. Her ability to clone herself makes her one of the most challenging bosses to kill, but you can scoop up her Mythic assault rifle if you can manage it. Here's how.

Slone's Location

Slone is located at The Fortress, the giant ground-digging machinery found Southeast of the Command Cavern. She usually spawns inside the machine or just at its base opening. A few IO guards are also patrolling around the place, so you may want to take them out first. A good spot to land would probably be at the nearby gas station or the top of the Fortress. This gives you a chance to shield up and grab some gear before attempting to fight her.

Fighting Slone and her clones

Fighting Slone is the tricky part, especially if you're playing solo. She will deploy her clones as soon as you get close to her. These clones will mimic her exactly, making it almost impossible to pick out which one is the real Slone. It also means you will have three enemies firing at you at once. While it may be possible to take out the clones and then Slone herself, it's easier if you focus your fire directly on the real Slone.

As you're approaching her, keep an eye on her location. When she deploys her clones, you should be able to have her pinpointed beforehand. This means you can fire directly at her. Once she is defeated, her clones will automatically be defeated, meaning you don't necessarily have to fight them. However, you will want to dodge their shots as much as possible. Standing behind cover, watching your shields and health, and keeping an eye on any other lurking players is the best way to take down Slone efficiently.

Claim the Mythic Striker Burst Rifle

Once you defeat Slone, she will drop her Mythic Striker Burst Rifle for you to claim. This looks similar to Striker Bursts' other rarities but with improved DPS and a better scoped red-dot sight. Like any Mythic, this weapon is well worth the battle to attain it.
