Fortnite Guardian Shield: Location and How To Use It

Guardian Shield in Fortnite

The new Guardian Shield gives players an incredible advantage in Fortnite by shielding them from harm and their opponents. Here, we will illustrate its capabilities and point out where you can locate it.

The first glimpse of the Guardian Shield was in the Season 1 trailer for Chapter 4. It’s no surprise that everyone wants this thing because it seems to have incredible power. Let us show you how effective this shield is and how to acquire it.

Instructions for acquiring the Guardian Shield in Fortnite

Surprisingly, the Guardian Shield has not yet been implemented into the game. The weekly missions for the next few weeks have been revealed, though, and the shield will be a part of a challenge during Week 5. 

After the Guardian Shield is implemented into the game, which we expect to do within the next week since the quests were online on January 5th.

It’s unclear at this time how to acquire the item. However, we believe it is a normal drop in Fortnite and may be discovered on the ground, in chests, and in supply drops. 

Start by starting a game of Fortnite Battle Royale.

The first thing to do is download Fortnite to the device you’ll be using to play. Begin a Battle Royale match as soon as the game loads, as this is where they are located. Due to the lack of teammate requirements, this can be played in any of the available competitive modes.

Proceed to Step 2: Identify an Oathbound Chest.

Loot can be obtained in two basic ways: either from the location, it spawns in or from a defeated enemy. Since neither their elimination nor their possession of a Guardian Shield can be ensured, the safer bet is to focus on the former.

Guardian Shields can only be obtained from Oathbound Chests, so you’ll have to track down one of those. You might have to go through a lot of chests, as there’s no guarantee it’ll fall the first time. Thankfully, there are several chests at strategic locations like the Citadel.

The third stage entails adding the shield to your inventory

Keep in mind that the shield has a finite lifespan, and only use it when absolutely required. Its supply depletes as soon as it is utilized, so wait until you are completely prepared before resorting to its use.

Further, you’ll want to either hold the shield or throw it

One can employ it as a personal defense weapon in two ways: by holding down the fire button and brandishing it, or by pointing it towards an attacker and firing. Since this allows you to take it with you, it’s a more convenient option. 

On the other hand, if you need to heal or more, throwing it down is also a great way to use it. Do this in the same way you would throw a shield or health pack to another player. As soon as it’s set up, you’ll be safe for the long haul.
