Fortnite Chapter 6: Collect Mineral Samples with Plasma Burst Laser

The Wanted: Joss Outlaw Quests in *Fortnite* Chapter 6, Season 2 push players to their limits. The Big Dill challenge is just the beginning, with many more demanding tasks on the horizon. Here’s a comprehensive 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, a new addition to *Fortnite* during the Lawless season, is essential for cracking into Vaults across the map. As an Epic item, it's not easy to find, but your best bet is to search Points of Interest (POIs) with Vaults like Crime City, which is packed with Go Bags and Chests. Additionally, two Black Markets on the map offer the Plasma Burst Laser for 600 Gold. The Black Market near Magic Mosses is particularly strategic, as it's close to Joss' lab, where you'll need to analyze the mineral samples next.

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

Once you've secured the Plasma Burst Laser, the next step is to find a suitable stone structure. Simply targeting any stone won't suffice; the structure must be breakable. After some trial and error, it's clear that only destructible stone pieces will yield mineral samples. Use your Pickaxe to find a breakable stone structure, then aim your Plasma Burst Laser at it and fire away until it shatters. A small piece of rock will drop to the ground upon destruction. You must interact with this rock to collect the mineral samples, as they won't automatically appear in your inventory.

With the samples in hand, head back to Joss' lab, conveniently located near the Magic Mosses Black Market. The game will guide you to the exact spot within her lab where you need to analyze the samples. Once you interact with the designated area, you'll earn additional XP and complete the Wanted: Joss Outlaw Quests. After that, you can return to normal gameplay in *Fortnite* and flaunt your newly unlocked items.

And that's the detailed process of collecting mineral samples using the Plasma Burst Laser in *Fortnite* Chapter 6. For more exciting updates, check out the rumored collaborations for the Lawless season.
