Now, if you want this weapon, you first need to defeat the Ice King boss at Frigid Fortress. This is a newly added location on the map.
This has replaced the Clawsy Lodge and now features a massive castle reminiscent of classic Fortnite snow biomes.
You will find Ice King in or around the castle somewhere. But as an Echo Boss, he can also appear in other icy regions, which also include Dark Dominion.
After you defeat him, he will drop this mythic weapon, which you can pick up and use in the match.

How to defeat Ice King in Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 2?
This ain’t an easy fight in the game. This boss is also accompanied by Lady Winterforst, which makes this quite difficult.
Here’s the best strategy that you can go for:
- The first stage is to kill Lady Winterfrost, who uses healing potions like Chug Splashes to heal the Ice King.
- Keep distant – The Ice King uses the frost attacks that are at a distance and can be very devastating.
- Watch out for his ultimate ability: When he charges a bright blue aura, rapidly build defenses or use mobility items to flee.
