Fortnite’s “Absolute Doom”season has officially introduced Iron Man mythics into Chapter 5 Season 4, featuring both Iron Man’s Combat Kit and Flight Kit.
Epic’s 31.20 update has rolled out the Mark 45 skin along with weaponry from Iron Man’s suit in the Battle Royale. These elements were initially hinted at in this season’s launch trailer for Fortnite, leading many to speculate the return of the Repulsor Gloves from Chapter 2 Season 4.
However, what players will find is a brand-new weapon variant called Iron Man’s Combat Kit, complemented by his Flight Kit, allowing for quick movement across the island.
Both items are categorized as powerful mythic loot, and here’s how you can snag them.
Where to Find Iron Man’s Combat Kit and Flight Kit
You can consistently find Iron Man’s Combat Kit and Flight Kit inside Stark Mobile Armories.
To obtain Iron Man’s Combat Kit and Flight Kit, you must look for them within Stark Industries chests or by claiming them from Iron Man versions of the Stark Mobile Armories. These can be located at any of the six landing pad spots around the Battle Royale island map.
At each landing pad location, there will always be one Stark Industries chest nearby. These chests can contain either Iron Man’s Combat Kit or Flight Kit mythics, alongside other items and consumables.
You can also purchase the Combat Kit from the Iron Man NPC for 600 Gold Bars at the windmill located near the Grim Gate POI during any match.
How to Hit Opponents with Iron Man’s Combat Kit Unibeam and Repulsors
With Iron Man’s Unibeam and Repulsors, you’ll be equipped with powerful weaponry.
Once you’ve acquired and equipped the Combat Kit, you can utilize Iron Man’s Unibeam and Repulsor gauntlets as your weapons.
Here’s how to leverage the Iron Man Combat Kit abilities:
- Unibeam – Press your aim button to charge and unleash a long-range beam
- Repulsors – Press your fire button to shoot repulsor beams
The Repulsors will serve as your primary weapon, firing much more rapidly than the Unibeam. However, keep in mind that they can overheat if used continuously without pause.
The Unibeam, while slower and more challenging to aim since it requires charging, delivers substantial damage to both opponents and structures when successfully fired.
You’ll need to utilize the Unibeam to complete the Week 5 challenge: “Hit opponents with the Iron Man Combat Kit Unibeam.” After successfully hitting two different enemies with the beam, you’ll be rewarded with 20,000 XP.
How to Launch with Iron Man’s Flight Kit
Iron Man’s Flight Kit allows for rapid ascension into the skies.
To activate Iron Man’s Flight Kit, you must equip it in your inventory and press the jump button on your controller to soar into the sky. It operates similarly to War Machine’s Hover Jets, but with better performance and faster traversal across the island map.
However, you must keep the Flight Kit equipped while using it, unlike the Hover Jets which can be utilized independently.
Here’s how to use all the Iron Man Flight Kit abilities:
- Launch – Press your jump button to take off into the sky
- Ascend – Hold the jump button to rise higher
- Unibeam – While flying, press the ADS button to shoot Unibeam at enemies
- Descend – Press your crouch button to land gradually
- Dodge – Use the switch weapon and reload buttons to dodge left and right
- Ram Attack – Press your fire button to slam down and inflict damage to enemies and structures
Optimal Method to Use Iron Man Mythics in Fortnite
Efficiently utilizing the Flight Kit to navigate the map is crucial.
The most effective way to utilize Iron Man’s mythics is by employing the Flight Kit for expedient travel across the Fortnite island, whether you are rotating within storm circles, gathering loot, securing high ground, launching attacks with your Unibeam, or making a hasty retreat.
Among the two weapons in your Combat Kit, the Repulsors are especially vital. As long as they do not overheat, you can deliver rapid-fire blasts to your adversaries at close or medium-to-long range. They also auto-aim at nearby enemies, enhancing accuracy compared to War Machine’s Arsenal.
Nevertheless, the Unibeam can be extremely potent from a distance or against stationary foes. Similar to utilizing a Rail Gun, a successful hit will deal exceptionally high damage.
Regarding the Ram Attack, it is less effective unless you’re confident your foes are weakened, or your team is coordinating an assault at close range. While it can deal considerable damage, the attack can be missed easily, leaving you vulnerable in close proximity to enemies.
Therefore, we recommend employing the Ram Attack primarily to demolish enemy structures or cause area damage.
Now that you’re equipped with the knowledge of where to find and purchase Iron Man’s mythic items in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4, you’re well-prepared for your next matches!
