How to Obtain Captain America’s Shield in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4

With the release of the new Fortnite x Marvel Absolute Doom season, Epic Games has chosen to bring back a well-known but often overlooked mythic item, Captain America’s Shield.

Whether or not you are a fan of Captain Jonesy’s skin, it is impossible to deny the excitement of throwing his shield and enjoying the satisfaction of deflecting bullets with it in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4.

As with all mythics, finding Captain America’s Shield in the open is not possible. Instead, you must choose between two alternatives to obtain Steve Rogers’ preferred weapon.

Where to find the Captain America Shield in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4

Captain America’s Shield Mythic can be obtained from Avengers Chests and Doom Chests in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4, as well as from floor loot. These chests can be located in the recently added POIs – The Raft, Doomstadt, and Castle Doom, and can also be found inside Weapon Bunkers.

Bash, Throw or Block your way using Captain America’s Shield in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4.

Alternatively, you can purchase one Captain America’s Shield from the Ship It! Station, located southeast of The Raft, by exchanging 300 Gold Bars with Captain Jonesy NPC.

How to Use the Captain America Shield in Fortnite

In Fortnite, you have the ability to utilize Captain America’s Shield by throwing it at enemies or structures, sprinting and bashing enemies, or using it to block incoming damage. Here is how you can activate all of these actions:

By pressing the fire button or key, you have the ability to launch Captain America’s Shield.
By pressing the aim button or key, you can utilize the shield to defend against incoming damage.
With sprint enabled and the shield equipped, you have the ability to inflict Bash Damage on enemies.

Although throwing your shield can be effective, there are a few things to keep in mind. For one, your shield will return to you after causing damage, but it will keep bouncing if it hits an obstacle or wall. Additionally, the amount of damage it inflicts varies depending on the distance at which you throw it.

Now that you have discovered the method for obtaining the Captain America Shield, explore the various other mythics that are accessible in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4, such as Doctor Doom’s Arcane Gauntlets.
