How To Collect Mineral Samples Using the Plasma Burst Laser in Fortnite Chapter 6

The Wanted: Joss Outlaw Quests in *Fortnite* Chapter 6, Season 2 are a true test of skill and patience. The Big Dill challenge has players buzzing, and it's just the beginning of a series of demanding tasks. Here’s your 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 is a fresh addition to the arsenal in the Lawless season, renowned for its ability to breach Vaults across the map. As an Epic item, it's not exactly common. Your best bet for snagging one is to hit up Points of Interest (POIs) with Vaults, like Crime City, which is packed with Go Bags and Chests. Alternatively, you can purchase the Plasma Burst Laser at two Black Markets on the map for 600 Gold each. While the Black Market south of Seaport City is an option, the one near Magic Mosses is more strategic, as the subsequent challenge requires a return trip to Joss' lab for sample analysis.

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

Once you've secured your Epic weapon, the next step is to find a suitable stone structure. Not just any stone will suffice; it must be one that can be destroyed. The Escapist's attempt to target a permanent stone structure in *Fortnite* yielded no results. You need to locate a breakable piece of stone, something you could take down with your Pickaxe.

With your target in sight, aim the Plasma Burst Laser at the stone and fire away. Keep at it until the stone crumbles. Don't expect the mineral samples to magically appear in your inventory; instead, a small piece of rock will drop to the ground once the stone is destroyed. You'll need to interact with this rock to collect the samples and complete the Quest.

If you've followed these steps correctly, you won't have to venture far to return to Joss and analyze the samples. The game will guide you to the right spot inside her lab. A simple press of the interact button there will net you additional XP and mark the end of the Wanted: Joss Outlaw Quests. You can then dive back into the world of *Fortnite*, flaunting your newly unlocked items.

And that's the complete guide on how to collect mineral samples using the Plasma Burst Laser in *Fortnite* Chapter 6. For those eager for more, keep an eye out for all the rumored collaborations coming up in the Lawless season.

*Fortnite is available to play on various platforms, including the Meta Quest 2 and 3.*
