You can get Legendary items in Fortnite by killing players carrying them and opening chests all over the Island. If you are not among the RNG’s favorites, you can also get Legendary weapons by exchanging Dill Bits at any Black Market. The Chapter 6 Season 2 map features a total of three markets, with each offering the following selection of Legendaries. Each of the below will cost one Dill Bit.

  • Magic Mosses Black Market: Striker Burst Rifle / Veiled Precision SMG
  • Shiny Shafts/Crime City Black Market: Sticky Grenade Launcher / Sentinel Pump Shotgun
  • Southeast Black Market: Falcon Eye Sniper / Striker Burst Rifle

You can check out the locations of all the markets in the image below, as well as how to get the Dill Bits needed to buy the weapons by heading further down.

As all of the markets will be located underground, it’s also not uncommon to see players camping in their vicinity to get easy bits (and hopefully some Mythics). So get ready before going in. If on a squad, it will also not hurt to have a few of your teammates scout the area beforehand and keep watch as you make the purchases.

Unless you eliminate a player carrying it or loot the item amidst a firefight, the only way to get Dill Bits in Fortnite is by opening vaults and then grabbing it from their display cases. Each vault will house one bit and can only be opened by using Thermite. You can check out the locations of all of them below:

Keep in mind that if you choose to go for the Crime City vault, Fletcher Kane will spawn together with the usual guards looking to get in your way. To make quick work of the boss and get both his Mythic Baron’s Double Down Pistol and the Unstoppable Medallion, take a look at our How to defeat Fletcher Kane in Fortnite Chapter 6, Season 2 guide.
