Hammer Revolver Mythic Location in Fortnite (Defeat Zadie)

The Mythic Hammer Revolver is a heavy-ammo automatic revolver carried by the boss NPC Zadie in Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 2. To pick it up, you have to find Zadie at one of her three possible spawn points, eliminate her, and grab the gold-tier weapon she drops.

🎯
Quick answer: Defeat the boss Zadie. She spawns at one of three locations each match — a snowy mountain peak, north of Snooty Steppes, and near Snooty Steppes itself. Check the mini-map for the skull icon to confirm her location.

Where Zadie spawns

Zadie rotates between three fixed spawn points every match, and only one is active per game. The fastest way to confirm her location is to glide toward the closest spot and watch the mini-map for the skull icon that marks a boss NPC.

Spawn areaNotes
Snowy mountain peakHigh elevation; use the zipline up the cliff face and the nearby jump pad to reroute fast if she isn't here.
North of Snooty SteppesOpen terrain, easy to land directly on top of.
Near Snooty SteppesFurthest of the three from common drop paths, so check it last.

Zadie has also been spotted at locations like Squiggly Shores during specific anomaly events, but the three rotating spawns above are her standard pattern.

How to defeat Zadie

Zadie is aggressive at close to mid range and uses bouncing dynamite-style grenades to flush you out of cover. Treat her like any standard boss fight: keep distance, break line of sight, and burst her down between her grenade throws.

Step 1: Land directly on the structure where Zadie patrols. Dropping on top of her removes her positional advantage and lets you open with a shotgun or SMG before she can reposition.

Step 2: Stay mobile when she throws explosives. Her grenades bounce, so strafing sideways and using small walls or terrain to absorb the blast is more effective than backing up in a straight line.

Step 3: Pick up the Mythic Hammer Revolver from her loot pile. The drop also includes ammo and gold bars, and the weapon will be labeled HAMMER REVOLVER MYTHIC on the pickup prompt.

Mythic Hammer Revolver stats

The Hammer Revolver is an automatic revolver that uses heavy ammo. It hits hard per shot but has a small six-round magazine, so headshots matter, and ammo discipline matters more.

StatMythic value
Damage (body)69
Headshot multiplier2.0x (up to 138)
Fire rate2.25
Magazine size6
Reload time1.91s
Ammo typeHeavy

Each shot produces a visible muzzle shockwave effect, which makes the weapon easy to identify by sound and sight in a fight.


Rarity tiers and floor loot

Zadie is the only guaranteed source of the Mythic version, but lower rarities of the Hammer Revolver appear in the regular loot pool. You can pull Uncommon variants from chests and floor loot at locations like Command Cavern, which is useful early game while you decide whether to commit to the Zadie fight.

How to confirm you got the right drop

When you walk over Zadie's loot, the pickup prompt will read HAMMER REVOLVER MYTHIC with a gold weapon icon. The Mythic version glows yellow on the ground and shows 69 base damage on the inventory tooltip. If the pickup says Uncommon, Rare, or Epic, that's a regular floor-loot Hammer Revolver, not Zadie's drop.

⚠️
If the skull icon doesn't appear on the mini-map at any of the three spots, Zadie hasn't spawned in that lobby's rotation for that match. Reload into a new game rather than searching the rest of the map.

Showdown rewards connection

The Hammer Revolver is also tied to Team Ice King's milestone rewards in Showdown Act II: The Elites, released with the v40.20 update. Hitting Showdown milestones on the Ice King side adds the weapon to the island's loot pool alongside the IO Recon Scanner, Reforged Infinity Blade, and Slipstream activation in ice biomes. Even with those rewards unlocked, the Mythic tier still only comes from Zadie.

The Hammer Revolver pairs well with mobility tools like the Seven Power Gloves, since the weapon's slow fire rate and small clip benefit from elevation and surprise angles. Use it as your primary mid-range option and keep a shotgun in the second slot for close encounters.
