Mace Windu location in Fortnite Star Wars Galactic Battle
Unfortunately, Mace Windudoesn’t have a fixed spawn locationon the island. He can, however, always be found at thepurpleTraining Rift Gateiconson the map.
Mace Windu also doesn’t appear as an actual character on the map. Instead, he’s a temporary hologram who remains only until a player interacts with him. This makes him a decently tricky individual to meet up with.
When does Mace Windu spawn in Fortnite Star Wars Galactic Battle?
Mace Windu’s Training Rift Gate generally seems to spawnaround one or two minutesinto each match after the first storm circle has passed. His appearance is fairly random and unpredictable, though, so just watch out for the Purple Lightsaber icon on your map to have the best chance of spotting his arrival.
How to get a Purple Lightsaber in Fortnite Star Wars Galactic Battle
To acquire a Purple Lightsaber, you need tobe the first one through one of Mace Windu’s Training Rift Gates. He only offers one at each gate, so if someone beats you to it, you cannot get his weapon from that gate anymore, as it disappears immediately after.
While mostNPCs you can find around the maphave a few items for sale, Mace Windu is a special hologram character who has nothing for sale and only one dialogue option. All other hologram characters function the same and exist solely to give you a shot at acquiring aLightsaberandforce abilities.
Although the main way to get a Purple Lightsaber is from Mace Windu himself, you can also earn one by defeating players who have one in their inventory. You don’t get force training from Mace Windu using this method, though, which means you won’t have access to his special force abilities.
What does the Purple Lightsaber do in Fortnite Star Wars Galactic Battle?
The Purple Lightsaber is amelee weaponthat functions exactly the same as all other Lightsabers, so you may use to to slice down enemies and unlock the Force Jump move. If you acquire this weapon directly from Mace Windu, you also get theForce Pullability with it.
Mace Windu’s Force Pull ability can bring all nearby objects towards you. If you aim it at large structures like buildings, you’ll rip them apart piece by piece. This power also works against players and vehicles likeTIE Fighters. I even used it to damage structures from beyond 22 meters away duringHan Solo’s story quests, so it’s pretty versatile and powerful in most situations.
