Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 3 added a biome that players had never seen before, the wasteland. There are several biomes on the Battle Royale map, but this one is undoubtely the most hectic biome of them all. Players are encouraged to grab a vehicle and mod them at service stations, and there Flaming Boost Hoops everywhere to boost cars with the power of Nitro.
All Character Locations in Fortnite Chapter 7
Friendly NPCs provide helpful services in Fortnite, and this guide will tell players where to find each one.
In the wasteland, gamers can also come across mighty bosses. This guide focuses on the Machinist, one of the three Wasteland Warriors. It will show players where they can find these bosses and how to take them down in order to take their unique items.
How to Find the Machinist
Ringmaster Scarr is the only one of the three bosses has that a fixed locations, so players will always find her at the Nitrodrome no matter what. The Machinist, just like Megalo Don, can either be found at her main named location or wandering around the map.
To find the Machinist in Fortnite, players must locate her Medallion's marker once the Battle Bus starts its route over the island; it looks like a mechanical gear. The Machinist may spawn at Redline Rig, and if she does, that means she's not on the move. If not, then she's in her car, driving around the island; in this case, gamers will have to pay attention to her marker on the map in order to find her.
How to Defeat the Machinist
Before approaching the Machinist to try and defeat her, gamers should analyze where she spawned. If she at Redline Rig, it'll be much easier to start attacking her becase she won't be inside a vehicle - she won't be as protected, as she will simply be wandering around the rig. In this case, players can simply find a weapon, shield up and start their offense immediately.
However, if the Machinist spawned on another random location of the map, then the best way to approach her is to find a vehicle, attach a turret mod to it, find some nitro, and chase her while shooting their weapon whenever they get close enough. To get the Machinist to get out of her car, players have to destroy her shields.
Regardless of where she spawns, she will always have her henchmen protecting her. However, if she's out in the world, they will be in control of the war bus, so players must be even more careful. To avoid being too overwhelmed, gamers might want to take out these minions before focusing on the boss.
Once the Machinist's shields are gone, she will throw a turret on the ground. These turrets are quite aggressive, so players must destroy it immediately to avoid taking too much damage.
Then, the only thing gamers have to do is shoot until the Machinist is eliminated. Once she's gone, any of her hostile minions or machines will vanish.
