Fortnite Chapter 6: Collect Mineral Samples with Plasma Burst Laser

by Aurora May 27,2025

The Wanted: Joss Outlaw Quests in *Fortnite* Chapter 6, Season 2 are designed to challenge even the most seasoned players. The Big Dill challenge is just the beginning, with the quest to collect mineral samples using the Plasma Burst Laser in *Fortnite* proving to be particularly demanding. Here's a detailed guide on how to accomplish this task.

How to Find the Plasma Burst Laser in Fortnite

The Plasma Burst Laser, introduced in the Lawless season, is an essential tool for breaking into Vaults across the map. As an Epic item, it's not easy to find, but your best bet is to search Points of Interest (POIs) with Vaults, such as Crime City, which is packed with Go Bags and Chests. Alternatively, you can purchase the Plasma Burst Laser at two Black Markets for 600 Gold each. The Black Market near Magic Mosses is particularly convenient, as it's closer to Joss' lab, where you'll need to head next for the subsequent challenge.

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

Mineral Samples as part of an article about how to collect them using the Plasma Burst Rifle in Fortnite. Once you've secured the Plasma Burst Laser, your next task is to find a stone structure. Note that not all stone structures will yield mineral samples; you need one that can be destroyed. After some trial and error, it's clear that you must locate a breakable stone piece, something you could take down with your Pickaxe.

With your target in sight, aim the Plasma Burst Laser at the stone and keep firing until it breaks. Don't expect the mineral samples to appear in your inventory immediately. Instead, look for a small piece of rock that will drop to the ground once the structure is destroyed. Interact with this rock to collect the mineral samples and complete the Quest.

After collecting the samples, you won't have to travel far to reach Joss' lab. The game will guide you to the exact spot inside the lab where you need to go. Interact with the designated area to analyze the samples, earning additional XP and successfully wrapping up the Wanted: Joss Outlaw Quests. From there, you can return to regular *Fortnite* gameplay and enjoy the new items you've unlocked.

That's 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 in the Lawless season.

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