How To Get a Jedi Padawan Lightsaber In Fortnite
While many weapons inFortnitecan be looted from the ground or found within Chests, the Jedi Padawan Lightsaber is a different story. To get the Jedi Padawan Lighsaber, players will have tovisit a hologram of Rey, whichspawns in random locations following the closing of the first storm circle.

TheJedi Padawan Lightsaberis pretty much identical to all other lightsabers inFortnite,dealing 40 damage per hit,while also granting the player increased sprint speed andthe ability to double jump (Force Jump).However, the unique aspect of the Jedi Padawan Lightsaber is that players canmake use of the Force Push ability.Here is a quick breakdown of how to use the Jedi Padawan Lightsaber:
How To Use The Force Push Force Ability In Fortnite
The Force Push ability is a unique attack that players can perform with the Jedi Padawan Lightsaber upon acquiring it from Rey. To use it, players simply need topress the Shoot Button while blocking with the Lightsaber.
Doing so will release a shockwave in front of the player,knocking enemies back and destroying structuresin the immediate vicinity. While the Force Push ability does not deal direct damage to players, those knocked from heights can take fall damage, making it an excellent strategy for displacing enemies in certain scenarios.
After each use,the Force Push ability enters a short cooldown.Furthermore, the ability isonly accessible to those who learn it from Reyby speaking to her hologram. This means that, while players can loot the Jedi Padawan Lightsaber from defeated enemies, they cannot gain access to the Force Push ability this way.
