You can find both the Rail Gun and a Recon Scanner as floor loot or inside Chests. Since these are high-rarity items, we recommend visiting the best Fortnite landing spots if you want to acquire them quickly.
Once you’ve found both of these items, you can use the Rail Gun to damage your opponents by simply firing at them. However, this weapon can take some time to recharge, so be sure to find cover to hide behind.

You can use the Rail Gun to deal damage from 50 meters or more by placing a ping marker on the ground to check how much distance there is between you and your enemy. If the marker shows that you’re too close, you can just step back.
In order to use the Recon Scanner, you’ll need to aim it at the ground before firing. This will mark all nearby enemies, so we recommend doing it in a location with a high number of players during the match.
Be sure to use the Rail Gun to dish out damage within 30 seconds of marking enemies with the Recon Scanner in order to complete one of the objectives. These Quests are easy to complete, and you should be able to get them done in a single match.
