With the arrival of a new season, the loot pool evolves, and locating specific items can be challenging. However, Thermite is readily available as floor loot and in chests. You can also purchase it with Bars at Black Markets and Outlaw Vending Machines, which are scattered across Crime City, Seaport City, Lonewolf Lair, and Masked Meadows.

The primary purpose of Thermite is to breach the vaults scattered throughout the map. With Thermite in your inventory, you can place it on the Vault's front and wait for the explosion. Be aware that this process takes time, so target the weak points on the structure to expedite the process. Stay vigilant, as rival players may attempt to snatch the loot you're after.
Alternatively, you can throw Thermite as a tactical explosive. It has a brief timer before detonating into a spectacular display of fireworks, damaging any nearby enemies. While Thermite may not be the most potent explosive in *Fortnite*'s history, it's an effective tool for turning the tide in heated battles.
