Hey everyone! As we dive deep into Fortnite Chapter 7: Pacific Break in 2025, I can't help but feel this might be one of the most exciting seasonal launches yet. I mean, how often do we get a brand new island to explore with so much fresh content? Between grinding through the Battle Pass and hunting down powerful Mythics, there's never a dull moment. But today, I want to talk about something that's really caught my attention—the Forsaken Vow Blade. With Kill Bill's bride making her debut in the Battle Pass, it's only fitting that we get our hands on this unique melee weapon. So, how exactly do you get it, and what makes it so special? Let's break it down together!

Finding the Forsaken Vow Rift Gate
First things first—to get the Forsaken Vow Blade, you'll need to locate and enter a Forsaken Vow Rift Gate. Now, you might be wondering, "Where do I even start looking?" Don't worry, it's simpler than it sounds! These rift gates are scattered around the new island, and the cool part is that their locations will pop up on your map once you're close enough. So, keep an eye out as you explore. Once you spot one, just head over, interact with it, and jump right in. Easy, right?
But here's where it gets interesting: when you exit the rift gate, not only will you have the Forsaken Vow Blade in your inventory, but you'll also face off against three Kill Bill-themed enemies—Gogo, Yuki, and the Crazy 88 Henchmen. Defeating them drops extra loot, and it’s a perfect opportunity to knock out two quests right away: hitting opponents with the Vengeance Dash and taking down Gogo and Yuki after entering the rift. Talk about efficiency!
Mastering the Forsaken Vow Blade's Attacks
Now, let's talk about how this blade works in combat. It's a melee weapon designed for close-quarters action, and it reminds me a lot of the Typhoon Blade from Chapter 6 Season 1. But wait, is it just a reskin? Absolutely not! Unlike the Typhoon Blade, the Forsaken Vow Blade doesn't give you a speed boost or double jump ability. Instead, it focuses on raw, versatile attacks. Plus, it has a durability bar that decreases with use—once it hits zero, the blade is gone, so make every swing count!
Here’s a quick breakdown of its three main attacks:
-
Song of Steel (Fire Button): This is your basic melee combo. Tap the fire button to chain together attacks, each dealing 35 damage. It’s perfect for quick, relentless strikes when you’re up close and personal.
-
Falling Blossom (Fire Button Midair): Jump and press the fire button to unleash a downward slam that deals 70 damage. The best part? It completely negates fall damage, making it a lifesaver for aggressive dives or quick escapes.
-
Vengeance Dash (Aim Button): This is the blade’s signature move! Hold the aim button to charge a ranged melee attack that deals 35 damage and knocks back opponents. It uses one of three charges (with a 10-second cooldown per use) and also eliminates fall damage. Ideal for closing gaps or creating space!
Why the Forsaken Vow Blade Stands Out
So, why should you bother with this weapon? Well, for starters, it’s not just another item in the loot pool. With Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 1 shaking things up—bringing back classics like the Dual Micro SMGs while introducing new gear like the Wingsuit—the Forsaken Vow Blade adds a unique melee option that rewards skill and timing. Its attacks are fluid, and the ability to avoid fall damage with two of its moves adds a layer of tactical depth. Whether you're completing quests or dominating in close combat, this blade is a game-changer.
But remember, durability is key! Here’s a quick tip: use the Vengeance Dash sparingly to conserve charges for crucial moments. And don’t forget—defeating Gogo and Yuki after grabbing the blade gives you a head start on those quests. So, what are you waiting for? Head to those rift gates and unleash the power of the Forsaken Vow Blade today! ️
