Mythic weapons in Fortnite Reload aren't just stronger versions of what you'd find in a regular chest. They're a different category entirely — limited in number per match, unpredictable in where they spawn, and powerful enough to swing an entire game the moment you pick one up.
Here's every Mythic currently in the Reload loot pool, how to actually find them, and an honest read on how rare each one really is.
What Makes a Weapon Mythic in Reload?
In standard Battle Royale, Mythic weapons are tied to specific bosses or locations. In Reload, the system is looser — and more chaotic. Mythics can appear in regular chests, Supply Drops, Llamas, and certain high-tier loot zones, meaning any chest you open could theoretically contain one.
The catch: the probability is extremely low for most of them, and some have specific spawn conditions that most players never think to check.
Midas' Drum Gun
One of the most iconic weapons in Fortnite history, the Drum Gun returns in Reload with its Mythic variant intact. High fire rate, solid damage, and enough magazine capacity to shred through multiple opponents before reloading.
How to find it: Chest and Supply Drop loot pool, weighted toward rare spawns. Drop rate is approximately 1 in 7,000 from any chest or Supply Drop.
Is it worth hunting? Yes — the Drum Gun in Mythic tier is genuinely game-changing in close-to-mid range fights. If you see it drop, you take it.
Skye's Assault Rifle
A fan-favorite from Chapter 2 Season 2, Skye's AR is a Mythic-tier assault rifle with slightly elevated damage stats and better accuracy than the standard Mythic AR. Clean iron sights and low recoil make it one of the easiest Mythics to use effectively.
How to find it: Same pool as Midas' Drum Gun — approximately 1 in 7,000 from chests and Supply Drops.
Is it worth hunting? Absolutely. The accuracy advantage at range separates it from other ARs in the pool and it handles well under pressure.
The Heisted Weapons — The Ultra-Rare Set
This is where things get genuinely absurd. Reload contains five weapons from the Heist series — each individually rare, but collectible as a set. Finding all five from a single chest or Supply Drop sits at 1 in 10,000 odds.
The five weapons are:
1. Heisted Accelerant Shotgun — Close range, burst damage, high floor on stats even at Epic tier. The Mythic version hits harder than anything else in the shotgun category.
2. Heisted Breacher Shotgun — Slower fire rate than the Accelerant but punishing at point-blank. Good for aggressive plays into buildings.
3. Heisted Blink Mag SMG — The standout of the set. Reload speed is almost zero — this is the weapon you want if you're rotating through multiple fights in quick succession.
4. Heisted Run 'N' Gun SMG — More traditional SMG feel, better at range than the Blink Mag, pairs well with a long-range primary.
5. Heisted Explosive Assault Rifle — The conversation-starter. Each round deals splash damage. One of the most chaotic weapons in the entire game and a content creator's dream to document.
Finding the full set: Pure variance. If you're actively hunting, Supply Drops are your best odds concentration. The 1 in 10,000 chance applies to pulling all five from a single source — individual Heisted weapons appear more frequently, just not as a complete set.
How to Maximize Your Mythic Chances
Knowing the weapons is one thing. Actually pulling them consistently is a different skill set entirely. A few approaches that improve your odds:
Prioritize Supply Drops over floor chests. Supply Drops have a separate, more generous loot table for high-tier items. In a Reload match, tracking Supply Drop locations should be a priority from the first circle.
Hit Llamas immediately. Llamas are rare spawns but carry guaranteed top-tier loot. If you hear the Llama sound or see one on the map, route to it before anyone else.
Play rotations, not fights. The players who find the most Mythics aren't always the ones winning gunfights — they're the ones who know which chests to open, which areas have higher spawn weights, and when to disengage from a fight to hit a Supply Drop instead.
Extended sessions matter. The variance on Mythic drops in Reload is real. One session might yield three Mythics across ten games. Another might go twenty games with none. Volume is part of the strategy.
The Bottom Line
Reload's Mythic pool is smaller than standard Battle Royale but the drop system is wilder — any chest could hold one, the Heisted set adds a collection mechanic on top of individual rarity, and the compressed map means loot density works in your favor if you know where to look.
The weapons are worth hunting. The process of hunting them is what makes Reload interesting.
