Medallions are back in Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 1, having first made their appearance in Chapter 5 Season 1. This season introduces two powerful medallions: the Wanderer Medallion and the Night Rose Medallion. Here’s everything you need to know about what these medallions do and where you can find them.
What Are Medallions in Fortnite?
Medallions are special boss drops that grant players unique buffs, giving you a distinct advantage in battles. In Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 1, there are two types of medallions:
Wanderer Medallion: Dropped by Shogun X, this medallion grants infinite stamina and makes you invisible while sprinting.
Night Rose Medallion: Dropped by Night Rose, this medallion automatically reloads your weapons.
Medallions don't occupy any of your regular inventory slots, instead having their own separate slot, similar to how gold is stored.
How to Obtain Medallions in Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 1
To get a medallion, you’ll need to eliminate the boss NPC holding it. Once you get close to these bosses, a large health bar will appear at the top of your screen, showing you the boss’s health. Here’s how each boss works:
Shogun X: Spawns randomly across the map and can drop a random mythic weapon. To get the Wanderer Medallion, you need to survive until the fourth storm circle. At this point, Shogun’s Arena will appear, marked by a red rift icon on the map. Once you get close enough, it will change to a red oni mask icon. Defeat Shogun X in this arena to obtain the Wanderer Medallion.
Night Rose: This boss has a fixed location at the Demon’s Dojo POI. When you reach this spot, be cautious of Night Rose’s Shade—a specter that harasses you but isn’t the actual boss. To defeat Night Rose, you’ll need to engage in a multi-phase boss fight. First, step into the circle where she waits—until she attacks, you won’t be able to deal any damage. Once you start attacking, focus on defeating her while she moves around. Afterward, turn your attention to her floating head, the oni puppeteer. Shoot the glowing red eyes to progress through each phase. Keep repeating this process until you defeat her and earn the Night Rose Medallion and her Night Rose Veiled Precision SMG.
Finding Medallions on the Map
You can spot medallions or the bosses holding them by looking at the map. Night Rose always appears at Demon’s Dojo, but Shogun X is a bit more unpredictable. To find him, look for an oni mask icon on the map, which signifies his location. But note that this initial form of Shogun X only drops a random mythic weapon, not the medallion.
Additionally, if you see an orange or gold circle on the map, it indicates that another player has already obtained a medallion. You can eliminate them to steal their medallion.
Strategy for Defeating the Bosses
Both bosses are accompanied by NPC lackeys who can be a nuisance during the battle. However, these NPCs are relatively easy to defeat, as they tend to miss their shots, much like the Stormtroopers from Star Wars. Focus on the boss itself, and with a solid weapon, you should be able to defeat them and secure the medallion. Be aware that both bosses can regenerate their shields, so the battle might take longer than expected.
The Wanderer Medallion and Night Rose Medallion offer powerful buffs that can make a big difference in your Fortnite battles. Be sure to track down these bosses, whether you’re hunting Shogun X in his randomly spawning arenas or challenging Night Rose at Demon’s Dojo. Happy hunting, and may the medallions be in your favor!
