The Wanted: Joss Outlaw Quests in *Fortnite* Chapter 6, Season 2 are not for the faint of heart. The Big Dill challenge is sending players into a frenzy, but it's just one of several demanding tasks on the horizon. Here’s your comprehensive guide on how to collect mineral samples using the Plasma Burst Laser in *Fortnite*.
How to Find the Plasma Burst Laser in Fortnite
The Plasma Burst Laser, introduced in the Lawless season, is an Epic item renowned for its effectiveness in breaching Vaults across the map. However, acquiring this powerful tool isn't a walk in the park. Your best bet for finding the Plasma Burst Laser is to hit up Points of Interest (POIs) that have Vaults, such as Crime City, which boasts numerous Go Bags and Chests. Alternatively, you can purchase it at the Black Market for 600 Gold. The Black Market south of Seaport City is an option, but the one near Magic Mosses is more convenient as it's closer to Joss' lab, where you'll need to analyze your mineral samples later.

How to Collect Mineral Samples Using the Plasma Burst Laser on Stone Structures in Fortnite
Once you've secured the Plasma Burst Laser, your next step is to find a suitable stone structure. Not all stones will suffice; you need one that can be destroyed. The Escapist learned the hard way that permanent stone structures won't cut it. You'll need to find a destructible stone piece, something you could break with your Pickaxe.
When you've located the right stone, aim your Plasma Burst Laser and start firing. The stone will eventually crumble, but don't expect the mineral samples to magically appear in your inventory. Instead, a small piece of rock will drop to the ground after the stone is destroyed. You'll need to interact with this rock to collect the mineral samples and progress in the Quest.
If you've followed these instructions, you won't have to venture far to return to Joss' lab. The game will guide you to the exact spot inside her lab where you need to go. Once there, hit the interact button to analyze the samples, earn more XP, and complete the Wanted: Joss Outlaw Quests. With that done, you can dive back into *Fortnite* and flaunt your newly unlocked items.
And that's the full scoop on how to collect mineral samples using the Plasma Burst Laser in *Fortnite* Chapter 6. If you're hungry for more, check out all the rumored collaborations for the Lawless season.
*Fortnite is available to play on various platforms, including the Meta Quest 2 and 3.*
