Where to find the Wings of Icarus in Fortnite
Despite its strength, this item can be found in chests and as floor loot. The Wings of Icarus can appear when looting any part of the map, but you’ll find more success searching the new Chapter 5 Season 2 points of interest which are the Underworld, Grim Gate, Mount Olympus, and Brawler’s Battleground.
How to use the Wings of Icarus
Once you have the Wings of Icarus equipped, you can launch yourself into the sky. When you’re up high, you’ll be able to boost, dodge incoming bullets, and dive bomb. To dive bomb, all you have to do is aim and fire at a location like you would with any other weapon. Plunging to the ground has the potential to catch your enemy off-guard and leave them vulnerable to your attack.
Surprisingly, it’s possible to fly for quite a long time before the wings enter a cooldown period. That’s if you don’t get hit too many times which can lead to an unfortunate crash landing.
Now you know how to get the Wings of Icarus, you’re ready to reach new heights in your next Fortnite match.
