In Fortnite Chapter 6, Season 2: Lawless, controlling the cash flow is key. Mob boss Fletcher Kane has established safehouses across the map, and seizing one unlocks special rewards. This guide explains Gold Rush and how to activate it.

What Is Gold Rush in Fortnite Chapter 6, Season 2?

Gold Bars remain a crucial element in Fortnite, allowing players to acquire various items. This season introduces a twist: collecting gold activates Gold Rush, significantly boosting movement speed, pickaxe swing speed, and pickaxe damage against structures.

Gold Rush provides a substantial competitive advantage, though temporary. Fortunately, there are multiple ways to activate this powerful buff.

How To Activate Gold Rush in Fortnite Chapter 6, Season 2

Unlike other abilities, Gold Rush offers two activation methods:

• Gold-Infused Water: Taking a dip in gold-infused water, found at various locations across the map, instantly activates Gold Rush.

• Gold Veins: Mining Gold Veins, the source of Gold Bars, also grants the Gold Rush ability. Shiny Shafts, Fletcher Kane's primary gold source, is an excellent location to find these veins. However, be warned – Kane and his associates are heavily guarded.
