How to get Midas Drum Gun in Fortnite
Where to find Midas' Drum Gun and Midas.
Finding Midas' Drum Gun in Fortnite can be a little tricky at first, especially as you'll need a substantial amount of Gold to pay for it. Finding this weapon, or indeed any Drum Gun, will help you complete one of the Midas event quests. It also seems that only one NPC sells this Mythical weapon and that's Midas.
As with other Fortnite NPC's that you can visit across the map, visiting Midas can grant you with useful items as well as the high-tier Drum Gun.
Without further ado, we're here to show you how to get Midas' Drum Gun in Fortnite, plus where to find Midas.

How to get Midas' Drum Gun in Fortnite
Once you find Midas, you can speak to him as you would with any other NPC across the island and pay 600 Gold Bars for Midas' Drum Gun. Midas will only stock one of these weapons per match, so if another player beats you to it then you'll need to save your Gold for the next one.
Also, if you're lucky, you may take down the player that has Midas' Drum Gun and you can steal it from their remains.
However, if this weapon doesn't seem within your reach, then remember you can cause damage with normal Drum Guns too for this task. We found that The Great Marigold Yacht chests housed many of them.

You can find Midas on the top deck of the Great Marigold Yacht in Fortnite. The Yacht itself can be found on the west side of the island, between The Underworld and Pleasant Piazza. We've marked its location on the Fortnite map below for you.
If you're struggling to find it, go directly west from Grim Gate and you should see the boat from the shore.
