Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 3 is already shaping up to be a content-heavy season, filled with tons to explore and dive into. From exploring the Supernova Academy and other locations to wielding hero items like the Bass Boost, there’s no shortage of epic moments and unique gameplay to enjoy.
The first major update of Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 3 also kicks off the summer fun in full gear. While some fans may be diving into LEGO Fortnite Expeditions or trying their luck in Blitz Royale, Battle Royale is also getting content in the form of even more hero items—one of which allows players to become a Storm Beast. Here’s how to get Storm Beast's Pom Poms in Fortnite.

How To Get Storm Beast's Pom Poms In Fortnite
Storm Beast's Pom Poms are a Hero Item of Epic rarity. To obtain them, players will need to rely on RNG. While Storm Beast's Pom Poms can be found as floor loot, this method is incredibly rare. However, players will have a much higher chance of finding the item in the following loot caches:
- Academy Stands: Found in all POIs and guaranteed within Academy Tech Labs.
- Chests and Rare Chests: Found across all POIs, but offer a lower chance for Hero Items.
- Hero Loot Caches: Found in all major POIs and Academy Tech Labs. Only Hero Caches of B Rank or higher offer Hero Items.
The Storm Beast Pom Poms can also be purchased from Haylee Skye for 400 Gold. Haylee Skye can be found on the north side of Pumped Power, but she only has one of Storm Beast's Pom Poms in stock per match.
How To Use Storm Beast's Pom Poms In Fortnite
Storm Beast's Pom Poms are a truly unique item, allowing players to transform into a Storm Beast by pressing the shoot button while holding them. In this form, players are given a new health bar that depletes when taking damage. They can remain in Storm Beast mode until that health bar runs out, or they manually exit the transformation by holding the interact key.
While in Beast Mode, players will be unable to use their weapons. However, they gain access to three main abilities, each of which can be used to eliminate enemies as Storm Beast and traverse the map:
- Attack (Shoot Button): Unleash a flurry of melee strikes, with each swipe dealing increasing amounts of damage.
- Storm Slam (Aim Button): Leap into the air and smash into the ground with a powerful melee attack. This move can be charged by holding the button, with up to three charge levels that increase its damage and precision.
- Leap (Jump Button): Perform an enhanced jump. This can be chained with Storm Slam to gain extra altitude and mobility.
Once players exhaust their Storm Beast's health bar, which also acts as the item's durability, it will be discarded, requiring players to find another to transform again.
