What is Vending Machine in Fortnite?
The vending machine works just like it does in the real world. Although, the difference is that it will not give you snacks and candies in exchange for coins. You will be getting weapons in exchange for resource materials. It is a great way to get geared up if your luck is not working for you and you need a weapon urgently. You can find vending machines all over the map at different spots. If you want to get one, you should continue reading this guide.
How do They Work?
As mentioned above, the vending machines in Fortnite allow you to trade building materials for an item or a weapon. Each vending machine has a different rarity from common to legendary. So if you go to a common vending machine. You will give 100 quantity of a material like wood, brick or metal and in return, it will give you a common item.

The items that are generated by a vending machine are random within the rarity and it is also possible that you get repeats. For instance, you may get an epic rocket launcher by giving 400 bricks and when you use the same vending machine again with wood, you may again get the same rocket launcher. So the gist of the matter is that you will not have control over which item you can get. The number of resources that you need for each rarity are listed below:
- You will get common items if you give 100 materials.
- You will get the uncommon items if you give 200 materials.

Vending Machine Locations:
It is important to know that Vending Machines do not necessarily spawn at the same location every time. But, they tend to appear at predictable locations just like the chests.

So when you are visiting a vending machine location in the map, keep in mind that you may not find it at the place you are visiting and it may appear at someplace else. But landing at the known locations will have a better chance of having vending machines than just randomly wandering around. Also, keep an eye out for these machines in cities like Retail Row, Tilted Towers and Pleasant Park as these are the areas where vending machines are found often. Anyways, you will find all of the possible locations of the vending machines in the map below:
So these are some of the things that you should know if you want to use the vending machines. Also, make sure to see the map for locations of the vending machines.
