The SECRET to Unlocking Pirate Shop Token! (Free Item 100%). | Transcript:

If you want to be like this guy or this guy or even this guy, then listen up because I'm going to be sharing tips and tricks that no one's talking about to guarantee you find the pirate shop token worth over $10,000 before this mini season ends. I'm dividing this video up into seven different categories so you can get the item shop token with the first one being what is it? Let's just summarize it quickly in case you don't know. This item once you get it can be redeemed, allowing you to get anything and everything in the item shop that is bought with V-Bucks for free for 2 weeks. You have until December the 15th to use it in 2026 and then you can use it again in 2027 up until December the

15th. The big tip that I see people getting completely wrong is that when they go ahead and get this item, they use it right away. Now, if there's something in the shop that you like, don't get me wrong, feel free to use it. But technically, the best time to use it is actually December the 15th, so that twoe period rolls over into Christmas Day, which is the most expensive item shop time of the year. So, that's a top tip if you are lucky enough to get it. Secondly, how do you get this reward and any of the free rewards are available? You just open chests. But it's not just chess. Oh my god, two tokens. Are you kidding me?

Okay, I can't carry more than one. All right, I'm going to have to open this one and then I'll come back for this one. So, let's mark it on the map. But getting them isn't just from chest. You can actually get them from sprite chest. You can get them from Epic Chests as well, buried chests, sprite posters, which have a new way of getting sprites this season. And Epic Tofu, who works at Epic Games, recently talked about the fact that you can actually get them from ammo crate boxes and also food boxes, but everyone's just overlooking them. So, anything that can be opened and give you loot, you need to be opening. Do not overlook anything, people. They can come out of way more things than we realize.

Now look at this. The sprite I've got on has just revealed so much loot. Let's open this up. Lucky enough to get a key. Now, you don't actually have to open them. You can break them. So, if you're in a rush, don't be afraid to do it that way. You can still get rewards. There's even ways of getting inside of these vaults without having a key that I'll share with you guys as well. to actually see the Pirate Shop token being redeemed and used. Stick around to the end of this video as I'm going to show you footage. It's genuinely insane. You're going to want to see it. So, let's just dive a little bit deeper for a second into the actual free rewards as the rarest free rewards are actually

being massively overlooked. And chest, by the way, do respawn every 5 minutes or so. Another tip to feel to definitely come back to spots you've looted to reopen those chests. And apparently you can actually break the chest as well and get rewards. There's an extra bonus chance of getting the rewards. Everyone's talking about the pirate shop token because it's the most valuable one and obviously the coolest one, but technically probably not the one you want to get really. The one that I want to get personally is actually the golden ASAP Rocky skin because that is only available for the first week of this season as the free rewards are actually cycling every week of this season with the next week's free

reward being the little Yuzi Vert golden skin and then the third and fourth week will again have new free rewards. The good thing is the item shop token is staying for all of the weeks, but we don't know if it will be available beyond just this mini season. But the golden skins may only ever be available in the weeks that you're playing the game, which will make them potentially the rarest skins ever in Fortnite. And I think this is massively being overlooked. Alongside that, you can get golden pickaxes, back blings, cars, and a load of gizmos. But the gizmos aren't the most exciting. In fact, the best preparation you can do is before you even jump in a game. So, first of all,

you can see that I'm playing in squads, and I'm doing that on purpose because if anyone in my squad gets any of the free loot rewards, everyone in your squad will get it. You need to be playing in squads. I never play anything but solos, but right now, you can see I'm playing with a load of randomers, and we're all trying our best to get some of these free rewards. Make sure you're doing it if you're on the hunt. You have four times higher chance of getting any of these rewards because each time any of you open a chest, you could all get something. But not only that, you need to be preparing the right sprite. Now, the most popular sprite technique is to use the plunderer sprite. This is a

really, really rare sprite. It's a mythic version, and it lets you basically farm way quicker. It gives you the gold effect. It makes your pickaxe swing quicker, you move faster after you open chests. and the chest POI on the island and also the top right unnamed island have a load of underground hidden treasure and people are landing there partnering it with a plunderer sprite to get over 20 chests really quickly but those spots have started to become so popular that I would actually not recommend those which is why I've got a different sprite setup specifically based around the fortune variant the fortune variant will scan around you for chests and reveal them periodically,

meaning you will spot chests that you may have easily missed. Oh my god, look, fortune kelper. Literally got one right there. Never even had this one before. And I've also got the chest sprite on that can give you additional loot from opening up chests. And it's not confirmed, but it's rumored that it could give you a higher chance of getting those free rewards every time you open up a chest. So, for me, this is the best sprite to use, the fortune chest sprite. So, let's dive a little bit deeper into actual loot spots. I'm going to share a few loot spots on screen here. I'm just going to play some videos of them. There's some really, really cool secret Easter eggs like the frog secret where you got to line up

four frogs facing in the right direction and it will open up two epic chests for you. The secret waterfalls, multiple of them in fact, which contain chests behind them. And don't forget, as we've already said, you can actually go ahead. Oh, this one's already been looted. That's annoying. Oh my god, the plunderer sprite just sat there. How's no one picked that up yet? That's insane. Oh, look. My teammate's got the golden G wagon. So, he's already got one of the free rewards. So, I've actually gone ahead and put the plunderer sprite on just to show you how this technique works. My whole squad's landed here. Boom. I open up a chest. I've got the gold rush effect. And then you can go around really, really quickly opening up

the rest of a chest. And there's over 20 chests in this spot here, making it super effective. And my team actually know what they're doing. And it's not as contested as I thought it would be. There's a lot of chests to go around on the island, people. We can get that item shop token. I know we can. The next trick I want to tell you about is to get inside of the actual vaults without even having a key card. Now, these could get patched quite quickly. Pay attention and make sure you're giving them a go as soon as possible. The good thing is there's actually multiple ways of doing this. Starting with simply just having a shock wave on, which is what I've got as

my like quick item within zero build. So, I'm going to have it literally off the rip. All you want to do is shockwave yourself into the wall. And if you shockwave into the front corner of the doors, you can actually break using the shockwave effect the chest inside without actually being inside. As we already talked about, just breaking chest still counts as opening them. So, you don't need to be inside the actual vault to get the loot. That's the first way. The other way is to use cannonballs. Throwing the cannonballs into Oh. Oh, we got a gizmo. We got a sprite gizmo. Let's go. There we go. We got a reward. It's already paying off for playing as a team. You love to see it. Throwing these cannonballs that I

actually have in my hand right here into the corner of the vault doors again. Can open up and explode all the chests that are inside the vault without needing the key. Now, there is actually a vault in here. It may have been opened up already, but I'll go and take a look and see. If it's not, we can give it a go ourselves. And I think it's around here somewhere. Oh, he's got a key. Oh, he's in, boys. We're in anyway. We don't need to glitch it. Nice. Oh, these chests are probably the best chance. Oh, look. Don't forget to open that as well. People are seriously overlooking the ammo crates. You got to break all of these as well. Break them all. It could give us another chance of getting something. The other

technique is by taking uh Luffy's mythic ability and then using his arm slam ability to actually go ahead and slam into the ground. Again, it will go ahead and break the chest inside. Or if you don't have any of those items, all you got to do is try and fit your gun through the window that looks into the vault. And you can actually, it's a bit awkward, but you can actually shoot the floor that the chests are on. also breaking the chest without needing to go in there. There's so many little techniques around these. A lot of them don't seem to have been patched yet, so just give them a go and they may still work. We're now on to what I think is the best part of the video if you waste,

which is secret tips that no one's talking about that may be small, but actually could be the thing that get you the item shop token because other people are not doing it or don't know about it. So, treasure hours, these are going to be events that happen on weekends. They were going to happen on Sundays, but have now been switched to Saturdays, just FYI, where during these hours, the chance of you getting those free rewards will be increased. This is the time you want to be playing. Forget sprite power hours. This is quite literally free reward power hours. I'll put the exact timings on screen here for you guys so you can make sure you do not miss it. But this is probably the biggest thing

you cannot overlook during the weekends of this season. I don't normally jump on and play during the weekend, but I'm going to have to for these power hours. We talked about it a little bit, but the actual chests can give you way more chances of getting free rewards if you know what you're doing. It's easy to forget that chest Oh, he had a plunderer sprite on as well. I was trying the same thing. The chests do respawn, so you may not want to be breaking the chest right away if it's more towards the middle of the map and you know you're going to be coming back to it. Here, for example, I'm coming in with the storm. So, what

I'm going to do with this chest is open it up, then break it again to basically give me two chances of getting the free loot. But if I was in the middle of the map and the storm wasn't coming in, I'd probably open it, leave it, let it respawn, and then when I left the area, break it to technically get three rolls on one chest at getting any of those free reward items. The other technique is if you're going around and seeing that a lot of the chests are broken, not there, or the game's just slowing down. It sounds kind of bad, but don't be afraid just to back out. Get used to your loot run. open up chess as quickly as possible and then restart your game and try again. I don't want to encourage

people backing out of games or leaving their teammates behind if you're really interested in a win, but if you just want the free rewards, it is statistically the best way of doing it. And I mentioned this at the beginning of the video when we talked about how you can actually go ahead and get over here. Let's see if we can open it. How you can actually get these rewards, but wanted posters, which is the posters that you can quite easily miss to be fair. Oh, let's see if I can do this. So, let's see if I can open up the chest using uh see if that worked. I think it did.

Yeah. Look. See, it opened up some of the chests without needing to go inside. Come on. All right, guys. I hear that if everyone watching right now clicks the like or subscribe button, I will get a free reward. I can give you 5 seconds. Like or subscribe. I don't care which one it is. Let's both give ourselves some good luck here. Like, subscribe. Seriously, who didn't do it, guys? Come on. We got to work together if we want these rewards. I've actually mastered the plunderer sprite here. So, what you want to be doing as soon as you've mastered it is making sure that you extract it because it then costs way less sprite to actually go ahead and revive it if you're losing it or you're

backing out of games, loads and loads. And honestly, I mean, you're going to master it well quickly. Like, I've done it in like a single game here to be honest with you. Let's make sure we do that right now. Let's say you followed all of these tips. You've gotten lucky. Fortnite have granted you the item shop token. Now, as I said, you can use the first token cuz you technically get two up until December the 15th. Then the second one can be used again until December the 15th, 2027. Now, I know as soon as you get the token, you want to use it right away. It's very exciting. But please, I recommend holding off unless there's something in the shop you really, really want because the best

time and the most expensive time that the item shop can ever be for that 2e period is Christmas. If you trust yourself to not forget, use it literally on the 14th or 15th of December so that those 2e period cover day. The item shop is always the most expensive on Christmas Day. Whatever you do, do not use it later than December the 15th though or you have quite literally wasted a token. Don't do that, please. But if you want the most out of your token, that is the time to use it. Then again, the same time next year. I mean, Winterfest, we just know how amazing Winterfest is anyway. But it could quite literally double the value of the item shop and V-Bucks you're getting for free if you time it properly

around the Christmas period. The best thing you can honestly do is just play a lot of Fortnite. It's a lot of luck. No one knows the actual chances for any of the rewards. By the way, the number one in 700,000 gets thrown a lot for the item shop, but no one actually knows that. Honestly, I see less people getting the free skin than I do the item shop reward. Just play open chess and good luck. So, big thanks to Power Winter. This is what it looks like when you get the unlock. It shows you can use it for 14 days with two redemption tokens for 2026 and 2027. When you're in the item shop in the bottom right corner, you can activate it and you'll see plundering available for the 2 weeks

since you activated it and it'll have a little tick and then watch what happens in the item shop. If he goes to anything, it now says free. Like it actually says free. This is the point where if you do get it, make sure code Alia is entered before you start rinsing the item shop. Look, you can just purchase it. Boom. Just like that. Bam. Everything's yours. Everything is yours, people. I wish us all incredible luck on this journey in trying to get this reward. For more even detailed secret loot spots, I put 12 of the best that no one's talking about here in this video. So, click on screen. Go watch that for even more the best spots you need to be going to. If you get it,

please, please, please let me know any of the rewards in the comments section.
