The popular Fortnitemares Event is back again for 2022, altering the Fortnite island to coincide with the spooky season. To celebrate Halloween, Fortnite has received an overhaul of fresh content including map changes, the introduction of zombie chickens, the revival of the Pumpkin Launcher and Candy consumables, and two new Mythic items.
The Howler Claws are the most prominent Mythical item added with this update, as it was featured heavily in the Fortnitemares trailer. This new item can be obtained by any player who performs the Ritual Emote at the various Ritual Altars around the map. However, the Howler Claws are not the only new item added with the V22.20 update, as a Mythical variant of the Suppressed Submachine Gun has also made an appearance. Here is how to obtain this new item.
How To Get The Inkquisitor’s Mythic Suppressed SMG
To obtain this new SMG, players will have to first summon the Inkquisitor, who is a brand-new Boss located at Grim Gables. The location to summon the Inkquisitor is located below the haunted house at Grim Gables, the entrance of which can be found in the room nearest to this location's Bounty Board, which itself is partially covered by a carpet.
Upon entering the basement, players will be greeted by a strange octopus-shaped mural on the ground. Simply stepping on this area will trigger the various pots surrounding the mural to be set ablaze, followed by the spawning of the Inkquisitor. All that is left now is to defeat the Inkquisitor, but this is no easy task.
This newly summoned hostile NPC will carry a Pumpkin Launcher and Firefly Jars, so it will be best to avoid getting too close. Keep your distance, as doing so will increase the time it takes for Inkquisitor rockets to reach you, making them much easier to dodge. The reload for the Pumpkin Launcher is also quite long, so take the opportunity to focus fire onto the upper torso and head of the Inkquisitor to maximize your damage output during these moments.
Once defeated, the Inkquisitor will drop their prized Mythic Suppressed SMG, among other items such as Chug Splashes and the Pumpkin Launcher they used during combat.
