How to Get a Mythic Rapid Fire SMG Easily

The only way to get a mythic rarity weapon in Fortnite right now is to nurture a Reality Sapling until it produces a Mythic Fruit. Legendary weapons cannot be upgraded any further via Upgrade Benches so this is the only option. A Mythic weapon can only be gained by weeding the Reality Sapling and by picking its fruit as it grows until it reaches the Mythic stage and produces only one shining fruit.

To make sure you gain a Mythic rarity Rapid Fire SMG you must plant your Reality Seed in the Desert Biome where places such as Chonkers Speedway or Rocky Reels is found. As long as you plant in this area, your Reality Sapling will eventually produce a Rapid Fire SMG.

Getting to the Mythic stage takes some time. You must nurture your Reality Sapling by weeding around the bottom, and picking its fruits. Weeding is required at least once every real-world 24 hours. Each weeding upgrades the sapling, and the fruits it grows. It also produces Slurp Mushrooms to consume for extra health or shield.

Picking the Mythic Fruit grown in the Desert biome will give you one Mythic Rapid Fire SMG, some ammo, and healing items such as Med Spray and Shields, or Chug Splash. Once you have picked your Mythic fruit, the Reality Sapling will be destroyed and have to be replanted. To keep growing Mythic Rapid Fire SMGs, keep planting the Reality Seed in the Desert Biome.
