There are some formidable bosses you can take on around the island in Fortnite’s Star Wars-themed Galactic Battle season. One of these bosses is Captain Phasma, the imposing leader of the First Order stormtroopers.
If you’re looking to grab some of the best loot on the island, taking her down is essential. She’s a fairly tricky foe to track down, though, so here’s how to find and beat Captain Phasma in Fortnite Chapter Six, season three.

Captain Phasma location in Fortnite Star Wars Galactic Battle
You can find Captain Phasma inside the First Order Base. This location is heavily guarded by stormtroopers, so getting inside and tracking her down is a bit of a tough task. For the best odds of getting to her quickly and easily, enter through the large hangar door near the very north end of this location.
Captain Phasma always hangs out in the hangar area, so entering from this location is not only the easiest way to gain access to the base, but also the best way to find her. There are lots of stormtroopers around this area, but she’s the only one with a silver suit and a long cape.
You can technically get to her through any of the doors at the First Order Base, but you’ll meet a lot more enemy NPCs if you venture into this location from anywhere else. The hangar door near the north is wide open and easy to enter straight out of the battle bus, so it’s always your best bet for finding her or otherwise infiltrating this location.
How to get Captain Phasma’s Mythic F-11D Blaster and Medallion
You can get Captain Phasma’s Mythic F-11D Blaster and Medallion by defeating her in combat at the First Order Base. Both items are dropped as soon as you eliminate her in battle. There’s only one of each item in every round, so you either need to be the first player to eliminate her or defeat the player who was.
Captain Phasma is a fairly formidable enemy to go up against in combat, so make sure you have some solid loot before you take her on. The stormtroopers in the area also fight alongside her, so you’ll generally be fighting more than one enemy at once.
To ensure you don’t perish in battle, find the best weapons you can get before starting the fight. There are lots of weapons in the Chapter Six, season three loot pool, so you’ve got plenty of options for fighting her.
While you’re fighting Captain Phasma, watch out for any explosives she may throw your way. During my first encounter with her, she launched me off the nearby cliff using an explosive, and I perished from the fall damage. Her regular shots aren’t very strong, but her explosives are, so be cautious anytime you see her pull one out.
If you’re looking for more Star Wars fun, you may want to review all battle pass items and all new locations. There are also some free items up for grabs this season, so be sure to unlock a First Order Stormtrooper skin and earn the Asajj Ventress Loading Screen from watching Star Wars Tales of the Underworld.
