A quick guide on locating Poison Ivy in Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 3, detailing her exact beach spawn, how to hire her for gold bars, and the rewards for defeating her in a duel.
Fortnite has officially kicked off its Hot Bat Summer update, bringing a DC flavor to Chapter 7 Season 3. Alongside new skins and points of interest, the patch introduces Poison Ivy as an in-game NPC. Unlike standard characters who appear clearly marked on your menu map, Ivy likes to play hard to get. Finding her requires knowing the exact drop coordinates, and beating other players to her location is half the battle since she vanishes from the match if someone else hires or defeats her first.
According to a detailed guide by Johnny Yu over at Polygon, you can find Poison Ivy on a small beach located north of The Battlewoods and east of Lifty Lodge. Head straight for the southernmost point of the large island sitting just above The Battlewoods to spot her. Dropping in directly is your best bet because matches move fast, and you do not want to arrive only to find out another squad already claimed her.
Once you track her down, you have two distinct paths depending on your match strategy. You can spend 350 gold bars to hire her as a Scout Specialist, which gives your squad valuable passive pings for nearby enemies and chests. Alternatively, you can challenge her to a duel. Taking her down in combat requires chipping away at her health pool while watching out for her self-heal ability, but winning rewards you with a mythic ranger pistol and a Batman sprite to power up your loadout for the rest of the match.
