The island of Fortnite Chapter 3 is teeming with hostiles. Aside from the Imagined Order, Loopers hell-bent on killing each other also prowl the landscape. The only sure way to survive is by becoming good at shooting opponents. While skills matter, having the best gear is important as well.

Unfortunately, at times, finding the best gear is not possible. Even after opening a dozen chests, sometimes 'common' is the only rarity of weapons a player will find. Thankfully, with a few gold bars, players will be able to improve their weapons by using an Upgrade Bench. Here are their locations.

Is it worth using an Upgrade Bench in Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 2?

The answer will depend on the situation. For instance, one of week three's challenges for the current season tasks players with upgrading any weapon. In exchange for a few gold bars (200 is the minimum), players can earn 20,000 XP. Given this exchange ratio, using the Upgrade Bench makes sense.

However, using an Upgrade Bench is a waste of gold bars under normal circumstances. Often, players find weapons with low rarity and use gold bars to upgrade them. A few seconds later, they stumble onto the same weapon with the exact rarity just lying on the ground.

This is not only infuriating but makes players dislike the whole upgrade mechanics altogether in Fortnite. Nevertheless, the Upgrade Bench does come in handy in certain situations as well. It can be used to max out the weapon's rarity or upgrade a weapon that the player can use proficiently.

At the end of the day, individual choice takes precedence here.
