Happy challenge day! It’s Thursday, so that means there are new challenges in Fortnite: Battle Royale. You can complete all seven challenges and earn 50 Battle Stars and 8,000 XP.
Unfortunately, this week’s challenges are pretty standard. Epic Games did bring back the multi-stage challenges, but this time they involve elimination locations instead of chests.
Let’s take a look at this week’s challenges.
Free Challenges
| Place Traps (10) | 5 Battle Stars/500 XP |
| Search Chests in Wailing Woods (7) | 5 Battle Stars/500 XP |
| Shotgun Eliminations (4) | 10 Battle Stars/1,000 XP |
Placing traps is pretty easy. Just find 10 of them and place them anywhere for 10 easy Stars.
Searching chests in Wailing Woods can be annoying. There aren’t many potential chest spawns, about 10 of them, and they’re spread out. Most of them are in the middle of the area, in the hedge maze, but you can also find them in random pickup trucks and ditches scattered around the wooded area.
For shotgun eliminations, grab your shotgun and start eliminating. Need help choosing the right shotgun? Check out our guide.
Battle Pass Challenges
| Deal damage with a pickaxe to opponents (250) | 5 Battle Stars/500 XP |
| Use a Rift at different Rift spawn locations (10) | 5 Battle Stars/500 XP |
| Search between three oversized seats | 10 Battle Stars/1,000 XP |
|
Stage 1: Eliminate an opponent in Greasy Grove Stage 2: Eliminate an opponent in Lonely Lodge Stage 3: Eliminate an opponent in Fatal Fields | 1 Battle Star/100 XP each stage |
To deal damage with a pickaxe to opponents, you can do two things—run at your enemy swinging wildly like a madman, or hit them when they’re downed in Duos or Squads.
Here’s a map of Rifts located around the island. You’ll need to find and use 10 different Rifts, and that shouldn’t be a problem. Many of the circled locations have multiple Rifts within them or nearby.
To search between three oversized seats, go to the hill north of Flush Factory, in the center of three big trees.
Finally, this week’s multi-stage challenge takes you to multiple locations for eliminations. First, get a kill at Greasy Grove. Then, move to Lonely Lodge for some action, and finally, finish it off at Fatal Fields.
