Fortnite challenge guide: Collect cookbooks from Pleasant Park and Craggy Cliffs

Season 5, week 14 of Fortnite is underway, meaning there are a new set of challenges for you to check out. For the most part, week 14 features a relatively straightforward list of challenges — many of which you can complete with little to no assistance. However, there are a couple that might cause some issues if you don’t know where to go. The first one you’ll likely have trouble with requires you to collect four cookbooks from Pleasant Park and Craggy Cliffs.

As is typical, the game doesn’t specify all the cookbook locations, which is where we come in. Oddly enough, the challenge is worded incorrectly. You don’t have to find cookbooks at both locations. Instead, as long as you find four across one or both areas, you’ll get credit for completing the challenge. In this guide, we’ll show you where to find cookbooks to complete this season 5, week 14 Fortnite challenge.

Where to find cookbooks from Pleasant Park and Craggy Cliffs

In total, there are 10 cookbooks scattered across both locations. To complete this challenge, you only need to find four of them — and any combination will do. In fact, you don’t need to visit both locations at all. Simply land at either Pleasant Park or Craggy Cliffs and grab four cookbooks to complete the challenge.

The other thing to know is that there is no prerequisite for starting this challenge. During season 5, many challenges have prerequisites that must be finished first before moving on, but this is the first stage, so you can jump into it right away. Aside from that, you should know that this challenge does not need to be completed in one match (though it can be done in one match relatively easily). Your progress carries over, so don’t worry if you die before getting all four cookbooks.

Below, we’ll list the locations of all 10 cookbooks, so feel free to grab them in any order you like.

Pleasant Park

Most of the cookbooks at Pleasant Park are found in the kitchens of houses. We recommend landing on the west side of this area. Then, make your way north, hitting all the houses along the side. The map below (courtesy of Fortnite.gg) has more details.

Craggy Cliffs

The cookbooks at Craggy Cliffs are a bit more spread out, but can still be collected quickly. Reference the map below (thanks, Fortnite.gg) for more specifics.

Once you’ve collected your fourth cookbook, you’ll earn credit for completing the challenge, along with 40,000 XP for your troubles. Not too bad for a few minutes of work!

How to launch fireworks at Coachella Island in Fortnite
Launching fireworks at Coachella Island in Fortnite.

The week 2 Fortnite Coachella quests are live now, and while a lot of them are straightforward, one seems to have caused some confusion for many players. The quest is for launching fireworks at Coachella Island, and as expected, the game doesn't necessarily specify how to complete the objective. In this guide, we'll show you how to launch fireworks at Coachella in Fortnite.
Visit Coachella Island

The first step is to actually make your way to Coachella Island. You cannot complete this quest during a normal match and instead must head into a Creator Made Island. To do so, you'll need to head to Island Code from the game mode menu and utilize the code 5449-4207-1280. Then, launch into a match on Coachella Island.

How to damage opponents with the Lock On Pistol in Fortnite
The Lock On Pistol in Fortnite.

As part of a weekly challenge in Fortnite, players are tasked with dealing 200 damage with the Lock On Pistol. This challenge has caused some confusion, as acquiring the weapon isn't as consistent as players might have hoped. In this guide, we'll show you how to get your hands on the Lock On Pistol and how to deal 200 damage with it in Fortnite.
How to find the Lock On Pistol

First, you need to get your hands on the Lock On Pistol. Currently, the only known ways of finding one are by opening chests or collecting them from Supply Drops. The weapon isn't available from NPCs or any method just yet. This means you'll want to head to a high-traffic area like Mega City to find a bunch of chests. Keep in mind that Mega City will be busy, but there are plenty of chests available. If you want to play it safe, you can visit a different point of interest (POI). Keep opening chests until you get your hands on the Lock On Pistol.

How to survive storm phases carrying an Epic weapon in Fortnite
Character jumping while holding Epic weapon in Fortnite.

A new Fortnite challenge for surviving storm phases while carrying an Epic weapon has caused some confusion, as the quest's wording isn't exactly clear. Thankfully, the challenge is much easier than it seems, and once you know what to do, you can get through it relatively quickly. Here's how to survive storm phases while carrying an Epic weapon in Fortnite.
What is an Epic weapon?
Fortnite uses a rarity system with its weapons, which are denoted by colors. Purple weapons are Epic, but keep in mind you can utilize any weapon of higher rarity to complete this quest. As long as the weapon is at least Epic, you'll earn credit for surviving storm phases.
How to get an Epic weapon

There are several ways to get Epic weapons. One way is to simply find one from chests or as floor loot, but this isn't as reliable. You can also purchase Epic weapons from NPCs around the map. Nearly all main hubs have an NPC who sells weapons, so be sure to talk with them if you have the funds. Using an Upgrade Station is another solid option for collecting an Epic weapon, though it's expensive. Another option is to defeat the Highcard Boss found at Brutal Bastion, Shattered Slabs, and Mega City. Upon defeat, the Highcard Boss drops a Mythic Havoc Suppressed Rifle.
