Season 1, week 13 quest guide

Using Spider-Man’s Web-Shooters, Swing Under an Arch at Desert Arch, Big Bridge, or Covered Bridge (1)

There are a few ways to complete this challenge, but we advise visiting Behemoth Bridge between Covert Cavern and Shifty Shafts. The map above shows its specific location (thanks, Fortnite.gg). On the underside of the bridge is a set of Spider-Man web-shooters, so grab them, then jump off and swing beneath the same bridge. If done correctly, the game will immediately notify you.

Use a Chug Splash at a Gas Station (1)

As you play, be on the lookout for chug splashes, which are items used to restore shields. When you find one, be aware of the nearest gas station, and try to plan a route to get there safely. As you can see on the map above, there are plenty of gas stations around the map, but the center area has lots of options, giving you the freedom to rotate there as the gas comes in. Simply get close to the gas station (right next to the pumps or building) and use the chug splash to complete this one.

Throw a Med Kit, Bandages, or any Shield Potion While Sliding (3)

Here’s a weird one. For this challenge, you need to throw a medkit, bandage, or shield potion while sliding, which is not something you’d normally do in a typical match. To complete the challenge, you need to throw three items, but any combination of the aforementioned healing materials will do. By this point, you should be familiar with sliding and throwing items, but in case you aren’t, we’ll explain. After you’ve collected enough healing items, get to a steep slope and click in the right stick while running. You’ll then enter a slide, so navigate to the healing item you’d like to throw, hold the left trigger to aim it, and throw with the right trigger. As long as you throw it while sliding, you’ll earn credit. Repeat this two more times to complete the challenge.

Open Produce Boxes at Condo Canyon or Sleepy Sound (5)

A produce box in Fortnite.

While Sleepy Sound might be a safer place to land since it’s usually not busy, we tend to gravitate towards Condo Canyon. Either way, pick one of these areas and loot all the buildings you can find. Inside will be little boxes of fruits and vegetables. To finish this challenge, you need to open five of them, but don’t worry if you can’t find enough within the same match since your progress carries over. There are plenty of buildings at each location so you shouldn’t have much trouble finding produce boxes. Your main issue will be coming across other players who could eliminate you before you complete the challenge, so play it safe if you don’t want to worry about opponents.

Gather Metal at Wreck Ravine, Windbreakers, or Rustaway Shores (100)

The safest and easiest method to completing this challenge is to visit Wreck Ravine, which is located to the west of Logjam Lumberyard on the far shore of the island in between two hills (hence the name). There are few large metal containers you can farm for metal and you should definitely be able to gather 100 metal in one go. You can, of course, land at the other locations but Wreck Ravine is usually safest since it’s so far out of the way.

Damage Opponents with the Striker Pump Shotgun (200)

Battling with a shotgun in Fortnite.

While pump shotguns aren’t necessarily the meta during this season, you’ll need to use one to complete this challenge. The tricky part is getting your hands on the Striker pump shotgun since finding it comes down to luck, so just make sure you loot as much as possible. During week 12, there was a challenge for collecting treasure using Nathan Drake’s map and it seems like you can get a Striker from the chest, so if you’re having trouble finding the weapon, try using this method. Once you find it, you can prioritize damaging opponents. If you’re struggling, try playing a team-based mode, down the opponent, and finish them with the shotgun to make your life easier.

Collect Bars (300)

Collecting gold bars is something you’d probably do while playing naturally, but if you want to prioritize completing this challenge, we advise completing a bounty. You can also find gold bars in safes, which are scattered around the map. There are a ton of them in Tilted Towers, but this area is typically pretty busy, so your mileage may vary. If you use a combination of cracking safes, defeating enemies, and completing bounties, you’ll complete this one in no time. You might even get lucky and eliminate a player who had a lot of gold bars on them, so try to take out as many opponents as possible.

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.

How to give specialist a command in Fortnite
Character interacting with NPC in Fortnite.

As part of Fortnite's Spring Breakout Daily Quests, players are tasked with giving a hired specialist character a command. Of course, the game doesn't specify how to do this exactly, leading to some confusion amongst the community. Thankfully, we've got everything you need to know about completing this new quest with ease in Fortnite.
How to hire a specialist

Specialist Characters are specific NPCs all around the map. If you pull up the quest itself, you'll actually see a map of all the Specialist Characters. Keep in mind that not all NPCs fall into this category, so be sure to look at the map. We like the one to the very north of Breakwater Bay as it's usually out of the way. Once you find them, you'll need to pay 200 Gold Bars to hire them. If you don't have the funds, be sure to play more and complete bounties as needed.
How to give a character a command
After you've hired the Specialist Character, they'll be on your side for the duration of the match. If you look at the top left side of the screen, you'll see an icon that represents the Follower Communications wheel. Press and hold left on the D-pad on console or the middle mouse button on PC to get this menu to appear. Once it does, you can pick from a list of commands such as wait or follow. To complete the quest, you simply need to issue one command and after the NPC does what you ask, you'll earn credit for completing it.
