Season 1, week 2 quest guide

Damage Opponents from 50 or more Meters with the MK-Seven Assault Rifle (200)

Aiming down sights in Fortnite.

Be on the lookout for the MK-Seven Assault Rifle which can be found in chests around the world. When you finally find it, you can actually get away with damaging llamas or NPCs to complete this challenge. Simply mark the llama or NPC, which will show you how far away you are from it. As long as you’re at least 50 meters away, you’ll be golden. Then, make sure you deal 200 damage by shooting several shots. You can complete this by shooting a real player, but it’s much more difficult.

Catch Fish at Sleepy Sound or Loot Lake (3)

The hardest part about this challenge is simply knowing where each of these lakes is. Use the map above (thanks, Fortnite.gg) to see where both lakes are. Head to either of them and visit a nearby dock where you’ll find either a fishing rod or a harpoon to catch fish. You need to catch three to complete this quest.

Using Spider-Man’s Web Shooters, Travel 50 Meters in One Swing (1)

Map of web shooters in Fortnite.

Above is a map of all web shooter locations. You’ll find the web shooters attached to surfaces with — you guessed it — webs. Interact with them, collect the shooters, and you’ll be ready to start swinging, even if you aren’t wearing the Spider-Man suit. From here, all you need to do is swing a distance of 50 meters. Despite the quest saying “in one” swing, it actually just means you need to travel 50 meters before touching the ground (or any surface) again.

Purchase Items from Characters (3)

You’ll need gold bars to buy items from NPCs around the island. Use the map above (courtesy of Fortnite.gg) to see all their locations. We typically recommend avoiding the high traffic areas, so stick to the outskirts if you want to avoid conflict. If you’re low on bars, try eliminating players and they’ll likely drop some for you.

Use a Med-Mist While Sliding (1)

Med-Mist from Fortnite.

Med-Mists are green containers of spray that heal you. They don’t spawn in fixed locations 100% of the time, but you might have some luck finding them around gas stations as floor loot. Worst case scenario, play normally until you come across a Med-Mist and you’ll be ready to go. After you’ve found a Med-Mist, take fall damage and then you can perform the final step. From here, run and perform the slide maneuver and while sliding, use the Med-Mist.

Survive Storm Circles While Carrying a Weapon of Epic Rarity or Higher (4)

An Epic assault rifle in Fortnite.

This is yet another one you’ll likely get through by playing naturally. You’ll want to find Epic Rarity weapons, which are purple, but Legendary and Mythic — orange and gold, respectively — will work as well. The nice thing is that you don’t have to survive four storm circles in one match, so as long as you get through one, you’ll make some progress. When you start, make sure you loot often and you’ll eventually come across an Epic weapon. You can also upgrade weapons at the Weapon-o-Matic machines around the world. You can play it safe and simply hide on the outskirts of the map as the storm closes in.

Stash Items in a Tent (2)

Standing by tent in Fortnite.

Tents can be found around the world as floor loot or set up in random locations. From our experience, they’re typically located in open areas around the map, so try to stay away from the busier hubs while searching. Once you come across one, simply place two of your items inside and you’ll complete the challenge.

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.
