Season 1, week 7 quest guide

Eliminate IO Forces (3)

Above is a map of all three of the IO bases around the island. For this quest, we recommend arriving at each base with a decent weapon, healing items, and shields so you’re prepared for the fight. The IO Forces aren’t too difficult but they can easily take you out if you start off on the wrong foot. SMGs work wonders here, but so do snipers and explosives. Once you’ve defeated three guards, you’ll earn credit for completing this challenge.

Throw a Klomberry While Standing Within 10 Meters of a Klombo (1)

There are two parts to this quest. First, you need to locate a Klomberry, which are found around the island as indicated on the map above. When you find some, make sure you grab multiple just in case you mess up the throw during the second part of the quest. From there, you need to visit a Klombo. These are dinosaurs that roam the map, and they’re usually found close to the Klomberry spawns. Get within 10 meters of the creature and throw the berry directly in front of it. If done correctly, the Klombo will eat the berry and you’ll earn credit for this challenge.

Damage Opponents with Grenades or a Grenade Launcher (75)

This one is slightly luck-based, so keep your eyes peeled for grenades as you play normally. Once you find some, save them until you come across an enemy, and then fire away. If you’re having trouble, you can down an enemy in a squad-based mode and then finish them off with a grenade with ease. It’s also helpful to throw a grenade at an enemy’s fort, especially toward the end of a match, as this will likely deal damage to them. You can also complete this challenge by damaging NPCs such as IO Forces.

Interact with a Computer Terminal at a Mole Team Drill Site (1)

There are three Mole Team Drill Sites around the island as noted by the map above (courtesy of Fortnite.gg). Simply visit any one of them and interact with the computer. The prompt will say “begin scan.” Doing so will scan the area for enemies and highlight them on your screen. After you do, the challenge will be completed.

Destroy Objects While Driving a Quadcrasher (30)

The map is littered with Quadcrashers, but if you’re struggling to find them, take a look at the map above. Once you find one, hop on and drive over 30 objects to complete this challenge. If you don’t manage to destroy 30 objects in one sitting, you can grab another Quadcrasher later on — or even in a separate match — to pick up where you left off.

Collect Different Types of Weapons at Shifty Shafts or The Sanctuary (3)

For this one, simply land at either Shifty Shafts or The Sanctuary and go on a looting spree. All you need to do is pick up three different weapon types, such as a shotgun, handgun, and assault rifle. If you can’t find three different weapon types in one location, you can try the other one later on or in a separate match.

Harvest Stone from The Temple, The Ruins, or Tumbledown Temple (200)

For the final quest, all you need to do is harvest 200 stone from The Temple, The Ruins, or Tumbledown Temple. Any combination of these locations will work. The most difficult part of this challenge is knowing where to go, but we’ve got you covered with a handy map showcasing the three locations (thanks, Fortnite.gg). If for whatever reason you don’t manage to get all 200 in one match, your progress carries over to the next game. We advise going for whichever area is most out of the way so you have less of a chance of encountering enemy players.

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.
