How to complete Fortnite Quests in Chapter 6 Season 1

The Fortnite quests are continuing to slowly build up, and in addition to some new Weekly quests we now have a fresh set of Expertise quests based around sniper rifles. This addition is a little confusing as traditional sniper rifles are not currently available in the battle royale, however if you can get your hands on a hunting rifle, rail gun, or explosive repeater rifle then they all count here, and Goldie at the Burd POI can provide a hunting rifle in exchange for some gold.

We're no longer being invaded by Godzilla, but you can still earn the Kaiju-related cosmetic rewards until the start of Fortnite Season 2 in late February by earning XP for cumulative account level increases. While there are plenty of assignments connected to the main battle royale, there are certain quests that are exclusive to Fortnite OG, so expand your focus to avoid missing chances of collecting additional XP and rising through the Battle Pass ranks.

As always, there's plenty more going on outside of the battle royale as well, so make sure you check out the separate experiences of Lego Fortnite, Rocket Racing, and Fortnite Festival to see what else is available. Don't overlook these assignments, as they provide a significant amount of additional XP during Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 1 to speed up your progress through the Battle Pass. There are Story quests again now we're back to a full length season, plus you have the Godzilla and Expertise quests, regular Daily quests, and classic Weekly quests to provide plenty of different options.

The Week 9 quests involve dealing 300 damage to Demon Warriors or Shogun X, so look for icons on your map showing them spawn or head to Shogun's Arena when it appears later in a match. You're likely to visit Landmarks in 4 different matches without trying if you move around the island enough, and you can destroy 25 objects at Twinkle Terrace more easily if you find an explosive weapon to blow things up. Spend 600 bars by visiting Characters and vending machines to make purchases, and if you're struggling to reach 10 players remaining then try sneaking around inside the shrinking safe circle while hiding in buildings and bushes until enough players take each other out.

There are certain Fortnite quests that will get ticked off through natural gameplay and don't require attention, but we're here to help with the ones that need specific knowledge or actions to clear. Completing quests is a lot easier these days now we no longer rely on Fortnite characters to distribute them, so if you want to know what you need to do for that sweet XP boost, then check out the quests section of the main menu – or the pause menu – and you'll find them all clearly laid out, with the option to track your progress on a specific challenge. Keep completing quests and you'll earn massive amounts of XP across the entire Fortnite season so you can unlock fresh rewards – and who doesn't want that? Here's everything we know about the latest Fortnite quests.
