How to use henchmen walkie talkies to eavesdrop on Kane in Fortnite https://www.destructoid.com/how-to-use-henchmen-walkie-talkies-to-eavesdrop-on-kane-in-fortnite/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=how-to-use-henchmen-walkie-talkies-to-eavesdrop-on-kane-in-fortnite https://www.destructoid.com/how-to-use-henchmen-walkie-talkies-to-eavesdrop-on-kane-in-fortnite/#respond Wed, 26 Mar 2025 02:22:29 +0000 https://www.destructoid.com/?p=1039249 Fortnite henchmen walkie talkie

It's always a joy to hear Fortnite characters have custom voice lines within and outside quests. This time, Fletcher Kane and his henchmen have some time in the spotlight as they exchange orders and intel through walkie-talkies.

Since we're fighting against Fletcher Kane and his henchmen, our goal is to eavesdrop on these walkie-talkies to learn more about their operations. Let's dive into the list of every walkie-talkie location in Fortnite Chapter 6, Season 2.

All henchmen walkie talkie locations in Fortnite

There are seven walkie-talkies you can find around the map. You'll encounter them in five major landmarks, with ones like Lonewolf Lair and Masked Meadows containing two each. Here's a complete list of every walkie-talkie for Fortnite's Espionage quest:

Shiny Shafts

You'll find Shiny Shafts' walkie-talkie inside the large tunnel on its south side. Using the grindable rail to enter it, jump off and head into one of the small rooms, following the white exclamation mark icon until you spot your first walkie on a desk.

Outlaw Oasis

Next is Outlaw Oasis' walkie-talkie. You'll find it inside a building near Valentina. As you enter this building, turn toward the wooden platforms on the ground to spot the walkie.

Crime City

Crime City has one walkie-talkie you can find inside the bank vault building. As you enter this main structure, head up to its third floor to find the walkie on a desk next to a PC monitor.

Lonewolf Lair - Outside

There are two walkie-talkies in Lonewolf Lair. The first is on top of a bench outside of the mansion. Mine was bugged during my initial playthrough, but this is just a visual glitch that won't affect your progress as long as you interact with the spot.

Lonewolf Lair - Inside

After collecting the walkie-talkie above, head inside Lonewolf Lair's mansion and climb up to the second floor. You'll find it on a desk near a laptop. Watch out for other players attempting to break into the POI's bank vault.

Masked Meadows - Outside

Masked Meadows also has two walkie-talkies you can find. The first is inside a building next to the bank vault's mansion. It'll appear as a small structure next to it, where you'll spot the walkie atop another desk.

Masked Meadows - Underground

Last but not least is Masked Meadows' underground network. Using the tunnel entrances scattered around the POI, head underground until you reach a large loot room to find the walkie-talkie atop a table full of gold bars.

Collecting all seven walkie-talkies and eavesdropping on Fletcher Kane's conversation will complete Fortnite's Espionage quest, rewarding you with some valuable XP.

How to score trick points on a motorcycle in Fortnite https://www.destructoid.com/how-to-score-trick-points-on-a-motorcycle-in-fortnite/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=how-to-score-trick-points-on-a-motorcycle-in-fortnite https://www.destructoid.com/how-to-score-trick-points-on-a-motorcycle-in-fortnite/#respond Tue, 25 Mar 2025 16:56:49 +0000 https://www.destructoid.com/?p=1038948 Fortnite motorcycle

If you want to look like the coolest person in your Fortnite match, riding a motorcycle is the way to go. You can earn trick points that show off your skill, even if they don't net you any specific rewards.

Getting trick points isn't easy, though. While you might occasionally get some as you drive around, scoring hundreds of thousands for quests is no easy feat. Here's how to score trick points on a motorcycle in Fortnite.

How to score trick points on a motorcycle in Fortnite Chapter 6, Season 2

The easiest way to score trick points while riding a motorcycle is to drive off mountains and spin in circles in midair. While driving around the map can occasionally net around 1,000 points if you get a lucky jump in, doing midair spins is one of the best ways without using exploits or glitches.

Occasionally, scoring trick points on a motorcycle is a weekly quest in Fortnite. If it does, your typical goal is obtaining around 150,000 to 200,000 points, which can take a while if you use a small hill. Going to a large mountain is the way to go, especially if you receive a few multipliers on the way down.

But there are a few caveats that can reduce your points. If you hit an obstacle like a tree, building, or rock while falling, you'll get an "Ouch" penalty and score far fewer points. Although you may have to sacrifice some points to avoid hitting obstacles, it's almost always worth being extra careful.

Doing tricks near gas stations can also help if your fuel runs low. Motorcycle fuel depletes much quicker, making it easy to run out of fuel in the middle of your trick. However, if you get tens or hundreds of thousands of points with each trick attempt, you won't have to worry too much about this issue.

How to find and use the Kneecapper in Fortnite https://www.destructoid.com/how-to-find-and-use-the-kneecapper-in-fortnite/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=how-to-find-and-use-the-kneecapper-in-fortnite https://www.destructoid.com/how-to-find-and-use-the-kneecapper-in-fortnite/#respond Tue, 18 Mar 2025 21:01:31 +0000 https://www.destructoid.com/?p=1034451 Fortnite kneecapper weapon

Fortnite's Kneecapper baseball bat is one of the most powerful melee weapons ever introduced. With solid damage per second and a charged smash that can send people flying off high ledges, it can singlehandedly carry a game. Here's everything you need to know about Fortnite's Kneecapper weapon.

Where to find the Kneecapper in Fortnite

Your best bet for obtaining the Kneecapper is to open Rare Chests around Fortnite's map or Go-Bags introduced in Chapter 6, Season 2. These have much higher odds of dropping epic-tier weapons and higher than regular treasure chests and floor drops, especially if you open rare chests inside Fletcher Kane's bank vaults.

The Kneecapper can also spawn in regular treasure chests, on the ground, and as player elimination drops. While it doesn't appear as often from these sources, you can still get lucky and encounter it. Targeting a player you notice using a Kneecapper will guarantee the drop, giving you a quick and easy way to grab this weapon and use it for the rest of the match.

How to use the Kneecapper in Fortnite

Fortnite's Kneecapper weapon attacks using regular swings and a charged smash. Its regular attacks are fast, hard-hitting swings that inflict around 20 damage points per hit, while the charged smash deals knockback to whoever you hit.

The main purpose of the Kneecapper is to deal quick damage before your enemy has a chance to fight back. It has no traversal abilities like the Sub-Zero Combat Kit or increased damage against vault doors like the Rocket Drill. In most cases, it's all about rushing your opponent and hitting them before they can run away and shoot at you.

Its real strength, though, comes from its charged smash. Alongside doing much more damage, its knockback can send your opponent flying off buildings, cliffs, and structures if you play build mode. If you angle your attack right, you can even send them off into the storm. What would generally be an already hefty hit can quickly turn into a one-shot strike, depending on the situation. If you get your hands on a Kneecapper, scaling a mountain or building and knocking your enemies away is the way to go.

Fortnite kneecapper weapon

Fortnite's Kneecapper baseball bat is one of the most powerful melee weapons ever introduced. With solid damage per second and a charged smash that can send people flying off high ledges, it can singlehandedly carry a game. Here's everything you need to know about Fortnite's Kneecapper weapon.

Where to find the Kneecapper in Fortnite

Your best bet for obtaining the Kneecapper is to open Rare Chests around Fortnite's map or Go-Bags introduced in Chapter 6, Season 2. These have much higher odds of dropping epic-tier weapons and higher than regular treasure chests and floor drops, especially if you open rare chests inside Fletcher Kane's bank vaults.

How to complete Party Up Spring Raid quests in Fortnite

Fortnite's Spring Raid quests have two main objectives you'll complete from now until March 31, 2025:

That's right: this is also a team mission. Playing these by yourself won't count toward Spring Raid's objectives.

You can match up with a friend, a random player, or an alt, depending on your preferences.

All Outlaw Chest locations in Fortnite Chapter 6, Season 2 https://www.destructoid.com/all-outlaw-chest-locations-in-fortnite/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=all-outlaw-chest-locations-in-fortnite https://www.destructoid.com/all-outlaw-chest-locations-in-fortnite/#respond Mon, 17 Mar 2025 19:54:10 +0000 https://www.destructoid.com/?p=1033750 Fortnite outlaw chest

Fortnite's Outlaw chests can be some of the most useful containers to open during Chapter 6, Season 2, if you have the right keycard upgrades. While opening these requires dedicating time to quests, their rewards can make or break a round if you're lucky.

However, there aren't many Outlaw chests around the map. You'll only find three per match, and there's a chance you'll encounter players looking to open them. Here's everything you need to know about Outlaw chests in Fortnite, including their locations, how to open them, and whether they're worth opening in the first place.

How to unlock Outlaw Chests in Fortnite

Unlocking Outlaw chests in Fortnite requires unlocking a rare-tier Outlaw Keycard. You'll upgrade your keycard as you complete Outlaw Keycard missions, which you can find more details about in your quest list.

Fortnite outlaw keycard quest list
Screenshot by Destructoid

The Outlaw Keycard mission originally required the Fortnite community to band together and rob Fletcher Kane's vaults. After completing this community quest, solo missions were released, with each stage helping you progress through an Outlaw Keycard progression line. Here's a list of every quest you can complete:

  • Rob Vaults
  • Eliminate bosses or guards
  • Spend bars
  • Collect Boons or Medallions

Each objective has five stages. Once you finish ten stages across these four missions, you'll unlock the rare Outlaw Keycard, letting you open Outlaw chests around the map.

All Outlaw Chest locations in Fortnite

You can find up to three Outlaw chests as you explore Fortnite's map. All three chests are within the backrooms of black markets scattered around the world. You'll find each black market north of Crime City, within Magic Mosses, and south of Seaport City. Here's every Outlaw chest location within these markets.

Crime City

The Crime City black market houses an Outlaw chest near the exotic weapon display cases. After entering the backrooms, head forward and turn left to find two exotic cases and the chest against the back wall.

Seaport City

Seaport City's black market backrooms also has an Outlaw chest against one of its back walls. As you enter this room, look around where Midas is wandering before turning right toward the wall. You'll spot an exotic display case and the chest, ready to open.

Magic Mosses

The Magic Mosses black market has the last Outlaw chest, which you'll find after entering the backrooms, jumping down the railing, and turning right. You'll spot it behind the display case holding Brutus' Minigun.

Are Fortnite's Outlaw Chests worth opening?

If you plan on visiting a Black Market during a Fortnite match, it's worth quickly hopping into its backrooms and opening an Outlaw chest. However, if you've completed enough quests to obtain a Legendary Outlaw Keycard, these chests go from somewhat helpful to incredibly overpowered.

Opening an Outlaw chest using a rare Outlaw Keycard grants you a weapon, shield potions, and other small amounts of loot. If you get a Legendary Outlaw Keycard instead, you're guaranteed a Dill Bit, two shield potions, and a weapon that's at least Legendary tier. The Dill Bit, in particular, lets you quickly buy a Mythic or Exotic weapon. You can easily set up a powerful loadout that lasts the entire match. Better yet, you can do this every game, as doing this doesn't consume your Legendary Outlaw Keycard.

Fortnite: All Wanted Midas quests and how to complete them https://www.destructoid.com/fortnite-all-wanted-midas-quests-and-how-to-complete-them/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=fortnite-all-wanted-midas-quests-and-how-to-complete-them https://www.destructoid.com/fortnite-all-wanted-midas-quests-and-how-to-complete-them/#respond Mon, 17 Mar 2025 16:33:34 +0000 https://www.destructoid.com/?p=1032234 Fortnite image featuring Midas and Fletcher Kane

Fortnite's Wanted quest line during Chapter 6, Season 2 is about draining Fletcher Kane's resources and preventing him from dominating the world. While most missions specifically targeted him, Midas' series dives deeper into the world and events from previous seasons. Here's a complete guide to finishing Fortnite's Wanted: Midas quests.

Fortnite Wanted: Midas quest walkthrough

After completing Joss' missions and the Outlaw Keycard community quest, you'll receive a basic keycard and Midas' quest series. Rather than breaking into more of Fletcher Kane's vaults and robbing him of everything he's worth, you'll instead learn more about last season's events and their lingering effects, particularly when it comes to magical energy.

That said, here's a complete list of all six Fortnite's Wanted: Midas stages and how to finish them.

Stage One

Midas doesn't fully trust our character to carry out his work and seek out the other outlaws. Because of this, our first objective is to complete a Shadow Briefing and earn his trust before anything else.

Fortnite shadow briefing map locations
Screenshot by Destructoid

Shadow Briefings are mini objectives you can complete in your matches for rewards. They appear as terminals on your map in most landmarks, particularly in Shiny Shafts, Foxy Floodgate, Seaport City, and Shogun's Solitude. You can also find them in unmarked locations near major POIs. There are 21 potential spawn spots for Shadow Briefings, but only 10 or so will appear per round.

Unlike regular quests, Shadow Briefings are timed objectives you have to complete within a few minutes. Fortunately, they're designed to be somewhat easy to complete in this timeframe as long as you're proactive in searching for enemy players and finishing your goal. Once you complete a Shadow Briefing, Midas will begin to trust you, letting you move on to the next stage.

Stage Two

Although Midas is closer to trusting you, you must also convince the other outlaws you're on their side. To do this, you'll have to head to any Black Market around Fortnite's map and spend 1,000 bars. What you buy is entirely up to you, but buying a weapon or two is the quickest way to finish this.

Fortnite Black Market

You'll find three Black Market locations near Seaport City, Magic Mosses, and Crime City. It doesn't matter which you visit, but each spot has different wares to help you during your matches. Otherwise, you can go wherever you wish and buy enough to complete the quest goal.

Stage Three

Midas and the other outlaws now trust you enough to tell you more about their plan. However, you have one more roadblock to get past: Outlaw Keycards. Before advancing further, you'll need to unlock a rare quality Outlaw Keycard by spending bars, robbing vaults, and eliminating bosses or guards throughout your Fortnite matches. You can see your progress by heading into your quest list and selecting Outlaw Keycard.

Fortnite outlaw keycard quest list
Screenshot by Destructoid

The objectives you complete are entirely up to you. My strategy was to finish all five tiers of Midas' "Spend Bars" task before robbing a few vaults and using Dill Bits to buy Boons from Black Markets. I finished a few stages of Skillet's Rob Vaults task and almost every Medallion stage. Along the way, I barely defeated enough guards to knock out a stage of Keisha's task, giving me the rare keycard.

Once you obtain a rare quality keycard, head to any Black Market backrooms and unlock their Outlaw Chest to finish the quest task.

Stage Four

With another challenging task out of the way, it's time to equip a special sensor backpack and scan mysterious energy signatures that originated from the first half of this season. You'll find the backpack south of Crime City inside a blue crate.

Once you equip the backpack, you'll spot three energy signatures nearby, indicated by numbered map icons. As you approach them, you'll find flowy blue energy in the air you can interact with to advance through the quest. Collect all three to finish Midas' fourth quest stage.

Stage Five

Now that you've scanned some mysterious energy signatures, it's time to revisit a location from previous Wanted quests. Your destination is an underground base in Masked Meadows, where you'll find a mask-making book on the floor in front of a lamp.

Fortnite mask-making book location

If you're unfamiliar with this location, you can find it by heading down one of the underground tunnel entrances around Masked Meadows. They'll look like large holes you can enter using a pulley, leading to tunnel systems connected to this location. From here, it's just a matter of following the white exclamation mark icon until you find the book.

Stage Six

Scanning energy signatures and reading this book will reveal information about a Zero Point Shard that Midas is interested in hearing about. With everything else out of the way, head to the Black Market area north of Masked Meadows and south of Seaport City to find Midas inside its backrooms. Talk to him about the Zero Point Shard to complete his Wanted quest series, which will give you a bunch of account XP and bring you one step closer to learning more about Fortnite's world.

In Fortnite, after proving to Midas and the other outlaws that you're trustworthy, Midas will task you with scanning mysterious energy signatures with a special backpack. What is this backpack? What are mysterious energy signatures? This season's events raise many questions, and we've got the answers you're looking for.

How to scan mysterious energy signatures in Fortnite

You'll initially find the sensor backpack for scanning mysterious energy signatures just south of Crime City and north of Canyon Crossing. As you approach the marked spot on your map, you'll find a small building with a blue crate containing your sensor backpack. Interact with this crate to receive your backpack.

After equipping the backpack, head to the three nearby map markers to find blue swirling energy. The right-most one is easy to find, while the left one sits on a ruined dragon formation. The third and final one is the trickiest to find, as it's situated in front of the paw of a wolf statue you use to complete the Join the Wolf Pack secret quest.

From here, you can scan each signature by running up to them and interacting with them. You don't need any weapons, but having one will help you defend against other players completing this quest. Once you interact with all three energy signatures, you'll complete this scanning mission and move on to Midas' fifth stage. This fifth stage is also straightforward, but you'll need to travel down to Masked Meadows for it.

How to purchase an item from an Outlaw Vending Machine in Fortnite https://www.destructoid.com/how-to-purchase-an-item-from-an-outlaw-vending-machine-in-fortnite/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=how-to-purchase-an-item-from-an-outlaw-vending-machine-in-fortnite https://www.destructoid.com/how-to-purchase-an-item-from-an-outlaw-vending-machine-in-fortnite/#respond Fri, 14 Mar 2025 23:19:38 +0000 https://www.destructoid.com/?p=1032381 Fortnite Outlaw vending machine

As you progress through your Outlaw Keycard quests in Fortnite, you'll encounter an objective asking to purchase an item from an Outlaw Vending Machine. Where do you find these? How much do items cost? Are any of them worth it? That's what we're here to find out.

How to find an Outlaw Vending Machine in Fortnite Chapter 6, Season 2

Outlaw vending machines mainly appear in Seaport City, Masked Meadows, and Crime City. Throughout these landmarks, you'll find vending machine icons on your map, usually appearing alongside decorative machines. These three spots also have multiple vending machines, so you don't have to worry about searching an entire city for one location.

Each vending machine usually has one of Fortnite's outlaws' names, such as Joss, Skillet, or Keisha Cross. If you see a name along the lines of "Joss' Vending Machine," you'll know you're in the right spot. They usually have a bright and colorful appearance, differentiating them from regular decorative items around the map.

Every vending machine offers two Thermite for 100 gold bars and a Plasma Burst Laser for 600 gold bars. The third and final item differs from each machine, but it's usually an epic-quality gun like an AR, sniper rifle, or SMG. These weapons almost always cost 600 gold bars, so make sure to save up some money before visiting one. Even outside of quests, vending machines are helpful if you want to break into a vault and need Thermite or want a quick and easy weapon.

Getting enough gold for these items is pretty easy if you break into enough vaults, eliminate a few players, or open a bunch of treasure chests for loot. You can also break gold veins for some extra bars and the Gold Rush buff for a quick movement speed boost.

Fortnite Outlaw vending machine

As you progress through your Outlaw Keycard quests in Fortnite, you'll encounter an objective asking to purchase an item from an Outlaw Vending Machine. Where do you find these? How much do items cost? Are any of them worth it? That's what we're here to find out.

How to find an Outlaw Vending Machine in Fortnite Chapter 6, Season 2

Outlaw vending machines mainly appear in Seaport City, Masked Meadows, and Crime City. Throughout these landmarks, you'll find vending machine icons on your map, usually appearing alongside decorative machines. These three spots also have multiple vending machines, so you don't have to worry about searching an entire city for one location.

Each vending machine usually has one of Fortnite's outlaws' names, such as Joss, Skillet, or Keisha Cross. If you see a name along the lines of "Joss' Vending Machine," you'll know you're in the right spot. They usually have a bright and colorful appearance, differentiating them from regular decorative items around the map.

Every vending machine offers two Thermite for 100 gold bars and a Plasma Burst Laser for 600 gold bars. The third and final item differs from each machine, but it's usually an epic-quality gun like an AR, sniper rifle, or SMG. These weapons almost always cost 600 gold bars, so make sure to save up some money before visiting one. Even outside of quests, vending machines are helpful if you want to break into a vault and need Thermite or want a quick and easy weapon.

All Fortnite Shadow Briefing Locations in Chapter 6 Season 2 https://www.destructoid.com/all-fortnite-shadow-briefing-locations-in-chapter-6-season-2/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=all-fortnite-shadow-briefing-locations-in-chapter-6-season-2 https://www.destructoid.com/all-fortnite-shadow-briefing-locations-in-chapter-6-season-2/#respond Fri, 14 Mar 2025 19:43:42 +0000 https://www.destructoid.com/?p=592788 All Fortnite Shadow Briefing Locations in Chapter 5 Season 4

The brand new season of Fortnite has once again changed up the locations of all the Shadow Briefings, which are a crucial part of the shooter. You can take on challenges to earn bonus XP and rewards for completing the Shadow Briefing mission in time. Here's where you can find all of the Fortnite Shadow Briefing Locations in Chapter 6 Season 2.

Shadow Briefing Locations in Chapter 6 Season 2

In Chapter 6 Season 2, there are 21 total Shadow Briefing spawn locations in Fortnite. It's important to keep in mind that the Shadow Briefing terminal won't spawn at all of these locations each match. Instead, a handful of these locations, typically about 10, will spawn the Shadow Briefing terminals, in a rotation that randomizes each time. It's helpful to keep the map up so you can look in nearby areas each match until you learn where they can all spawn. Here are all the Fortnite Shadow Briefing Locations in Chapter 6 Season 2:

  • Houses Northwest of Flooded Frogs
  • Peninsula Northeast of Flooded Frogs
  • Mountaintop Southwest of Flooded Frogs
  • End of Railroad Southwest of Wiffy Wharf
  • Warehouse South of Wiffy Wharf
  • Magic Mosses
  • Brutal Boxcars
  • Pumped Power
  • Demon's Dojo
  • Railhouse North of Shining Span
  • Seaport City
  • Foxy Floodgate
  • Kappa Kappa Factory
  • Hopeful Heights
  • Southeast of Masked Meadows
  • Garden Maze South of Masked Meadows
  • Shogun's Solitude
  • Canyon Crossing
  • Shiny Shafts
  • Castle Southwest of Outlaw Oasis
  • Field Southwest of Crime City

You can also check the map above to see all the locations as is indicated by the yellow X's. There are several quests tied to the locations of the Shadow Briefings, so make sure you do them before the locations once again change with the start of the new season. They are typically scattered across the map, so usually, you can find one in close proximity regardless of where you drop, but because of the randomization that's never guaranteed.

How to unlock the Black Market backroom with the Outlaw Keycard in Fortnite https://www.destructoid.com/how-to-unlock-the-black-market-backroom-with-the-outlaw-keycard-in-fortnite/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=how-to-unlock-the-black-market-backroom-with-the-outlaw-keycard-in-fortnite https://www.destructoid.com/how-to-unlock-the-black-market-backroom-with-the-outlaw-keycard-in-fortnite/#respond Fri, 14 Mar 2025 18:45:27 +0000 https://www.destructoid.com/?p=1032257 Fortnite exotic weapon in the backrooms

Now that the Fortnite community has come together to steal some of Fletcher Kane's gold, it's time to reward ourselves with Mythic and Exotic weapons. To get these weapons, you'll have to use an Outlaw Keycard to unlock Black Market backrooms scattered around the map.

How to unlock a Black Market backroom door in Fortnite

Using your Outlaw Keycard to unlock a Black Market backroom door requires heading to one of the Black Markets near Crime City, Seaport City, and Magic Mosses before searching for large red, blue, or green doors. Here, you'll find a locked digital keypad that, after interacting with it, will open the door to the market's backrooms. Now, with these doors permanently open, you can buy Mythic and Exotic weapons using Dill Bits whenever you wish.

All Black Market backroom locations in Fortnite

Each of Fortnite's three Black Markets has its own backrooms you can unlock after logging in and claiming your Outlaw Keycard. Here's the complete list of every backroom location:

Crime City

First is Crime City's Black Market, which you'll spot directly north of the POI on your map. The backrooms entrance is next to the grindable rail connected to the Black Market's east entrance.

Seaport City

Next up is the Black Market near Masked Meadows and Seaport City. You'll find the backrooms next to the Black Market's tunnel entrance.

Magic Mosses

Last but not least is the Magic Mosses backrooms. You'll find the Black Market right in the center of the POI, marked with a colorful potion splash art on the wall next to its staircase. The backrooms are next to Joss, opposite the Medkit and Shield Potion displays.

Throughout Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 2, you'll rob trains, break into bank vaults, and dive into black markets to acquire their wares. Along the way, you'll hear about special Mythic and Exotic-grade weapons that, although expensive, can easily secure you a win if you get them early.

How to unlock Outlaw Exotic and Mythic weapons in Fortnite

Most of Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 2's Outlaw Mythic and Exotic weapons are available after completing the game's Outlaw Keycard Community quests. After the community robs enough vaults to finish the quest, you'll unlock another set of objectives that level up your keycard rarity. An Uncommon-grade keycard lets you access Fortnite's Black Market backrooms to purchase Mythic and Exotic weapons.

As of March 14, 2025, the community quest is now complete. We can officially enter the backrooms and purchase Mythic and Exotic-tier weapons as long as we have the Dill Bits to afford them.

Fortnite Outlaw Keycard quests

Since the Outlaw Keycard quest is a community mission, you and everyone who plays Fortnite must try your best to rob as many vaults and cases as possible to reach 100 percent. From here, completing the second quest set lets you upgrade your keycard, unlock the backrooms, and spend Dill Bits on the game's strongest items. Here's a list of some weapons you can obtain:

  • Lawless Slap Cannon
  • Lawless Blink Pump & Dump
  • Lawless Stink Rifle
  • Lawless Shockwave Rocket Launcher
  • Lawless Trinity Assault Rifle
  • Lawless Heavy Impact Tracking Rifle

Although these backrooms have most of the high-value Mythic and Exotic weapons we're looking for, you'll also find additional Mythic-grade items in the Black Markets themselves. Crime City now features a Mythic Pump & Dump weapon, while Seaport City still has a Mythic Falcon Eye Sniper. These all require Dill Bits to buy, so break into a few vaults before going on your shopping trip.

Alongside the Lawless items within black market backrooms, you'll also find weapons like the Rocket Drill, Outlaw Shotgun, and the Pump & Dump through chest drops, floor loot, and player eliminations. These aren't nearly as powerful, but they have their own upsides despite their more common rarities.

All Black Market backroom locations in Fortnite

Fortnite features three Black Market locations near Crime City, Seaport City, and Magic Mosses. Within them, you'll find locked doors that are only accessible using keycards. Here's a list of every black market and their backroom location:

Black Market Backroom location
Crime City Next to the grind bar connected to the Black Market's east entrance. You'll spot it opposite the Legendary Sticky Grenade Launcher display.
Seaport City/Masked Meadows Next to the Black Market's tunnel entrance. You'll spot it near the Mythic Falcon Sniper display.
Magic Mosses Next to Joss, opposite the Medkit and Shield Potion display.

All Black Market backrooms Mythic and Exotic weapons

Now that every Fortnite player has an Outlaw Keycard, we can access Black Market backrooms and purchase some Mythic and Exotic-grade weapons. Every Mythic and Exotic weapon costs one Dill Bit, regardless of their rarity or power. Here's a list of every black market location and their Mythic/Exotic weapon stock:

Crime City

  • Pump & Dump (Mythic)
  • Enhanced outlaw Shotgun (Mythic)
  • Lawless Shockwave Rocket Launcher (Exotic)
  • Lawless Blink Pump & Dump (Exotic)

Magic Mosses

  • Enhanced Collateral Damage AR (Mythic)

Fortnite's Outlaw Keycard quest is a unique series involving the community banding together and taking all of Fletcher Kane's gold. He's been robbing everyone blind, so it's time for us to fight back. In return, we'll gain Outlaw Keycards to access Black Market backrooms.

Fortnite Outlaw Keycard quest walkthrough

Fortnite outlaw keycard quest list
Screenshot by Destructoid

During the first few days of Fortnite's Outlaw Keycard quest series, the first mission was to rob bank vaults as a community until we collectively reached 100 percent. As of March 14, 2025, this objective has reached 100 percent, unlocking the rest of the quests and our Outlaw Keycard rewards.

Below is every Outlaw Keycard quest and how to complete them:

Quest Requirement
Rob Vaults Like Fletcher Kane's original community quest, you can complete this by breaking into bank vaults or armored vehicles around Fortnite's map. You can obtain Thermite through Black Markets or duffle bags and place them on large vault doors marked on your map. After defeating four guard waves, you'll unlock the vault and its goodies.
Eliminate bosses or guards You'll find Fletcher Kane's guards in most large POIs, particularly around vaults in Crime City, Seaport City, and Masked Meadows. You can also defeat Fletcher Kane himself or Shogun X to advance this quest and obtain medallions.
Spend bars The easiest way to spend bars is to visit Black Markets and purchase weapons. You can get gold bars by opening chests, robbing vaults, and eliminating other players. You can also buy items from vending machines and NPCs.
Collect Boons or Medallions You can obtain Medallions by defeating Fletcher Kane and Shogun X or picking them up from players carrying them. Alternatively, you can purchase Boons from Black Markets.

As you complete each quest, you'll upgrade your Outlaw Keycard to unlock additional services in Black Market backrooms, including hiring NPCs to fight alongside you and buying weapon loadouts.

How to get the free Dupli-Kate skin in Fortnite https://www.destructoid.com/how-to-get-the-free-dupli-kate-skin-in-fortnite/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=how-to-get-the-free-dupli-kate-skin-in-fortnite https://www.destructoid.com/how-to-get-the-free-dupli-kate-skin-in-fortnite/#respond Fri, 14 Mar 2025 16:17:54 +0000 https://www.destructoid.com/?p=1032126 Promotional image of Dupli-Kate outfit in Fortnite

If you've watched, read, or heard of Invincible, you're likely familiar with Dupli-Kate. Now, Dupli-Kate has made her way into Fortnite as a free skin, but you'll need to finish a few quests to unlock her. Thankfully, as long as you have a friend to help, you can finish these quickly.

How to unlock the free Dupli-Kate outfit in Fortnite

From now until March 31, 2025, you can unlock Fortnite's free Dupli-Kate outfit by completing Party Up Spring Raid quests. In your quest menu, you'll spot "Party Up - Spring Raid" near the top of the list, showing up to nine rewards you can obtain. Dupli-Kate is the ninth and final prize, so you'll have to wait until every mission appears before unlocking her outfit.

Fortnite Dupli-Kate quest list
Screenshot by Destructoid

Completing Spring Raid quests requires teaming up with a friend or an alt account and playing a mix of custom games made by Epic Games and content creators. You can access these by heading to your main game screen and scrolling through your game options until you find a "By Epic" experience or any custom game. You can also use the magnifying glass icon in the top left corner of your screen to search for a game if you wish.

If you have a favorite creator game, you can hop into their game and get some XP. For anyone who prefers sticking to the Invincible theme for these quests, you've got Invincible Universe: Rise of the Sequids, among other options, to check out. What you play is up to you, as long as you have someone with you.

That's right: this isn't a solo mission. Any XP you gain from custom games won't count if you attempt this solo. You need at least one other person with you, but you're free to invite more to turn it into a big party. If you don't have friends to join you, you can hop into social media channels like Fortnite's official Discord server or create an alt account and play with that.

Spring Raid's first quest set won't be enough to unlock Dupli-Kate immediately. Fortunately, Epic Games is releasing more quests every couple of days, so you'll need to check back occasionally to grind some XP and claim each reward. Dupli-Kate is the final prize on this list, so don't be surprised if it takes a couple of weeks to get there. The event ends on March 31, so you'll have some extra time to hop on if you're busy beforehand.

Fortnite's Golden Gunslinger quests are released over several weeks. While its first week includes seven objectives that unlock a few reward tiers, you won't encounter the rest until later this month. Here's the complete list of Golden Gunslinger quests and tips for finishing them:

Drop One

Quest Description Reward
Eliminate Fletcher Kane or guards from his Pack (20) Travel to any bank vault or armored vehicle around Fortnite's map to encounter Fletcher Kane's guards. You can also find Fletcher Kane himself by visiting any vault with his map icon present. 30K XP
Deal 100 damage to opponents with a single shotgun blast (3) You can find any shotgun through treasure chest rewards, floor loot, or player elimination drops. The higher its rarity, the more damage it'll inflict. You can also buy shotguns from Crime City's Black Market. 30K XP
Collect or spend Bars in a single match (1,500) You'll collect Gold Bars over time as you loot chests, eliminate players, and break into bank vaults. If you already have enough Gold Bars, head to any Black Market or Vending Machine and purchase a few weapons until you hit 1,500 spent. 30K XP
Travel distance on Grindable Rails (200) You'll find Grindable Rails in POIs like Shiny Shafts and inside Black Market tunnels. Ride around on these rails until you complete the objective. You can complete this over multiple matches if needed. 30K XP
Open Vaults (3) You'll find bank vaults in Lonewolf Lair, Crime City, Masked Meadows, and Seaport City. Head to any of these landmarks and use Thermite to break open their doors. You can do this over several matches. 30K XP
Collect different Medallions or Boons (4) Medallions appear as drops from Fletcher Kane and Shogun X when you defeat them. You can also pick up Medallions from players if they have one equipped. Alternatively, you can purchase Boons from Black Markets. 30K XP
Survive Storm Circles (20) You'll naturally progress through this objective as you play Fortnite matches and survive past the first few minutes. The longer you last in a round, the more storm circles you'll survive. 30K XP

Golden Gunslinger's second drop will begin on March 18, 2025, at 10 a.m. ET. If you complete every quest above, you'll have to wait until this time to get your next set of objectives and rewards.

How to unlock and upgrade Outlaw Keycards in Fortnite Chapter 6, Season 2 https://www.destructoid.com/how-to-get-outlaw-keycards-in-fortnite/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=how-to-get-outlaw-keycards-in-fortnite https://www.destructoid.com/how-to-get-outlaw-keycards-in-fortnite/#respond Wed, 12 Mar 2025 19:41:09 +0000 https://www.destructoid.com/?p=1029377 Fortnite Outlaw Keycard featured image

Fortnite Chapter 6, Season 2's v34.10 update is the community's moment to shine as we band together to take down Fletcher Kane. Rather than fighting him as a boss, though, we're robbing his vaults and stealing his gold to punish his greed.

Participating in this event lets you officially join the Outlaw Faction and gain an Outlaw Keycard. While upgrading the basic keycard doesn't do much at first, it opens access to Black Market backrooms, loadouts, and outlaw chests, among other rewards. Here's everything you need to know about outlaw factions and keycards.

How to unlock Outlaw Keycards in Fortnite

You'll unlock your first Outlaw Keycard by participating in the Outlaw Keycard community quest available during Chapter 6, Season 2. Unlike regular quests, this one is a community mission, so your progression will largely depend on other Fortnite players pulling their weight. To participate, head into any match and rob Fletcher Kane's bank vaults of all their gold.

Since this is a community event, you won't be able to unlock and use Outlaw Keycards right away. During the first 24 hours of the event, the quest bar only increased by 11 percent. Hours later, it jumped up to 20 percent, but this slow progression proves it'll take several days to access these features firsthand. You can check their progress by heading into your quest menu and choosing the Outlaw Keycard series.

How to upgrade Outlaw Keycards in Fortnite

Once the Fortnite community reaches 100 percent on this quest, you'll officially obtain a basic keycard and unlock a second set of quests to upgrade it. After completing five objectives, you'll upgrade to an uncommon Outlaw Keycard, while rarer varieties require 10 quests, 15, and so on.

The basic Outlaw Keycard lets you access Fortnite's Black Market backrooms, with Mythic and Exotic-tier weapons arriving after obtaining its uncommon version. These are among the most powerful weapons in the game, making you a nearly unstoppable force to be reckoned with. Here are the effects of every keycard rarity and their quest requirements:

Keycard tier Quests Reward
Common Outlaw Keycard 1 Gain access to Black Market backrooms.
Uncommon Outlaw Keycard 5 Lets you buy Mythic and Exotic items within Black Market backrooms. You'll also find NPCs to hire to fight alongside you.
Rare Outlaw Keycard 10 Lets you open any Outlaw Chest in Black Market backrooms for free.
Epic Outlaw Keycard 15 You can now purchase premium loadouts from Black Market shopkeepers for gold bars.
Legendary Outlaw Keycard 20 Outlaw Chests will now drop a Legendary item and a Dill Bit.

The Black Market backrooms alone are worth robbing a few bank vaults to help this community quest progress. Beyond this, you'll unlock Outlaw Chests within these backrooms that hold valuable items, including a legendary item, and Dill Bit if you reach the Outlaw Keycard's final tier.

How to mine Gold Veins in Fortnite https://www.destructoid.com/how-to-mine-gold-veins-in-fortnite/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=how-to-mine-gold-veins-in-fortnite https://www.destructoid.com/how-to-mine-gold-veins-in-fortnite/#respond Tue, 11 Mar 2025 18:25:23 +0000 https://www.destructoid.com/?p=1029724 Fortnite gold vein

It's very satisfying to pick up a bunch of gold bars in Fortnite and go on a spending spree. If you break gold rock veins, you'll even get a handy speed boost to help you charge toward other players and secure some easy eliminations.

However, you won't find these gold veins just anywhere. Although they spawn often on the map, you'll have to visit specific spots to take full advantage of them. Here's how to find gold veins for your weekly and event quests.

Where to find Gold Veins in Fortnite Chapter 6, Season 2

The best way to find gold veins in Fortnite is to travel around the gold-infused rivers near Crime City and Shiny Shafts. This region on the map's west side has golden mountains, rocks, and water flowing throughout it, with gold vein rocks dotted along the river's edges.

Gold veins appear as dark grey and gold rocks that shimmer as you approach them. Unlike regular boulders, these rocks have much more obvious gold chunks sticking out of them, with small gold sparkles emanating from them. Once you've seen them, they become pretty easy to spot later.

Each rock has 250 health, so you can quickly break them with your pickaxe or your preferred weapon. Having Gold Rush makes them even easier to break, so you won't have to worry about spending several minutes standing around and hitting rocks.

You'll often find clusters around Crime City and Shiny Shafts' waters, giving you an easy way to complete your weekly quests. The gold veins also drop the Gold Rush buff that boosts your movement speed and around 30 Gold Bars per rock, letting you farm some cash if you plan on visiting a nearby Black Market or vending machine.

How to find 3 Golden Llamas in Fortnite https://www.destructoid.com/how-to-find-golden-llamas-in-fortnite/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=how-to-find-golden-llamas-in-fortnite https://www.destructoid.com/how-to-find-golden-llamas-in-fortnite/#respond Tue, 11 Mar 2025 15:58:56 +0000 https://www.destructoid.com/?p=1029595 Fortnite golden llama

Have you ever encountered a Golden Llama in Fortnite's modes? Although regular llamas occasionally appear as rare loot sources, golden versions are almost unheard of except during various events. Considering Chapter 6, Season 2 is all about gold, this one feels particularly fitting.

How to find Golden Llamas in Fortnite Chapter 6, Season 2

Golden Llamas are rare loot containers that spawn randomly around Fortnite's map. Since they have random spawns, there's no one specific location to camp if you wish to find them as part of a weekly quest or event. Instead, your goal is to survive as long as possible and move around the map in hopes of spotting one of these in the wild.

Fortnite golden llama appearance

Golden Llamas appear as a goofy-looking gold llama that's slightly smaller than the player's model. If you're familiar with the game's rainbow versions from previous seasons, they look almost the exact same with a distinct color change.

Since Golden Llamas can spawn anywhere, there's a chance you'll encounter them in strange spots like the sides of cliffs, near the edge of the map, or on top of massive mountains. I even found one of a cliff's edge that I could barely navigate, making it a little tricky to search it for loot. Sometimes, it requires a bit of trial and error.

If you're focused on completing your quests and don't mind risking a loss or two, you can start gliding from the Battle Bus immediately after jumping out to help you search for Golden Llamas from a bird's-eye view. Although you won't reach the ground as quickly, you might get lucky and spot one from the skies, letting you drop to its exact spot and claim it before someone else accidentally stumbles upon it. Otherwise, you can just play your matches normally and hope you find one by chance.

How to find Pump and Dump in Fortnite https://www.destructoid.com/how-to-find-pump-and-dump-in-fortnite/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=how-to-find-pump-and-dump-in-fortnite https://www.destructoid.com/how-to-find-pump-and-dump-in-fortnite/#respond Tue, 11 Mar 2025 15:15:33 +0000 https://www.destructoid.com/?p=1029535 Fortnite pump and dump weapon

Fortnite Chapter 6, Season 2 has numerous peculiar weapons, from the Sub-Zero Combat Kit to Big Dill's favorite, the Pump & Dump. Acting as both a shotgun and SMG, the Pump & Dump gives you a two-in-one special at the cost of using a bunch of ammo.

Where to find Pump and Dump in Fortnite

You can find the Pump & Dump shotgun-SMG-mix as chest loot, floor spawns, and player elimination drops during your Fortnite matches. At any point during your match, you can find this gun — usually as a rare-grade drop — like you would any other weapon.

Although the rarity of the Pump & Dump weapon varies, you'll usually find it as a rare-tier gun glowing blue. This makes it relatively common compared to epic, legendary, and Mythic-grade variants, but you won't necessarily see it everywhere. However, I tend to have much better luck finding this in Ranked mode than unranked, so it's worth a quick swap if you've yet to encounter this weapon.

How to find a Mythic Pump and Dump in Fortnite

Alongside regular chest and floor drops, you can find a Mythic-grade Pump & Dump weapon at the Crime City Black Market for one Dill Bit. Upon running in and approaching the spot Skillet hovers around, you'll spot a display case containing the Mythic Pump & Dump to buy at any point during your match. This one is, unsurprisingly, much more powerful than its rare-tier counterpart but is far more challenging to obtain.

Since you need Dill Bits, you'll have to break into one of Fletcher Kane's vaults or armored vehicles to claim some of these coins before venturing to Crime City's Black Market and claiming the item. There's a high chance you'll find other players along the way, so watch your surroundings in case someone tries to initiate an unexpected fight.

March Madness hits LEGO Fortnite: Brick Life Soccer and Odyssey Recycler Station take center stage https://www.destructoid.com/march-madness-hits-lego-fortnite-brick-life-soccer-and-odyssey-recycler-station-take-center-stage/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=march-madness-hits-lego-fortnite-brick-life-soccer-and-odyssey-recycler-station-take-center-stage https://www.destructoid.com/march-madness-hits-lego-fortnite-brick-life-soccer-and-odyssey-recycler-station-take-center-stage/#respond Mon, 10 Mar 2025 20:34:01 +0000 https://www.destructoid.com/?p=1028853 Carmine Rosso and Rebel Oro skins

LEGO Fortnite underwent major changes since its inception, from the Odyssey name change to the launch of Grand Theft Auto-esque Brick Life. It'll get bigger and better with the March 2025 update, featuring a brand-new soccer stadium and crafting recipe.

Starting on March 11, Brick Life players can kick it on the soccer field, where they can take on the latest 90-second minigame. Score the most goals to win 1,000 Creds and a trophy to place in your home. Houses will also receive a new mailbox system allowing you to react to another player's designs for extra Creds. It'll be great for the Wishing Well challenge or if you want to become Brick Life's next millionaire.

In response to Brick Life's inventory limitation issues, earned or bought items will now be sent to your mailbox. No longer will you have to lose out on your precious rewards, previously inaccessible with an overloaded inventory. Plus, you don't have to go wee wee wee all the way home to get your valuables since they'll all be available via the public mailbox.

The spotlight will then shine on LEGO Fortnite Odyssey on March 25, introducing the new Recyler, Wall Mount change, and Storm King fixes. Any unwanted materials like Charms and weapons can be thrown into the Recyler, providing you with beneficial resources. You can also organize your materials better using Wall Mounts as a label, similar to Minecraft and Disney Dreamlight Valley's signs. I particularly look forward to this new feature in light of how messy my storage space can get.

There are a bunch of new attacks and movements to go around, including the upcoming sprint strike and jump changes. In the current patch, jump attacks have been pretty wonky with damage rates, but it'll be resolved with the March 25 update.

Like all LEGO Fortnite updates, March brings a new LEGO Pass, showcasing a Goldrush Gallery theme. Claim the two new outfits, Carmine Rosso and Rebel Oro, through a premium purchase. But if the new skins aren't really your style, you can anticipate the return of beloved bundles like Durr Burger, Beachy Boardwalk, and Mage's Favorites.

Even though the update has yet to come out, March is pretty jam-packed with goodies, and I can't wait to see what other new adventures arrive in the coming months.

All Boss locations in Fortnite Chapter 6, Season 2 and how to defeat them https://www.destructoid.com/all-boss-locations-in-fortnite-and-how-to-defeat-them/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=all-boss-locations-in-fortnite-and-how-to-defeat-them https://www.destructoid.com/all-boss-locations-in-fortnite-and-how-to-defeat-them/#respond Wed, 05 Mar 2025 19:10:28 +0000 https://www.destructoid.com/?p=570722 Fortnite boss locations Chapter 5 Season 4

Defeating bosses in Fortnite has multiple benefits, from giving you legendary and mythic-grade items to completing event quests. Regardless of your goal, knowing about every available boss and how to beat them before other players take the kills will help you get the edge you need to win your matches.

All Boss locations in Fortnite Chapter 6, Season 2

Fortnite Chapter 5, Season 4 has two bosses you can find in the following locations:

  • Shogun X: Loot Island
  • Fletcher Kane: Bank vaults and armored patrol vehicles

During every Fortnite season, the spawn locations and patterns of bosses vary. Some have one set location, while others have a few pre-determined locations that change each round. Chapter 6, Season 2 is an example of this, with Shogun X appearing on Loot Island and Fletcher Kane having several potential spawn spots. Since both have

How to defeat every boss in Fortnite Chapter 6, Season 2

The main goal of fighting each Fortnite boss is to protect yourself against their onslaught of attacks while either avoiding other players or using them to weaken the boss before sweeping in for the final blow. You can do this in many ways, but it depends on how many people are around, including NPCs. Generally speaking, you'll want strong weapons and full shields before entering the fight.

How you tackle Shogun X compared to Fletcher Kane will also vastly differ. While one is a one-on-one that is dependent on long-range damage and dodging, the other tests how well you can hold your own against multiple enemies.

Shogun X

Shogun X is a boss you can encounter late in your Fortnite matches. He appears on Loot Island after the round's fourth storm passes. Loot Island spawns randomly during each map, only accessible using launch pads or Wind Sprites that constantly release air columns. Jumping into these propels you into the air, letting you access the island and face Shogun X.

Shogun X has no minions on the island that will distract or damage you. Instead, it's a one-on-one battle against him on the island, with him having multiple attacks that can quickly catch you off guard. His three main attacks are a large slash with his katana, summoning three fire oni skulls toward your character, and a delayed fire-summoning attack that creates explosions on the ground. They're easy to dodge, but running out of stamina can be a death sentence here.

How you handle Shogun X will depend on your playstyle, but ranged is generally a better option. Shogun X constantly teleports to different areas around Loot Island to initiate his attacks, making it very difficult to chase him using melee options. Instead, gunning him down from a safe spot is the way to go, as all you need to do is aim where he teleports and dodge his attacks.

Once you defeat Shogun X, you'll receive a Mythic-grade Enhanced Holo Twister Assault Rifle, a Chug Jug, and the Super Shield Medallion. The Super Shield Medallion spawns a shield bubble around you when you use healing items, making it a handy defensive tool.

Fletcher Kane

Next on the list is Fletcher Kane, a crime boss who patrols his bank vaults and armored vehicles. Unlike Shogun X, Fletcher Kane has several potential spawn locations around the map, which appear as a wolf icon next to a bank vault, train, or car icon.

Fletcher Kane is an aggressive boss, charging at you with claw attacks and gunning you down from a distance. However, he has far less health than Shogun X, making him much easier to defeat as long as his guards and other players don't overrun the area.

Defeating Fletcher Kane will reward you with his Baron's Double Down Pistol and Unstoppable Medallion, giving you increased sprint speed and a knockback perk when you run into enemies. The extra movement speed is nice, and the gun is particularly helpful during weekly or piston-specific event quests.

How to find Legendary Items in Fortnite https://www.destructoid.com/how-to-find-legendary-items-in-fortnite/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=how-to-find-legendary-items-in-fortnite https://www.destructoid.com/how-to-find-legendary-items-in-fortnite/#respond Wed, 05 Mar 2025 17:39:53 +0000 https://www.destructoid.com/?p=1024241 A Legendary weapon in Fortnite.

No matter if you are a new player or a Victory Crown collector looking to continue a win streak, very few things in Fortnite will be as game-changing as getting your hands on a Legendary item early on. But where exactly can you find them?

Here's how to find (and a few guaranteed ways to get) Legendary items in Fortnite.

How to find and get Legendary Items in Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 2

Legendary Items in a chest in Fortnite

You can get Legendary items in Fortnite by killing players carrying them and opening chests all over the Island. If you are not among the RNG's favorites, you can also get Legendary weapons by exchanging Dill Bits at any Black Market. The Chapter 6 Season 2 map features a total of three markets, with each offering the following selection of Legendaries. Each of the below will cost one Dill Bit.

  • Magic Mosses Black Market: Striker Burst Rifle / Veiled Precision SMG
  • Shiny Shafts/Crime City Black Market: Sticky Grenade Launcher / Sentinel Pump Shotgun
  • Southeast Black Market: Falcon Eye Sniper / Striker Burst Rifle

You can check out the locations of all the markets in the image below, as well as how to get the Dill Bits needed to buy the weapons by heading further down.

As all of the markets will be located underground, it's also not uncommon to see players camping in their vicinity to get easy bits (and hopefully some Mythics). So get ready before going in. If on a squad, it will also not hurt to have a few of your teammates scout the area beforehand and keep watch as you make the purchases.

Unless you eliminate a player carrying it or loot the item amidst a firefight, the only way to get Dill Bits in Fortnite is by opening vaults and then grabbing it from their display cases. Each vault will house one bit and can only be opened by using Thermite. You can check out the locations of all of them below:

Keep in mind that if you choose to go for the Crime City vault, Fletcher Kane will spawn together with the usual guards looking to get in your way. To make quick work of the boss and get both his Mythic Baron’s Double Down Pistol and the Unstoppable Medallion, take a look at our How to defeat Fletcher Kane in Fortnite Chapter 6, Season 2 guide.

How to find and collect mineral samples using the Plasma Burst Laser in Fortnite https://www.destructoid.com/how-to-find-and-collect-mineral-samples-using-the-plasma-burst-laser-in-fortnite/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=how-to-find-and-collect-mineral-samples-using-the-plasma-burst-laser-in-fortnite https://www.destructoid.com/how-to-find-and-collect-mineral-samples-using-the-plasma-burst-laser-in-fortnite/#respond Tue, 04 Mar 2025 22:58:22 +0000 https://www.destructoid.com/?p=1024246 Fortnite plasma burst laser featured image

Partway through Joss' Wanted quests in Fortnite Chapter 6, Season 2, you'll encounter a task asking you to collect mineral samples using a Plasma Burst Laser. Every part of this objective is tricky, as you must survive long enough to find a laser and determine what structures drop these samples.

How to get a Plasma Burst Laser in Fortnite

First up is finding Fortnite's Plasma Burst Laser weapon, which you can pick up from the following sources:

  • Chest loot
  • Floor loot
  • Player elimination drops
  • Black Market (Seaport City, Magic Mosses)

While chest and floor loot are often go-to solutions for finding various weapon types, Chapter 6, Season 2 introduces Black Markets you can visit to purchase certain gear for gold bars and Dill Bits. A Plasma Burst Laser from the Seaport City and Magic Mosses Black Markets cost 600 gold bars, making them slightly pricey but worthwhile for this quest.

Alternatively, you can obtain Plasma Burst Lasers from chest rewards, floor loot, and player elimination drops, much like you would a regular weapon. However, this is entirely luck-based, and there's a chance you'll go several rounds without finding one unless you explore most of the map or get multiple eliminations. Even then, you often won't spot any until later in the match when you and your other players access rare chests.

How to find Mineral Samples in Fortnite

Once you have a Plasma Burst Laser from a Black Market or regular loot sources, target any stone structure to get a mineral sample. I just went for a building's wall, but you may have to experiment a bit if certain locations don't work. With the sample on hand, you'll be ready to return to the Magic Mosses Black Market and complete Joss' Wanted quest series.

Fortnite: All Wanted Joss quests and how to complete them https://www.destructoid.com/fortnite-all-wanted-joss-quests-and-how-to-complete-them/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=fortnite-all-wanted-joss-quests-and-how-to-complete-them https://www.destructoid.com/fortnite-all-wanted-joss-quests-and-how-to-complete-them/#respond Tue, 04 Mar 2025 19:14:30 +0000 https://www.destructoid.com/?p=1024106 Fortnite Joss Wanted quest

Now that we've met Skillet and completed his Wanted quests in Fortnite, it's time to talk to Joss. She's all about exploring the supposed magic on the island and tasks you with figuring out what's causing Chapter 6's demonic invasion using science. Oh, and Big Dill is hosting a party.

Fortnite Wanted: Joss quest walkthrough

Fortnite's Wanted: Joss Quest is a six-part series requiring you to work alongside Joss, the Magic Mosses' Black Market merchant. She doesn't believe any of what's happened was caused by magic and, instead, thinks there's a logical scientific explanation. Your goal is to help her get closer to the truth using chemistry.

Stage One

Before you officially meet Joss, you'll first need to damage opponents in either Crime City or Lonewolf Lair. The easiest way to do this is to damage guards protecting the two landmarks' bank vaults until you complete the objective. Otherwise, you can target other players you encounter through your Fortnite match.

Stage Two

Once you inflict 200 damage on any players or NPCs in your Fortnite matches, your next goal is to visit Joss in Magic Mosses' Black Market. In Magic Mosses, you'll find a small cabin where the Black Market map icon is, with a staircase leading down to the shop's area. Inside this shop is Joss, who'll brief you on the current situation and recommends talking to Big Dill in Crime City.

Stage Three

With Joss' briefing out of the way, it's time to visit Crime City and talk to Big Dill. You'll find him on a building's rooftop, dancing on a disco floor surrounded by music speakers. This objective aligns with Big Dill's Found quests, so watch out for those, too.

There's a chance you'll encounter a bug while completing this stage of Joss' Wanted quests. If you attempt to talk to Big Dill, you may not find any briefing dialogue that progresses the story. Much like Skillet's Wanted quest, you'll need to join a Ranked match to get this to work.

Once you approach Big Dill in a Ranked match, he'll brief you on his party and ask for help in setting it up. Below are three ways to set up the party:

  • Open box of drinks
  • Pick up records
  • Jam next to Big Dill

Since you have to complete a combination of these four tasks, you'll have to interact with multiple boxes of drinks or records on the ground. You'll mostly find them on the building floors under Big Dill. Once you find everything and jam out on the dance floor, talk to Big Dill to complete both his Found quest and this portion of Joss' Wanted mission.

Stage Four

After arranging the best party Fortnite has ever seen alongside Big Dill, it's time to find a collateral damage assault rifle and eliminate some opponents. You have four options for finding one:

  • Chest loot
  • Floor loot
  • Player elimination drops
  • Black Market (Crime City, Magic Mosses)

Fortunately, if you're still in Crime City, you can find a nearby Black Market selling an epic-grade rifle for 600 Gold. Alternatively, if you have some Dill Bits on hand, you can head to Magic Mosses' Black Market and buy legendary-grade or Mythic-grade versions.

Screenshot by Destructoid

If you don't want to spend Dill Bits or gold, you can also loot chests, watch for floor loot, or eliminate players until you pick up the AR. It isn't necessarily a rare drop, but you might only end up with a weaker common or uncommon version instead.

Once you have your collateral damage assault rifle, it's time to find players and NPCs to eliminate. An easy way to finish this is by visiting any bank vault and defeating its guards, but you can also target players to work toward getting a Victory Royale. It's ultimately up to you: the important part is eliminating three people for the quest.

Stage Five

Next up is collecting mineral samples using a Plasma Burst Laser. Like the AR, you can get a laser from Black Markets, chest loot, and floor loot. You can also get lucky and get one by eliminating other players, particularly ones near bank vaults who use them to target the door's weak points.

Once you have a plasma burst laser, use it on any stone structure — a wall, most likely — until you get a shining mineral sample. It'll appear with a bright white glow around it, differentiating it from other similar drops. Pick it up before returning to Joss for your final objective.

Stage Six

Your last goal is to take the mineral samples from the previous task and analyse them at Joss' chemistry table. Fortunately, this is the most straightforward task of the six, as it only requires you to revisit Joss and use the chemistry set behind her. Once you interact with it, you'll complete the final task of Fortnite's Wanted: Joss quest series, which will reward you with XP and prepare you for Midas' Wanted missions.

Fortnite's Weekly Quests often push you into the heart of battle. Chapter 6 is no different, with Dill Bill and the Lawless crew taking over Battle Royale. Learn how to complete the objective of finding and searching a Dill Bit Display Case in Fortnite.

All Dill Bit Display Case locations in Fortnite

You can find Dill Bit Display Cases inside vaults in the following points of interest:

  • Crime City
  • Seaport City
  • Lonewolf Lair
  • Masked Meadows

Each destination presents a vault icon, helping you narrow down the Display Case's location. Unfortunately, everyone and their mother travel to these areas, so come well-prepared. If you see a red dot on one of the map's vault icons, I recommend trying for another one, as someone is already there. The only way I got lucky with this quest is by going to a vault where the Storm Circle is closing in. It's a bit risky, but it did end up working for me.

You'll usually find a bank building around these areas, where you can locate the vault inside. This point of interest differs from secret vaults, which are much more hidden.

How to open a vault for Dill Bit Display Case in Fortnite

Obtain a Thermite to open the vault for Fortnite's Dill Bit Display Case. It's best to loot bags on the ground to get them for free, or else you will have to spend money at Black Market. Just look around for these bags (they are pretty much everywhere), and you should get a Thermite in no time.

Finding and using Thermite in Fortnite

Attach the Thermite to the vault to begin a limited-time battle with NPCs. You'll need to eliminate enemies until the bar fills up. It takes a minute or two to load up, so try to survive as long as possible.

Once the bar fills up, you can enter the vault and interact with the Dill Bit Display Case. In return, you'll receive a notification of completing the Fortnite Chapter 6, Season 2 Weekly Quest.

How to use Dill Bit in Fortnite

Head to a nearby Black Market, marked by its distinct map icon, to use your Dill Bit. Exchange it to purchase exclusive Fortnite content, including a Falcon Eye Sniper and Vulture Boon.

Each reward usually costs one Dill Bit, meaning you'll have to loot more vaults to purchase more goods. However, remember that other players can interact with the Black Market, and you may have to move over to another one if all resources are exhausted.

If you see a red dot on one of the map's vault icons, I recommend trying for another one, as someone is already there. The only way I got lucky with this quest is by going to a vault where the Storm Circle is closing in. It's a bit risky, but it did end up working for me.

You'll usually find a bank building around these areas, where you can locate the vault inside. This point of interest differs from secret vaults, which are much more hidden.

How to open a vault for Dill Bit Display Case in Fortnite

Obtain a Thermite to open the vault for Fortnite's Dill Bit Display Case. It's best to loot bags on the ground to get them for free, or else you will have to spend money at Black Market. Just look around for these bags (they are pretty much everywhere), and you should get a Thermite in no time.

Attach the Thermite to the vault to begin a limited-time battle with NPCs. You'll need to eliminate enemies until the bar fills up. It takes a minute or two to load up, so try to survive as long as possible.

Once the bar fills up, you can enter the vault and interact with the Dill Bit Display Case. In return, you'll receive a notification of completing the Fortnite Chapter 6, Season 2 Weekly Quest.

How to use Dill Bit in Fortnite

Head to a nearby Black Market, marked by its distinct map icon, to use your Dill Bit. Exchange it to purchase exclusive Fortnite content, including a Falcon Eye Sniper and Vulture Boon.

Each reward usually costs one Dill Bit, meaning you'll have to loot more vaults to purchase more goods. However, remember that other players can interact with the Black Market, and you may have to move over to another one if all resources are exhausted.

How to Find Big Dill and get the party started in Fortnite https://www.destructoid.com/how-to-find-big-dill-and-get-the-party-started-in-fortnite/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=how-to-find-big-dill-and-get-the-party-started-in-fortnite https://www.destructoid.com/how-to-find-big-dill-and-get-the-party-started-in-fortnite/#respond Tue, 04 Mar 2025 16:49:04 +0000 https://www.destructoid.com/?p=1024194 Fortnite Big Dill location featured image

In Fortnite, if you want to have a good time and party until there's no tomorrow, Big Dill is your guy. The game also knows this, giving you two separate quests and asking you to help him with his party by collecting various items around Crime City.

Big Dill location in Fortnite Chapter 6, Season 2

Big Dill is an NPC within Crime City. You'll find him atop a building with a disco floor, music speakers, and cardboard cutouts of various Fortnite characters. Since it's relatively small, you can easily mantle up a few floors to reach it or climb the stairs and parkour up if that's easier.

Big Dill is a pickle, so you'll, unsurprisingly, find a walking pickle NPC once you reach this building. You can talk to him about his weapon of choice or him being an inspiration, but our goal is to hear him talk about his party. He'll tell you the four things he needs, but our focus is on dancing and drinks. This officially marks the beginning of Big Dill's Found quest.

Why can't I complete the 'Somebody's planning a party in Crime City' quest?

As you approach Big Dill and talk to him, there's a chance you won't find his Found quest dialogue option. Instead, you'll find his mini-shop and miscellaneous chat options with no way to advance the quest. This is a known bug with both Big Dill's Found mission and the previous Wanted: Skillet quest.

If you encounter this bug and are unsure how to fix it, you can fix it using the tips below:

  • Finish Joss’ Wanted quest objectives until you find "Help Big Dill with the party."
  • Join a Ranked Fortnite match.
  • Leave and rejoin lobbies until the option appears.

Before you can finish this quest, you must complete the first two parts of Joss' Wanted mission. You can complete these by damaging enemies in Crime City and Lonewolf Lair before heading to Magic Mosses and talking to Joss herself. She'll ask you to help Big Dill with his party, aligning both quests and letting you knock out two birds with one stone.

If you still encounter this bug after completing her quest, join a Ranked Fortnite match and try talking to him again. This solution worked for me, but in rare cases, you may still have this issue. If you do, leave and rejoin a few lobbies until you find one that works.

How to help Big Dill with the party

Now that you've solved Big Dill's quest bug, it's time to help him with his party. The next objective simply says to help Big Dill get the party started, with four actions required to do so. Our goal is to find drink bottles and records on the ground.

First up are the boxes of bottles, which spawn around Big Dill's building. The first box is near Big Dill along the rooftop's ledge, while the second is on the floor below behind a bar counter.

You can also find two records for this quest within this building. The first is on the balcony near the second drink box, while the other is on the building's bottom floor in the bathroom.

If you can only find two or three items and don't want to waste time finding the rest, you can also jam out on the rooftop near Big Dill to satisfy one of the four actions. You can do this by opening your emote menu using B on the keyboard, Down Arrow on consoles, or the Emote button on mobile before scrolling to Jam Tracks. Pick any Jam Track to play an instrument, knocking out the objective and letting you complete Big Dill's Found quest.

It's time to party hard in Fortnite with Big Dill in Crime City. He lives on the dance floor and needs your help planning a party. Thankfully, he already did most of the setup, so your main job is to find some drinks and get some music records playing.

Fortnite Big Dill Found quest walkthrough

Fortnite Big Dill Found quest is a two-part mission where you'll locate Big Dill and start a party with him. However, starting it requires progressing through Wanted: Joss until you reach the "Help Big Dill with the party" stage. You may also encounter a bug during this mission, which you can fix by joining a Ranked Fortnite match.

How to complete "Somebody's planning a party in Crime City"

Your goal with this first task is to find Big Dill, a pickle NPC that roams on top of a rooftop in Crime City. As you explore Crime City, look for a large building with a dance floor, music speakers blasting, and colorful lights aimed at the sky. Here, you'll find Big Dill, who'll tell you about his planned party.

Fortnite Big DIll dialogue
Screenshot by Destructoid

However, you may find a bug while completing this mission, much like the previous Wanted Skillet quest. Usually, if you talk to him about the quest, he'll brief you on the party and what he needs to start it. If you don't find this dialogue, you can use the solutions below to fix it:

  1. Complete Joss' Wanted quests until they line up with Big Dill's Found quests.
  2. Join a Ranked Fortnite match.
  3. Leave and rejoin lobbies until the option appears.

Generally speaking, you'll need to complete Joss' Wanted quests and join a Ranked match to finish this part of Big Dill's mission. If these don't work, leave and rejoin a couple of matches until it clicks. There's no word on whether Epic Games is aware of the bug or if they'll fix it, but until they do, these options are our only solutions.

Helping Big Dill with the party

After getting the "Somebody's planning a party in Crime City" objective to work and talking to Big Dill, it's time to help him set up the party. You can do this by completing the following tasks:

  • Open box of drinks
  • Pick up records
  • Jam next to Big Dill

As you explore the building under Big Dill, you'll find drink boxes and records on the ground with which to interact. You'll need to find four total items for the quest, most of which are within this building. In particular, you can spot a drink box next to Big Dill's dance floor and below him, with a record on the balcony near the drink box.

If you only find three items during the match, you can jam next to Big Dill by using your Emote Wheel, scrolling to Jam Loops, and picking any song you have unlocked. Doing this lets you play an instrument, knocking out the fourth and final requirement. After completing this objective, talk to Big Dill to officially complete his Found quest, progressing you through Joss' Wanted mission along the way.

How to jam for five seconds at a Named Location in Fortnite https://www.destructoid.com/how-to-jam-for-five-seconds-at-a-named-location-in-fortnite/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=how-to-jam-for-five-seconds-at-a-named-location-in-fortnite https://www.destructoid.com/how-to-jam-for-five-seconds-at-a-named-location-in-fortnite/#respond Fri, 28 Feb 2025 19:14:36 +0000 https://www.destructoid.com/?p=1021965 Fortnite jamming out with drums

Part of Fortnite's fun is hopping into any match and jamming out using your favorite instruments. If you like playing the drums, there are jam tracks that'll match the vibe. If you're a guitarist, there are options there, too. Let's find out how to jam at a Named Location.

How to jam at a Named Location in Fortnite

Jamming out at a named location requires visiting any spot on your Fortnite map that has a name before opening your emote wheel and scrolling through your options until you find your jam loops. Pick any you have unlocked and choose an instrument to play your chosen song.

Jam objectives in Fortnite vary depending on the week, season, and event. For example, during Fortnite's Cowboy Bebop collaborative event, you have to jam out for five seconds at any named location. It doesn't matter if you go to Seaport City, Flooded Frogs, or Outlaw Oasis, as long as it's a named POI.

However, this isn't always the case, especially if the task asks you to visit a particular spot. Previous weekly quests have asked you to visit specific locations, as we saw during Fortnite Chapter 5, Season 2's weekly missions. During this, you had to jam out at Restored Reels and Slumberyard's dance floor, two locations that are no longer available. Even though these spots aren't in the game anymore, the ones that do currently exist may appear as a jam task in the future.

How to emote in Fortnite

You can open your emote menu and play jam tracks by pressing B on the keyboard, Down Arrow on consoles, or the Emote button on mobile. From here, you can cycle through the menus until you reach Jam Tracks, giving you a list of every track you've unlocked so far. The songs you use are entirely up to you unless your current quest asks for a specific one.

How to unlock more Jam Tracks in Fortnite

The easiest way to unlock more jam tracks in Fortnite is to purchase the game's Music Pass, Battle Pass, or the Item Shop's Music Moments options. These all require V-Bucks or real money to obtain, but at least you'll have a bunch to use during your matches.

Alternatively, you can get free jam tracks by progressing in limited-time events and collecting their rewards. Although not every event has jam tracks as rewards, you'll occasionally spot them as options alongside loading screen images, pickaxes, gliders, and other items.

How to help Valentina rob Fletcher Kane’s personal safe in Fortnite https://www.destructoid.com/how-to-help-valentina-rob-fletcher-kanes-personal-safe-in-fortnite/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=how-to-help-valentina-rob-fletcher-kanes-personal-safe-in-fortnite https://www.destructoid.com/how-to-help-valentina-rob-fletcher-kanes-personal-safe-in-fortnite/#respond Tue, 25 Feb 2025 16:21:28 +0000 https://www.destructoid.com/?p=1019914 Fortnite Valentina NPC

During Fortnite Chapter 6, Season 2's Wanted: Skillet quests, you'll perform a bank heist on his behalf before meeting up with Valentina in Outlaw Oasis. However, beyond the mission itself being challenging to complete, there's a chance you'll encounter a bug during it.

How to help Valentina rob Fletcher Kane's personal safe in Fortnite

After arriving in Outlaw Oasis and sabotaging payphones, your next goal is to talk to Valentina at the east side of the POI. You'll usually see her skipping rope outside, but if there's another player nearby, she may just stand there on alert until you arrive. Talking to her and hearing the brief about Fletcher Kane's personal safe will progress the quest, with her leading you directly to the safe inside his secret vault room.

Once you and Valentina arrive at Fletcher Kane's safe, you'll have to fight off six incoming guards before completing the quest. After a few seconds, they'll start running into the room, forcing you to defend Valentina as she opens the safe. Players will also often visit this area for quick and easy eliminations, so watch your surroundings as you battle these enemies.

After eliminating six of Fletcher Kane's security guards, Valentina will open the safe, revealing some questionable items alongside gold bars. Following some brief interaction with her, you'll officially complete the objective, bringing you one step closer to completing Skillet's Wanted quests or Fortnite Chapter 6, Season 2's Found quests.

How to fix 'help Valentina rob Fletcher Kane's personal safe' bug in Fortnite

In most cases, proceeding through Skillet's Wanted quests or Found quests will naturally lead to you visiting Valentina and hearing her briefing about Fletcher Kane's safe. However, depending on which mission you do first and when you play, you might encounter a bug that prevents you from progressing further. There are several ways to fix this bug:

  • Enter Ranked Mode
  • Switch to another quest and advance through it first
  • Play another game mode (Zero Build to Build mode, or vice versa)
  • Restart Fortnite

You'll know you've fixed the bug when you see a "Get Briefed" option while talking to Valentina. Otherwise, you may have to wait for Epic Games to release a hotfix or provide further details on how to work around this. For the most part, swapping to Ranked mode does the trick, but you may have to restart Fortnite a few times before it works.

You may also experience this bug while completing Fortnite's Found quests. During the 'Baron is reportedly hoarding gold in his office' objective, an identical issue that prevents you from progressing can occur. Fortunately, the tips above also apply here, giving you a way to solve this bug, too.

During Fortnite's Chapter 6, Season 2's Found quests, your first objective states, "The Baron is reportedly hoarding gold in his office," with no further instructions. Although your quest marker points to Valentina, an NPC in Outlaw Oasis, you may encounter a bug preventing you from progressing.

You'll know you're encountering the bug when you first speak to Valentina. Rather than advancing the quest, she'll compare bank vault heists and other crimes to dancing. Here's how to fix Fortnite's Chapter 6, Season 2's Found quest bugs so you can investigate the Baron's gold hoarding.

How to fix Fortnite Chapter 6, Season 2 Found quest bugs

Normally, you'd complete this Found quest by heading to Outlaw Oasis, speaking to Valentina, and hearing her brief about the current mission. She'll then run off toward Fletcher Kane's secret vault room and break open his personal safe. However, if this doesn't happen, and you get stuck, you can fix the bug by entering Ranked Mode instead of Fortnite's regular Battle Royale modes.

Fortnite Valentina durign Wanted Skillet quest
Screenshot by Destructoid

Although the exact reason for this bug is unknown, one possible reason is the Found quest and Fortnite's Wanted: Skillet mission having the same objective. If you complete Skillet's Wanted mission first and advance far enough to break open Fletcher Kane's safe, the game has to recognize both objectives, which can cause some problems. This mostly happens in unranked matches for unknown reasons.

While there's a good chance Epic Games will patch this bug in the future, we have to work around it in the meantime. The most consistent method for fixing it is entering a Ranked match and playing through the quest as usual. In most cases, this resolves the problem without much concern.

However, if this doesn't resolve the issue and you're still encountering the bug, you can try the following methods to fix it:

  • Swap to another quest and complete its tasks first
  • Switch to another game mode (Zero Build to Build mode or vice versa)
  • Restart Fortnite

In most cases, playing Ranked Fortnite will work, allowing you to proceed through the quest. However, you can also advance through other quests, such as Skillet's Wanted series, or switch to another game mode like regular Build Mode or Zero Build. In rare cases, restarting Fortnite may be all you need. Otherwise, you may have to wait for Epic Games to patch the bug and either change the quests or allow both missions to progress simultaneously.

She'll then run off toward Fletcher Kane's secret vault room and break open his personal safe. However, if this doesn't happen, and you get stuck, you can fix the bug by entering Ranked Mode instead of Fortnite's regular Battle Royale modes.

Although the exact reason for this bug is unknown, one possible reason is the Found quest and Fortnite's Wanted: Skillet mission having the same objective. If you complete Skillet's Wanted mission first and advance far enough to break open Fletcher Kane's safe, the game has to recognize both objectives, which can cause some problems. This mostly happens in unranked matches for unknown reasons.

While there's a good chance Epic Games will patch this bug in the future, we have to work around it in the meantime. The most consistent method for fixing it is entering a Ranked match and playing through the quest as usual. In most cases, this resolves the problem without much concern.

However, if this doesn't resolve the issue and you're still encountering the bug, you can try the following methods to fix it:

  • Swap to another quest and complete its tasks first
  • Switch to another game mode (Zero Build to Build mode or vice versa)
  • Restart Fortnite

In most cases, playing Ranked Fortnite will work, allowing you to proceed through the quest. However, you can also advance through other quests, such as Skillet's Wanted series, or switch to another game mode like regular Build Mode or Zero Build. In rare cases, restarting Fortnite may be all you need. Otherwise, you may have to wait for Epic Games to patch the bug and either change the quests or allow both missions to progress simultaneously.
