In Fortnite: Battle Royale, the challenges for week 8 in Season 5 are set. We will show you how to solve them.
The new challenges of Fortnite are now active in the game. You have until the end of Season 5 to complete these tasks for the Battle and be rewarded with experience points and stars.
Free and paid: As known from the past weeks, 3 of these tasks are available for all players free of charge. We will show you those in the first table. For the four challenges in the second table, you need the paid Battle Pass. However, you can still buy it with confidence; your previous progress will be recorded there.
All Challenges from Week 8 in Season 5 of Fortnite
Paid:
- Deal damage to opponents with pickaxes – 250 damage – 5 stars, 500 XP
- Use a rift at various rift spawn points – 10 – 5 stars, 500 XP
- Search between three oversized chairs (hard) – 1 – 10 stars, 1,000 XP
- Phase 1: Eliminate opponents at Greasy Grove – 1 – 3 stars, 300 XP
Challenge 1: Place traps
Runs in the background: Placing traps should not pose a great challenge. Whenever you find a trap, place it in a good spot, ideally on the ceiling behind a closed door. This way, you should complete this challenge quickly. Maybe you will get lucky and catch something with the traps as well.
Challenge 2: Search chests at Wailing Woods
Multiple matches: You can spread the search for the 7 chests over multiple matches. There will probably be more activity in Wailing Woods than usual, so watch out for enemies and ideally complete the task in the 50vs50 mode when Wailing Woods is on your side of the battlefield.
Challenge 3: Eliminate opponents with the shotgun (hard)
Close combat: To use shotguns effectively, you must engage in close combat. At short range, the spread of the bullets does not miss the enemy but hits completely and deals devastating damage. Collect 4 kills with it, and the reward is yours.
Challenge 4: Deal damage to opponents with pickaxes
2 common methods: You can choose whether to take the chaotic or the boring route. The chaotic method would be to land with as many opponents as possible in a popular area at the very start of a match and smash their heads with pickaxes. The less exciting way is to finish off downed opponents in team modes with the pickaxe. You need to deal 250 damage, which is about 2.5 dead enemies on average.
Challenge 5: Use a rift at various rift spawn points
Using rifts: The task is clear; you need to use the rifts in Fortnite at different spawns. But where are they located? We have created a guide that shows you the rift spawns.
Challenge 6: Search between three oversized chairs
Treasure hunt: In this task, you participate in the weekly treasure hunt. The challenge is easy to accomplish. Just follow our guide to the location where the star is located. Once you collect it, the task is completed. You can see our guide to it here:
Challenge 7: Phase 1: Eliminate opponents at Greasy Grove
Multiple stages: This task is divided into multiple stages. You start at Greasy Grove, where you need to eliminate an opponent. Then you move on to the next location, where you must take out another opponent. You repeat this until the challenge is completed.
