Deal damage to opponents with pickaxes
How to complete the task: Hitting opponents with the pickaxe can be fun but also quite challenging.
The best strategy is to land right at the start of the round in popular spots where many opponents land. This way, you can quickly engage in pickaxe fights because no one has weapons yet.
Alternatively, play in group modes and finish off opponents who are already down on the ground with the pickaxe. You need to deal a total of 100 damage.
Visit Junk Junction and The Block during a match
How to complete the task: You need to visit 2 locations during a match. You do not necessarily have to eliminate anyone or find anything. Simply visit the locations and the task will be counted for you.
- Phase 1 Junk Junction and The Block
- Phase 2 Pleasant Park and Dusty Divot
- Phase 3 Happy Hamlet and Snobby Shores
Visit 3 pirate camps during a match
How to complete the task: The pirate camps have been a fixed part of the Fortnite map since season 8. In our guide, we will show you where to find them. There we present the quickest route to the camps.
Deal 500 damage to players from above
How to complete the task: With this task, Fortnite seems to want to strengthen the builders. It is easier to shoot down at an opponent if you build stairs or similar and position yourself on them.
Search chests at Loot Lake or Snobby Shores
How to complete the task: Similar to eliminations, opening chests is also regularly part of the weekly tasks. Simply travel to the named locations and open 7 chests there.
The best time to do this is at the beginning of a match. Then the chances are higher that the chests have not been opened yet.

Deal damage to opponents while hanging on the zip line
How to complete the task: Grab a weapon and then find zip lines. Unless there is an opponent hanging on the zip line directly in front of you, we recommend avoiding shotguns. Assault rifles are suitable for this task, for example. You can find zip lines in Fortnite here
In phase 2, you need to deal damage to opponents who are currently hanging on a zip line. So basically the opposite of phase 1. Position yourself near zip lines and wait for opponents to use them. Then just shoot at them.
Eliminate opponents at 5 different named locations
How to complete the task: You are already familiar with this typical task from previous weeks. Travel to named locations and take out opponents there.
These are places like:
- Happy Hamlet
- Loot Lake
- Paradise Palms
- Lucky Landing
- Retail Row
- Lonely Lodge
- Just all places that have a name on the map
