With Season 4 in Fortnite: Battle Royale, there are again a variety of cosmetic items to collect in the Battle Pass, including the Omega skin. With our guide, you can easily reach Level 100 – without stress and frustration! This way, even beginners and those without much time can make the most of the Battle Pass.
The Battle Royale shooter Fortnite offers players the chance to purchase a Battle Pass in each season, allowing you to unlock cosmetic items such as skins, emotes, and the new sprays.
At the maximum level of 100 awaits the coveted Omega skin, which not only looks cool but can also be further upgraded. However, to reach Level 100, you need a bit of endurance – Epic estimates it takes about 100 to 150 hours of gameplay to complete the Battle Pass.
What does it cost? To unlock the Battle Pass, you need 950 V-Bucks, which is the premium currency in Fortnite. This is approximately 10 Euros. However, you can also earn V-Bucks in the PvE of Fortnite. The investment is worth it. You will receive more V-Bucks back than you spent on the Battle Pass,
How long do I have to reach Level 100 in the Battle Pass? Based on the experiences of previous seasons, Season 4 will end on July 9, 2018. With the start date of May 1, 2018, you have exactly 69 days to get the Battle Pass to Level 100.
To avoid getting frantic in the last two weeks, we give you tips to reach Level 100 in a relaxed manner – without stress and frustration!
These rewards await you in the Battle Pass of Season 4!
Epic does not hold back as in previous seasons and has packed the Battle Pass full of various items, experience bonuses, and even V-Bucks. You can specifically look forward to the following rewards:
- 1,300 V-Bucks
- 20 Sprays
- Five Outfits
- Five Glider Effects
- Five Emotes
- Four Pickaxes
- Three Gliders
- Two Backpacks
In addition, you can increase your own experience gains by 110% and for friends in the same lobby by 50%. To enjoy all the goodies, you need to level up in the Battle Pass, for which you have various tools at your disposal!
Note: The following numbers are based on the assumption that you have purchased your Battle Pass at Level 1. Those who qualified for bonus levels in Season 3 or bought additional levels will, of course, have to invest less time to reach Level 100.
With these activities, you will increase your level in the Battle Pass!
Epic provides you with a range of tools to earn levels in the Battle Pass. The central task is to complete challenges that reward you with Battle Stars. Once you have collected 10 of these stars, you will receive a level up in the Battle Pass, along with new rewards. With 100 levels, you need to collect 1,000 of these Battle Stars.
Depending on the difficulty, some challenges will reward you with more or fewer Battle Stars. Specifically, you can level up in the Battle Pass with the following activities:
- Level ups in the seasonal level
- Standard challenges (unlocked for all)
- Weekly challenges
- Daily challenges
- Hidden Battle Stars in Blockbuster loading screens
How many Battle Stars do the individual activities yield? Each activity yields a similar amount of Battle Stars throughout the duration of Season 4. Maximal you can earn the following amount of Battle Stars in activities:
- Level ups in the seasonal level – 308 Battle Stars
- Standard challenges – 50 Battle Stars
- Weekly challenges – 10 weeks x 50 Battle Stars total 500
- Daily challenges – 69 days brings 5 stars each – makes a total of 345 Battle Stars
- Hidden Battle Stars in Blockbuster loading screens – 100 stars
If all challenges are completed throughout the course of Season 4, you can earn a maximum of 1,303 Battle Stars – significantly more than the 1,000 required for Level 100.
One thing is clear from the numbers: Those who ignore the weekly challenges will never reach Level 100 in the Battle Pass. You need to find a good mix to steadily level up during the season.
Most of you will likely ignore the seasonal level due to the various commitments in your daily life. You automatically level up just by playing. However, for the maximum seasonal level of 100, you will need to put in some serious time. This is only achievable for players who spend several hours a day playing Fortnite.
Focus on these challenges!
By completing all challenges, you will earn more Battle Stars overall than needed for the maximum level of 100. Of course, you can theoretically still do everything – but let’s be honest, who has the time for that?
Therefore, do not focus on getting the seasonal level to 100. Instead, complete as many daily challenges as possible and always finish all weekly tasks!
The Standard Challenges of Season 4
The standard challenges can be completed by all players – they are not tied to the purchase of the Battle Pass. You do not have to specifically work towards completing the standard challenges; you will accomplish them automatically throughout the season.
Make sure to check your open activities from time to time so you know what still needs to be done. Otherwise, you can feel free to ignore the standard tasks.
The Weekly Challenges of Season 4
The weekly challenges grant you a total of 500 Battle Stars – this equals 50 levels in the Battle Pass. Therefore, you should complete the weekly challenges every week.
The weekly challenges always follow the same pattern:
- Eliminate opponents with a specific weapon/damage type
- Eliminate opponents at a specific location
- Open chests at a specific location
- Various special missions
- Go on a treasure hunt
Help, I don’t have time! Do uncompleted challenges disappear? If there are weeks where you have little time, that’s no problem. You can complete the weekly challenges throughout the entire duration of the season.
In addition to the usual challenges, you also need to complete specific things each week that may not be immediately obvious. You can find the solutions to these “trickier” tasks in the following articles:
- Week 1 – Collect FORTNITE letters, treasure map from Tomato Town
- Week 2 – Dance in front of film cameras, treasure hunt between a scarecrow, a hot rod, and a screen
- Week 3 – Rubber ducks, repeats, and the treasure map from Salty Springs
- Week 4 – Look for treasure between a bench, an ice cream truck, and a helicopter
- Week 5 – Dance at Loot Lake, treasure from Greasy Grove
- Week 6 – Spray Carbide posters, search between a playground, a campsite, and a footprint
- Week 7 – Score goals on soccer fields and treasure from Pleasant Park
- Week 8 – Find 7 hungry gnomes and search treasure between a bear, crater, and refrigerator delivery
- Week 9 – Visit named locations and search treasure from Haunted Hills
- Week 10 – Search between film titles and fly through rings
The Bonus Levels from the Blockbuster Loading Screens
Those who complete the weekly challenges receive a bonus loading screen. However, these are not ordinary loading screens; the images depicted contain hints of bonus stars hidden, each of which allows you to level up one whole level in the Battle Pass.
If you collect these hidden Battle Stars every week, it gives you an additional 10 levels in the Battle Pass – which you should definitely do!
The following articles describe the locations of the hidden stars:
- Week 1 – Check the northeast tower of the prison!
- Week 2 – Go to the intersection of coordinates A4 / B4 / A3 / B3!
- Week 3 – Investigate a hill at Fatal Fields
- Week 4 – Inspect the rocket silo near Snobby Shores!
- Week 5 – Pay a visit to the crab!
- Week 6 – Investigate a Fork Knife truck
- Week 7 – The Visitor’s capsule
The Daily Challenges of Season 4
Every day you can complete a daily challenge, which gives you 5 Battle Stars and thus half a level in the Battle Pass. Throughout the duration of Season 4, you can earn another 345 Battle Stars in this way, which equates to nearly 35 levels.
The daily tasks are diverse and can usually be completed in just a few matches:
- Play specific game modes and survive longer than your enemies
- Defeat opponents with specific weapon types
- Complete matches
Did you get a task that seems too hard or lengthy? You have the option to reset the challenge once per day. Just check the challenges (L3 for Playstation 4) and reset the desired task.
Pro Tip: You can have up to three daily tasks active at the same time. If you have no time to play Fortnite: Battle Royale on a certain day? Simply logging in will unlock the daily challenge.
iOS users only need to start the game briefly on their mobile device to unlock the daily task. You can then complete these later – all at once. This way, you prevent too many days from slipping by.
If you get suitable daily challenges, you can complete them in one go and ideally combine them with weekly tasks.
The Seasonal Level in Season 4
In addition to the Battle Pass levels, you will also level up in the normal level during the course of the season. If you regularly complete challenges and occasionally score a victory, you should reach Level 60 by the end of the season.
With each level up, you earn 2 Battle Stars. Every fifth level gives you 5 Battle Stars, and every 10 levels gives you 10. At Level 60, you would have earned 184 Battle Stars.
The situation is different if you want to fully upgrade the Omega skin, which is the reward for Battle Pass Level 100. You will need a seasonal level of 80, which translates to 246 Battle Stars. Therefore, if you definitely want to unlock all stages of Omega, you cannot avoid Level 80.
What do I need to do to surely reach Level 100? To definitely unlock the Omega skin at Battle Pass Level 100, you need to do the following:
- Complete the standard challenges – 50 Battle Stars
- Complete all weekly challenges – 500 Battle Stars
- Find the hidden stars from the Blockbuster loading screens – 100 Battle Stars
- Reach Season Level 60 – 184 Battle Stars
Now you are still missing 166 Battle Stars to reach Level 100 in the Battle Pass. If you complete the daily challenges on 34 days, you will receive an additional 170 Battle Stars and you will have the Omega skin in your possession! So you only need to log in every other day. If you store the challenges in between, you will even finish faster!
If you have trouble winning a game, you will need to complete the daily challenges on 36 days to offset the 10 missing stars.
How far have you brought your Battle Pass?
