Week four of Fortnite season 5 is here and it appears the changes made during the transition to season 5 are set in stone now. Three of the seven weekly challenges are still free, while the other four still require the Battle Pass to complete. Therefore, if you want all seven challenges for the week, you need to purchase a Battle Pass for 950 V-Bucks. If you’d prefer to wait, you can buy the Battle Pass anytime throughout the season and be granted access to all challenges from week’s previous.
Below is a list of the seven challenges for week 4 and how to complete them.
Free Tiers
Build structures (250 structures)
The wildcard challenge for the week. Very straightforward, just build 250 structures over as many games as it takes. Just play the game as usual and you’ll be done in no time.
Jump through flaming hoops with a Shopping Cart or ATK (5 hoops)
This is the ‘scavenger hunt’ style challenge for the week and has been moved into the free tier. Dotted around the map are giant flaming hoops (think circus act). You need to jump a Shopping Cart or an ATK (with you in it at the time) through five of these hoops. We have a guide detailing all their locations here.
Eliminate opponents in Dusty Divot (3 eliminations)
The standard location elimination challenge. This week is Dusty Divot and we’re back to the usual three eliminations. Dusty Divot is a relatively good area for this challenge, even if you don’t get in reasonably early. Being central on the map, it usually has decent traffic through it, both as a landing site and as a mid-game stop off. As long as you hang around the area for few games you’ll have it done in short order.
Battle Pass Tiers
Deal damage with Sniper Rifles to opponents (500 damage)
Another Sniper Rifle challenge early on in the season. However, instead of kills it’s damage. This is most likely worse than the two kills challenge as the average sniper shot (body) is about 100 damage, which equates to about five hits. You’re looking at a minimum of three headshots or five bodyshots to complete this challenge, which is harder to pull off – in my view – than two kills. Unless of course, you queue into Duos or Squads. Damage on downed players with the Sniper does count, so if you use this to your advantage, it will make this challenge substantially easier.
Search chests in Flush Factory (7 chests)
The chest search challenge this week takes place in Flush Factory. This is probably one of the better places for this challenge. Flush Factory isn’t highly trafficked (far off centre) and isn’t an overly popular landing destination. Chests spawns in a decent numbers and chest density is also quite good. Wait a day or two for the traffic to die down and you’ll complete this in few games without much issue.
Search between a gas station, soccer pitch and Stunt Mountain
This week’s treasure hunt challenge is of the landmark variety. The three landmarks are: a gas station, a soccer pitch and ‘Stunt Mountain’. If you’re looking for a more in-depth look at the challenge or searching around doesn’t appeal to you, we have a guide just for this occasion.
Pistol Eliminations (3 Eliminations)
The classic eliminate three opponents with X weapon type challenge. This week’s type is pistols. Suppressed Pistol, Pistol, Dual Pistols, Revolver and Deagle all count towards the kill count on this challenge. Probably one of the harder weapon elimination challenges, pistols aren’t the strongest weapon type (at any range) in Fortnite. However, you only need to get three, so scrounge up a decent pistol and go for gold.
