Another week, another set of challenges that Epic Games has put up to challenge players to accomplish various objectives in Fortnite. Last week’s achievements had a few doozies in them that we put up hints on how to complete, but the Fortnite Week 5 challenges hopefully aren’t too hard this time.
Fortnite challenges give players bonus experience and Battle Stars that they can use to rise to higher tiers of the Battle Pass mechanic, which lets them unlock cool new skins and various other rewards. For instance, completing four of the seven challenges for this week will net you 4,000 extra experience points.
The various Fortnite Week 5 challenges include dealing out 500 damage to opponents with submachine guns, searching seven chests in the Dusty Divot area, using a jetpack, finding seven Gravity Stones, following the treasure map you can find in Greasy Grove, getting two minigun or light machine gun eliminations, and finally you have to eliminate three different opponents in the Lucky Landing area.
Most of these are fairly simple except for finding the Gravity Stones, especially since the exact locations of those items haven’t been found yet. It’ll likely be easier to complete that challenge once information about their locations end up on the internet, but in the meantime most of them seem pretty easy to complete, especially since there’s a limited time mode where Jetpacks are a major feature.
One of the deciding factors in difficulty between this week’s challenges and last week’s are mainly that there’s nothing in this week’s challenges that require you to complete a certain number of objectives all during the same match. Now, since you apparently don’t have to do that (though until Epic actually announces them we can’t say for sure), doing challenges like getting two minigun or LMG eliminations, or eliminating three different opponents in Lucky Landing should be much easier to complete.
So, if you want to take on the Fortnite Week 5 challenges for yourself, you can use this article as a benchmark and hopefully complete all of them this week!
