Season 1, week 13 quest guide

Using Spider-Man’s Web-Shooters, Swing Under an Arch at Desert Arch, Big Bridge, or Covered Bridge (1)

There are a few ways to complete this challenge, but we advise visiting Behemoth Bridge between Covert Cavern and Shifty Shafts. The map above shows its specific location (thanks, Fortnite.gg). On the underside of the bridge is a set of Spider-Man web-shooters, so grab them, then jump off and swing beneath the same bridge. If done correctly, the game will immediately notify you.

Use a Chug Splash at a Gas Station (1)

As you play, be on the lookout for chug splashes, which are items used to restore shields. When you find one, be aware of the nearest gas station, and try to plan a route to get there safely. As you can see on the map above, there are plenty of gas stations around the map, but the center area has lots of options, giving you the freedom to rotate there as the gas comes in. Simply get close to the gas station (right next to the pumps or building) and use the chug splash to complete this one.

Throw a Med Kit, Bandages, or any Shield Potion While Sliding (3)

Here’s a weird one. For this challenge, you need to throw a medkit, bandage, or shield potion while sliding, which is not something you’d normally do in a typical match. To complete the challenge, you need to throw three items, but any combination of the aforementioned healing materials will do. By this point, you should be familiar with sliding and throwing items, but in case you aren’t, we’ll explain. After you’ve collected enough healing items, get to a steep slope and click in the right stick while running. You’ll then enter a slide, so navigate to the healing item you’d like to throw, hold the left trigger to aim it, and throw with the right trigger. As long as you throw it while sliding, you’ll earn credit. Repeat this two more times to complete the challenge.

Open Produce Boxes at Condo Canyon or Sleepy Sound (5)

While Sleepy Sound might be a safer place to land since it’s usually not busy, we tend to gravitate towards Condo Canyon. Either way, pick one of these areas and loot all the buildings you can find. Inside will be little boxes of fruits and vegetables. To finish this challenge, you need to open five of them, but don’t worry if you can’t find enough within the same match since your progress carries over. There are plenty of buildings at each location so you shouldn’t have much trouble finding produce boxes. Your main issue will be coming across other players who could eliminate you before you complete the challenge, so play it safe if you don’t want to worry about opponents.

Gather Metal at Wreck Ravine, Windbreakers, or Rustaway Shores (100)

The safest and easiest method to completing this challenge is to visit Wreck Ravine, which is located to the west of Logjam Lumberyard on the far shore of the island in between two hills (hence the name). There are few large metal containers you can farm for metal and you should definitely be able to gather 100 metal in one go. You can, of course, land at the other locations but Wreck Ravine is usually safest since it’s so far out of the way.

Damage Opponents with the Striker Pump Shotgun (200)

While pump shotguns aren’t necessarily the meta during this season, you’ll need to use one to complete this challenge. The tricky part is getting your hands on the Striker pump shotgun since finding it comes down to luck, so just make sure you loot as much as possible. During week 12, there was a challenge for collecting treasure using Nathan Drake’s map and it seems like you can get a Striker from the chest, so if you’re having trouble finding the weapon, try using this method. Once you find it, you can prioritize damaging opponents. If you’re struggling, try playing a team-based mode, down the opponent, and finish them with the shotgun to make your life easier.

Collect Bars (300)

Collecting gold bars is something you’d probably do while playing naturally, but if you want to prioritize completing this challenge, we advise completing a bounty. You can also find gold bars in safes, which are scattered around the map. There are a ton of them in Tilted Towers, but this area is typically pretty busy, so your mileage may vary. If you use a combination of cracking safes, defeating enemies, and completing bounties, you’ll complete this one in no time. You might even get lucky and eliminate a player who had a lot of gold bars on them, so try to take out as many opponents as possible.

All vehicle mods in Fortnite and how to use them
Madmax characters in Fortnite.

Vehicles have gotten a major upgrade in Fortnite with Chapter 5, Season 3. Instead of simply being a great way to get around the map faster, and occasionally run over an unlucky opponent, you can now add mods to your cars to turn them into deadly weapons. Since this season's entire theme is centered around vehicular combat, you will be left in the dust if you don't learn how to fully take advantage of all the new ways to kit out your ride. Thankfully, modifying your vehicle is much easier in Fortnite than in real life, so let us give you the rundown on all the vehicle mods and how they work.
All vehicle mods and how they work
Modding a vehicle in Fortnite is so simple you may even do it by accident the first time around. While you're driving around the map, keep your eyes peeled for the vehicle mod crates lying around. These will have some text above them telling you which mod they are. Once you spot one, simply run it over to install that mod on your current car. You can also pick them up on foot and throw them at a vehicle to equip them that way.

Each vehicle can only have one mod per slot, and not all vehicles have the same number of slots. The SUV, for example, can equip any mod, but a dirt bike obviously can't use one that uses the roof slot. Here are all the mods currently in Fortnite.

Fortnite Chapter 5, Season 3 is out now and offers way more Mad Max than Fallout

The new season of Fortnite has begun, bringing players to a Mad Max- and Fallout-style wasteland full of ridiculous vehicle features and new items, including a War Bus you can work to control.

The "story" of Fortnite Chapter 5, Season 3, which is out now, revolves around a huge sandstorm has swept over the battle royale island. This has ushered in the "Wasteland Warriors," who rode in with the storm and transformed the south of the map with new locations. One is the Brutal Beachhead, a beached ship with what looks like a huge bitemark in the front.

Can you fix the Fortnite servers not responding error?

The last thing you want to see when loading up Fortnite for a match with your friends, especially when a big new update is dropping, is to be hit with an error. The worst of which might be the "Fortnite servers not responding" error due to how vague it is. Most people don't know what servers are, let alone what it means when they aren't responding, except that you can't play your game. The question then becomes if you have any power to solve this issue yourself or if you're forced to wait until Epic Games addresses it on its end.
Can you fix the servers not responding error in Fortnite?

The first thing to do when encountering this error in Fortnite is to go straight to the Epic Games Help website or X account (formerly Twitter). This will let you know if it is something on Epic Games' end that is the issue and also keep you updated on the status of when the servers are expected to be fixed. Servers can also be taken down for maintenance or in preparation for major updates, which will also be accounted for here. If this is the case, there's nothing to do but wait until they announce the servers are back up and running.
