The new challenges aren’t necessarily hard, but many of them are a little quirky and might be confusing if you aren’t a frequent Fortnite player. Some are tied to new seasonal mechanics, while others simply require downright luck.

In this guide, we’ll show you how to complete all the new week 7 challenges in Fortnite.

Season 3, week 7 quest guide

Crack opponents’ shields (3)

You’ll likely earn credit for this one by simply playing normally. It helps if you attempt it later on in a match, as players will be more likely to have shields. But as long as you deal enough damage to completely deplete an enemy’s shield (so they start taking health damage), you’ll learn credit for this quest. Do this three times to complete it.

Deal damage to airborne opponents (1)

This quest is a little tricky because it’s luck-based, but there is a tactic you can use to improve your chances. Land on the rooftops of Titled Towers (preferably when the Battle Bus flies directly overhead to ensure as many players land here as possible) and quickly grab a weapon. As soon as you do, look up and — with a little luck — you should be able to take a shot at an enemy before they land. If you try this method a couple of times and don’t have any luck, you’ll have to attempt this by playing naturally.

Destroy structures with a Baller (20)

You’ll find a bunch of Ballers in and around Rave Cave. Remember, these are spherical vehicles that can be used to grapple around the map. After you grab a Baller, maneuver through different structures such as walls, street signs, and pretty much anything in your path. To make it as efficient as possible, grapple onto an object and launch yourself toward it (using the boost helps to propel yourself forward with tremendous force).

Keep the first weapon you collect in your inventory until you reach the top 20 players (1)

For this one, you’ll need to play as passively as possible, so hopefully you can stick to the insides of buildings without getting ambushed. Do your best to avoid engagements and even use vehicles to get away from hot spots, if possible. We recommend collecting a decent weapon at first — that way, it’s at least somewhat useful. There’s no use in grabbing something you can’t even use, especially since it’ll take up a precious inventory spot.

Perform an aerial 360 spin while dismounting a Wolf or Boar (1)

What a ridiculous quest. For this one, we advise heading to the east of Shuffled Shrines, where you’ll usually find a Boar or two. Mount a Boar by jumping on its back, and as soon as you straddle it, you can jump off. Make sure you jump in the air with the Boar first to give you enough room to spin all the way around. At the peak of the jump, press the Jump button once more to dismount while tilting the analog stick to the left or right. Make sure your sensitivity is turned up to make it easier to spin a full rotation. As long as you’ve turned 360 degrees, you’ll complete the challenge.

Stop the music at the Rave Cave (3)

Inside Rave Cave, there are three spots where music comes from. Look out for the large speaker systems all around the inside of the cave and destroy them. Go to the main area inside and you’ll see a massive DJ area by a dance floor. On either side of the stage is a large metal structure with yellow speakers that need to be destroyed. Then, head to the north of this area to a circular exit (by the rollercoaster track), where you’ll find the third speaker next to a Slurp barrel.

Throw different Consumable Pickups in a single match (3)

As you play normally, you’ll likely come across a slew of foragable items, which are typically pieces of food like fruits or vegetables. For the best results, we recommend landing around Synapse Station or Chonker’s Speedway. Once you have one, use your Left trigger to aim, and Right trigger to throw them. Do this a total of three times to complete the quest.

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.
