Fortnite challenges Chapter 3 Season 3 Week 4

This week’s Fortnite challenges have you doing a little bit of everything, so we’ll tell you how to earn that sweet XP.

Fall Guys: Tips for Every Hunt Stage

Fortnite continues to move forward in Chapter 3 Season 3, and the weekly challenges keep on coming. They’re a nice and easy way to earn 15k XP each, so we’ll walk you through how to do each of them. This week’s challenges touch on a bit of everything. You’ll be fighting opponents, finding weapons, and flying around in Slipstreams just for the fun of it.

On top of that the Fortnite x Fall Guys crossover event is happening now, so make sure you check out our guide on those challenges to get a free Major Mancake Fortnite skin.

One of the Star Wars weapons available in Fortnite right now, the E-11 Blaster Rifle is a brilliant weapon because of its excellent close and mid-range accuracy, and its infinite ammo count. However, to get your hands on one right now you’ll need to try and fight the Darth Vader boss. We have a guide on how to find and beat Darth Vader in Fortnite, but you only have to kill one of the Stormtroopers to get the rifle. Once you have it, find some buildings and go wild.

The Ripsaw Launcher is a brilliant weapon that fires circular saws, cutting down anyone or anything in their path. You check out our guide for where to find a Ripsaw Launcher, but once you’ve got one, you’ll need to know where to find a Timber Pine.

Fortnite Timber Pines location


The snowy area in the northwest of Fortnite’s map is full of these big trees. Any of the trees around locations like Logjam Lumberyard will count towards this challenge if you cut them down.

Combing two of Chapter 3’s new movement mechanics, the challenge requires you to transition a slide into a mantle. To slide, all you need to do is get a run-up then press the crouch button. To mantle, you simply hold the jump button near a low enough ledge. For the challenge, find a ledge where you can mantle, run towards it, slide, and then jump out of the slide once you’re close enough to the ledge.

Plant a Reality Seed at Sunflower’s Saplings or Fungi Farm

The Reality Seeds are a unique feature of this season that can grow into saplings that drop loot for you each game. To plant one you first need to break open a bulb, which can be found on roots either around the Rave Cave or Reality Tree. Next, throw them down at either Sunflower’s Saplings which is northwest of The Daily Bugle, or Fungi Farm which is southwest of Greasy Grove.

Search chests or ammo boxes at crashed IO Airships

Previous weeks’ challenges had us dancing on these crash sites, but we’ve had enough gloating and it’s time to loot them for all they’re worth. There are five IO Airship crash sites on the map which can be highlighted if you select this challenge in the menu. Once you’re there, open any and every loot container you see.

Travel 500 meters in the Slipstream around Rave Cave

This is perhaps one of the easiest Fortnite challenges ever. The Slipstream is the big wind tunnel that goes through big hoops around Rave Cave. All you need to do is get in it, hold forwards and wait until the challenge is complete. That’s it.
