Fortnite's Find the Force event has brought several new challenges to keep gameplay interesting. One of the challenges is to destroy items with a Star Wars weapon or a Force Ability, which are hard to come by. Force Abilities do not drop from chests and lightsabers and blasters can be difficult to find. Fortunately, there's a simple and quick method to complete this task. Here's how you can proceed.

Click to start the match from the lobby. It must be Zero Build or Battle Royale. Remember that traffic may be very high due to the new update and the fact that Star Wars events are always popular. This may cause a delay in matchmaking.


Step 3: Get a Star Wars weapon

There are three ways to get a Star Wars weapon. You can get a lightsaber, a blaster, or a Force Ability. The easiest way is likely to search for a new chest and get a blaster. There are multiple locations for the Republic chests in Find the Force right now. Alternatively, there are Fortnite NPCs that can teach Force Abilities. Lightsabers can drop from chests.


Step 4: Destroy items

Whether it's with a lightsaber, the newest Star Wars blaster, or Force Ability, the next step is to destroy items. The former makes it easy to destroy things quickly, making it the best option for the challenge. The latter has a cooldown, and blasters deal a smaller amount of damage per hit, but any of them will suffice. It may take some time, but the quest is easy from here on out. Doing this to a building with many items inside is recommended to finish the challenge sooner.


The Star Wars challenges in Fortnite are live now, so you can log in and complete them all. This is an excellent way to earn XP to level up on the battle pass before the season ends next month. They will be available until May 23, when the event closes. However, completing them sooner rather than later is always advisable so you can get back to playing normally.
