Fortnite Guide: A walkthrough on Chapter 2 Week 3 Missions

Fortnite's Chapter 2 has been going on for 3 weeks now. After a dramatic ending to Chapter 1 Season 10 where the world was obliterated by a Black Hole (and Fortnite dramatically calling it "The End"), Fortnite returned with some new changes to the game.

These changes include reworking of the Battle Pass, XP system, a new map, guns, upgrading weapons and more. There are 9 challenges in week 3 and a 10th new challenge that is unlocked which will unlock the "R" alphabet which spells out "FORTNITE". Having all the letters will unlock a special skin in the end of the season.

Here are the challenges of week 3, also known as Forged in Slurp:

• Search Chests at Slurpy Swamp or Retail Row (x7)
• Eliminate opponents with a weapon of each rarity (x1)
• Upgrade an item at a Weapon Upgrade Bench (x3)
• Dance at Compact Cars, Lockie’s Lighthouse and a Weather Station (x1)
• Deal Damage with Common weapons (x500)
• Mark an Uncommon, Rare and Epic Item (x1)
• Eliminate opponents at EGO outposts or Retail Row (x3)
• Search Supply Drops in different matches (x250)
• Deal Damage with Legendary weapons (x250)
• Search hidden ‘R’ found in the Forged by Slurp Loading Screen (0/1)

Here is an in-depth guide on how to complete these challenges.

#1 Search Chests at Slurpy Swamp or Retail Row (x7)

Chests in Fortnite are a great way to unlock Common, Uncommon and Rare weapons. The weapons in Fortnite which have been around since the beginning have also received quite a few upgrades and unlocking new tiers.

There are 16 chests in Slurpy Swamp and 20 chests in Retail Row. You don't have to collect all of them, you just need a total of 7 from either location. Here is a video guide on how to collect the chests from these two locations

#2 Eliminate opponents with a weapon of each rarity (x1)

A chart of weapon rarities

Fortnite Chapter 2 updated existing weapons such as the Assault Rifle, Shotguns, SMGs and many others with new Epic and Legendary rarities. Epic and Legendary weapons are harder to come by but hopefully you kept one stashed around. But all you need is 5 eliminations with a Common, Uncommon, Rare, Epic and Legendary Weapon to complete this challenge.

If you don't have an upgraded weapon, the next challenge will be of interest to you.

#3 Upgrade an item at a Weapon Upgrade Bench (x3)

Locations of upgrade benches

Weapon Upgrade Benches are a new feature introduced in Chapter 2. You can directly upgrade the rarity of your weapon instead of relying on RNG from loot boxes. Going from Common to Uncommon costs 50 Metal, 50 Wood and 50 Stone. From there, the upgrade costs per rarity increases by 100 of each resource.

#4 Dance at Compact Cars, Lockie’s Lighthouse and a Weather Station (x1)

This challenge is simple and relatively straightforward. You simply need to go to these specific locations: Lockie's Lighthouse, Weather Station and Compact Cars. Lockie's Lighthouse is the northernmost corner of the map. The Weather Station is towards the southwestern edge and Compact Cars is right outside Frenzy Farm. The above image marks the exact spots you need to go to for this challenge.

#5 Deal Damage with Common weapons (x500)

This is probably the easiest challenge of the week. Killing 5 enemies or even 3 at full health + shield is good enough to complete the challenge. Common Weapons are also so easy to find and you probably already have one in your stash without even noticing.

The highest dealing damage weapons are probably the Rocket Launcher and Sniper. But they are weak and slow at the common level. Use an Assault Rifle or Tactical Shotgun for better aim and an easier method to deal damage to your opponents easier.

# Mark an Uncommon, Rare and Epic Item (x1)

Marking an item simply means "pinging" your teammates that there is an item/drop available for pick up. In the PC, it's the middle mouse and on most consoles, it is the left button on the D-Pad. Simply mark an Uncommon, Rare or Epic item to complete this challenge.

The feature is quite new to Fortnite and came to the game in Season 9 after Apex Legends introduced the feature. Marking is a good way to inform your teammate of drops and items if you don't have a mic or can't communicate via chat.

#7 Eliminate opponents at EGO outposts or Retail Row (x3)

Location of EGO Outposts in the map

The above image encircles the locations of the different EGO Outposts in the game. You will need to eliminate 3 opponents in these locations or in Retail Row which is in the southeastern point of the map.

#8 Search Supply Drops in different matches (x250)

This is the longest challenge of the week (unless you are grinding to find Legendary weapons and drops). You will need to search for 250 different items from supply drops that drop during the game. You can do this in different matches so long as you find the 250 different items.

Supply drops are a common theme in most Battle Royales and they are also quite handy to come by during a match.

---

#9 Deal Damage with Legendary weapons (x250)

Legendary Weapons are hard to come by but it does make it easier if you already own one. Several weapons have received an upgradeable option to Legendary Weapons and it is also possible to upgrade them in benches (though it can be very, very resource-heavy). If you don't have any Legendary Weapons you will unfortunately not be able to complete this list of challenges.

But you could also get lucky and get a Legendary Weapon from supply drops and chests which will give you what you need. Simply deal 250 damage to opponents with a Legendary Weapon to complete this challenge.

#10 Search hidden ‘R’ found in the Forged by Slurp Loading Screen (0/1)

We have already made a short guide on how to find the hidden R. You will only unlock this challenge after having completed the previous 9 challenges. Finding the letters that spell "FORTNITE" every week will unlock a special skin towards the end of the season, just like previous seasons.

The location of the R can be found on the loading screen this week. Completing this challenge will mean that you will have completed all the Forged by Slurp challenges.

Fortnite challenges are a great way to upgrade your Battle Pass and gain XP. You can get 14000 XP per completed challenge now. It's usually worth doing these challenges even if they can be time-consuming or take some effort.

We wish you the best of luck with completing these challenges. Look out in this space next week when a new set of challenges arrives!
