Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 3 has been huge for fans of not just the game but also fans of metal music, with Epic Games finally introducing the much-anticipated Metallica collaboration to the game and bringing the icons to the Festival game mode. However, unlike previous Festival seasons, the game's collaboration with Metallica expands to the Battle Royale mode, with the developers introducing Metallica Quests that players can complete for rewards.

In order to complete them, players have to collect Metallica Music Notes, which can be acquired by damaging opponents and searching containers. However, in a recent Reddit post shared by u/extranotavern, the player showcased a way to quickly acquire an abundance of Metallica Music Notes, with the process involving refilling a Repair Torch constantly.

The Reddit post, with its demonstration of efficiency, attracted a lot of eyes from the community, with u/Tiny_Dependent_5106 expressing their surprise at the Chapter 5 Season 3 technique and exclaiming:

Other members of the community also chimed in to give their takes on the Metallica Music Notes technique showcased in the Reddit clip, with u/Lordscott91 expressing how they wish they knew about this Music Notes farming trick before they completed their Metallica Quests. u/Trullius, on the other hand, revealed how they tried to implement this technique but kept getting constantly interrupted by enemies.

Meanwhile, u/thepuglife86 suggested a way to make this method even more efficient, proposing the idea of throwing a Shield Breaker EMP grenade at the gas station to make it blurt out Metallica Music Notes. This is due to the fact that a similar trick works with Fortnite Vending Machines, allowing players to throw Shield Breaker EMP at a Vending Machine causing them to spit out Gold Bars.


What is the reward for collecting enough Metallica Music Notes in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 3?

Metallica Music Notes are scattered all across the Chapter 5 Season 3 map, and players can chase after these precious items to unlock a Metallica-themed loading screen. The loading screen in question is the Metallica Rises Loading Screen and it features all four members of the legendary band performing together.

The visuals depicted in the Metallica Rises Loading Screen seem to be showcasing the new Metallica Loot Island that was added to Battle Royale with the v30.10 update, which was inspired by Metallica's M72 World Tour Stage, further adding to the allure of the reward.
