It’s once again time for a brand new batch of Fortnite quests, this time for Chapter 3, Season 3, week 6. We’re around halfway through the season already, and Epic Games has many more opportunities for us to earn precious battle pass XP. This week, you’ll need to get your hands on lots of specific weapons, which is a standard requirement for many Fortnite quests during Season 3.

From destroying Reality Seed Pods to utilizing the Grappling Glove, these are all the new Fortnite challenges for week 6.

Season 3, week 6 quest guide

Break open Reality Seed Pods (3)

This is one of many challenges tied to Reality Seed Pods this season. If you’ve played since the beginning of the season, you’ll likely already know how to complete it. Otherwise, you should head to Reality Falls, where you’ll find lots of Reality Seed Pods all over the massive tree’s branches and roots.

You need to destroy them to get the Reality Seeds to spawn, and you’ll likely be able to break open three of them in one match. Remember, these are the large purple bulbs that are new this season. These Reality Seed Pods are also located elsewhere, but the easiest way to find them is to visit Reality Falls.

Deal damage to opponents with Rare or better Assault Rifles (1,000)

Rare assault rifles are blue, which are still fairly common throughout the map, especially if you survive toward the end. For this one, you need to deal 1,000 damage with at least a rare assault rifle, which will likely take you a few matches but shouldn’t give you much trouble overall. You can actually use an Enemy Bot grenade to earn progress toward this one, which will surely speed up the process.

Land headshots from 40 or more meters with the Hammer Assault Rifle (5)

You can actually stack this one with the previous challenge, so we recommend trying to complete both at once. The Hammer Assault Rifle isn’t hard to find at all, so keep your eyes peeled as you explore (even better if you find a Rare version or better). From there, do your best to aim for the head when taking shots at your opponents, and keep in mind that you don’t need to earn all five headshots in one match.

Pick a legendary or mythic fruit from a Reality Sapling (1)

Once again, you’ll need to utilize the Reality Seed Pods, so make sure you collect a Seed, as mentioned above. We’ve covered how to grow Saplings in previous guides this season, but the main idea is to grab a Seed from the Pods, head to a secluded location, and plant it there. Then, in a later match, it will grow into a Reality Sapling.

You need to pick the weeds around the Sapling to maintain it, and each time you visit, you’ll be rewarded with items. Continue picking weeds for several matches until you gain access to a Legendary (orange) or Mythic (gold) weapon type. This will take a while, but the longer the Reality Sapling stays, the higher your chance of getting rare loot from it.

Purchase an Exotic weapon from a Character (1)

All around the map, there are NPCs who sell firearms, and to complete this challenge, you need to buy an Exotic weapon. Use the map above to find them. Exotic weapons are light blue (not to be confused with blue Rare weapons) and are typically expensive, so make sure you’ve got plenty of gold bars. If you don’t have enough gold bars, you can complete bounties or eliminate players and collect them from their dropped items.

Use a Baller, a zipline, and a geyser in a single match (3)

This one can be a little tricky if you’re unaware of what to do, but thankfully, there’s an easy way to complete this challenge. First, land at Rave Cave, where you’ll find plenty of Ballers, which are large spheres that can be controlled like vehicles. They’re all around Rave Cave and can be found by the roller coaster.

Then, use the Baller to head southwest to the west side of Reality Falls, where you’ll find a bunch of different geysers, which can be used to bounce into the sky.

Finally, just beside the geysers in this area, at the top of a cliff is a zipline that can be used to reach the area across from it. As long as you’ve utilized all three aforementioned items in the same match, you’ll earn credit for this one.

Use the Grapple Glove to catch a Zipline while airborne (1)

The map is littered with stations, where you’ll find Grapple Gloves, which can be used to swing around. You can also find them as floor loot or from chests. Once you have one, you need to visit a zipline and use the Grapple Glove to attach to it while you’re in the air. Ziplines are all around the map, but remember, you can find one just west of Reality Falls. In fact, you can also find Grapple Gloves at Rave Cave, so you’ll be able to stack this challenge with the previous one for maximum efficiency.

All companions in Baldur’s Gate 3 and how to get them
Wyll with horns dancing.

There's a lot to see in Baldur's Gate 3, but you're not going to get far without a few good companions by your side. Thankfully, you'll stumble upon a wide assortment of NPCs that'd love nothing more than to accompany you on your journey. These friendly faces fill several different roles -- from mages and healers to archers and warriors, there's bound to be a companion that augments your playstyle.

Many of these companions also come with their own series of quests and unlockable skills, turning them into more than just faceless characters to help you in combat. In fact, you can spend hours unraveling their narratives, and depending on your actions, your companions might look very different at the end of Baldur's Gate 3 than when you first met them.

Where to find Vendetta Flopper in Lego Fortnite
Characters fishing in LEGO Fortnite.

The fishing update to Lego Fortnite added, you guessed it, the ability to fish once you've made yourself a rod. Of course, since fish didn't exist in the game before this, an entire school of undersea life needed to be created. Every fish you can catch has a different benefit, from restoring a bunch of health when you eat it to giving you some kind of buff. The rarest and most useful fish is certainly the Vendetta Flopper, making it the most coveted catch in the game. While fishing is still heavily dependent on luck, you won't even have a chance at this fish unless you know where to cast your line.
Where to find the Vendetta Flopper

Before you even attempt to attempt this legendary catch, make sure you're ready with an Epic fishing rod and Epic Bait Bucket to give yourself the best chance at a rare catch. The nest step is to only cast into the glowing purple zones that indicate the presence of rare fish. Fishing in any other part of the water won't yield the Vendetta Flopper we're after.

All Charms and Trinkets in Lego Fortnite

Most things in Lego Fortnite are grounded in reality -- well, as much as they can be in a game where you are a little Lego man running around collecting resources and building entire villages by yourself. You slowly accumulate better gear as you craft new items and upgrade your existing facilities so you can venture further out and face tougher challenges.

There's some equipment that works a bit differently, namely your Trinkets and Charms. These little doodads can be crafted as you collect specific resources, they come in a range of rarities, and all of them give your character a specific buff that can be placed on your armor to add to your character. There's a lot of them out there to find and craft, so we've cataloged all the Charms and Trinkets in Lego Fortnite and what they do.
