Season 4, week 9 quest guide

Damage opponents with a Suppressed Submachine Gun (200)

This is a quest you’ll likely complete by playing naturally, but do make sure you prioritize picking up the Suppressed SMG, which is available as floor loot or from chests. For this, you need to deal 200 damage to either real players or AI enemies within a match. This challenge is cumulative, so you don’t need to deal all 200 damage in one match.

Drive a vehicle into a Chrome Vortex and fly around it for 10 seconds (10)

Chrome Vortexes are the large tornadoes found around the map. You can actually check their locations by looking on the map — as indicated by a tornado icon. Land close to a Chrome Vortex, and then keep your eyes peeled for a vehicle. There’s almost always a car somewhere around Chrome Crossroads, next to the gas station. Once you’ve got a vehicle, drive it into the Chrome Vortex and wait to be carried up. After 10 seconds, you’ll earn credit for completing this quest.

Emote outside of Bao Bros’ bunker (1)

Bao Bros’ bunker is found on the east side of Loot Lake, just west of Chrome Crossroads. Use the map above for reference. Simply head to this location and use any emote at the bunker to complete this quest.

Glide 250 meters with the Grapple Glider in one shot (250)

The Grapple Glider is available as floor loot, from chests, and from Supply Drops, so there are plenty of ways to get your hands on them. Once you’ve found one, head to the top of an elevated location, such as Rave Cave or another high spot, and use the Grapple Glider to shoot yourself up in the air. Immediately deploy your Glider and then do your best to cover as much ground as possible. You need to glide 250 meters in one go, but you shouldn’t have much trouble with this if you jump from a high enough point.

Hunt a glowing loot animal (1)

Around the map in random locations are glowing loot animals, which — as the name suggests — have glowing physical characteristics. These include chickens, boars, wolves, and crows. However, an easy way to guarantee you find a glowing loot animal is to hunt the shark at Loot Lake. This shark always spawns as a glowing loot animal, so all you need to do is defeat it to complete this quest.

Loot a legendary weapon from an eliminated player (1)

This quest is luck-based, but if you last to the end portion of a match, you’re much more likely to come across a player carrying a legendary weapon (remember, legendary weapons are orange). It’s best to perform this quest with a squad, so you’ve got some assistance when it comes to taking down foes. Simply pick up the dropped legendary weapon to earn credit for this quest.

Use the Dial-A-Drop to call in a vehicle (1)

The Dial-A-Drop was featured in a previous quest this season, but it was bugged, as the item wasn’t actually available in-game. Now it seems to have been fixed, and you can find a Dial-A-Drop from chests. It appears as a purple little radio, and when you utilize it, you can select a vehicle to spawn from the sky. Pick a vehicle, and you’ll complete his quest with ease (it’s the rightmost option).

Fortnite continues to be one of the most popular games in the world, with a strong competitive scene, and like any competitive game, players want every possible advantage they can get. One of the best ways to improve your chances of winning is to tweak the game's settings so it runs at higher frame rates, lowering your input lag and helping you to react faster.

Fortnite is a slightly more demanding esport than some of its older rivals, but that just means there's more scope for performance improvements if you select the right settings. Here are the most important performance-enhancing tweaks you can make to Fortnite.

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.
