Fortnite Season 2 Week 1 Challenges: IO Airships, Siege Cannons, And More

Fortnite Season 2 has arrived. And while that means a whole heck of a lot of new stuff is now in the game, it also means reliable weekly challenges are here to grant you a bundle of XP in a hurry. The debut seasonal quests include using new features like tactical sprinting, spending good old-fashioned gold bars, and opening chests on IO airships. Here we'll guide you through how to complete all of the Week 1 Fortnite challenges.

Fortnite Season 2 Week 1 challenges

There are seven weekly (seasonal) quests in Week 1. Each is worth 20,000 XP for a total of 140,000 XP, a slight decrease compared to last season's weekly gains. However, daily quests award a bit more than before too. Of the nine challenges listed below, the bottom two will not be used in-game unless others prove to be glitched. Epic uses them as hot-swaps for broken quests.

  • Spend gold bars (500) - 20,000 XP
  • Collect a Drum Shotgun and a Combat SMG in a single match (2) - 20,000 XP
  • Mantle onto a ledge within three seconds of sprinting (3) - 20,000 XP
  • Use a Repair Torch to fix a vehicle (200) - 20,000 XP
  • Search chests on IO airships (3) - 20,000 XP
  • Deal damage to IO forces (500) - 20,000 XP
  • Launch yourself 150 meters from a Siege Cannon (150) - 20,000 XP
  • Search chests or ammo boxes at named locations (10) - 20,000 XP
  • Damage opponents with a shotgun or SMG (1000)
IO airships hover over all IO-controlled regions.

As soon as you drop in, look for a place to sprint and mantle three times. Your reach is pretty athletic and there's no shortage of qualifying locations. I completed this one around Chonker's Speedway by jumping to rock ledges, for what it's worth.
