Fortnite Unmasks Decision: Use or Dispose

In Fortnite Chapter 6, Season 1, a unique challenge offers players a choice, a rarity in typical directive-based quests. This guide explains how to complete the challenge requiring you to decide whether to keep or discard an Oni Mask.

How to Decide: Keep or Discard the Oni Mask in Fortnite

The second set of weekly quests presents a slightly more complex challenge than the previous week's. Tasks include locating a hidden workshop, visiting Kento twice, and investigating a Portal. However, one straightforward challenge involves collecting either a Fire Oni Mask or a Void Oni Mask.

Masks are readily available throughout the game, found in various locations and obtainable from eliminated opponents. Earning the 25k XP reward should be relatively easy. However, after acquiring a Mask, avoid immediate elimination; a crucial step remains before returning to the lobby.

Upon picking up a Mask, the next quest prompts you to "decide to use the Mask or rid yourself of it." This ambiguous phrasing might cause confusion. Simply utilize the Mask's power or remove it from your inventory – it's that straightforward.

Even if you choose to retain the Mask, immediate use is recommended. Other players aggressively pursue these challenges, making elimination a real possibility. Proactive use prevents the need for another Mask search in subsequent matches.
