There aretwo pages of queststo complete if you want everything, so let me give you a hand, as a few of these tasks are pretty tricky! In this guide, I’ll explain every quest and all their rewards.
All Magneto page one quests in Fortnite
I’ve already read multiple reports of players struggling with these quests, so let’s start with the toughest one first.
How to collect Magneto Power in Fortnite
Magneto Power is a surprisingly rare weapon withonly a single guaranteed spawn point. You can get the Power from Magneto himself atBrawler’s Battleground, but there’s a problem.
Magneto only stocks a single Magneto Power, so you may’t buy it from him if you’re late. The weapon is only a Blue rarity, butI’ve yet to come across one in chests or as ground loot. I know they exist, as I’ve seen multiple players using Magneto Power simultaneously, but it’s an exceptionally rare drop.
If you’re a strong player, you candrop at the hottest POI on the map. Otherwise, keep your fingers crossed, as Magneto Power will show up in a chest eventually.
Visit Weapon X Lab
The Magneto update has added anew unnamed POI south of Grand Glacier, and you must visit it to complete the first challenge. You can find the hideout in the location marked above.
If you’re attempting this challenge around the weekly reset,it’s an exceptionally hot POI. If you’re not the best in a gunfight, you can wait a few minutes before visiting the area, as it will be quieter.
Travel distance in the air with Magneto Power equipped
Magneto Power gives you floaty jumps and negates fall damage. All you need to do to complete the quest isjump aroundas you make your way across the map.
Hit vehicles using Magneto Power
Hitting vehicles is arguably the most straightforward quest of the lot. It doesn’t matter if the vehicle is moving. To complete the challenge,hit any Sports Car or SUV ten timeswith the basic Magneto Power attack.

Eliminate Opponents with Magneto Power
This challenge can be tricky depending on who you encounter, but Magneto Power is a deadly weapon in Fortnite. I’ve found that the best strategy is tohold rocks in front of yourself to deflect gunfireand attack while your opponents reload.
If you’re doing this shortly after the weekly reset, most players don’t have a clue how Magneto Power works.Use that lack of knowledge to your advantage.
Block hits using Magneto Power
You’ll likely complete this quest while trying to eliminate players for the previous challenge. I lucked out and founda bot who would happily shoot at my rock shieldall day.
Keep in mind that concentrated fire will break the rock shield, so you’re not invincible.
Configure Rift Beacons
Magneto Power isn’t required for this quest, and you mustvisit three Beacons(pictured above).
I found the easiest way to complete this quest was with a car, and you’re able to complete the challenge across multiple games.
The Rift Beacons don’t seem to serve any other purpose beyond this quest, and you can see their locations circled in the image above.
Damage opponents from one story above or higher
This is an easy quest, althoughdealing the required 2000 damage will take a while. I recommend heading to your favorite POI and camping on the roofs. You can see enemies coming if youturn Visual Footsteps on, which speeds up the process.
While I’ve not completed this challenge yet, I’ll do this atReckless Railways, as the station roof is a great vantage point. It’s also worth noting that you do not need to use Magneto Power to complete this quest. Any regular weapon will do, but something ranged like a Marksman or Sniper Rifle will work best.
Magneto Power is incredibly powerful, but I still thinkNitro Fists have it beat for utility. verify to give them a go, as they are superb for end-game situations.
