How To Decide To Use the Mask or Rid Yourself of It in Fortnite

Fortnite challenges rarely offer player choice for extra XP, usually demanding strict adherence to instructions. However, Chapter 6, Season 1 introduces a twist. This guide explains how to complete the "decide to use the Mask or rid yourself of it" challenge.

The second set of weekly quests in Fortnite Chapter 6, Season 1 presents a unique challenge. After locating a hidden workshop, visiting Kento twice, and investigating a portal, you'll need to collect either a Fire Oni Mask or a Void Oni Mask.

Masks are readily available throughout the game, dropping from eliminated players. Earning the 25k XP reward should be easy. However, after acquiring a Mask, don't rush to your demise! A crucial step awaits.

Upon picking up a Mask, a new quest appears: "decide to use the Mask or rid yourself of it." This seemingly cryptic instruction simply requires you to either activate the Mask's power or drop it from your inventory.
