In the new season of Fortnite, we finally got a new type of weekly challenge. However, it’s quite similar to challenges like visit the center of the map. This time you have to collect lightning bolts, and they are high up. You have to build your way to the bolts and exposing yourself a lot more than looking for things on the ground. On the plus size, it’s a lot easier to spot the flashes of lightning bolts. The will be seen in the air and have bright beam showing where they are.
To collect the bolts, you have to use your ‘use key’ on the item and wait a few seconds. You’ll know if you collected it correctly if a progress bar appears on the left side of your TV or monitor. If you managed to get hold off a lightning bolt, and are really far out on the map and feel like you rather go for the next game.
Do not leave the game. The bolt will not count that way. Instead, keep playing or get yourself eliminated by either an opponent or fall damage.
Search Floating Lightning Bolts
The locations of the floating lightning bolts are quite spread out on the map, and you it will be hard to get all 7 in one single game. Luckily, are the bolts located on the same locations every round. So you can easily make up a route for your next two or three games and get this challenge out of the way quickly.
A question you wonder is if you can collect the same bolt over and over again? No, as soon as you collected a floating lightning bolt, it’s gone forever. We recommend you keep count of which bolts you have collected, so you don’t head for the same ones again.
Anyway, the locations of the lightning bolts are shown on the interactive map above. Or are they here:
- Northwest of Junk Junction above scraped cars.
- East from Haunted Hills you’ll see two massive mountains, in between them.
- South of secret rocket base, on the mountain.
- By the dock of Loot Lake.
- Above a hill with a camper van on it, north of Wailing Woods.
- West of watchtower in Lonely Lodge.
- Above the centre of Titled Towers.
- Above the centre of Dusty Divot.
- Above ruined houses west of Retail Row.
- Above the centre of Greasy Grove.
- West of Paradise Palms.
- Northeast of Lucky Landing, build up to reach it in the air.
Even tho this is a weekly challenge for the start of the Season. You can complete it whenever you want; you don’t necessarily have to complete it this week. Either way, we wish you good luck with finishing this challenge smoothly!
