Weapon Expertise Quests Explained
Weapon Expertise Quests introduce a thrilling mechanic to Fortnite Hunters, closely linked to specific NPCs who guide players through the quest journey. The initial quest prompts players to converse with Hope, Ruji, or Agent Jones, initiating a series of challenges divided into five stages. Successfully navigating these stages allows players to unlock Legendary weapons from Hope, Ruji, or Vengeance Jones, and subsequent quests enable purchases of Oni Masks from Daigo and the Typhoon Blade from Kendo. These quests are easily tracked in the main lobby or in-game, under the Quests Tab, ensuring players can monitor their progress seamlessly.
While completing Weapon Expertise Quests might require some time, the rewards are undeniably worth the effort. Here's a comprehensive breakdown of the Legendary weapons available for purchase upon quest completion:
