This week’s Fortnite Battle Pass challenges are a bit different. Two involve doing things over the course of one match (searching ammo boxes and getting to the center of storm circles), and there’s only one true “search” challenge, finding a Battle Star between a bench, ice cream truck and helicopter in a specific part of the map.
There are no gnomes or duckies to find, no Treasure Map to follow, so this is going to be your only real non-combat hunt this week, in what is otherwise a decently tough array of challenges. Fortunately, as ever, we know exactly where that Battle Star is going to be for an easy completion of this challenge.
See the rest of the Week 4 Challenges, and find out how to complete them.
Benches and Ice Cream trucks are both pretty common in Fortnite, so that’s no real help, but helicopters? Less so. My first instinct was to go to the buried ice cream truck near the military base at Dusty Divot, which also contains a parked helicopter, but that would be wrong.

Rather, the correct answer is that your prize lies in none other than Moisty Mire. In addition to there being both a bench and an ice cream truck nearby, there is also a helicopter which is in front of a green screen as part of whatever disaster movie they’re currently filming there, which is part of the new season 4 changes. Not quite as noticeable as the giant crater in the ground, but the movie set keeps expanding, and perhaps we’ll learn more about the film as the weeks go on.
Using this area to navigate, you’re going to want to head to a patch of dirty just below the “S” in Moisty Mire on the map. It should not be all that tough to find, as these things usually aren’t, but you will obviously have to be on the lookout for other players trying to reach the same spot. Below is what I believe is the exact spot to complete the challenge. Depending on your pathing out of the bus, you could probably fly straight to it almost instantly if you wanted to.

I like these “search between” challenges more than the “collect 7 things” or “dance in front of 7 things” ones, though they’re not quite as fun as the treasure maps, I think. The community also solves these instantaneously, so I wouldn’t blame you if you wanted to puzzle it out on your own. But clearly you don’t, given that you’ve arrived at this article. As always, remember that you have to complete the match to get credit for the challenge. You can’t just get there and duck out.
Happy hunting. This will be one of the easier challenges this week, so be sure to try and knock it out right away.

Season 4 of Fortnite: Battle Royale rolls on with a new set of challenges for Battle Pass owners to complete. Week 4's challenges are now live on PS4, Xbox One, PC, and iOS, and this time around, they're made up primarily of straightforward tasks, although a few may still pose a bit of trouble. Here's how to complete all of Week 4's objectives.
As usual, there are seven new challenges to complete, most of which are fairly self-explanatory. On the easier end of the spectrum, one challenge tasks you with dealing damage with Assault Rifles, which is simply a matter of finding the right weapon and using it to inflict a specific amount of damage to other players.
Some of the other new challenges are a bit more dependent on luck. One tasks you with visiting the center of three Storm Circles in a single match, while another has you searching seven Ammo Boxes in a match. There's also a challenge that requires you to search seven chests in Wailing Woods, but fortunately, this one doesn't have to be completed in a single round.
The one that will likely prove to be the trickiest is a Hard-difficulty challenge that cryptically says to search between a bench, Ice Cream Truck, and Helicopter. Both benches and Ice Cream Trucks are fairly common on the map, so your biggest clue is the helicopter. As you can see in our map below, the challenge leads you to the center of Moisty Mire, under a big tree near the area's movie set. Simply head to that location and you'll be able to pick up a Battle Star.
The remaining two challenges are likewise labeled Hard. The first tasks you with eliminating one opponent using a Trap, while the second has you eliminating three players in Snobby Shores. Your best bet for completing each is to attempt the challenges in a Solo playlist, where you don't need to worry about opponents being revived by teammates. The reward for clearing each Hard challenge is 10 Battle Stars.
Completing weekly challenges helps you rank up your Battle Pass, which in turn unlocks new skins and cosmetics. As always, the weekly challenges will be available through the remainder of Season 4, so you have until the season ends to complete them and unlock rewards.
However, since Season 4 kicked off, Epic has offered an incentive to complete each weekly challenge as quickly as you can. Clearing all the challenges within a given week completes a new Blockbuster challenge, which rewards you with a loading screen that points to the location of a free Battle Pass tier. You can get a full rundown on how to complete everything in our Season 4 challenge guide.
