FORTNITE Chapter 4 is well underway, and the latest set of weekly challenges has started.

There are a number of weapons, shields, and items you have to find and use in order to complete them all.

The elusive Oathbound chests.

You will earn 16k XP for each challenge you complete, and you can get an extra bonus depending on how many you get done.

They’ll be gone for good next week, so make sure you take on board these Fortnite tips while you can.

Fortnite: Activate four augments in a single match

In order to finish this challenge, you need to complete the Reality Augment tutorial quests first.

This will unlock The Oathbound chests that you need for this challenge as they give you access to augments.

Once you have the augments they will charge up during the match. You can check how much they’re charged by looking at the bar on the right of the screen.

If you activate your augment, it will remain active for the rest of the map. You simply have to wait for enough charge so you can activate four in a single match.

Fortnite: Deal 200 damage to opponents with bows

Bows have the same deadly accuracy as Sniper Rifles, but are better at mid-to-close-range combat.

These can be found in random loot all over the map in Fortnite, so you just have to keep your eye out for one.

Once you find some, you just have to keep firing until you deal enough damage.

They don’t have the greatest range, so make sure you are fairly close to your target before you start shooting.

Fortnite: Sprint for 100 meters continuously under the effects of Slap

Slap Juice is a new item introduced in Chapter 4, and is an energy drink that can be found anywhere in loot. 

Once you have drunk a bottle, your feet will glow orange, and you will have infinite stamina for 50 seconds.

This means you will be able to sprint constantly, so just make sure you head in one direction until you get the XP.

You’ll also need to steer clear obstacles in your path which will prevent you from gaining distance.

Fortnite: Land 10 direct hits on players with the Ex-Caliber Rifle

While it takes a lot of skill to wield effectively, the Ex-Caliber Rifle is very satisfying to use.

This is a marksman rifle that shoots blades at your opponents. Even if they miss, they’ll explode after a few seconds, giving you more ways to deal damage.

However, for this challenge you need to make a direct hit, meaning the blade must hit the player not the explosion.

Take your time in lining up your shots and you should be able to pull this one off.

Fortnite: Block 10 shots while holding the Guardian Shield

Guardian Shields are hard to pick up as they can only be found in rare Oathbound chests.

These usually spawn around places of interest, and there are some tips that will help you see them even through walls. 

Not all chests carry a Guardian Shield though, so you may have to search a few before finding them.

Once you have one, equip it and throw it out to start taking bullets but not damage.

Fortnite: Search five containers while under the effects of Slap

Returning to the joys of Slap Juice, this time you have to use your stamina to loot containers.

This can be chests, coolers, produce boxes, ice machines, or anything else you come across.

If you find a few bottles of Slap Juice in a single match, this one should be easy.
