Fortnite: Mask On or Off? Tips for Decision

In Fortnite Chapter 6, Season 1, a unique Weekly Quest offers players a choice, a rarity in the game's challenge system. This guide explains how to complete the quest requiring you to "decide to use the Mask or rid yourself of it."

This week's challenges involve finding a hidden workshop, visiting Kento, and investigating a portal. One straightforward task is collecting either a Fire Oni Mask or a Void Oni Mask. These masks are readily found throughout the game world and can be looted from eliminated opponents. Earning the 25k XP reward is relatively easy.

However, the subsequent quest, triggered after picking up a mask, is worded ambiguously: "decide to use the Mask or rid yourself of it." Don't worry, it's simpler than it sounds. To complete this quest, simply either activate the mask's power or drop it from your inventory.

While you can choose to keep the mask, using it immediately is recommended. Other players are actively hunting for masks, and eliminating you to obtain one is a common tactic. Using your mask promptly avoids the need to search for another in a subsequent match.

This concludes the guide on completing the "decide to use the Mask or rid yourself of it" quest in Fortnite. For further quest assistance, check out our guide on placing Spirit Charms.
