How To Decide To Use the Mask or Rid Yourself of It in Fortnite

Fortnite Chapter 6, Season 1 introduces a unique challenge: choosing to use or discard an Oni Mask for extra XP. Unlike typical challenges, this one offers player agency. Here's how to complete it:

This week's Fortnite quests include finding a hidden workshop, visiting Kento, and investigating a portal. The Oni Mask challenge, however, is simpler: find either a Fire or Void Oni Mask. These masks are readily available throughout the game, dropping from eliminated players and found in various locations. Acquiring one is relatively easy, granting a 25k XP reward.

The key is what happens after you pick up the mask. A new quest immediately appears: "decide to use the Mask or rid yourself of it." This doesn't require a complex decision; simply activate the mask's ability or drop it from your inventory.

While you can choose to keep it, using the mask immediately is recommended. Other players are actively hunting for masks, making you a target. Using the mask’s power before returning to the lobby ensures you secure the XP without risking elimination.

Fortnite is available on multiple platforms, including Meta Quest 2 and 3.
