Several Fortnite fans have been complaining that the current Battle Pass is sort of difficult to level up as there is not much free XP being given away as there has been in the previous seasons.
To make things more challenging, the current season’s Battle Pass skins feature several fan-favorite Marvel superheroes that fans are really eager to unlock. However, it looks like the developers are listening because a new secret challenge that was launched in Week 3 provides players free 20,000 XP upon completion.
Back in Season 2, fans found a set of secret challenges that rewards an extra mound of XP after helping in the war between teddy bears and garden gnomes. For this season, the gnomes are back and are ready to provide a bunch of much-needed XP to all players who participate in the Event of the Year.
In order to finish this challenge, players are tasked to locate a gnome inside The Authority’s island and stand beside it. Here’s an in-depth guide on how to find and complete the secret challenge of Fortnite Season 4.
The challenge is quite simple and the most troublesome part will be finding the gnome’s exact location. Players can find the gnome waiting on the northeastern corner of the island where The Authority is situated.
The gnome is waiting on the lake’s shore and is facing an advertising signboard of Super Slurp Juice. To finish the challenge, players must stand beside the gnome and also face the signboard. After doing so, they will be rewarded 20,000 XP on their Battle Pass.
The main focus of this season is about the Nexus War which features a few Marvel superheroes in this massive crossover showcase. However, based on recent leaks, it looks like a substance called Super Slurp is joining the game and will be related to the gnomes.
Some players guess that this would imply the inclusion of a new support item but time can only tell if this is true.
