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

In Fortnite Chapter 6, Season 1, a unique challenge offers players a choice, a rarity in typical directive-based quests. This guide explains how to complete the challenge requiring you to decide whether to keep or discard the Oni Mask.

How to Decide: Keep or Discard the Oni Mask in Fortnite

The second set of weekly quests presents a slightly more complex challenge than its predecessor. It involves locating a hidden workshop, multiple visits to Kento, and investigating a Portal. However, one task stands out for its relative simplicity: acquiring either a Fire Oni Mask or a Void Oni Mask.

Masks are readily available throughout the game, obtainable from various locations and eliminated opponents. Earning the 25k XP reward is generally straightforward. However, after acquiring a Mask, remember a crucial step before returning to the lobby.

Upon picking up a Mask, the next quest prompts you to "decide to use the Mask or rid yourself of it." This ambiguous phrasing can be confusing. The solution is simple: either activate the Mask's power or remove it from your inventory.
