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

In Fortnite's 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 "decide to use the Mask or rid yourself of it" quest.

How to Choose Between Keeping or Discarding the Oni Mask in Fortnite

The second set of weekly quests presents a slight increase in difficulty compared to the previous week. Tasks involve locating a hidden workshop, multiple visits to Kento, and investigating a Portal. However, the Fire Oni Mask or Void Oni Mask collection challenge is relatively straightforward.

Masks are readily available throughout the season, found in various locations and obtained from eliminated opponents. Earning the 25k XP reward is generally easy. However, a crucial step follows acquiring a Mask: don't get eliminated before completing the next objective.

Upon picking up a Mask, a subsequent quest prompts you to "decide to use the Mask or rid yourself of it." This phrasing might be misleading. Simply utilize the Mask's power or remove it from your inventory to complete this step.

Even if choosing to retain the Mask, immediate use is advisable. Other players aggressively pursue these challenges, making elimination a real possibility. Proactive use prevents the need to search for another Mask in a subsequent match.
