Unraveling the Comet's Mystery: Completing Fortnite's Spirit Realm Quests

Fortnite's latest Story Quests delve into the enigma of a mysterious comet. While many challenges are straightforward, like dealing damage at various POIs, one presents a unique hurdle: locating comet traces within a mountainous region. This guide simplifies the process.

The Spirit Realm Quests' third stage requires finding three out of seven comet traces in the southwest mountains. Efficiency is key. The optimal strategy involves targeting a cluster of traces to minimize travel time.

The most efficient approach is to head to the mountain south of Warrior's Watch. This mountain boasts two easily accessible traces behind the POI, plus an additional trace on a nearby peak. However, due to the high XP rewards, these locations attract many players. Avoid landing directly on the mountain; instead, land at Warrior's Watch, gather loot, and then proceed to the traces.

Locating the traces requires careful observation. They emit a faint white glow and are marked with a magnifying glass icon, but only at close proximity. Utilize your map, placing markers on your target traces to prevent getting lost or encountering unexpected combat.
