One look at all the quests for Fortnite Chapter Five season two will reveal that it’s not all about gods and goddesses from ancient Greek mythology. We don’t know much about these SHADOW people yet, but they seem to have a lot of quests for us.

With a new battle pass full of skins, styles, and cosmetics to unlock, we embark on a journey to get as much XP as possible in Fortnite.

What are SHADOW Briefings in Fortnite?

SHADOW Briefings are computers scattered around the map in Fortnite Chapter Five season two. By interacting with them, you can accept different kinds of missions.

  • Bounty SHADOW Briefing computers: These missions work like Bounty Boards. They pick a random target, mark their general location on the map, and set a timer for you to hunt them down.
  • Supply SHADOW Briefing computers: These missions cause a Supply Drop to descend to a marked area slowly. These are by far the most rewarding ones.
  • Treasure SHADOW Briefing computers: These missions mark two treasures’ general area and set a timer to track them.
  • Vehicle SHADOW Briefing computers: These missions mark a vehicle’s general area and set a timer to track it.

To complete the quest, you need to find three SHADOW Briefing computers of any kind and accept their missions. Keep in mind that you don’t actually have to complete the missions to get the XP.
