How to destroy the 9 false pieces of 8 on the island in Fortnite x Pirates of the Caribbean Cursed Sails

It's time for a treasure hunt.

To complete the entire Pirates of the Caribbean event in Fortnite, you must finish some tricky quests. One of them asks you to destroy the nine false pieces of eight on the island, which is a fairly big undertaking.

Each item needed for this quest is quite small and only found at one specific location. They’re very easy to miss, so here’s how to destroy the nine false pieces of eight on the island in Fortnite.

To destroy the nine false pieces of eight on the island, you must visit nine different spots around the island and destroy some small dolls sitting on the ground. It’s best to use your pickaxe on them, which means breaking them is fairly easy, since you don’t need any additional weapons or tools.

While breaking all nine false pieces of eight is easy, tracking them down is tough. There are:

  • Three false pieces of eight at Pleasant Piazza.
  • Three false pieces of eight at Lavish Lair.
  • Three false pieces of eight at Grand Glacier.

If you’re struggling to find all nine false pieces of eight, here’s a breakdown of what each one looks like and the exact location you need to visit to find them. They are tiny toys, so you must look around carefully to avoid missing them.
