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 some challenges are straightforward, like dealing damage at various POIs, one presents a greater hurdle: locating comet traces within a mountainous region. This guide provides a streamlined approach to completing this challenge.

The Spirit Realm Quests' third stage requires finding three out of seven comet traces in the southwest mountains. For maximum efficiency, focus on the mountain directly south of Warrior's Watch. This area conveniently clusters two traces on the mountain behind the POI, and another nearby on a separate peak.

Due to the high XP rewards associated with these quests, these locations are often crowded. Avoid landing directly on the mountain at the game's start. Instead, land at Warrior's Watch, gather loot, and then proceed to the mountain. The traces remain accessible throughout the match.

Locating the traces requires proximity. They subtly glow white and display a magnifying glass icon only at close range. Use your map to mark your target, preventing disorientation and unexpected combat before completing the challenge.
