I dropped into Heatwave Harbor, heard a distant extraction alarm, and watched three squads rush the same Sprite. My glider almost clipped the cliff as I realized I’d missed the slide shot that would have finished the kill. That moment—half panic, half grin—tells you everything about Week 1.
I’ve been grinding Chapter 7 seasons since the first rift. I’ll point out what matters, where the traps hide, and how to close quests fast so your Battle Pass moves. The map is a chessboard—every landing, boost, and hire changes the next five moves.
How to complete Week 1 Kickstart quests in Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 3
You can already overhear strategy in any lobby: “We’ll hit Battlewoods then rift.” That’s your opening gambit.
Kickstart gives eight bite-sized tasks that stack XP fast. Play aggressive on the first drop, save one or two rounds to finish any locations you miss, and treat each Sprite or boss as a mini-objective rather than a momentary distraction.
| Task | How to Complete |
|---|---|
| Land at The Battlewoods, Calamari Canyon, and Heatwave Harbor to tap into the unstable reality waves | You can either complete this by using rifts to glide to all the locations in the same round or finish it in three rounds. |
| Deal 150 damage to opponents with style while using Seven Sliders | The Seven Sliders is a new item that can be found in chests. You have to aim and shoot at other players while performing a slide, which will meet the ‘style’ requirement. |
| Deploy the glider 3 times within 25 meters of the ground | Press the jump button twice in quick succession while you fall to the ground. |
| Eliminate 5 players while equipped with a Sprite | Just begin rounds with a Sprite equipped. |
| Hit 50 opponents with the Chaos Exploder Rifle | The Chaos Exploder Rifle can be obtained from chests, or you can purchase it directly from a Vending Machine. You have to hit 50 different enemy NPCs/ opponents. |
| Deal 750 damage to bosses | Find a boss (highlighted by the skull icon) and then deal 760 damage. |
| Collect 3 weapons with a hired specialist | Hire a specialist NPC with gold, and then get at least three different weapons. |
| Travel 500 distance while boosting in a vehicle | Find a vehicle, and boost it while driving on the map. |
Each Kickstart task nets 12,000 seasonal XP toward the Battle Pass. Epic’s seasonal loop hands an extra 25,000 XP for every four quests you complete, so grouping tasks is the fastest path to levels. If you’re tracking on Discord or watching creator uploads on YouTube, prioritize rows that you can finish in a single match.
How do I complete Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 3 weekly quests?
Start with landing choices, then chain objectives within matches. Use rifts to hop locations, carry a Sprite when you want collectible-based tasks, and buy or chest-search for the Chaos Exploder Rifle and Seven Sliders.
How to complete Sprite Safari quests in Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 3
Even casual lobbies will show you Extraction Sites glowing on the map; they pull players like a magnet. Treat Sprite work as steady XP rather than a single hot-drop gamble.
Sprite Safari contains five tasks that reward 10,000 seasonal XP apiece. Play measured: equip a Sprite before match start for the enter-match objective, and focus on extraction loops to accumulate Sprite XP.
| Task | How to Complete |
|---|---|
| Extract 10 Sprites to expand your portfolio | You have to first locate vacant Extraction Sites spread all around the island. Then place the Sprite from your backpack and complete the extraction. Do these for 10 Sprites. |
| Enter 5 matches with a Sprite equipped | Equip a Sprite before you begin a round, and start five matches in this fashion. |
| Earn 2,500 Sprite XP by eliminating opponents, opening chests, and extracting Sprites | Kill enemies, open chests, and extract Sprites while having a separate Sprite in your backpack. Help it get 2,500 XP from these activities. |
| Purchase something from a Sprite Station with Sprite Dust | Once you get enough Sprite Dust, use it to purchase an upgrade from the Sprite Station. |
| Activate an Extraction Site | Start a new round and activate the Extraction Site for the first time. |
Where are Extraction Sites for Sprite Safari?
They sit at fixed map points that pulse on your HUD. Open the map at match start, mark the nearest vacant site, and move there before squads crowd the zone; timing wins more extractions than firepower.
What rewards do weekly quests give in Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 3?
Kickstart tasks: 12,000 seasonal XP each + 25,000 XP for every four completed. Sprite Safari tasks: 10,000 seasonal XP each. That XP directly fuels Battle Pass tiers—yes, the Battle Pass costs $9.99 (€10) for the base track if you’re buying tiers from Epic Games.
If you want a simple rule: group tasks you can do within a single match and always end the match with an extraction or a boss engagement when possible. Quests are coins feeding the battle-pass machine, so your goal is efficient loops not flashy plays.
