How To Track Traces of the Comet in the Mountains in Fortnite

Uncover the Comet's Secrets: Completing Fortnite's Mountain Traces Challenge

Fortnite's latest Story Quests delve into the mystery of a comet, presenting players with a series of challenges. While many are straightforward, locating comet traces in the mountains requires a strategic approach. This guide outlines the most efficient method to complete this challenging quest.

The Spirit Realm Quests' third stage directs players to find three comet traces within a mountainous region southwest of the map. To maximize efficiency, focus on the mountain just south of Warrior's Watch. This location conveniently clusters two traces on the mountain behind the POI and a third on a nearby peak.

Due to the high XP rewards associated with these quests, many players simultaneously undertake this challenge. Landing directly on the mountain at the game's start is ill-advised. Instead, begin at Warrior's Watch to gather loot and prepare. The comet traces remain accessible throughout the match.

Locating the traces requires close proximity. They emit a faint white glow, marked by a magnifying glass icon. Utilize your map to pinpoint each trace's location and set markers to avoid getting lost or encountering unexpected combat.
