One of Fortnite's latest quest challenges tasks players with destroying hiding places, and this guide shows an easy method to do it.

Fortnite's latest epic quests for Week 4 are now live, bringing a fresh set of challenges for players to tackle in exchange for large amounts of XP. This week it would seem that the developers want players out in the open, as one quest requires players to destroy hiding places.

The first month of the battle royale title's seventh season is now in the books. Essentially the inverse of Season 6's primal theming, the new season has introduced an array of high-tech alien weaponry. More recently, developer Epic Games introduced the abductors, which grant access to the giant hovering mothership, as well as invasive alien parasites, which increase mobility while sapping health.

Unlike the confusing verbiage with this week's forage for food quest, this particular challenge is completely straightforward; destroying different hiding places. Rather than a "hiding spot" like a bush or behind a tree, hiding places in this sense refer to the handful of objects players can interact with to completely conceal themselves, including port-o-pottys, hay bales, and dumpsters. While finding at least one of these is a fairly easy task at the majority of Fortnite's named locations, destroying all three in a single match can prove difficult, if one doesn't know exactly where to look.

Several prominent Fortnite YouTubers have found the most efficient POI to drop in at for this quest is Pleasant Park. As demonstrated by Fortnite Events, players will want to land specifically behind the gas station found in the middle of the eastern edge of the location. A dumpster will be there, followed by a port-o-potty just around the corner of the building when players head to the right. From there, grab a car (if available) and head past where one of last week's welcome signs were placed to the east edge of the soccer field, where another dumpster can be found up against the stone foundation of the blue multi-story house. Once three hiding places have been destroyed, the quest will be completed.

Pleasant Park tends to be a popular landing spot, and with this quest freshly released, there's likely stiff competition to destroy the same hiding places. Fortunately there's an alternate, arguably even more effective spot to complete this Fortnite quest. Players can also land at the base camp on the mountain just southwest of Catty Corner. One of the small structures there contains a trio of port-o-pottys right next to each other, able to be destroyed in a matter of seconds. However, loot is extremely limited in the immediate area, meaning landing even mere seconds after someone else spells an almost certain doom.

Those who manage to complete this quest will be rewarded with 30,000 XP. Players who've already completed the standard Fortnite quests can opt to tackle the Pro 100 LTM, one of the modes required to complete some of the latest Cosmic Summer quests.

Fortnite is free-to-play for PC, PS4, PS5, Switch, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
