How to complete a Hunter SHADOW Briefing in Fortnite Chapter 6, season 4

As you work your way around the island in Fortnite, you’ll come across many special quests you can tackle to earn XP. One of the tougher ones you’ll come across this season asks you to complete a Hunter SHADOW Briefing.

Finding and completing any type of briefing is tough, as they’re not super common around the island, which makes tracking down a specific one a fairly daunting task. If this mission has you stumped, here’s how to complete a Hunter SHADOW Briefing in Fortnite.

Where to find a Hunter SHADOW Briefing in Fortnite

There are no guaranteed spots for Hunter SHADOW Briefings to appear in each round. Instead, some locations are randomly chosen to have one each round, while others aren’t. There are specific SHADOW Briefing spawn locations you can check, but none of them are ever guaranteed to have them, making finding what you’re looking for decently tough.

Although there are no guaranteed spots for this item to appear, you can check out all SHADOW Briefing locations to make narrowing down the process easier. We’ve also highlighted three spots where we’ve come across this specific type of task above, so these are some good spots to start with.

What is a Hunter SHADOW Briefing in Fortnite?

Hunter SHADOW Briefings grant you a weapon with some tracking ammo that lasts for five minutes. During this time, your goal is to deal 300 damage against enemy players to track them. You must target players, not general opponents like bugs or the Queen, to get this mission done.

To finish a Hunter SHADOW Briefing, you need to deal 300 damage against enemy players within five minutes. There are three crucial steps you must work through to get this process done, which are:

• Find a Hunter SHADOW Briefing location around the island.
• Interact with the machine to spend 250 gold bars and start the quest.
• Deal 300 damage against enemy players within five minutes.

Getting this quest done might take you a few rounds or tries, depending on how lucky you are. You need to find both a Hunter SHADOW Briefing and an enemy player, which isn’t always easy to do, so just keep at this one until you manage to get what you need. If possible, try to make sure you know of a nearby enemy before starting this mission to increase your odds of success.

With this quest out of the way, you can move on to tackling other tricky tasks around the island. Next, you might work on talking to Championship Surf Witch about FNCS, completing all Egg-cellent Observations story quests, using an Ascender and a Zipline in the same match, and damaging opponents while in a Hammerhead Choppa to help summon the Pink Ranger.
