How to complete Fortnite’s Season 2, Week 2 Brutus’ Briefing challenges

Brutus in Fortnite

Epic Games have released a brand new set of Brutus’ Briefing challenges in Fortnite Season 2, and if you want to know how to complete them you have come to the right place. 

The game’s developers have mixed it up once again with Chapter 2’s second season, introducing not just a number of new locations but also NPC characters to protect them as well – with vaults dotted around the map containing some incredible loot.

Aside from taking down Brutus at The Grotto, where he’s holding a Mythic Minigun, there are also a new set of challenges for players to grind their way through and collect some rewards for doing so.

Brutus is just one of many new characters to have been added to Fortnite in Season 2.

This is, of course, the second week of Brutus’ Briefing challenges, with the first including eight missions. This time, though, the list is two tasks longer and therefore includes 10.

As seen here, challenges in Season 2 are going to be very much based on the new characters, all of which can be seen in the new Battle Pass hub in-game. All you have to do is click the Battle Pass table and head over to the Challenges tab, where the full list can be seen in-game for this mission and others from past or present.

There are a number of spots on the map that you will have to visit, including named points of interest such as Craggy Cliffs or Weeping Woods, although many of the missions will require scouting features that can’t be seen by just hovering over the map, like the SHADOW Safe House, Secret Passages and more.

Fortnite Brutus’ Briefing challenges for Week 2, Season 2

  • Find the SHADOW Safe House (x1)
  • Hide in Secret Passages in different matches (x3)
  • Eliminate players using a Shotgun (x3)
  • Carry a Knocked opponent 50m (x50)
  • Deal damage to players from below (x250)
  • Open Chests locked by an ID Scanner (x3)
  • Shakedown Knocked Henchmen in different matches (x3)
  • Eliminate players at Craggy Cliffs or Weeping Woods (x3)
  • Deal damage with Shotguns to players while in the air (x200)
  • Harvest 500 wood, 400 stone, and 300 metal (x3)
Players may choose to visit Weeping Woods to complete one of these challenges.
For completing the challenges, players will receive 40,000XP per challenge they check off, which will be a huge boost in leveling up their Battle Pass for Season 2. The Battle Pass, for those who don’t know, costs 950 V-Bucks in-game ($10/£8).

There’s not only that, though, once Battle Pass owners have reached level 20 and eventually completed 18 of these Brutus challenges, they will be rewarded with new skin style for the character as well.

Previous seasons have arguably been too easy for players, in terms of the challenge difficulty, but this time there’s definitely going to be no complaints from members of the community – based on the contents of the list above. Good luck!
