Every week, new quests become available for Fortnite players. These quests are vital for racking up XP for the current battle pass, which means more rewards for dedicated fans. More importantly, quests are unique and fun activities that break the monotony of typical battle royale gameplay. Eager players who are ready to tackle the latest quests in Fortnite will be interested to learn how to complete the swimming time trial at Weeping Woods or Coral Castle.
As the quest details imply, there are two different time trials that will be available as long as the player has the quest. Finding and completing either trial will finalize the objective. Reaching the specified locations without getting shot down by other players is half the challenge. Players who know how to traverse the map quickly and safely will have an easier time completing the swimming time trial quest. The recent addition of the Grappler Bow could be a boon to anyone who finds themselves passing through Stealthy Stronghold on the way to other quest objectives.
The map shown below displays the exact starting locations of the respective swimming time trials. Players need not memorize these locations though. A tall pillar of light will become visible upon approaching the trial location. These lights are even visible while descending from the battle bus, so it should be fairly easy to navigate. When a player reaches the starting point, they will find a hologram of a stopwatch. Interacting with this object will trigger the time trial.
Players who choose to participate in the Weeping Woods time trial will begin from a wooden bridge that passes over the river. Once the trial begins, the player must quickly swim downstream and leap up to interact with the checkpoints along the way. At Coral Castle, the time trial will begin on a beach and direct the player through the surrounding bay. Some players undergoing the time trial may stumble upon the secret quest objective for traveling great distances while swimming.
It should be noted that many other competitors will be populating the areas near the time trial locations. Other players will be eager to complete the quest. Some players will take the opportunity to hunt down unsuspecting questers while their attention is focused on the task. Needless to say, preparation is very important. Newer Fortnite players who are struggling to finish the swimming time trial quest might benefit from brushing up on some basics first.
Fans who complete the swimming time trial at Weeping Woods or Coral Castle will be one step closer to maxing out their season 6 battle pass. Those who hunger for even more XP will be glad to know that many other quests are available, and more are sure to come. Whether it's setting structures on fire or simply ranking high in a match, everything a player does in Fortnite brings them closer to claiming all the skins and other cosmetic rewards that the battle pass offers.
Fortnite is available now on PC, PS4, PS5, Switch, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
