In Fortnite Chapter 6, Season 1, a unique challenge offers players a choice, a rarity in typical directive-based quests. This guide explains how to complete the "decide to use the Mask or rid yourself of it" challenge.

How to Decide: Use the Mask or Discard It

The second set of weekly quests presents a slight twist. After locating a hidden workshop, visiting Kento twice, and investigating a portal, players must collect either a Fire Oni Mask or a Void Oni Mask. These masks are readily available throughout matches, making this part of the challenge relatively easy. The 25,000 XP reward is easily attainable. However, the subsequent quest requires a crucial step before exiting the match.

Upon acquiring a mask, a new quest prompts you to "decide to use the Mask or rid yourself of it." This phrasing might seem ambiguous, but the solution is straightforward: either activate the mask's power or remove it from your inventory.

While you can choose to keep the mask, using its ability immediately is recommended. Other players are actively competing for masks, increasing the risk of elimination. Activating the mask’s power preemptively avoids the need to search for another in a subsequent match.

This concludes the guide on completing the "decide to use the Mask or rid yourself of it" challenge. For further quest assistance, see our guide on placing Spirit Charms to learn about magic.
