Fortnite Week 8 challenge: How to blow up a gas pump Epic GamesOne of Fortnite Season 5\u2019s Week 8 challenges will require you to find and blow up a gas pump. Here\u2019s how and where to do it, with a handy location map to help. As with any new week of Fortnite action, there\u2019s a brand new set of weekly challenges for players to complete. Ticking them off will help you earn that all-important XP to level up your Battle Pass and earn some sweet cosmetics. This week, the focus is on farming, with three challenges that require you to visit specific locations to complete farming-related activities, including destroying tomato produce boxes and delivering a truck to Sunflower\u2019s Farm. But there\u2019s also a random challenge that asks you to blow up a gas pump. We\u2019re not sure why anyone would want to do that under normal circumstances, so we\u2019re here to tell you exactly how \u2013 and where \u2013 to do it. How to destroy gas pumps in Fortnite Once you\u2019ve found a gas station with at least one gas pump still standing out the front, you\u2019ll need to destroy it. There are several ways you can do this, so pick your favorite and get to it. The simplest way of doing this is to shoot the gas pump with a weapon. Eventually, after dealing enough damage, it will explode. Make sure there\u2019s enough distance between you so you don\u2019t receive any damage. Here\u2019s how to complete the \u2018Blow up a gas pump\u2019 Fortnite challenge: Exit the Battle Bus and land near a gas station. – Find a weapon nearby. – Put a bit of distance between yourself and the gas pump so you don\u2019t get damaged. – Shoot the gas pump out the front of the station until it explodes. – Success! You\u2019ll earn 20,000 XP if done correctly. – Another method is to drive a vehicle into the gas pump. If you\u2019re lucky, it should explode immediately. Gas stations usually have cars nearby, so this is probably the fastest way to complete the challenge. Where to find gas pumps in Fortnite There are several gas pumps to be found across The Island in Fortnite, so it shouldn\u2019t take you too long to complete this mission as long as you know where to look. Fortunately, we\u2019ve marked the handy map above with the locations of several gas stations you can visit that have gas pumps out the front. You\u2019ll only need to do this once, so pick your favorite place and head there.
