How To Complete Fortnite Mosted Wanted Quests
So how do Fortnite’s Most Wanted Quests work? Each set of Most Wanted quests will have you completing in-game tasks themed around the event. These tasks can vary, and will refresh when each new set debuts in Fortnite. Each quest you complete earns a certain amount of Infamy, a currency you can use to unlock Most Wanted event rewards.
The Cold Blooded have taken over Battle Royale island during the Most Wanted event. You can locate Cold Blooded bosses in key locations, and kill them to loot Vault Keycards.
Use these Vault Keycards to open special Cold Blooded Vaults. Before you can get inside, you will need to take down the Cold Blooded guards. Once you do, a treasure trove of new Heisted Exotic Weapons can be discovered.
How Do Heat Levels Work in Fortnite Most Wanted?
Experience a new in-game feature while playing Fortnite during the Most Wanted event: Heat Levels. You can view your current Heat Level in the top left corner of your screen.
Depending on your current Heat Level, certain detriments will begin to rack up:

- Cold Blooded members will become more hostile towards you

You can raise your Heat Level in-game by eliminating enemy players and Cold Blooded members, or by opening Cold Blooded vaults. You can view your current Heat Level in the top left corner of your screen. Max out your Heat Level in your match and you will quickly complete this task.
Purchase ten weapons from Ace’s Exotics or Ace’s Armory vending machines:
You can locate Ace’s Exotics and Ace’s Armory vending machines in most key locations in Fortnite Battle Royale Island. Faulty Splits is a fantastic location to drop to find lots of vending machines. Interact with a vending machine to spend gold bars to purchase Exotic and other rarity tier Weapons.
Collect a Vault Keycard dropped by a defeated Cold Blooded Boss:
advertisement
There are three Cold Blooded Bosses you can find during the Most Wanted event, and they only spawn at the same named locations every time.
- Chaos Double Agent (Shattered Slabs)
- Double Agent Hush (Faulty Splits)
- Cold Blooded Ace (Brutal Bastion)
You can also find Double Agent Hush patrolling the lanes at the bowling alley in Faulty Splits, making this Cold Blooded Boss a good place to start.
Visit all three Named Locations containing a Cold Blooded Vault:
Luckily, this task does not require that you open all three Cold Blooded Vaults located in Battle Royale Island. Drop into Shattered Slabs, Faulty Splits, and Brutal Bastion to complete this quest.
Collect 2,000 worth of Gold Bars:
You can find Gold Bars from a couple different sources. Gold Bars may drop from Loot Chests, Cash Registers and Safes, destroying Sofas, or from completing Bounties to eliminate olther enemy players.
Spend Gold Bars on weapons or services in five different matches:
Spend ’em if you got ’em. As you go around collecting Gold Bars for your other Most Wanted quest, be sure to spend them at Ace’s Exotics or Ace’s Armoy vending machines. You can also spend your Gold Bars to hire NPC characters to tick off this quest.
Search four Safes or Cash Registers:
Look for Safes or Cash Registers in named locations on the Battle Royale Island map. Keep an eye out for buildings that resemble businesses (such as stores, gas stations, etc), as these tend to contain Cash Registers inside.
Deal 1,000 damage to opponents using Exotics or Unvaulted weapons:
Keep any eye out for Exotic and Unvaulted weapons as you make your way through your matches. If you find one, keep it in your inventory to deal a bit of damage to try and check off this quest. You can find all the new Exotic Heisted Weapons in Cold Blooded Vaults, and Unvaulted weapons may appear in Loot Chests or floor loot.
advertisement
Collect a Heavy Sniper or Boom Sniper Rifle:
Both the Heavy Sniper and Boom Sniper Rifle have been Unvaulted in Fortnite just in time for the Most Wanted event. These weapons can be discovered from Loot Chests or floor loot.

How to Complete All Fortnite Most Wanted Going in Loud Quests
The second wave of Fortnite’s Most Wanted quests force you to use some items you might not have interacted with often. Here are some quick tips and info on how to complete all the Going in Loud quests:
Destroy 25 structures or objects using Explosives:
You can find Explosives scattered throughout Battle Royale Island from Loot Chests, floor loot, and more. One of the quickest ways to tick off this quest, however, is to obtain the Heisted Explosive Assault Rifle.
This new Heisted weapon will fire explosives with every shot, capable of easily destroying multiple structures or objects in a row. You can find Heisted Explosive Assault Rifles in Cold Blooded Vaults or purchase them from Ace’s Exotics Vending Machines.
Reach Max Heat Level in three different matches:
You can raise your Heat Level in-game by eliminating enemy players and Cold Blooded members, or by opening Cold Blooded vaults. You can view your current Heat Level in the top left corner of your screen. Max out your Heat Level in your match and you will quickly complete this task.
Claim a Named Location containing a Cold Blooded Vault:
advertisement
Visit any Named Location on the Battle Royale Island map and use the Capture Point to « claim » the area. To use the Capture Point, stand in the telegraphed radius of the Capture Point until the flag has risen to the very top of the pole.
Deal 500 damage to opponents within 10 meters with a Shotgun or SMG:
Time to get up close and personal! Keep your eye out for any Shotguns or SMGs as you start looting, and try to shoot your targets from a close distance. Shotguns are a perfect tool for this task, but using hipfire from an SMG will also get the job done.
Hire a character three times:
There’s nothing wrong with hiring a little help. Look for NPCs that can be hired for 100 Gold to be your sidekick for the match. Some hireable NPCs include:
- Aura (north of Brutal Bastion)
- Frozen Red Knight (Brutal Bastion)
- Raptorian the Brave (east of Shattered Slabs)
- Helsie (northwest of Faulty Splits)
- Joni the Red (southwest of Frenzy Fields)
Deal 300 damage to players with a Pistol within a single match:
Pistols might not be your go-to, but should you pick up a Pistol in your looting spree, be sure to hang onto it. Focus on using your Pistol to deal damage to enemy players above all other weapons to tick this quest off. If you are having trouble picking up a pistol, you can also purchase one from a Vending Machine.
Eliminate five members of the Cold Blooded:
You can locate Cold Blooded members in Named Locations with Cold Blooded Vaults: Shattered Slabs, Faulty Splits, and Brutal Bastion. The more Cold Blooded members you eliminate, the higher your heat level will climb. This makes Cold Blooded members more aggressive, so be wary.
Throw and detonate two Gas Cans:
Gas Cans can be found throughout Battle Royale Island, but you are most likely to find a couple around gas stations. When you find a Gas Can, pick it up and throw it onto the ground by holding your primary fire button. Then just shoot the Gas Can with a weapon and watch it catch fire and explode!
Increase your Heat Level by using a Burner Pay Phone:
Burner Pay Phones can be found in most Named Locations, typically along the outside walls of buildings. Interact with one of these pay phones and spend gold to « make a call » in order to compete this quest.
Fortnite Most Wanted Event Rewards
As you complete Fortnite Most Wanted Quests, you will start to rack up some Infamy. This Infamy can be used as a special currency to unlock Most Wanted event rewards!
