How To Throw Holiday Presents At Different Named Locations In Fortnite Winterfest 2022
Here is a step-by-step guide on completing the challenge, so check it out:
1) Search For Holiday Presents
Holiday Presents are a part of the Fortnite Winterfest 2022 festivities, which implies that they can only be found at locations that consist of tons of snow. However, this is not true at all, as these Holiday Presents can be easily found all over the map in Floor Loot.
They can spawn in every corner and place on the island, but unfortunately, there is no way to highlight them on the map. You will have to keep a lookout for these presents or play in a squad to increase your chances of finding one. Once you find a Holiday Present, you are required to pick it up and store it in your inventory.
2) Go To A Named Location
Players will have to travel long distances to go to a named location depending on where the Holiday Present is found. It would be good for players if they avoid POIs like the Faulty Splits, Brutal Bastion, and The Citadel.
This is because these locations are the ones most-visited by players, so there is an increasingly high chance that your enemies might kill you before you can even throw the Holiday Present.
The best thing players can do is to find a vehicle and use it to safely reach the named locations like Anvil Square, Slappy Shores, Lonely Labs, and Breakwater Bay. It might be quite time-taking to get there, depending on how far away a player is, but it is a much safer option.
3) Throw The Holiday Presents
Once you reach the named location, select the Holiday Present from your inventory and throw it like you would throw a regular throwable item. The Present will deploy as soon as it touches the ground and will expand to take up some tile space.
After that, players can easily break it open using their Harvesting Tool to collect the weapons and items inside it. Repeat the same task two more times to complete the Winterfest 2022 challenge and gain 16,000 experience points.
Tips For Using The Holiday Presents
Although a Holiday Present is mainly used to collect loot, it can also be used in many other useful ways. As an example, players can throw Holiday Presents on themselves to gain instant cover or onto their enemies to block them.
Players can also use a Holiday Present to gain the high ground in many specific situations and develop platforms for vertical movement. In case your enemies are attempting to rush with the help of a vehicle, you can throw a Holiday Present to stop them in their tracks.
Although you must remember that in case the vehicle has been modded with a Cow Catcher, a Holiday Present will fail to stop it. On the other hand, players can still use it as a platform to jump up on to prevent themselves from getting hit by the incoming vehicle.
In addition, players can also use a Holiday Present to block off certain pathways during a fight or block the entrance to buildings. This gives players some extra time and/or tactical superiority as their enemies must either break through them to move to the other side or climb to the top and risk becoming an easy target.
