Fortnite: All Wanted Midas quests and how to complete them

Fortnite's Wanted quest line during Chapter 6, Season 2 is about draining Fletcher Kane's resources and preventing him from dominating the world. While most missions specifically targeted him, Midas' series dives deeper into the world and events from previous seasons. Here's a complete guide to finishing Fortnite's Wanted: Midas quests. Fortnite Wanted: Midas quest walkthrough After completing Joss' missions and the Outlaw Keycard community quest, you'll receive a basic keycard and Midas' quest series. Rather than breaking into more of Fletcher Kane's vaults and robbing him of everything he's worth, you'll instead learn more about last season's events and their lingering effects, particularly when it comes to magical energy. That said, here's a complete list of all six Fortnite's Wanted: Midas stages and how to finish them: Stage One Midas doesn't fully trust our character to carry out his work and seek out the other outlaws. Because of this, our first objective is to complete a Shadow Briefing and earn his trust before anything else.

They appear as terminals on your map in most landmarks, particularly in Shiny Shafts, Foxy Floodgate, Seaport City, and Shogun's Solitude. You can also find them in unmarked locations near major POIs. There are 21 potential spawn spots for Shadow Briefings, but only 10 or so will appear per round. Unlike regular quests, Shadow Briefings are timed objectives you have to complete within a few minutes. Fortunately, they're designed to be somewhat easy to complete in this timeframe as long as you're proactive in searching for enemy players and finishing your goal. Once you complete a Shadow Briefing, Midas will begin to trust you, letting you move on to the next stage. Stage Two Although Midas is closer to trusting you, you must also convince the other outlaws you're on their side. To do this, you'll have to head to any Black Market around Fortnite's map and spend 1,000 bars. What you buy is entirely up to you, but buying a weapon or two is the quickest way to finish this.

It doesn't matter which you visit, but each spot has different wares to help you during your matches. Otherwise, you can go wherever you wish and buy enough to complete the quest goal. Stage Three Midas and the other outlaws now trust you enough to tell you more about their plan. However, you have one more roadblock to get past: Outlaw Keycards. Before advancing further, you'll need to unlock a rare quality Outlaw Keycard by spending bars, robbing vaults, and eliminating bosses or guards throughout your Fortnite matches. You can find your progress by heading into your quest list and selecting Outlaw Keycard. Screenshot by Destructoid The objectives you complete are entirely up to you. My strategy was to finish all five tiers of Midas' "Spend Bars" task before robbing a few vaults and using Dill Bits to buy Boons from Black Markets. I finished a few stages of Skillet's Rob Vaults task and almost every Medallion stage. Along the way, I barely defeated enough guards to knock out a stage of Keisha's task, giving me the rare keycard. Once you obtain a rare quality keycard, head to any Black Market backrooms and unlock their Outlaw Chest to finish the quest task. Stage Four With another challenging task out of the way, it's time to equip a special sensor backpack and scan mysterious energy signatures that originated from the first half of this season. You'll find the backpack south of Crime City inside a blue crate.

As you approach them, you'll find flowy blue energy in the air you can interact with to advance through the quest. Collect all three to finish Midas' fourth quest stage. Stage Five Now that you've scanned some mysterious energy signatures, it's time to revisit a location from previous Wanted quests. Your destination is an underground base in Masked Meadows, where you'll find a mask-making book on the floor in front of a lamp.

They'll look like large holes you can enter using a pulley, leading to tunnel systems connected to this location. From here, it's just a matter of following the white exclamation mark icon until you find the book. Stage Six Scanning energy signatures and reading this book will reveal information about a Zero Point Shard that Midas is interested in hearing about. With everything else out of the way, head to the Black Market area north of Masked Meadows and south of Seaport City to find Mid

Fortnite: All Wanted Midas quests and how to complete them

Fortnite's Wanted quest line during Chapter 6, Season 2 is about draining Fletcher Kane's resources and preventing him from dominating the world. While most missions specifically targeted him, Midas' series dives deeper into the world and events from previous seasons. Here's a complete guide to finishing Fortnite's Wanted: Midas quests.

After completing Joss' missions and the Outlaw Keycard community quest, you'll receive a basic keycard and Midas' quest series. Rather than breaking into more of Fletcher Kane's vaults and robbing him of everything he's worth, you'll instead learn more about last season's events and their lingering effects, particularly when it comes to magical energy.

That said, here's a complete list of all six Fortnite's Wanted: Midas stages and how to finish them:

Stage One

Midas doesn't fully trust our character to carry out his work and seek out the other outlaws. Because of this, our first objective is to complete a Shadow Briefing and earn his trust before anything else.

Shadow Briefings are mini objectives you can complete in your matches for rewards. They appear as terminals on your map in most landmarks, particularly in Shiny Shafts, Foxy Floodgate, Seaport City, and Shogun's Solitude. You can also find them in unmarked locations near major POIs. There are 21 potential spawn spots for Shadow Briefings, but only 10 or so will appear per round.

Fortunately, they're designed to be somewhat easy to complete in this timeframe as long as you're proactive in searching for enemy players and finishing your goal. Once you complete a Shadow Briefing, Midas will begin to trust you, letting you move on to the next stage.

Stage Two

Although Midas is closer to trusting you, you must also convince the other outlaws you're on their side. To do this, you'll have to head to any Black Market around Fortnite's map and spend 1,000 bars. What you buy is entirely up to you, but buying a weapon or two is the quickest way to finish this.

Midas and the other outlaws now trust you enough to tell you more about their plan. However, you have one more roadblock to get past: Outlaw Keycards. Before advancing further, you'll need to unlock a rare quality Outlaw Keycard by spending bars, robbing vaults, and eliminating bosses or guards throughout your Fortnite matches. You can find your progress by heading into your quest list and selecting Outlaw Keycard.

Stage Five

Now that you've scanned some mysterious energy signatures, it's time to revisit a location from previous Wanted quests. Your destination is an underground base in Masked Meadows, where you'll find a mask-making book on the floor in front of a lamp.

If you're unfamiliar with this location, you can find it by heading down one of the underground tunnel entrances around Masked Meadows. They'll look like large holes you can enter using a pulley, leading to tunnel systems connected to this location. From here, it's just a matter of following the white exclamation mark icon until you find the book.

Stage Six

Scanning energy signatures and reading this book will reveal information about a Zero Point Shard that Midas is interested in hearing about. With everything else out of the way, head to the Black Market area north of Masked Meadows and south of Seaport City to find Midas inside its backrooms. Talk to him about the Zero Point Shard to complete his Wanted quest series, which will give you a bunch of account XP and bring you one step closer to learning more about Fortnite's world.
