Fortnite: Track Comet Traces in Mountains Guide

Authore: CamilaUpdate:May 24,2025

The latest Story Quests in *Fortnite* are here, and they’re all about investigating a comet. While some challenges are straightforward, like damaging opponents at different Points of Interest (POIs), tracking traces of the comet in the mountains can be trickier. Here’s how to efficiently complete this challenge in *Fortnite* Chapter 6.

How to Track Traces of the Comet in the Mountains in Fortnite Chapter 6

Map locations for traces of the comet in Fortnite.

When you reach the third stage of The Spirit Realm Quests, it might feel overwhelming. You're tasked with finding traces of a mysterious comet in a mountain range located on the southwest side of the map. Fortunately, you only need to interact with three out of the seven available spots to complete the challenge. The key is efficiency, aiming to hit all three spots in one go.

The best strategy is to head to the mountain just south of Warrior’s Watch. You'll find two interaction spots on the mountain directly behind the POI, and another on a nearby peak. However, due to the high XP rewards from these Story Quests, many players will be attempting the challenge simultaneously, making it risky to land on the mountain at the start of the game. Instead, land at Warrior’s Watch, spend some time looting, and then make your way to the mountain. Remember, the comet traces in *Fortnite* will still be there waiting for you.

Finding the locations can be challenging as they only become visible when you're close—look for a glowing white spot with a magnifying glass icon above it. Use your map to set markers on the traces you're heading towards, ensuring you don't get lost or caught in a fight before completing the challenge.
