Fortnite’s Week 4 challenges are going to send you on more bot-hunting quests. Two challenges this week pit you up against Gatherers, floating bots that spawn randomly throughout the map. One challenge tasks you with destroying Gatherers while a second one needs you to deal damage with a Gatherer’s remains. This guide will show you how to find Gatherers, how to destroy them, and then how to use them as a weapon.
These two challenges leaked early; check back on Thursday to see them live in Fortnite.
What Are Fortnite’s Gatherers?
There are two types of floating robots that you’ll encounter this season. The first is a large one called a Gorger shown in the image above. These bots spawn somewhere on the map and can be located by finding a large red beam that is shooting directly up. Head towards the beam to find a Gorger.
