A new batch of “This Week” Quests is now available inFortnite, and one of them instructs players to travel distance using Kinetic Ore. While many fans will already be very familiar with how to travel by way of Kinetic Ore, they may be unaware of a strategy that can be used to maximize the distance that is traversed. This guide is here to detail that strategy and help players quickly travel distance using Kinetic Ore inFortnite.
Fortnite: Travel Distance Using Kinetic Ore
The first step toward completing this quest is to head toShattered Slabs, a named location in the southwest quadrant ofFortnite’s map. To make reaching this location as easy as possible, its precise position has been marked on the map that is below, and players will find a number of large blue rocks scattered around it.

Upon locating one of these blue rocks,Fortniteplayersshould position themselves directly next to it, face the Ore, andaim the camera in an upward direction. Fans should then start striking the Kinetic Ore with their Harvesting Tools, making sure to keep their cameras pointed above the rock, to cause a vortex to emerge from it. This vortex will be ready to use after approximately ten strikes have been applied to the rock, and it is at that point that jumping on top of the Ore will send the player flying.
For thoseplayers that are curious as to why it is important to point the camera above the Kinetic Ore before striking it, the camera’s position ultimately determines the direction in which fans will travel when they jump upon the Ore. Players that use this information to consistently gain an upward push from the rocks atFortnite’s Shattered Slabswill travel much further than fans that do not and should thus complete the challenge more quickly.
That said, players should not expect to finish the “travel distance using Kinetic Ore” quest in a single launch, even if they employ the strategy that has just been detailed. Indeed, fans will need to travel on numerous Kinetic Ores before everything is said and done, and they should plan to work on this quest over the course of several matches. Fortunately, there is quite a bit of XP to be earned from this quest, which will serve to keep players that are progressing throughFortnite’s Chapter 4 Season 1 Battle Passinvested in completing it.
Fortniteis available now on PC, PS4, PS5, Switch, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, and mobile devices.
