In Fortnite Chapter 6, Season 1, a unique challenge offers players a choice, a rarity in the game's typical directive-based quests. This challenge involves the Oni Masks, requiring players to decide whether to keep or discard the mask after acquiring it.

How to Decide: Keep or Discard the Oni Mask in Fortnite

The second set of weekly quests presents a slightly more complex challenge than its predecessor. Players must locate a hidden workshop, visit Kento twice, and investigate a portal. However, the Oni Mask collection is straightforward: find either a Fire Oni Mask or a Void Oni Mask.

Masks are readily available throughout the game, often found in various locations and dropped by eliminated opponents. Earning the 25k XP reward should be relatively easy. However, the challenge's ambiguity lies in the next step: "decide to use the Mask or rid yourself of it."

This simply means either activating the mask's power or removing it from your inventory. The choice is yours.

While you can choose to keep the mask, it's advisable to use its power immediately. Other players are actively seeking masks to complete the same challenge, making you a potential target. Using the mask promptly minimizes the risk of elimination and the need to search for another mask in a subsequent match.

That's how to navigate the "decide to use the Mask or rid yourself of it" challenge in Fortnite. For additional quest guides, learn how to strategically place Spirit Charms to unlock magical insights.
