How to get Boons in Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 1

There are three ways to get Boons in Fortnite, which are mentioned below.

Defeat a boss

Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 1 has added a bunch of new bosses for you to fight, including Night Rose and Shogun. These two bosses can be found on different spots on the map, and taking them down will require some effort.

However, once you eliminate a boss, you’ll get rewarded with unique items, including a Boon. The drop will be random, so you will get any one of the four Boons.

Interact with a Sprite Shrine

Sprite Shrines are also a new addition to Fortnite, and they can help you get Boons as well.

For this, what you need to do is look around for a Sprite. These Sprites don’t spawn at specific locations, so you will need to keep looking around until you find one.

Once you’ve done that, take the Sprite to a Sprite Shrine and interact with it. The Sprite Shrine’s location will automatically appear on the map after you pick up the Sprite.

After successfully returning the Sprite to the Shrine, you’ll be rewarded based on the type of Sprite you delivered. For example, delivering a Wind Sprite will earn you the Wind Boon.

Loot Elemental Chests

Finally, you can try your luck by looting Elemental Chests. Almost every POI has a few Elemental Chests, and some of them may reward you with a random Boon.
