The new Week 2 Seasonal Quest in Fortnite requires you to hire characters or recruit defeated henchmen. The trick to this quest is to know the location of characters you want to hire.
This guide will show you how to hire characters or recruit defeated henchmen in Fortnite to fulfill the objective and complete the quest.
How to hire Characters in Fortnite and their location
Currently, there are three characters you can hire on the map: Centurion, Aramus, and Ruckus.
We have marked their locations with small arrows in the above image. Find these characters at their designated spots on the map and follow the steps below:
- Approach the characterS and interact with them to hire them.
- Hiring a character requires gold. Make sure you have enough gold before attempting to hire them.
- Note that you can only have one hired character at a time. If you hire a new character, your previously hired character will be dismissed.
How to recruit defeated henchmen in Fortnite
Unfortunately, this option was only available for a limited time at the beginning of the season. Epic Games has since disabled it. If re-enabled, you could recruit defeated henchmen by interacting with them after eliminating them.
Since recruiting defeated henchmen is currently unavailable, the most effective way to complete the quest is by hiring characters. Here’s a step-by-step guide:
- Drop at the location where Centurion is situated.
- Interact with Centurion to hire them.
- Head to the location of Aramus near Grim Gate.
- Interact with Aramus to hire them.
- Once you’ve hired both characters, the quest will be successfully completed.
Keep an eye out for any changes to the game or updates regarding the recruitment of defeated henchmen. If the option becomes available again, you can try that method as well.
