The Fortnite seas have been raided by pirates, and with the Fortnite x Pirates of the Caribbean event comes a treasure trove of quests, including the mysterious Pirate Code Eight questline. One particular challenge has players scratching their heads: visiting Davy Jones’ Locker. If you’re aiming to complete this quest, earn Cursed Gold, and snag that coveted Jack’s Ship glider, you’re in the right place. Let’s dive deep and uncover the secret of Davy Jones’ Locker in Fortnite.
Unlocking the Mystery of Davy Jones’ Locker in Fortnite
Forget scouring the map for a hidden location marked “Davy Jones’ Locker.” The truth, savvy Fortnite adventurer, is far simpler and perhaps a bit more…final.
To visit Davy Jones’ Locker in Fortnite, you simply need to be eliminated from a match.
Yes, you read that right. Davy Jones’ Locker isn’t a place you explore while alive and kicking. It’s a nod to the legendary Pirates of the Caribbean films, representing the watery grave where pirates end up when their time is up. In Fortnite terms, it’s what happens when you get knocked out of a match.
This Pirate Code Eight challenge isn’t about exploration; it’s about, well, meeting your end in the game. How you choose to meet that end is entirely up to you, offering a darkly humorous twist to your questing.
Charting Your Course to Davy Jones’ Locker: Getting Eliminated
Now that you know the somewhat anticlimactic secret, how do you efficiently “visit” Davy Jones’ Locker and tick off this quest? You have a couple of options, depending on your play style and patience.
Option 1: Play it Cool and Let Fate Decide
If you’re engrossed in completing other Pirate Code quests or simply enjoying a regular match of Fortnite, you can just play as you normally would. Engage in battles, explore the map, and naturally, at some point, an opponent will likely get the better of you. Consider it a scenic route to Davy Jones’ Locker, filled with the usual Fortnite action. You might even be so focused on other objectives that a Victory Royale slips through your fingers anyway!
Option 2: Fast Track to the Depths
For those who prefer a more direct approach and want to complete this quest swiftly, there are quicker methods to reach Davy Jones’ Locker. If you’re in a hurry to move on and chase those Victory Royales again, consider these strategies:
- Drop into Hotspots: Land in densely populated areas like Tilted Towers or Retail Row right at the start of a match. The increased player density means you’re more likely to encounter opponents quickly and find yourself in a battle that might lead to your elimination.
- Seek Out the Flames: While perhaps less conventional in typical gameplay, if you’re truly aiming for speed, you could locate a campfire. As demonstrated in helpful online videos, campfires can be used (or rather, misused) to eliminate yourself. This is a deliberately quick way to complete the quest if you’re so inclined.
No matter which method you choose, remember the goal: elimination. Once you’ve been eliminated in a match, you’ll have successfully visited Davy Jones’ Locker in Fortnite and completed the Pirate Code Eight challenge.
Rewards Await in the Depths
Visiting Davy Jones’ Locker, while sounding grim, is actually quite rewarding! Completing this quest grants you a valuable 5,000 XP, boosting your Battle Pass progress. More importantly, it brings you closer to earning Cursed Gold, essential for progressing through the Cursed Sails battle pass, and ultimately unlocking the grand prize: the Jack’s Ship glider.
So, set sail, brave pirate, embrace the inevitable, and take a trip to Davy Jones’ Locker. It’s a necessary voyage on your path to Fortnite pirate glory!
