In Fortnite Chapter 6, Season 1, a unique challenge offers players a choice, a rarity in typical directive-based quests. This guide explains how to complete the "decide to use the Mask or rid yourself of it" quest.
How to Decide: Mask or No Mask in Fortnite
The second set of weekly quests presents a slight increase in difficulty compared to the previous week's challenges. This involves locating a hidden workshop, multiple visits to Kento, and investigating a Portal. However, the Fire Oni Mask or Void Oni Mask collection challenge is relatively straightforward.
Masks are readily available throughout the game, found in various locations and obtainable from eliminated opponents. Earning the 25k XP reward should be easy. However, a crucial step follows acquisition: don't get eliminated immediately after picking up a mask.
Upon obtaining a mask, the subsequent quest, "decide to use the Mask or rid yourself of it," will appear. The phrasing is intentionally ambiguous, but the solution is simple: either activate the mask's power or discard it from your inventory.

While keeping the mask is an option, using it immediately is recommended. Other players are aggressively pursuing the same objective, and eliminating you for their own mask acquisition is a likely scenario. Therefore, using or discarding the mask promptly prevents the need to search for another in a subsequent match.
This concludes the guide on completing the "decide to use the Mask or rid yourself of it" quest in Fortnite. For further quest assistance, consult our guide on placing Spirit Charms to learn magic.
