The season seven, week seven challenges actually seem pretty simple—none of the tasks appear to be too strenuous, at least on paper. But we’ve found one trick that could help you complete one of the challenges extremely quickly.

One of the premium Battle Pass challenges tasks you with destroying a flying X-4 Stormwing. Planes are obviously very popular in Fortnite season seven, so it shouldn’t be too difficult to find one flying above you. But there’s an even easier way to get this challenge done.

If you find yourself in a safe spot with an X-4 Stormwing nearby, you can pickaxe the plane until it only has 20 health remaining. Then, hop in the plane and fly it straight into the air. Jump out of the X-4 Stormwing, land on the ground, and quickly shoot your unoccupied plane. If you do this correctly and destroy the plane, you’ll complete the challenge.

This trick should be a little easier than the conventional method, since you’d have to rely on finding a plane that’s flying above you and shoot it down before anyone else. So if you get stuck trying to complete this Battle Pass challenge, try out our little trick to quickly destroy a flying X-4 Stormwing.
