To search containers at Wasteland Landmarks for the Welcome to the Wasteland quest series in Fortnite, you need to find and open 10 containers at these locations. You can open chests, ammo boxes, and produce boxes to make progress in this task.

It doesn’t matter whether you open all 10 at the same spot or venture around to multiple Wasteland Landmarks. This task can also be completed in just one match or over the course of a few matches depending on how long it takes you to find enough containers to open.

Opening containers is the easy part of this quest, but actually locating Wasteland Landmarks can be tricky. Luckily for gamers, there are many different ones you can choose from.

  • One north of Sandy Steppes.

These spots all have at least a couple of containers you can claim loot from for this task. Most of them also have vehicles and vehicle mods you can apply, which makes them great places to loot early on if you want to work on enhancing a vehicle.

The loot you find at Wasteland Landmarks around the map is pretty solid, which helps you gear up so you can go take on bosses for Mythic weapons and Medallions. They’re all located fairly close to where the bosses usually spawn, which gives you the perfect means to quickly grab loot and start battling them right after.

Successfully searching a total of 10 containers at Wasteland Landmarks earns you 15,000 XP. This is quite a lot for fairly low effort, so make sure you get this one done if you’re hoping to claim more battle pass rewards.
