In Fortnite's Chapter 6, Season 1, a unique challenge presents players with a choice: embrace or discard the Oni Mask for bonus XP. Unlike typical challenges, this one offers agency. Here's how to navigate this decision.

How to Choose Between Keeping or Discarding the Oni Mask in Fortnite

Oni Masks in Fortnite Chapter 6.The second set of weekly quests introduces a twist. After locating a hidden workshop, visiting Kento, and investigating a portal, players must collect either a Fire Oni Mask or a Void Oni Mask. These masks are readily available throughout matches, making this part straightforward. The challenge lies in the subsequent quest.

Upon acquiring a mask, a new quest prompts you to "decide to use the Mask or rid yourself of it." This seemingly cryptic instruction simply requires you to either utilize the mask's power or remove it from your inventory.

While keeping the mask is an option, using it immediately is recommended. Other players are actively hunting masks, increasing the risk of elimination. Using the mask's power before returning to the lobby ensures you secure the XP without the added challenge of another search.
