Steal A Legendary Item From Thorne's Stronghold - Fortnite Quest Guide

Thorne is the main villain of this season, who has taken over the island and built six strongholds to store his valuable items. These strongholds are heavily guarded by cameras and turrets, making it difficult for players to enter and loot them. However, there is a way to sneak in and steal a legendary or better item from Thorne’s Stronghold and escape.

The key to this challenge is to find a Pizza Party item. It is a high-rarity item that can be used to distract the guards and heal yourself and your teammates. You can find this item as floor loot or inside containers, or you can buy one from Piper Pace for 100 gold bars.

Once you have the Pizza Party item, you need to go to one of Thorne’s Strongholds. The map has six strongholds: Sanguine Suites, Mega City, Slappy Shores, Rumble Ruins, Relentless Retreat, and Eclipsed Estate. 

How to Sneak into Stronghold Without Alerting Guards in Fortnite

When you reach a stronghold, you need to throw the Pizza Party item on the ground. This will create a loud noise and attract the attention of the guards. They will leave their posts and go to investigate the source of the noise. This will give you a chance to sneak in and look for a legendary or better item.

Inside the stronghold, you need to look for a legendary or better item. These are the items that have a gold or purple color. They are usually found in chests, safes, or vaults. Be careful not to trigger any alarms or cameras, as they will alert Thorne and his minions.

After finding a legendary or better item, you must escape from the stronghold. You can use a launch pad or a rift to go away quickly. Completing this challenge will reward 25,000 XP and Rep 9 with Piper Pace. You will also unlock a new style for Piper Pace called Piping Hot.
