#1 Makeshift weapon elimination

Players need to eliminate an enemy with a makeshift weapon. Makeshift weapons are available as random floor loot in Fortnite.

#3 Mechanical weapon elimination

Like primal weapons, mechanical weapons are also available as random floor loot in Fortnite season 6. They can also be crafted from makeshift weapons by combining them with mechanical parts. Mechanical parts can be harvested from vehicles around the island or can be obtained from NPCs like Sparkplug. Mechanical weapons have better accuracy than primal weapons. Eliminating a player with a mechanical weapon will complete this Fortnite week 7 challenge.

#4 Mark weapons of different rarity

Weapons of different rarity are available all over the island in Fortnite. To complete this challenge, players need to mark a weapon for their teammates. This is probably one of the easiest and most straightforward challenges in Fortnite Season 6.

Foraged items usually refer to all the different vegetables that players can come across on the map. The best area to complete this Fortnite week 7 challenge would be Colossal Crops because many veggies can be found here.

#7 Hunt Raptors

This Fortnite week 7 challenge may be one of the toughest. Not only are the Raptors fast, but they're also massive bullet sponges. As a result, players will need to deal with caution while hunting raptors in Fortnite season 6. Luring them with meat and then eliminating them with an explosive bow may be one of the best ways to hunt raptors in Fortnite season 6 quickly.

This is the list of the Fortnite week 7 challenges. Completing them is fairly simple too. Completing all the Fortnite week 7 challenges is a must for those who wish to max out their battle pass in no time.
