Fortnite: How to get the Bobo back bling for free

Halloween is here, and the yearly Fortnitemares event has also made its way into Fortnite. Typically, in a free-to-play game like Fortnite, players have to buy cosmetics with real money. However, the developers tend to become a bit generous and give out free cosmetics items to the players, especially during in-game events, or festivals like Halloween and Christmas.

First of all, its a squad challenge, so if any of your squadmates successfully do it, then you will receive the item for free. However, if you want to do it alone, here is how you get it done easily:

#1 Drop at Camp Cod or any location with an excessive number of fishing pools.

#2 Grab a fishing rod or a harpoon gun to fish near these spots.

#3 Start fishing until you find a legendary fish or weapon from these spots. (Note: Legendary fishes have a lower rate of spawning, however, if you get a thermal fish, that counts as a legendary fish consumption as well)

#4 After finding one legendary fish or item, drop it somewhere safe, like inside a building or a 1 by 1 box.

#5 Now, collect materials, build a high ramp, and jump off it to eliminate yourself in the match.

#6 Come back to the same place you died as a Ghost/Shadow, and consume your hard-earned legendary item.

Just complete the match and you should have the Bobo back bling added to your in-game inventory on Fortnite.
