How to complete the Fortnite Week 12 legendary quest - Hit An Opponent Within 10 Seconds of Zero Point Dashing

Fortnite Chapter 2 - Season 5 is now in its twelfth week, and players are finding it difficult to complete the legendary quest.

The recent legendary quest added by Epic Games requires players to shoot opponents or deal damage right after consuming a Zero Point crystal.

This seemingly easy trick can be challenging to pull off as Zero Point crystals expire pretty quickly.

YouTuber PerfectScore mentioned a very simple trick in his tutorial video. All Fortnite gamers have to do is consume a Zero Point crystal or a Zero Point fish to successfully start dashing in-game. However, they have to do this outside the storm zone.

This will effectively reduce their HP in-game, but the challenge will get completed automatically. However, gamers will have to keep consuming the Zero Point fish or Zero Point crystals to complete all levels of the legendary challenge.

Alternatively, Fortnite players can also try a direct approach and pick box-fights around the center of the map.

The central area beneath the Zero Point has abundant Zero Point crystals. The trick would be to camp inside the box until the enemy is close.
