After having demolished the competition in Fortnite Chapter 1 Season 5, Sledgehammer is all set to make his debut on the island. Though his affinity for spiders is rather disturbing, he's one of the good guys.

Players wanting to know more about spiders and construction tools can begin the Battle Orders questline. A grand total of 150,000 XP can be earned by completing all the challenges.

Cube Monster Parts can be obtained in two ways, opening Sideways chests and defeating Cube Monsters. Players will need to collect 50 to complete this Fortnite Challenge.

Unlike the Caretaker who's overpowered, Boss Cube Monsters can be eliminated with ease. An easy way to complete this task would be to stand on high ground and land headshots on them.
