Stone is a valuable material in Fortnite. Be it in Save the World or Battle Royale mode, this resource is always in demand, and for good reason. It's stronger than wood, doesn't catch on fire, and is economically easier to farm than metal.

While it's not the best material, it gets the job done. Speaking of which, the developers need players to gather some Stone from ancient temples in-game. It's unclear why but they are willing to reward those who complete the task with 25,000 experience points.

Things to remember while harvesting Stone in Chapter 3 Season 1

Harvesting Stone is not an uphill task. However, when challenges state that the harvesting must be done in specific locations, things tend to get crazy. Nevertheless, this challenge can be completed in one match.

To ensure that things go smoothly, it's recommended that players do this with a friend. While one player harvests the Stone, the other can keep an eye out for enemies. This will minimize the risk of being ambushed.

At the moment, The Ruins, located on the eastern coast of the island, is the best place to attempt this challenge. It's far from other major named locations, and if at all, not many players should land here.
