To begin with this XP method, the entire squad has to land near the Baba Yaga NPC on the map. She can be found in a hut near the former IO base located in the island's southwest corner. The nearest POI is Sludgy Swamp.

Every squad member has to get Baba Yaga's quests. The first quest in her questline requires players to mark a Medkit, a Bandage, and a Small shield potion.

The best place to find these items is an IO chest located under the stairs of the nearby IO base.

The second quest in Baba Yaga's questline requires players to use a vending machine. Before completing this quest, they should use the launchpad near Baba Yaga to reach a fishing spot and catch either a flopper or a slurp fish.

After getting any of the desired fish, the squad members must use the boat in the fishing spot and reach the gas station with a vending machine. They can buy the cheapest items available to complete the quest.

The final task is to get inside the station, search the fruit box, and eat all the consumable items. Players can then leave the game and repeat the procedure as many times as they want.

Fortnite YouTuber Zalltroe showcased the XP method in a recent video:

Why should players farm XP in Fortnite Chapter 2 Season 8 in Squads?

Even though the XP farming method mentioned above can be attempted in Solos, completing it in Squads is highly recommended.

As per YouTuber Zalltroe, the amount of XP players get after doing the method for an hour is based on their team capacity:

  • Solos- 129,600 XP
  • Duos- 259,200 XP
  • Trios- 388,800 XP
  • Squads- 518,400 XP

All in all, it is self-evident that the XP grind in Fortnite Chapter 2 Season 8 is as convenient as it gets. Players who started playing late can also complete their Battle Pass with ease and unlock a wide range of skins, such as Carnage and the Cube Queen.
