All around the island in Fortnite, there are some special missions you can tackle to claim rewards. These quests are called SHADOW Briefings, and they can be decently tricky to track down.
Finishing these tasks is not only a great way to quickly earn some loot but also essential for certain quests. To get them done, you need to know all SHADOW Briefing locations in Fortnite Chapter Six, season four.

All SHADOW Briefing types in Fortnite

There are three unique types of SHADOW Briefings you may come across while exploring the island. The exact task you need to complete for them varies depending on which one you find, and all SHADOW Briefing locations only have one of the three job types available for you to get done.
- Plunder – Spawns two buried treasure chests nearby, both of which are marked by a yellow circle on the map. You must find and open them within five minutes to finish this quest.
- Armory – Spawns a supply drop nearby. Find and open it within five minutes to finish this mission.
- Supply drop – Receive a weapon and complete the mission associated with it within five minutes. All quests ask you to damage players with some extra modifiers depending on the weapon you are given by the machine.
How to complete SHADOW Briefings in Fortnite
To complete a SHADOW Briefing, you need to find and activate one, then complete the associated task within five minutes. The exact mission you need to work on varies with each type, but you always have to get the goal done within five minutes of starting it.
If you come across a quest asking you to tackle some SHADOW Briefings, I recommend sticking to Plunder or Armory tasks. These two versions are generally the easiest to get done since you don't have to hunt down an enemy player and risk dying to get it done.

After you're done tackling SHADOW Briefings, you can move on to other key tasks around the island. Next, you might work on all Welcome to the Infestation quests, finding and opening OXR Bunkers, collecting items from Hive Stashes, and discovering the swarm’s access point to the island.
