How to defend the Outpost from bug invasions in Fortnite Chapter 6, season 4

One of the many Kickstart missions in Fortnite Chapter 6, season 4 requires you to unlock your Starship Troopers mode and defend the Outpost from bugs.

This particular mission is part of the Sweep and Hold campaign, which is the second of the three Kickstart quest sets. Compared to other quests, the game makes it slightly easier with the location, which might vary. Typically, you'll want to open the map and look for a bug icon. There should be three of them on the map for a given round.

The outpost over here doesn't necessarily mean the Outpost, which is located on the south-east edge of the map. These are different bases that the bugs have captured, and your job is to clear out the hordes.

Once you land, you'll be assigned the objective: clear out 20 bugs. For this, you don't necessarily have to kill the bigger bugs. You can easily target the smaller bugs that can be killed with melee attacks. The entire task of eliminating 20 bugs is pretty straightforward, but you'll have to be careful.

These spots will be active hotspots for players to land. The zones are great for finding OXR weapons as well, which is part of more quests. Hence, heavy enemy fire should be expected at these locations. To complete the objective, you'll have to repeat the process twice.

If you die without killing 20 bugs at one go, you will have to do the entire process once again. Your achievement counts only if you have killed 20 or more bugs at once without being eliminated. To increase your chances of success, it's best to team up with your friends. While some of you should focus on the enemies, others should take care of the bugs. This will help the entire team complete the objective.

Once you repeat and complete the objective for the second time, you will get 15,000 XP, and go one step closer to finishing the first set of Kickstart missions in Fortnite Chapter 6, season 4.
