How to find and damage Overlord Spires and Scout Spires in Fortnite Chapter 6, season 3

Daigo’s corruption is attempting to take over the island, and it’s up to you to stop him in Fortnite. One of the primary ways you can combat this issue is by finding and damaging both Overlord Spires and Scout Spires.

These special Spires present pretty daunting combat challenges for you to tackle. Interacting with them is essential for various quests, and they also offer some fairly solid rewards for your efforts. Here’s how to find and damage Overlord Spires and Scout Spires in Fortnite.

Where to find Overlord Spires in Fortnite

Only one Overlord Spire appears on the island in each match, and it’s marked on the map by a large white diamond-like icon surrounded by light purple mist. The precise location of the Overlord Spire varies in each round, so the only way to find it is to check the map. The icon is easy to spot once you know what you’re looking for.

The Overlord Spire lands at the location marked on the map as soon as a player enters the nearby area. It might take a few seconds to fully land on the ground, but it always appears fairly quickly.

Where to find Scout Spires in Fortnite

Around five or so Scout Spires appear in each round, and they’re all marked by a small diamond-like icon on the map. This icon has a similar shape to the Overlord Spire one, but a lot smaller. Scout Spires also spawn randomly across the island in each round, so you need to check the map to track them down.

How to damage Overlord Spires in Fortnite

Overlord Spires are the more dangerous and deadly combat trials of the two, so never approach this challenge without a solid collection of loot to back you up. Once you’re ready to take it on, focus on aiming for the glowing yellow spots on the Spire. These are weak points that drain the Spires’ health much more quickly.

The Overlord Spire takes damage regardless of where you shoot at it, so just keep striking it with everything you’ve got until the health bar is depleted. It has a few protective measures you should watch out for, though, including a deadly laser that targets you and some demon guards who spawn in and fight to protect it. Consider fighting it with friends or purchasing a hireable NPC if you need some help taking it down.

How to damage Scout Spires in Fortnite

Scout Spires can be damaged by attacking any part of them, although aiming for the face is the best way to deal lots of damage quickly. The face is a weak point, so any attacks you aim at it will drain the health bar more quickly.

All Scout Spires are essentially smaller and weaker versions of the Overlord Spire, so if you’ve faced the latter, taking on these should be no challenge at all. These trials also have a laser attack, although it’s much smaller, and demon guards who will appear to defend it.

What do Overlord Spires and Scout Spires drop in Fortnite?

The loot you get from Overlord Spires and Scout Spires generally varies in each match. Here’s a breakdown of what types of items you can expect to earn for your efforts.

• Overlord Spires always drop one Unstable Exotic Weapon and also usually drop some Legendary weapons, Epic weapons, consumables, ammo, and gold bars.

There’s plenty more to get done this season, so when you’re done battling Spires, you might move on to work on acquiring the Wingshot Grappler or finding and opening the Suitcase of Patience.
