Updated January 14, 2025, to include the recently added Melee Expertise Quests.

Understanding Weapon Expertise Quests

Weapon Expertise Quests are unique to Fortnite Hunters, initiated by speaking to Hope, Ruji, Agent Jones, or Daigo about Expertise and weapon sales. Each quest involves five challenges, unlocking a Legendary weapon upon completion. Currently, available weapons include the Fury Assault Rifle, Oni Shotgun, Surgefire SMG, Void and Fire Oni Masks, and the Typhoon Blade. Progress can be tracked via the in-game Quests tab. While passively achievable, completing these quests offers substantial rewards.
