How to deal 500 Explosive Damage to Opponents or Structures in Fortnite

The easiest way to deal 500 explosive damage to opponents or structures is to utilize the new UFOs you see flying around the island. You can easily take one down by securing a weapon and shooting at them. When the health bar drops low enough, they should come in for a landing. Sometimes, an enemy will come out of them and try to take you down, so be prepared for that.

When a UFO is on the ground, walk up to it and look at the pilot area. Use your interact key to hop into it and start flying around. The UFO has a primary attack that counts as explosive damage, so you can left-click or press R1 to use this attack on enemies and structures. It does quite a bit of damage, and an easy way to knock this one out is by blasting down some enemy structures.

To recap, you’ll want to grab yourself a UFO, fly around and locate an enemy player, and take them down using the UFO’s secondary attack. As you begin reigning down lasers from the sky, the enemy will likely start building, which is where you’ll rack up all the explosive damage.

Next up, you’ll need to locate some spray cans, and we got you covered with another guide.
