The iconic Jedi Master has finally arrived on the Fortnite island! Luke Skywalker joins the ever-expanding roster of Star Wars characters in Epic Games’ battle royale sensation. Unlike previous Star Wars collaborations, Luke Skywalker comes with a series of special “Found” quests that not only provide substantial XP rewards but also unlock exclusive Star Wars-themed cosmetics and items. This comprehensive guide will walk you through completing all Luke Skywalker Found quests efficiently, helping you maximize rewards while enjoying this limited-time Star Wars experience.
Where to Find Luke Skywalker in Fortnite
Before tackling any quests, you’ll need to locate Luke Skywalker on the island. Unlike many NPCs who remain in fixed locations, Luke follows a rotation pattern between three specific locations:
- Jedi Temple Ruins – Located in the northeastern section of the map, this ancient structure bears similarities to the temple seen in the sequel trilogy.
- Rebel Outpost – Situated in the western woodland area, this small encampment features equipment and tech reminiscent of the Rebel Alliance.
- Meditation Grove – Hidden in the southern mountains, this peaceful area is where Luke often retreats to connect with the Force.
Luke rotates between these locations every match, so if you don’t find him at one spot, check the others. To help identify his current location, look for a special lightsaber icon on your map once you get close enough to his position.
All Luke Skywalker Found Quests in Fortnite
Luke offers a series of seven progressive quests, each requiring completion of the previous one. Here’s the full list:
Quest 1: The Path of the Jedi
Requirements:
- Speak to Luke Skywalker
- Collect 100 Force energy from Force crystals across the island
- Return to Luke
Reward: 20,000 XP and unlocks the “Jedi Apprentice” loading screen
This initial quest serves as your introduction to Luke and the Force mechanics. Force crystals appear as small, glowing blue objects scattered across the map, often in areas with Star Wars-themed decorations or landmarks. Each crystal provides approximately 20 Force energy, so you’ll need to find at least five of them.
Pro Tip: Force crystals respawn in the same locations each match, so once you find a good cluster, you can return there in future matches.
Quest 2: Lightsaber Training
Requirements:
- Acquire a lightsaber
- Deal 500 damage to opponents with a lightsaber
- Block 10 ranged attacks using lightsaber defense
- Return to Luke
Reward: 25,000 XP and the “Padawan Stance” emote
For this quest, you’ll need to obtain a lightsaber and master its basic attacks and defenses. Lightsabers can be found in Star Wars-themed chests (which glow blue rather than the standard yellow), as floor loot in Star Wars-decorated areas, or by defeating certain Star Wars NPCs.
To block ranged attacks, hold the aim button while equipped with the lightsaber. Your character will automatically deflect incoming bullets. Try to engage opponents at medium range to maximize your blocking opportunities.
Pro Tip: Team Rumble mode is excellent for completing this quest, as you can respawn with your lightsaber if eliminated, allowing for continuous progress.
Quest 3: Force Mastery
Requirements:
- Use Force Push to knock back 5 opponents
- Use Force Pull to bring 10 items to you
- Eliminate 3 opponents while under the effects of Force Speed
- Return to Luke
Reward: 30,000 XP and “Force Meditation” emote
This quest focuses on the Force abilities available in Fortnite. After speaking with Luke, you’ll receive temporary Force powers that last for three matches. Force Push (right trigger) creates a powerful shockwave that knocks back opponents, Force Pull (left trigger) draws items toward you, and Force Speed (activated by double-tapping the sprint button) temporarily increases your movement speed.
Pro Tip: Force abilities have cooldowns, indicated by a blue meter on your screen. Manage these cooldowns carefully during combat encounters.
Quest 4: Jedi Trials
Requirements:
- Complete 3 bounties
- Search 5 Jedi Holocrons
- Survive 5 storm circles
- Return to Luke
Reward: 35,000 XP and “Jedi Robes” back bling
This quest tests your overall Fortnite skills. Bounties can be acquired from Bounty Boards across the map or from certain NPCs. Jedi Holocrons are small, glowing cubes that appear in specific locations, typically in Star Wars-themed areas or hidden in caves and ruins. Surviving storm circles simply requires you to stay alive as the play area shrinks.
Pro Tip: This quest doesn’t need to be completed in a single match. Focus on one objective per game if necessary.
Quest 5: Kyber Crystal Hunt
Requirements:
- Find Kyber crystals of 3 different colors (blue, green, purple)
- Craft your own lightsaber at a Forge
- Eliminate 5 opponents with your crafted lightsaber
- Return to Luke
Reward: 40,000 XP and customizable lightsaber pickaxe
Kyber crystals are rare finds that appear in specific locations:
- Blue crystals: Typically found near water sources
- Green crystals: Usually hidden in forested areas
- Purple crystals: Often discovered in mountain regions or caves
Once you’ve collected all three crystals, visit any Forge station (marked on your map with an anvil icon) to craft your custom lightsaber. This crafted weapon has enhanced damage compared to standard lightsabers.
Pro Tip: The crafted lightsaber persists between matches until you complete the quest, so focus on eliminations once you’ve crafted it.
Quest 6: The Dark Side
Requirements:
- Defeat 10 Imperial Stormtroopers
- Sabotage 3 Imperial communication arrays
- Survive an encounter with Darth Vader
- Return to Luke
Reward: 45,000 XP and “Balanced Force” contrail
This quest pits you against the Empire’s forces. Imperial Stormtroopers can be found patrolling around Imperial Outposts, which are marked on your map with Empire insignias. Communication arrays are tall structures at these outposts that can be destroyed by dealing damage to their base.
The Darth Vader encounter is particularly challenging. He spawns randomly at one of several landing sites at the beginning of each match, arriving in an Imperial shuttle. To complete this objective, you must engage Vader and survive the encounter—you don’t necessarily need to defeat him.
Pro Tip: For Darth Vader encounters, it’s best to work with teammates or wait until other players have weakened him before engaging.
Quest 7: Becoming a Jedi Master
Requirements:
- Win a Victory Royale while carrying a lightsaber
- Use Force powers 50 times in a single match
- Defeat Luke Skywalker in lightsaber combat
- Return to the Jedi Temple
Reward: 50,000 XP and Luke Skywalker outfit with selectable styles
The final quest presents the ultimate challenge. Winning while carrying a lightsaber requires careful inventory management and combat strategy. Using Force powers 50 times in one match requires constant ability usage during cooldown periods.
The most difficult part is defeating Luke in lightsaber combat. For this objective, you must challenge Luke to a duel by selecting a special dialogue option when interacting with him. He becomes significantly more powerful in this duel, utilizing advanced lightsaber techniques and Force abilities.
Pro Tip: Before challenging Luke, ensure you have full shields and health, as well as some healing items for the aftermath. His attack patterns are predictable but powerful, so focus on countering and timing your strikes carefully.
Best Loadout for Completing Luke Skywalker Quests
To maximize your efficiency when completing these quests, consider the following loadout:
- Primary Weapon: Lightsaber (essential for most quests)
- Secondary Weapon: Medium to long-range option (assault rifle or sniper)
- Healing: Shields and medkits for sustainability
- Mobility: Items like Grappler or Shockwave Grenades to reposition quickly
- Utility: Force items (when available) or grenades for additional combat options
Common Challenges and Solutions
Challenge: Difficulty finding Luke Skywalker
Solution: Use the Party Assist feature to have teammates help locate him. Remember his three possible spawn locations and check them systematically.
Challenge: Struggling with lightsaber combat
Solution: Practice the timing between attacks and blocks. Remember that after a four-hit combo, there’s a brief cooldown period where you’re vulnerable.
Challenge: Can’t find enough Force crystals
Solution: Check near Star Wars-themed landmarks and decorations. The crystals emit a distinctive sound when you’re nearby, so use headphones for better detection.
Challenge: Difficulty defeating Luke in the final quest
Solution: Study his attack patterns. He typically performs three consecutive strikes followed by a Force push. Dodge or block the strikes, then counter-attack during his recovery period.
