How to find bonuses
Bounties can be acquired from NPCs scattered around the map. These likable characters can be found in named locations or POIs. There are 40 in total, so it shouldn't be too hard to find one. If you are near an NPC, it will be marked with a speech bubble on your minimap.
Once you've found an NPC, talk to them to see what jobs they offer. Usually they will have challenges like dealing a certain amount of damage with a weapon or surviving a certain number of storm phases, but most of them have a specific challenge to take out another player in exchange for gold bars. . This challenge is a bonus, and that's what you'll have to choose. Anything other than “Eliminate Enemy Player” will not count as a bonus. Rarely, some NPCs will not have a bounty to offer you, and in this case, you will have to find another.
How to complete bounties in Fortnite
Once you have accepted a bounty, your target's name will be displayed on the left side of the screen. You only have a certain amount of time to find and kill your target, and you can see how much time you have left under your target's name. To locate your target, open your map and look for a large yellow circle. This is the general location of your target, and you will need to research it yourself once you reach this area. This circle will move when they move, so you will be able to see which direction your target is heading at all times.
If you succeed in eliminating your target, you will get the bounty and receive gold bars as a reward. If your target is killed by another player before you can reach it, a notification stating “Bounty Poached” will appear on your screen, but it still counts as completion. You will still get the full amount of gold bars and progress towards your weekly bounty challenge as long as the target dies by all means.
