Fortnite has presented players with a challenge to knock down a unique type of tree called the Timber Pine in the Find the Force event. Unlike other trees in the game, the Timber Pine has a detachable trunk that can fall over when disconnected. To complete this challenge, players must use a lightsaber or Force Ability to knock down one of these trees.
Finding a Timber Pine on the expansive island of Fortnite can be a bit challenging. However, there are numerous pines scattered throughout the map, providing plenty of opportunities for players to find one. It is highly likely that there will be more than enough Timber Pines for gamers who are eager to complete this challenge.
To begin the challenge, players need to acquire a lightsaber or learn a Force Ability. The only way to obtain these items is by interacting with Star Wars NPCs who can teach players the ways of the Force. These NPCs can be found in the southwestern area of Frenzy Fields. An icon will appear on the map to guide players to the exact location. Once players find Anakin or Darth Maul as holograms, they can interact with them and express their desire to learn a specific Force Ability. This will allow players to enter a gate and emerge with a lightsaber and a few abilities.
The next step is to visit one of the locations where Timber Pines can be found. Fortunately, there are multiple spots on the map where these trees spawn. It is important to note that there are no Timber Pines near certain major Points of Interest (POIs). Therefore, players should head to locations with multiple trees to increase their chances of finding a standing Timber Pine.
Once a standing Timber Pine is located, players must knock it down to complete the challenge. This can be accomplished by using a lightsaber and swinging it at the tree a few times. The damage caused by the swings will eventually break the top part of the tree from the bottom, causing it to fall to the ground. Players should be cautious and avoid standing too close to the falling tree, as it can cause damage to their character.
For those who prefer to use the Force, it is essential to aim directly at the tree while holding the lightsaber. The Force Push ability is the easiest to use for this challenge, although other abilities can also be effective.
It is worth noting that this challenge only requires players to knock down one Timber Pine. Once the tree has been successfully toppled, the challenge will be marked as complete.
