Fortnite recently added Doctor Doom cosmetics to the battle pass and one of the requirements for unlocking items is to survive fire damage four times in matches.

The challenge itself is self-explanatory but actually finishing it is a different discussion altogether due to how fire deals significant damage to players in Fortnite.

Fortunately, this guide covers some useful methods in completing this particular quest to get your Doctor Doom cosmetics.

How To Survive Fire Damage

One of the simplest ways to survive fire damage in the game is by blowing up the gas stations scattered throughout the environment. When you arrive at one, you just need to hit the fuel pumps using your harvesting tool or any other weapon.

A recommendation for this is to use a gun so that you can deal damage to the fuel pump while also keeping your distance. After destroying a fuel pump, there will be some flames on the ground that last for about 10 to 15 seconds, according to OneEsports.

You just need to stand on top of these flames for a moment and quickly run away to only take minimal damage while still taking fire-based damage. You can simply repeat this process three more times to complete the quest.

Finishing the primary objective of the quest gives players 20,000 experience points which really helps in leveling up the Battle Pass.

If you want to try a different method of surviving damage in Fortnite, you can try to destroy a car until it explodes. After it explodes, you can go near it and try to set yourself aflame with the fires that result, said GameRanx.

Some Alternative Options

However, this alternative takes a lot more time and effort because cars in the game have a lot of health. Furthermore, making a car inaccessible is not recommended as they are a valuable asset in traversing the map.

A third option is to use Firefly Jars and throw it at the ground to set it on fire, which you can use to set yourself aflame. You can collect Fireflies in Fortnite when they spawn in forested areas, particularly in the northern parts.

Another tip to trying to survive fire damage to complete the Doctor Doom quest is to have some healing items on hand. Some recommendations are MedKits and Bandages which will let you recover a lot of health quickly to keep yourself alive.

The main challenge of this particular quest is that you need to survive fire damage four separate times. This makes it a bit of a hassle if you have a hard time finding a suitable method, according to Win.
