Solving the fox statue riddles in Nightshift Forest is an essential part of the Splinters of Possibility story quest in Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 1. These fox statues each present you with a unique riddle, and getting the answers right is crucial for progressing through the questline.
Here’s everything you need to know about finding and solving each riddle in Splinters of Possibility quest.
The Nightshift Forest houses three fox statues, each positioned near potential Bushranger spawn points. You’ll want to keep an eye out for these stone structures as you explore the area. The statues are spread across three distinct locations:
Quick Tip: While you are in Nightshift Forest you can also interact with Bushranger for Solunar Key which opens up the Mythic Vault.
Each fox statue presents you with a unique riddle and three possible answers. Here’s what you need to know about each one:
The northwest statue asks: “I stay by your side, trusty and true, in chaos or calm, I’ll clear your view”
Your options are:
The correct answer is Pickaxe. This makes sense because your pickaxe is always with you throughout the match, helping you gather materials and clear obstacles.
At the northeast location, you’ll hear: “I soar through the skies graceful and light, yet I am gone in the ground at sight”
You can choose between:
Select Glider as your answer. The riddle refers to how gliders help you soar through the air but disappear once you land.
The southern statue poses this riddle: “I sing without voice, I glow without flame, to those who find me prize is same”
Your choices are:
The correct answer is Treasure Chest. This references the distinct sound and glow of treasure chests that lead players to valuable loot.
When approaching this quest, it’s best to tackle all three riddles in a single match if possible. Since the Nightshift Forest can be a popular landing spot, try to complete this quest when the area is less crowded, perhaps later in the match, or when the battle bus path is far from this location.
Keep in mind that you don’t need to solve the riddles in any particular order. After solving all three riddles, you’ll be ready to move on to the next stage of the Splinters of Possibility questline. Make sure to check your quest log to see what comes next in the story progression.
