Do you damage an alien biomes?

The Fortnite NPC known only as Special Forces is once again wanting to test players' mettle in battle. However, rather than simply asking loopers to shoot at stuff to prove their skills, he now wants them to shoot at opponents and deal damage to them in alien biomes.

Apparently, he's inquisitive as to whether or not bullets work in anti-gravity alien biomes. As weird as this training exercise sounds, loopers who manage to complete it will be rewarded with 30,000 experience points.

Note: Fortnite Week 11 Epic challenges go live on August 19, at 10.00 am ET.

How to complete the "Deal damage in alien biomes" Fortnite Week 11 Epic challenge

In order to complete this Fortnite challenge, players need to deal a total of 150 damage within the alien biomes. This challenge is not bound to a single match, and players can complete it in multiple attempts.

Currently, there are two distinct ways to complete this challenge, each comes with its own pros and cons. However, having said that, one method is more accessible and better than the other.

Players should note that they have to be present within the alien biome while shooting. Shooting from outside the biome may not help toward progression of the task.

1) How to deal damage in alien biomes of Holly Hatchery

Players who decide to deal damage within the alien biomes of Holly Hatchery have a hard yet achievable task ahead of them. Given that Holly Hatchery is well guarded and players often drop in to take in the sights and sounds, finding opponents to damage shouldn't be too difficult.

Since the challenge does not specifically mention whom to deal damage to, players should be able to complete this task by shooting at either the Trespassers, players within the alien biome or even the pesky alien parasites.

2) How to deal damage in alien biomes using alien nanites

For players wanting to avoid the crossfire between aliens and other players in Holly Hatchery, they can opt to complete this challenge using alien nanites. In fact, this method is easier and less chaotic in general, with the only hard part being the acquisition of the nanites. Thankfully, players can buy some with the help of gold to save time.

Once bought or found, players can then approach any NPC or another player, use the alien nanites to create an alien biome and deal damage to NPCs/players within it to complete the task.

Thank You!

Alien biomes were introduced in Fortnite Season 7. These areas register high alien activity. But what is so special about them? And where do you find an alien biome in Fortnite?

Before we go on into further details about this new biome, I'm not sure if it will still last in Fortnite Season 8.

It's a fun little biome to experiment in, and you can come up with some really interesting plays in such areas.

What is an alien biome in Fortnite?

As mentioned before, an alien biome is a space dominated by mostly alien invaders. These regions sport a low level of gravity.

Not only that, you'll find alien trespassers armed with the Kymera ray gun here. You will also come across some alien tech weapons in these areas too.

Alien plants dominate the zone. And most importantly, you'll find alien parasites and wildlife infected by alien parasites in these zones.

These alien biomes in Fortnite are demarcated by high walls with a purple-ish texture. Once you enter them, you'll hear an eerie music playing.

Not only that, you will be able to fly high in these zones. And you can practically build anywhere inside an alien biome, even in mid air.

That being said, where do you find an alien biome in Fortnite?

Where do you find an alien biome in Fortnite?

There are two specific places where you will be able to find an alien biome in Fortnite.

The first is at Holly Hatchery. This POI was renamed to Holly Hatchery after the aliens took over it.

It all started with the big location in the middle and then slowly the surrounding houses started succumbing to the alien invasion.

The second location is within the alien Mothership itself. Although you won't see any alien life inside there, it still is an alien biome.

There's low gravity all around, allowing you to float your way through. Not only that, you'll find remnants of the abducted sites in there too.

Oddly enough, not just Holly Hatchery, but any location on the map that has a purple coloration is regarded as an alien biome. These purple blotches usually feature alien vegetation too.

These areas don't have a region of low gravity, unlike Holly Hatchery. They just have alien trees. That being said, these are the areas where you need to deploy scanners for the Fortnite Week 12 challenge.

There are six odd locations where you can deploy these scanners, but only two should suffice. The image below will help you spot those locations.

However, that's not it. You can also create an alien biome for yourself. All you need to do is toss an alien nanite on the ground and that should do the trick.

However, keep in mind that the alien biome formed by this is just temporary. So exercise caution while using it.

Now that you know where to find alien biomes in Fortnite, all you need to do is deal damage to opponents and you end up completing a Fortnite Season 7 Week 11 challenge.

Happy hunting.
