Most of these quests are fairly simple:
The most complicated quests involve traveling 777 units while airborne with Birthday Medallion balloons and revealing players with the Firework Flare Gun.
To find a Birthday Medallion inFortnite, players will need to find the Legendary-quality Birthday Present item.This is a throwable, and when tossed, it creates a giant Birthday Present structure that contains a Birthday Medallion inside.
With a Medallion equipped, balloons will occasionally spawn on the player character, significantly increasing jump range and slowing their fall rate. Unfortunately, Birthday Presents are extremely rare, so players will likely need multiple matches to find one.
With enough Balloons, players will actually lift off the ground entirely and may need to cut balloons to stay grounded.
The Flare Gun can also be found as ground loot. When fired, it shoots out a firework that reveals nearby players.As such, firing it over a crowded location filled with enemy players is a great way to quickly tick this quest off the list.

As such, players don’t need to complete the toughest Birthday Quests to earn all the cosmetics. However, as mentioned above, these quests and the cosmetics will vanish on October 1st, so anyFortniteplayers hoping to earn them should jump into a game straight away.
