Fortnite will occasionally issue a challenge that I have little interest in trying to do. Not because it's bad, but because I'm bad. This may well be one of those challenges. I do, however, have a sneaky streak that makes up for my lack of skill. In this guide, I'll show you where to find Fortnite Chapter 2 Gas Pumps, and how to damage an opponent with one.
Fortnite - Where To Deal Damage While Shooting Gasoline Pumps - Gasoline Pump Locations
On the map above, you will see the locations of the various gas pumps in Fortnite Chapter 2. The area around Holly Hedges, Salty Springs, Pleasant Park, all have them. There's one east of Pleasant Park, across the river. Another can be found directly east of Frenzy Farm, with another to the south.
Now I was lucky, or smart, however you want to interpret it. I can't say it will work for you, but it worked for me. I went to Salty Springs, which was directly under the bus route, which caused a lot of people to dive in that direction, no doubt for this challenge. I fell near the gas pumps and managed to grab a sniper rifle. Then I hide, with the pumps in sight, until someone comes by to loot the place. A gunshot set the pump running and they were unable to extricate themselves in time to avoid damage after the explosion seconds later. I saw other players dancing happily near the pumps, clearly waiting for someone to complete their challenge by taking advantage of their kindness. So kudos to these guys. Remember that you don't need to kill someone, just inflict any damage on them.
I can see this being hard to complete for a lot of people, as you have to wait for someone to get close enough to take the damage, and the challenge instantly makes gas pumps a hotspot that people aren't going to want. to visit. If you're very lucky, there might be a robot nearby that will happily walk ahead for you.
