Fortnite Hunters ramps up the excitement with a fresh wave of updates, including a Battle Pass inspired by Japanese Mythology, new weapons, and unique items. Among these additions, the Oni Masks stand out as a thrilling new feature, offering players special abilities that can tilt the scales in their favor during a match. Here's a comprehensive guide to understanding and acquiring these mystical masks.
Updated on January 14, 2025, by Nathan Round: The Oni Masks are powerful tools, and while luck plays a role in obtaining them, there are now two surefire ways to secure them. This guide has been revised to include how to get the Oni Masks from Daigo and a new location that guarantees both masks every time.
All Oni Masks & How To Use Them
Void Oni Mask
The Void Oni Mask is a top choice for enhancing mobility in Fortnite. By using the Shoot Button, players can throw a Void Tear, and then teleport to its location with the Aim Button while the mask is equipped. The Epic Variant offers 15 uses with a 5-second cooldown, while the Mythic version provides a robust 50 uses.
Fire Oni Mask
In contrast, the Fire Oni Mask is geared towards offensive play. Players can launch a guided flame projectile by pressing the Fire Button, dealing 100 damage to any opponent it hits. This projectile can affect multiple enemies if they are close together. The Fire Oni Mask comes with 8 uses and an 8-second cooldown, with the Mythic variant increasing to 16 uses.
How To Get Oni Masks in Fortnite
Searching Elemental Chests
The most direct method to obtain Oni Masks is by looting Elemental Chests, which guarantee an elemental item, including both Boons and Oni Masks. Both the Void and Fire Oni Masks can be found this way, though it requires some luck. Named Points of Interest (POIs) on the map are the best spots to search for these chests.
Defeating Demon Warriors
Another way to secure Oni Masks is by defeating Demon Warriors, marked by Oni Mask icons on the map. While they don't always drop a mask, they can yield either a Void or Fire Oni Mask, depending on what they are carrying. Additionally, defeating them might also provide Typhoon Blades and a Fire or Void Boon.
Searching Chests
For those willing to rely on chance, regular Chests also offer a possibility of finding both the Fire and Void Oni Masks at Epic Rarity. This method, however, demands the most luck.
Purchase From Daigon
For a guaranteed acquisition, players can purchase both Oni Masks from Daigo at Masked Meadows using Gold Bars. To do this, players must complete all stages of Daigo's Mask Expertise Quests to unlock the option.
Loot From Daigon's Hidden Workshop
If quests aren't your thing, you can still secure both masks by visiting Daigon's hidden workshop, located beneath the building on the north side of Masked Meadows. Here, a machine with both masks can be looted like a regular chest, ensuring you leave with both the Void and Fire Oni Masks.
Defeating Bosses (Mythic Oni Masks Only)
For those aiming for the Mythic Oni Masks, you'll need to challenge specific bosses. The Mythic Void Oni Mask is dropped by Night Rose at Demon's Dojo, and the Mythic Fire Oni Mask is obtained by defeating Shogun X at Shogun's Arena. These Mythic masks function similarly to their Epic counterparts but offer more uses.
