Fortnite Guardian Shields: How to Collect Micro Chips

As one of the Oathbound quests in Fortnite, players must collect micro chips from Guardian Shields.

Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 1 released a list of Oathbound challenges for players to complete to gain XP to level up their battle passes. Part 3 of the quests was released last week, and fans are wondering how best to complete certain tasks.

Guardain Shields were introduced with the new chapter as a defensive item for players. When deployed, the shield will block any incoming fire, and can be maintained as players move across the map. Now, damage to a Guardian Shield will drop micro chips.

Here's a breakdown on how to collect dropped micro chips from Guardian Shields.

Fortnite Guardian Shields: How to Collect Micro Chips

To earn 20,000 XP, players only need to follow these simple instructions to complete this Oathbound quest:

• Find a Guardian Shield in a chest, either Oathbound or regular, from floor loot, or in a Supply Drop.
• Deploy the Guardian Shield.
• Shoot at the shield to inflict damage.
• Collect the micro chips as they fall from the shield to the ground.

Players can also earn the micro chips from shooting at an enemy player's Guardian Shield. Although it is safer to deploy your own shield in the safe location, as long as a player collects the fallen micro chips, the quest will be complete.
