To take advantage of the Fortnite XP glitch and level up quickly, players will need to follow these steps:

  1. Land at a gas station that has Slap barrels. These barrels can be found at most gas stations in Chapter 4 Season 1.
  2. Once you have located some Slap barrels, break one of them. It is important to only break one barrel at this time, as you will need another barrel later on in the process.

By following these steps, players can begin the process of utilizing the XP glitch to quickly level up in Fortnite by Epic Games.

Alternatively, you can follow the given steps:

  1. Grab a pump and drop it quickly. By doing this, players will earn progress towards the weekly challenge. A bug in the game registers the action of grabbing a pump as opening a container, allowing players to receive progress for the challenge simply by grabbing a pump. It is important to make sure that you are under the effects of Slap while performing this action, as the glitch will not work without it.
  1. Grab and drop the pump repeatedly. Make sure to be under the effects of Slap while doing so. When the Slap effect expires, go back to a Slap barrel, break it, and repeat the process.

By using the Interact button and repeating this process, players will be able to complete all five stages of the challenge quickly. Not only will they earn XP for completing each stage, but they will also receive bonus XP for completing multiple stages at once.
