Fortnite: Where to Find Stormtrooper Checkpoints
There are three Stormtrooper Checkpoints in Fortnite, all of which are suitable for the purposes of completing the relevant Star Wars quests. The precise positions of these special locations have been marked on the map below, and players should be on the lookout for concrete barriers and Stormtroopers as they approach them.

Southwest of Sleepy Sound. Northwest of Greasy Grove. Northeast of Condo Canyon.
With respect to the specific quests that require visits to Stormtrooper Checkpoints, they are as follows:
Land at a Stormtrooper Checkpoint, then place top 25. Complete a bounty from a Stormtrooper. Drive a vehicle from Chonker’s Speedway or Logjam Lumberyard to a Stormtrooper Checkpoint.
Notably, players can address the first two quests from this list in a single match by landing at a Stormtrooper Checkpoint, accepting a bounty from one of the NPCs that they find there, and then completing that bounty as they work to survive until top 25. Fans can also purchase an E-11 Blaster Rifle in Fortnite while they are interacting with the Stormtroopers, and indeed that weapon is used in yet another Star Wars quest. While it is certainly not mandatory that players try to take on all of these quests at once, doing so makes for very efficient questing.
Once the Stormtrooper Checkpoint challenges have been resolved, fans may want to take on the remaining two Star Wars quests. Both of these tasks require players to have a Lightsaber in Fortnite, which can be found in chests and as floor loot. With a Lightsaber in hand, players must simply block ten shots and survive five storm phases, and they will receive a unique reward when those requirements have been fulfilled.
That reward is the Empire Banner, and it is sure to be of interest to the many Star Wars fans that are among Fortnite’s playerbase. To note, these players should make sure that they do not put off the Star Wars quests for too long, as they will not be available indefinitely. More specifically, the celebration ends on May 17 at midnight EDT, and it will not be possible to work on the challenges thereafter.
Fortnite is available for PC, PS4, PS5, Switch, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
