Bouncy Egg locations in Fortnite explained

Bouncy Eggs can be found across the Fortnite map. When searching for them, you'll want to stay away from landmarks or named locations; focusing, instead, on the fields and hills which lie between these areas.

Thankfully, Bouncy Eggs have fixed locations which means you can play as many matches as you like and always find a cluster of eggs in the same location. This makes the 'Forage Bouncy Eggs hidden around the island' Legendary Quest quite an easy challenge to complete.

Here are some of the Bouncy Egg locations we found:

Each location holds between two to three eggs, which means, if you move quickly, you can complete at least one stage of the Legendary quest per match.

If you visit a location only to find no eggs, then they have already been consumed by another player and you'll probably want to make a run for it, since they might be close.

How to forge Bouncy eggs in Fortnite

Once you've found a collection of Bouncy Eggs in Fortnite, you'll need to forge them to make progress in the Legendary quest and, luckily, there are two ways of achieving this.

The first is to simply eat the eggs off the ground, which will boost your Shield slightly and give you a jump boost for a small period of time.

You'll find the Bouncy Eggs in small clusters.

The second method, however, is to gather the Bouncy Eggs, which will place them in your inventory. This will also count towards the Legendary Quest and allow you to save the eggs for later on in the match.
