Where to find metal structures to get alloy pieces in Fortnite

Unfortunately, this quest will not direct you to what type of structures will drop metal. You will need to locate those yourself as you play Fortnite. Thankfully, there are several locations scattered throughout the island that contain several large buildings that readily provide metal resources, and they’re going to drop alloy pieces for you to collect.

The best locations to find metal structures will be the north, northeast, east, and southeast parts of the map. These contain many of the most easily accessible metal structures for you to find in Fortnite. For example, almost any building in the north part of the map, among the snow, will be considered a metal structure. These include POIs such as Brutal Bastion, Lonely Labs, Slappy Shores, and Faulty Splits.

When you approach these structures, take out your harvesting tool to begin hitting them, and so long as they’re dropping metal parts for you to use when you build anything, these count.

You’ll know you’re hitting the correct locations because they’re going to drop alloy pieces, a special item you can only acquire while you have this quest. When these fall on the ground, approach them to interact with these items and add them to your inventory. You can move on to the next quest after you’ve collected at least five alloy pieces.
