Fortnite players need to dislodge a Runaway Boulder with a Baller to complete one of the Week 2 Quests, so we’ve got the best locations to help you finish this challenge in no time at all.

Runaway Boulders are one of the new features introduced in Fortnite Chapter 3: Season 3. While they haven’t been advertised much, they can be quite useful for getting a surprise attack on unsuspecting opponents.

You’ll also need to find one to complete the ‘Boost into a Runaway Boulder and dislodge it with a Baller’ challenge in Week 2, but they’re not marked on the map so they can be difficult to find if you don’t know where to look.

How to dislodge a Runaway Boulder with a Baller in Fortnite

To complete this challenge, you’ll first need to find a Baller near the rollercoaster that loops around Rave Cave. Once you’ve got one, make your way to the nearest Runaway Boulder listed on the map above.

Dislodging the Runaway Boulder with your Baller is as simple as pressing the ‘boost’ button (which is Circle on PlayStation, for example). If you hit the Runaway Boulder, it should dislodge and go flying.

That’s it! The challenge is complete and 15,000 XP is yours. While you’re in the Baller, it’s probably worth completing the ‘Enter the wind tunnel in a Baller at The Screwballer’ quest that’s nearby as well.
