How to Use Fortnite Chest Counter to Track Progress
Keeping track of how many chests you've opened with a Fortnite Chest Counter is good to check against the odds of rewards.
Fortnite is in the midst of a flurry of new and returning players, all eager to hunt down the coveted Pirate Access Token, but the odds are stacked against you, so tracking the number of chests opened is a quick way to see your progress.
While there are no guarantees when it comes to opening Treasure Chests, the more chests you open, the greater the odds are of unlocking high-end rewards like the Pirate Access Token, so it’s natural to want to see how you’re progressing.
If that’s something you want to do, we’ve got all the details on how, but there are some significant caveats, which we’ve explained.
How to use Fortnite Chest Counter
Fortnite doesn’t directly have a counter to track how many chests you are opening in the game, but there is a quest tied to the current season that can be used to keep a tally of your progress.
In the Quests tab, there is a Treasure Chest Hunt section, allowing you to track how many chests you’ve opened across three types: standard chests, Rare Chests, and Sprite Chests.
The quests are tracked across five stages, but only up to a maximum of 1,000 for each category. Considering the odds of obtaining a Pirate Access Token are in the hundreds of thousands, you’ll quickly surpass that.
While it’s not a perfect solution, it does mean you can keep tabs on your progress early on, but remember this only tracks chests you have opened yourself, so it won’t tally the chests that any teammates have opened.
Given that Pirate Shop Access is unlocked for everyone in your squad, if you’re playing with friends, it’s widely seen as the best approach, and if you add the tally of all your friends together, you’ll have a better idea of how many in total you’ve opened, and can then compare it to the Treasure Chest Rewards odds.
Beyond that, unfortunately, there’s no easy way to track how many chests you’ve opened, unless you want to go all-out and use paper and pen to keep note, but you’ll likely get tired of that very quickly.
