1. Your quest still shows a count
- Return to the Fortnite lobby and select Battle Royale.
- Open Quests → Treasure Hunt and find the objective for opening chests. The first number in the progress display is your current tally; the second is the quest target.
- Take a screenshot or copy the first number into Set your count so you have a starting point outside the game.
2. Your tally stopped at 1,000
- Use 1,000 as your baseline if you confirmed the quest was complete and have no record of later openings. If you have a more recent total in a note or screenshot, use that instead.
- Save the baseline in the counter. Tap +1 after each chest you open, or add a whole match’s tally at once with Set your count.
- Screenshot your saved count after a session. If your totals disagree later, start from the most recent confirmed screenshot and add only the openings logged after it.
3. You don’t remember your total
- Check for an old quest screenshot or a dated note that gives you a confirmed number.
- If you find a reliable baseline, enter it and add only the openings you can verify. If you can’t recover a baseline, start at zero and treat it as a count from today.
- Record each new chest from that point. Keep a dated screenshot of the tally if you switch devices.
