Fortnite’s Winterfest 2023 is in full swing, bringing festive cheer and exciting challenges to players. This year’s update includes 14 daily free gifts, two exclusive skins, a brand-new limited-time mode (LTM), and snow-themed weapons. Among the highlights is the return of Krampus, the legendary half-goat, half-demon creature, now introduced as a boss. Krampus brings three unique quests that offer significant rewards for those daring enough to face him.

This guide will walk you through everything you need to know about locating Krampus, completing his quests, and maximizing your Winterfest experience.

↖ Where to Find Krampus in Fortnite Winterfest 2023

↖ Krampus’s Location

Krampus resides at the Cliffside Lodge, located southeast of the map, just below Hazy Hillside. Look for a snow-covered dark log cabin in the area. If you’re having trouble locating it, use your map to pinpoint the exact location.

↖ Preparing for the Fight

Krampus roams the Cliffside Lodge, waiting for unsuspecting players to challenge him. Once he spots you, he’ll attack, so be prepared with strong weapons, plenty of ammo, and shields. If you’re not ready for the encounter, you might need to retreat and regroup.

↖ Quest Rewards for Defeating Krampus

Eliminating Krampus completes the “Help eliminate Krampus to save Winterfest” quest. Successfully defeating him will reward you with 15,000 XP, and a Rare Chest will spawn at the location.

↖ How to Use a Sneaky Snowmando Near Krampus

The Sneaky Snowmando is a disguise you can use to hide from Krampus or other players near his location.

↖ Finding a Sneaky Snowmando

• Look for the Sneaky Snowmando disguise as loot across the map.
• Alternatively, you can purchase one from NPC Leelah at Stormy Station for 100 Gold Bars.

↖ Using the Sneaky Snowmando at Cliffside Lodge

To complete the quest, deploy the disguise near Krampus:

1. Go to the first floor of Cliffside Lodge.
2. Throw the Sneaky Snowmando disguise and hide inside it.

Completing this quest will reward you with 15,000 XP.

↖ How to Deploy a Beacon at Krampus’s Present Stash

Another challenge involves deploying a beacon at Krampus’s stash of presents outside the Cliffside Lodge.

↖ Locating the Present Stash

Krampus’s gift pile can be found near his lodge. Look for the stash outside the building and approach it.

↖ Deploying the Beacon

To deploy the beacon:

1. Stand near the gift pile.
2. Press your interaction button to activate the beacon.

Be cautious, as this area can attract other players trying to complete the same quest. Eliminating Krampus beforehand can make this task easier. Completing this quest will also reward you with 15,000 XP.

↖ Tips for Facing Krampus and Completing the Quests

• Stay Equipped: Bring powerful weapons, plenty of ammo, and shield items to survive Krampus’s attacks.
• Watch for Other Players: Krampus’s location is popular, so expect other players in the area. Stay alert.
• Use Teamwork: If possible, bring teammates to help you take down Krampus and secure the location.
• Time Your Quests: Complete the Sneaky Snowmando and present stash beacon quests after eliminating Krampus to avoid interference.

↖ Conclusion

Fortnite Winterfest 2023 brings an exciting twist with Krampus as a boss character. By following this guide, you’ll be well-prepared to find, defeat, and complete the related quests for valuable XP and rewards.

Whether you’re using a Sneaky Snowmando to avoid detection or deploying a beacon at the gift stash, each challenge adds to the festive fun.
