It’s time to get that sleuthing cap on, loyal Fortnite players, as one of the Week 8 Legendary quests requires you to plant Wiretaps at several key locations around the map.

Season 7 of Fortnite is in full force, and more weekly challenges have just arrived. For the Week 8 set, the Legendary quests on offer continue to expand the mystery surrounding the alien invaders and their battle with the Imagined Order.

After collecting an access card from an IO Guard, players will need to plant Wiretaps at different key locations. There are three of them to plant in total, so you’ll need to visit three of the marked locations on the map below.

Where to plant Wiretaps in Fortnite

Here’s where to plant Wiretaps on the Fortnite map.

There are five locations you can plant Wiretaps in Fortnite:

  • Dinky Dish
  • Dockside Dish
  • Defiant Dish
  • Lazy Lake
  • Catty Corner (at the nearby **REDACTED** landmark)

All of these locations have three places to plant Wiretaps, so it shouldn’t take too long to find them. Our best advice is to choose locations far away from the Battle Bus path so you won’t have much competition when you get there.

Below, you’ll find maps for each of the five locations to help you find all of the Wiretaps in no time at all. Remember, you only need to plant three Wiretaps to complete the challenge!
