How to complete the quest 'How to Hit opponents with SMGs' fast

Focus on busy areas or creative modes if available, but stick to Battle Royale for official progress. Land at spots with high player traffic to rack up shots without needing kills. Swap to SMGs whenever you loot one and spray during peeks or pushes.​

Step 1: Gear up with an SMG

Drop at high-loot POIs like Cartmanland or Ripped Tides. Open chests and stay alert for Flex SMG or other variants—prioritize blue/purple rarities for faster fire rates. Hip-fire in close range to land quick hits.​

Step 2: Engage opponents early

Head to hot drops or patrol edges of the storm. Poke enemies from cover, spraying 5-10 shots per encounter. Bots in less crowded lobbies help if you're warming up.​

Step 3: Track and repeat across matches

Check quest progress in the sidebar after fights. Aim for 20-30 hits per game; 4-5 matches suffice. Team Rumble accelerates this with respawns.​
