Hey everyone, let me tell you about my latest obsession in Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 3 – taking down the new boss, Daigo. It’s a wild storyline twist; the former hero has fully embraced the dark side and now rules over Demon's Domain with his stone mask minions. I've had some epic (and some not-so-epic) battles trying to claim his legendary loot, and I’m here to share everything I’ve learned so you can skip the frustrating part and get straight to the goodies.

First things first, you need to know where to find this guy. Daigo has set up his lair at Demon's Domain, the point of interest smack in the middle of the southern part of the Battle Royale island. I usually recommend landing on the outskirts of the central building to grab some initial gear. The area is crawling with his henchmen, so clear them out first or be prepared for a chaotic fight. Once you're geared up, head to the bottom floor of the main building. You'll find Daigo just... meditating there, all calm before the storm. The fight starts the moment you take a shot at him. Simple as that!

Now, beating Daigo isn't about brute force—it's about strategy. His main gimmick is the four stone masks floating around him. Your primary target should always be these masks, not Daigo himself initially. Here’s my tried-and-true method:

  1. Focus Fire on the Masks: Use a weapon with a fast fire rate to break each mask. I've found SMGs or the standard Spire Rifle work wonders for this.

  2. Capitalize on the Stun: Destroying a mask stuns Daigo and makes him vulnerable. This is your window to unload your magazine directly into him.

  3. Rinse and Repeat: He'll summon the masks again, so you have to break the cycle four times to finally take him down.

A huge mistake I made early on was trying to use shotguns. Don't be like past me! 🫣 Daigo has two main attacks: a telegraphed forward dash and a sweeping laser beam. Both are easy to dodge if you keep moving and use slide jumps. The real challenge is his massive health pool, especially when the masks are up. I can't stress this enough: come loaded with ammo. You'll burn through it faster than you think.

So, is all this effort worth it? Absolutely. The loot you get for defeating Daigo is some of the best in the game right now. He drops two exclusive items that can completely change your match.

The first, and arguably the most powerful, is the Infernal Defenses Medallion. This thing is a game-changer.

Here’s what it does:

  • Blazing Fast Reloads: Your weapons reload at an insane speed. It feels like you have a permanent mini-gun.

  • Passive Shield Regeneration: Your shields regenerate 1 point per second, all the way up to 50. It's like having a permanent mini-chug jug effect.

⚠️ Major Warning: Just like other medallions, carrying this makes you a glowing target on the map for every other player. The power comes with a price—be ready to defend it!

The second prize is the Enhanced Spire Rifle. This isn't your average floor loot LMG; it's Daigo's personal variant.

Let me break down why this gun is legendary:

Feature Enhanced Spire Rifle Standard Spire Rifle
Magazine Size Massively Increased Standard Large
Fire Rate Significantly Faster Standard
Accuracy/Recoil Excellent & Controllable Good
Structure Damage Very High High
Exclusive Source Only from Daigo Floor Loot/Chests

In practice, this weapon melts through builds and players alike. The combination of a huge magazine and faster fire rate means you can hold down the trigger and suppress entire squads. It's the perfect tool for end-game dominance.

My final piece of advice? Don't go alone unless you're a solo god. The fight at Demon's Domain is a hotspot. Even if you manage to defeat Daigo, other players will hear the commotion and come to third-party you for that sweet medallion. Team up with your squad, coordinate your attacks on the masks, and have someone watch the entrances. The feeling of finally beating him, grabbing that medallion and that gorgeous gold rifle... it's what keeps me dropping back at Demon's Domain, season after season. Good luck out there—maybe I'll see you on the island! 🏝️💥
