Upgrading the Workbench in LEGO Fortnite
To craft advanced tools and weapons in LEGO Fortnite, gamers need to upgrade their workbench. This task can be quite challenging due to the peculiar materials required, coupled with the game's lack of guidance. But fret not, Mytour is here to share how to upgrade the workbench in LEGO Fortnite right away.
- Level 1 Workbench (Uncommon): Requires 8 Planks, 3 Shells.
- Level 2 Workbench (Rare): Requires 12 Knotrood Rods, 15 Marble Slabs, 6 Sand Claws, 3 Sand Shells.
- Level 3 Workbench (Epic): Requires 15 Copper Bars, 25 Obsidian Slabs, 1 Brute Scale.
From left to right: basic workbench, Uncommon, Rare, and Epic.Here's how to obtain the materials:
- Plank: Craft a Lumber Mill using 8 Wood and 15 Granite. Then collect wood and saw it into planks.
- Shell: Find and defeat crabs in the Grassland area. They hide by burying themselves underground, resembling round stones with flowers on top.
- Knotrood Rod: Gamers can find Knotroot roots in caves (check the map for cave symbols) but require an Uncommon Forest Axe to chop them. Take them to the Lumber Mill to turn them into Knotrood Rods.
- Marble Slab: Locate Marble in caves, using an Uncommon Pickaxe to mine. Craft a Stone Breaker to convert Marble into Marble Slabs.
- Sand Claw: Claws drop from wolves, each dropping 4 claws. They only appear at night in Beach and Dry Valley areas.
- Sand Shell: Dropped by Sand Rollers, which are crabs found on beaches and in deserts, distinguished by their orange-yellow hue.
- Copper Bar: Find Copper in desert caves and mine them using a Rare Pickaxe. Take the copper to the Metal Smelter to craft Copper Bars.
- Obsidian Slab: Exploration of Lava Caves is necessary to find this material. Obsidian can be found within the caves; bring it back and use a Stone Breaker to craft Obsidian Slabs.
- Brute Scale: Dropped by Brutes, formidable creatures that are challenging to defeat. They appear in deserts, beaches, and Frostland fields.
