Obsidian in LEGO Fortnite – a rare resource mined in lava caves in the desert biome. To get it, you have to make a special pickaxe and find a dungeon. The resulting obsidian fragments can be processed into obsidian blocks - they are useful for creating high-level equipment and rare buildings.
In this guide, we will tell you where to get obsidian in LEGO Fortnite, how to get to it, how to mine it, and why this resource has such a high value. Let us explain what obsidian blocks are needed for and how to create them.
Where to find obsidian in LEGO Fortnite
Obsidian can only be found in lava caves, which are located in the desert biome: look out for a large pile of sand-colored stones - this is the entrance to the cave.
A separate guide provides more details on how how to discover caves and survive in them.
Obsidian is most often found on the ceiling, so bring plenty of wood to create a couple of stairs or platforms if necessary. Walk through the cave looking for dark stones with a purple glow - the resource is easy to spot against the background of the surrounding colors, just grab a few torches to light the way.
How to get obsidian in LEGO Fortnite
A regular or green pickaxe will not be suitable for mining, so you will need to upgrade the weapon to the blue level. To start upgrade your workbench, create a sawmill and craft a blue pickaxe. For this you will need:
- Cactus Stick×3: Created at a sawmill from ordinary cactus, which is mined in the desert;
- Sand Claw×3: Dropped by sand wolves, which also live in the arid biome.
Although obsidian is sometimes found on the ground, it is most often found on ceilings or high on walls. Before you create a couple of stairs and platforms, deal with the enemies, otherwise they will blow up all the buildings. Don't be afraid of lava - it does little damage, wooden structures won't burn from it, and a lava waterfall won't cause any damage to anyone.
How to use Obsidian
Obsidian in its original form is almost never useful - it must first be processed in a stone crusher and turned into obsidian blocks.
How to make an obsidian block
Open the construction menu and, in the tab "Workplaces", find the stone crusher. To create it you need:
- Kornevyaz×20: mined in standard caves in the green biome;
- Marble×20: can be found in the same caves in the green meadows.
Interact with the stone crusher and, in the list that opens, find an obsidian block: for production you will need 1 unit of ordinary obsidian.
Obsidian blocks are useful in the later stages of the game for crafting epic purple equipment, artifacts, leveling up your workbench to the maximum level, creating a furnace, some decorative items, and also making a large chest.
