George Carlin famously said “a house is just a pile of stuff with a cover on it.” At its core, Lego Fortnite is the same. Epic’s new collab with Lego has become an absolute phenom since it launched December 7, seeing a daily peak of around 2 million concurrent players. Like all good sandbox survival games, it’s driven by the need to gather, store, and organize piles of stuff. But not all stuff is created equal. Some stuff, like wood and granite, is readily available. Other stuff is harder to find. This guide is concerned with the latter, giving you insight on where to find the hard-to-find materials like knotroot, flexwood, and more.
Dead By Daylight Devs’ New Game Is Fortnite Meets Doom
Understanding where to find stuff in Lego Fortnite means recognizing the different biomes on the map. There are four biomes to explore: Grasslands, Shores, Dry Valley, Frostlands. Grasslands are where you’ll begin the game. You’ll find lush open prairies, friendly temperatures, plentiful resources and weak foes. Shores are beachy areas found along bodies of water. They’re not as stuffed with resources, but a good place to find brutes and brute scales.
Dry Valley is your desert biome. Temperature is a factor here, and you can’t explore for very long unless you’ve crafted Snowberry Shakes or Cool-Headed Charms to help you beat the heat. Dry Valley biomes can be hard to find, too. The best method is to get up high, either on nearby cliffs or by building a ton of stairs, and look around for big brown patches of desert. Because every map is built from a different seed, every map will be different, so there’s no fixed location for the biomes. You just have to keep exploring!
Frostlands are, as you’d expect, the snowy biomes. Like Dry Valley you need to prepare for extreme temperatures. You need to craft some Spicy Burgers or Inner Fire Charms to withstand the cold, holding a torch won’t help you here. You’re also not likely to be within walking distance of a Frostland biome either. These are typically found on the extreme edges of the map, and the easiest way to scout and access them is to rig up a hot air balloon.
Now that you know a bit about what the world of Lego Fortnite looks like, here’s a rundown of where to find some of its most sought-after materials.
Where To Find Fertilizer in Lego Fortnite

If I can invoke Carlin once again, sometimes shit is stuff. In Lego Fortnite, fertilizer is a key component in the early game for getting your farms going. Find it on the ground anywhere animals congregate. Hold the gather button down as you walk around and it’ll pick stuff up automatically.
