Small tip to add for knew players. Petting the animals will give you items, that’s the easiest way but animals also have a preference of food that will make them drop more. Cows like Mushrooms and will drop 3 milk instead of 1 of you drop a mushroom in front of them. Chickens like corn.
What about sheep?
@@soggyandroid what mat do sheep prefer?
Ooh I didn’t know this
@@paulwheeler3897 pretty sure the food for sheep is wheat

Lego Fortnite has been a surprisingly fun experience and a nostalgia trip.
big tip: save a bunch of wool and silk early game, build the spinner wheel, then loom (you need blue axe), then craft a glider ASAP. its a game changer for travelling/exploring and stays with you upon death. also, keep about 10-30 wood on you at all times for making beds (if you need to recover backpack), or for building stairs so you can reach stuff like knotwood in caves, amber ore in the desert, etc. keeping wood on you gets even more helpful once you own the glider since you can basically make a "launch pad" out of the stairs.
This. The glider is the best way to travel in the desert especially. Hit a geyser and glide to the next and so on so forth.
This game ended up becoming a great time sink. I have spent several hours wandering around and it feels like I did nothing, yet I was engaged the whole time. Kind of like Death Stranding. Moving resources from one place to another.
Yess bro I played for 8 hours straight and maxed one of my villages out last night but it felt like I was just chillin playin in the game Yk
Another great part of it is that you’re still earning XP towards your battle pass so you don’t feel like it’s for nothing
Another tip is when exploring caves make sure to have wood to create stairs cause there will be unreachable chests and also when you leave the cave after grabbing everything make a campfire or something outside to remind you you've already looted it.
I like taking enough resources to make a campfire, bed, and crafting bench outside of each cave.
not really an issue if you think about it since there is wood in every cave you can just pick up or chop.
You don't need to mark caves with camp fires. They respawn over time. Or you can log out and back into the gams
I just put a map marker down after I finished looting the entire cave, that way I can see it on the map and don't even have to travel there anymore :)
The cave systems are also connected! So I you can explore entire cave systems like mine craft
The big beasts are brutes and a tip for them, they will chase you but they cannot swim. If you are near water get them to chase to into it and they die instantly.
Here is a tip for the people who want to hunt the monsters.
The big monsters are called brutes there are 3 kinds of brutes sand,frost and the normal use a crossbow to kill them that makes it alot easier I think the normal brute is the weakest they drop brute scales there are 3 brute scales sand,frost and normal.
Edit: they die in water if it's deep enough.
Hope this helps 👍.
Get at least uncommon stuff to kill the brute
If you use common stuff it will take longer and it will be harder
@@bananajuice1421 Obviously
They also die in water
@@DJBigMeech Ty for reminding
You can make little candles with the vines ... pretty great to mark your steps....
@@soggyandroidpretty sure thats why he said to use them to mark your steps… not about keeping warm
@@soggyandroid he said to mark his steps not keep warm lol
@@MtpMuzikyou don’t know if he or she means a candle that you can light
Companion tip... If you are lucky enough to find a random NPC sitting out in the wilds, TELL THEM TO FOLLOW YOU but don't invite them to your village. That way, you can assign jobs to all your main villagers and keep them in production, but at the same time you get to have a follower around who helps but doesn't occupy a slot in any of your villages.
Omg this is genius
This works until you have 3 villages at level 10 and have the max 15 villagers spread across 3 villages then you cannot have followers as they count as the 16th and you can have max 15 including those who live there plus anyone that is following you but sont kive in any of your villages. But that is super end game so you can do this till then
Done this accidently 😭🙏
@@BROADBANNED LOL I DIDNT EVEN JNOW RHIS WAS A THING!! Because I have 3 villages and 2 are max occupancy and the frost one I only have 4 that way I can find peely
@@Dimebeautybycharlita found frozen Peely as soon as I first found frost biome. He was 50 metres from the grass border. Only legendary I ever saw...
My son and I have watched about a dozen video's now trying to learn how to get better. You really did a great job with this one! I'm new the Fortnite, more of a sim racing gamer. My son loves Fortnite and got me to play Lego Fortnite and now we're both hooked.
Awesome!
W dad
Epic should give a option to move items around in your village. Also have you fought the big creature yet. Great video
Something I keep trying to find the answers to but haven’t seen it mentioned anywhere is that the requirements to upgrade your village depend on the biome the village is in. Upgrading your village in a dry mesa biome uses different materials than a village in a grasslands biome.
That's true, I never even considered the possibility of building a village in a biome other than grasslands, since we all start in the grasslands first to have something to rely on before venturing out far
@@verylate3881 definable do it, you get different building recipes in different biomes, desert gives the castle pieces whereas ice lands give the shogun pieces
The biggest tip for starting out is to go near the cold area and farm snowberries and then make your first base right at the edge of the desert. This will allow you to have snow berry juice early to survive the desert caves because that is where you will need to go first, also by starting your first village at Desert, the NPC’s in your camp will kill the skeletons and the ones near deserts with the cowboy hat drops blast powder so you will constantly have blast powders laying all around your camp from NPC is killing them. I get 10 a day.
making your first base right at edge of desert is only good idea if you have a grassland cave nearby, otherwise i'd say to build somewhere in the middle between the cave and desert. you will need to get knotwood and marble from the grass caves even in late game. what do you like to use blast powder for though? i have about a stack but have barely touched it
@@yungbroc are used to make grapplers and thrusters because the map is so huge. I haven’t even gotten close to unlocking all of it plus there are so many islands on the backside of desert so I made a boat. I’m hoping there’s water all around the map so I can travel around that way.
This is so funny cause im playing lego fortnite rn with no idea how to play it but i actually farmed snow berries at the start and now i have a base in the edge of a dessert/green land 🤣🤣🤣🤣 I did this without knowing either
@@projectpat2262 just make a glider bro, its literally permanent once you make it. and prob works a lot better than building any kind of vehicle to get around. the map is huge yes but you shouldn't need more than one of each biome (grass sand and snow) to unlock everything unless youre super unlucky or playing with a team
@@yungbroc how do I make glider?
Tip for caves: bring wood and build campfires to light up every nook and cranny, Campfires remain in the cave forever, even if you leave and come back. and build stairs to reach high up mats. A lot of the knott root in the caves are hidden in the dark.
For my first caves, i gave my follower a torch to light up everything, then i built a workbench lvl2, a wood cutter, a grill, and a few wooden chests right by the entrance. You can get the resources for all of these plus the green sword, axe, and pickaxe within the cave. Also i built campfires to navigate. Put them on the left as you explore deeper then to get back follow them on your right
Lego survival ascended. The destiny 2 killer 😂
Tip that will probably get patched: build a big square foundation, then put the same size one on top but back one row, then put a little square on top in the back center, then break the bottom foundation. Now, you can move this combined object around to break small and medium sized trees and rocks.
It hasn't been patched as of January 11, 2023
Creator may not have realized this, but dont waste the pick breaking structures, your fists work very well. Otherwise great vid, thanks for your work!
Thanks for the tip!
I was just going to comment this. Glad someone already commented that.
Picks will do more damage tho, instead of punching the structure 3-4 times you can just do a single swing with a good pick.
You can actually waste pickaxe cause Skeletons will spawn at your base and give you endless pickaxes
@@thorikrs5048 using your fist on any built structure does 15 damage to it.
Good tip I've seen is use the shield to block attacks from rollers and then easy to kill them, use a crossbow to weaken wolves from a distance, also an arrow can be retrieved if the shot was missed
That upside down crit is nice
Ffs am I actually going to download Fortnite...?
This looks super fun
Yep, and you'll be playing more than you think you will.
@@Ebontis I did, and I am 🤣
My son loves Fortnite. I don't care for it, at least the normal battle royale stuff etc, I'm more of a sim racing/rally gamer.. He got me to play this new Lego Fortnite and I'm HOOKED! I just hate the 4 hr server time limit. lol
@@GeekyDad84 You can just go back to lobby and requeue into the world which takes about 40 seconds
@@erickpacheco36 yeah, I discovered that not long after I posted this. My son and I both thought when the server kicked us out it reset. I think maybe there are some games within fortnite that do that or something.
Another tip: Rolling logs or boulders into materials you cant harvest yet will allow you to break and harvest them! (or blowing them up works)
Palm trees is a beach not a desert, cacti and succulents is a desert. Also punch things to break them you actually do more damage with your fists than tools. Awesome video ❤
THANK YOU! for mentioning its a beach not a desert 😅.
FYI. The rollers can help you farm granite and wood if you can dodge the rolling attack and make them run into the trees or boulders.
I use the brutes lol. Highly dangerous. But got tons of resources
Rollers die in water if they roll into it 😂
Just got patched chest hack
FYI Beds are also the BEST WAY to level your village. Build like 15 beds and youll get levelled huge chunks toward your village
Thanks for the tips!
Lumber mill is better. Only need 4 to level up 1 level and they are cheap mats
I wish they had a durability on and off option when creating your world , I know you can put a durability enchantments on tools and weapons, but that's like mid too end game, and then you wouldn't have too do the breaking chest exploit too fix stuff 😅
Or even a option too repair would be nice 👌
NGL, the only reason I started playing Lego was to see if I could gain passive Battle Pass XP. I have a hard time keeping up with my kids unless do XP maps every so often.
I didn’t not expect that it would be a survival game that seems like a lot of fun to play. I’ve played it quite a bit at this point but mostly creative. My one survival world has mainly been a crazy amount of exploring. I’ve only got the village to lv2. I built a bunch of useful stuff before I even bother with the village.
Thanks for the video. Lol I had no idea I could pet the animals, other than the lama. Don’t kill the lama, you get nothing. Also I don’t have a desert anywhere near me. Might want to completely rethink my world.
Lego and the racing are pretty big wins for me, in this season. I haven’t played one BR match and I’m lv 40 in the battle pass already. I do hope they continue to support these game modes. I have enjoyed them.
Everything respawns daily (except in caves), so you can pet chickens, cows, sheep, get that gift, then kill them for the meat, and they'll be back next day for more! Also, don't build on spots where you chopped trees down... the trees will respawn right through your building... lol
That was by far the best beginner video for any game I've ever played! Great voice, clear straightforward instruction. Definitely 5 stars for presentation. Oh BTW I learned a lot too! Thank you!
E: I never thought I’d play this
Me: honestly me either.. but Lego!
Yes, you can skip the night. You just need to leave the game, when you load back in it will be the morning
Aha! BRILLAINT
Just discovered this video. I seriously hope that trick with chest they intended to have in the game! It is annoying having to constantly craft new tools to replace broken ones. Or at least give us some mobile way to repair the tools if this is an unintended glitch.
I heard it was patched now
@@jonathanhill6005 Yeah they patched it long ago. As soon as I tried it after watching this video it no longer worked.
Wish i knew about the world options. Im way too invested now to start a new world with no stanima bar
1. Find a seed with nearby desert and ice biome
2. Upgrade your town to get more buildings and Hirelings.
3. Command a hireling to party with you, and give them an Axe and Pickaxe.
4. You can feed sheep, cows, and chickens food and they will drop extra resources.
5. When building, make sure you can use auto Snap to build neatly
6. Restore an items durability using chests (glitch)
Thank you, i literally just started playing i wasnt expecting much but its so cute!!! Its a mix of animal crossing and Minecraft
First must have is glider. Secondly, build glide towers in the directions you want to go. Life will be easier 😌
How do you get the glider, though?!?! I'm at a lvl 9 village and STILL haven't found the glider recipe!!!! (I only just got the loom, tho...)
So many good tips! Wish I would have seen this when I started cuz I was so lost and never played anything Fortnite. Even after playing for a few days now this video still provided good tips I didnt know. Thanks !
My wife and I love playing this and building stuff together and I gave her a key so she can play on our village while I’m at work. Thanks for the tips
Wow thank you...the tip about the caves will get me further and less frustrated. Making me a happy Opa!!!
My first village has a ton of raspberry bushes inside of it, so it's good to know that's ideal.
Also, dual wield torches for a little extra heat
The chest bug has been patched out already.
My brother and I tried it the other day and it doesn't work anymore. Also tool durability is garbage, so I'd recommend farming a bunch of rough amber and Marble Slabs to upgrade your tools with Unbreaking in the essence table to slow that process down considerably.
Damage is alright, but with a villager or two tagging along (in my 2 person group at least), damage isn't all that big of a deal. Brutes go down fairly easily and if you give your villagers better tools they actually get use out of them. If you chop down a cactus or Knotroot without an upgraded axe for your villagers tagging along, they've actively just sit by while you do the work because they physically can't help, same goes for weapons really, though they will always fight even if unarmed.
Just so you know if you have to deal with rollers and you don't have a sword or ax but you do have a pickaxe, the pickaxe works well against rollers.... normally just to spider or wolves the pickaxe only does one damage but to rollers the pickaxe does the same damage as what it does while mining rocks.
If you have a shield and a roller comes at you rolling... block it... it flips them on their backs... makes them easy soft targets to beat up
If you run into any sand rollers on the beach you can easily kill them by making them roll into the water.
@@C-Rage oh yeah I kinda forgot about that when I was commenting.
@@jadedsilverwolf that's nice to know.
You can use rollers to farm higher materials early like pine trees in the snow or cactuses in the dessert. Just get them to roll into the material by standing next to it then dodge.
I would recommend using bare hands on structures instead of pickaxes. Same damage but don’t gotta worry about durability
I did the exact things you said on my second world with stamina and inventory drops
Using rollers as a means to break granite and trees is also useful. Just gotta get your dodge right
@Ebontis
* You CAN skip the night if you are playing single-player. Just exit to the lobby, then queue back into the game. You always start in the morning.
* You can harvest Wood and Granite without spending item durability. Just build a stairs up close to a easy tree or boulder, switch to fists and then punch the stairs. It should collapse on the resources knocking them apart.
* Caves (at lease the grassland ones) can have 2 or 3 entrances. You can mark the entrances with a map marker item. Inside, you can make wick candles as a road.
Great video! The helper isn’t the girl from the Lego movie (wild style) I thought that too, she’s actually the fortnite girl with the lama on her shirt. Can’t remember her name from fortnite but she does look like the Lego movie girl. 😁👍🏼
When I go into the grasslands cave, I take vines with me so when I’m in the cave I make wicks along the path I take so I won’t get lost lol 😂
I know how to make a torch, how do you make a wick?
@@Karlengler1 Q to build, house icon, light icon, wick
Not a bad strategy, but since I tend to venture really deep into caves, I bring a ton of wood (80-100) and granite (30-60) so I can build campfires and small floors in every area I had "touched", so far I had went into grassland cave, desert cave and snow cave, never got lost yet. Campfires gives bright enough light to every corner so I can see where that path leads to before I go close to it. So my strat now for any cave is to just bring lots of wood & granite, I make small granite foundations beside the campfire to "point" out the path to initial entry point
The campfires also light up the cave so if anything attacks you, you know immediately
The chest tool repair trick is huge.... thx
@@soggyandroid bro u dont have to comment to every person😂
i think i’m addicted to lego fortnite 😭
Also , just want to add… the Beach is NOT the dessert. You wont fond your resources needed there for those steps. The Dessert is very dry and reddish with tall towering rock structures. Great Video. Thanks
If you have seeds growing you can hit the plants with your sword to farm crops instead of waiting for them to grow and then use them on grain mill and you can manipulate your crops and end up with 500 snowberry of raspberries or whatever you likeb
OMG.. Thank you for this.. Yes me be a noob and not even have played Minecraft, I did everything mentioned right into 5 mins of this clip.. lol
This is a great well rounded video for starting out. Wish I found it sooner 😅
Brutes take about 120 arrows and 3 common bows to kill from distance
Not true I used a rare bow last night with around 45 arrows and one bow literally killed every brute last night
Punching structures with no tool does just as much damage as with a pickaxe. I like to run with a Sword, Pickaxe, Axe, Blank spot, and Food as my toolbar. It's very efficient.
I also like to keep common items in the toolbar and then switch to uncommon if I need them to save resources.
nice to see u branch out more, this game looks way to much fun ;-)
It is!
It is allot of fun for a short time for me anyway I already maxedy village and crafting bench and I only have like 6hrs in the game it's my first and only game to so I'm still learning
Thanks for the helpful tips 😺
What seed did u have in the world u were early in the location part of the vid
Big tip put 4 camp fires on top of the ice caves in a square formation and you won't freeze to death 👌💯
Fun little bug: if you put your tools in a chest, and then destroy the chest, the tools will have full durability :)
But you will loose the enchantments that are put on it
Patched 💔
Quite clearly shown in the video. Smh
Patched
I built my base right on top of that grass lands cave without knowing it first😅. The idea was to be able to get away from the wolves since they can't jump 😂😅
Also can get vines from farming plants on farmland.
Good luck on the content!
if you dont have a pickaxe, your hands can break structures pretty well too
2 tips for new players in regards to rollers: you can use them to farm resources by baiting the rolling attack and moving out of the way and if you need their shells bait the rolling attack and block it they will bounce into their back
water insta kills if nearby.
@@ImTokumei true but I was mainly focusing on more generally practical. Stuff that can be used anywhere on the map
Yea whenever I go anywere too go get supplies I bring a villager either too the desert or caves they can’t die so they fight for you makes it really easy
My butterfly took me to that gigantic sand moster on my early game
Great commentary and tools to use for the game. :)
I remember my first time playing. I got basic tools and ventured into the Arctic Unknown. But I ended up dying on the side of a mountain and could see my bag all the way from spawn
Girl from Lego movie and A PINK teddy bear at 12:30 BAHAHAHAHAHA! My man doesn’t know his Fortnite it’s Brite bomber and Cuddle Team Leader
You can also kill the lego sheep and chickens for meat too. But it's best to get rid of the wolves first so that you can use the other resources from sheep, chickens and cows.
No your still better off killing the sheep, cows and chickens. Unless you plan on standing next to them for a day to get more resources. Animals despawn after you move away, each time you see animals there new ones. So leaving them has absolutely no benefit to you, your best petting them to get there resource (feeding if you want aswell) then killing them for the meat straight after
You saved my life thank you so much
Learned yesterday that the caves are connected I enter in one next the my base but came out very far from my base.
I noticed that the huge rock monster was getting attacked by the wolves that I ran away from. They followed me to him and his life went down.
can you give us that seed?
FYI: don't use a pickaxe to destroy buildings! Use you hands! It does just as much, without using you resouces!
Thanks for all the tips, really helpful. I like the breaking the chest to repair items lol. I do wish they would add the feature to repair tools however, it's a pain having to craft new ones all the time. Also I would like the ability to move a workbench after I placed it instead of breaking it and rebuilding
you need to farm woods earlier to make a fence or walls earlier, cos skelly sometimes attack you out of nowhere when you afk at your place, cos my stone processor get destroyed by them XD
Ace video dude, loved it!
Thanks a ton!
First time here good preview!
What was the seed you were playing in the beginning of the video?
To wing agents the big monster u can use yhe flexwood green crossbow 😊
What is that seed it looks so good and it is and all the tips you told us came in handy thank you ❤
seed ?????
for the chest repair don't build the chest in the desert mountain, it makes the items drop inside the mountain and you cant get them back
Ahh that explains where my axe went earlier then 🤣🤣
It got patched anyway. It doesn't work anymore.
Fast travel would be nice
@@soggyandroid U have too much time on your hands to be responding to every single comment trying to argue😂😂
@@MtpMuziknot even his vid either🤣🤣
@@ImTokumei right😂i had to check because i thought it was from how he was responding to everyone lmaoo
When I started I had no idea what anything was and built my base half in a cold point and half in a grassland so when moving in and out of houses in my village I get damaged without a torch out. Got to level 8 before realizing I could’ve moved my village and now don’t yet want to take the time 😅😅😅 aaaaaand I just realized you can add hearts cuz I’ve still been rolling around with 3 of them at level 9 🙃
bonus tip, use your hands to destroy buildings. Your hands do 15 damage to structures and you save durability on your tools.
Need a guide on how you built this setup where all your machines are
I'm at the beginning of the video, and just a quick tip: If you turn off any of the settings prior to creating the world, you won't accomplish the Lego Fortnite quests.
get a free camp member with no bed. When the person that gives u the tutorial tried to leave JST have them explore with you. They'll stay by your side even after you log off and back on and they won't count as a person in your village or need a bed
is my first time playing it SO FUN ☺️😊 watch your videos HELP ME ALL THANKS BROTHER GG
Here's one you missed.. and a Bonus.. If you give your partner/NPC a Torch, They will keep The area "LIT" for you, so You, use your shield, not the torch..
For the Bonus.. Give ur NPC... Everything, that way, when you cut wood, they cut wood.. you Mine, They Mine.. you Draw your sword, they too join in battle..
They will Not use a Shield, so give them the Torch.. They will NOT use the Bow.. but give them the BEST Sword you can.. WATCH in safety.. they will rwespwan in time.. so Hold the Line, they WILL BE BACK!!
I liked because it was also my first farm 😂
Do you cover more distance traveling through cave systems
If you feed vines to the cows, sheep, and chickens you get more items from them. In one day ive have gotten 30 milks from 3 cows aslo makes them give you more fertilizer as well.
Hahaha, in a way, feed them more, they poop more too
The best tip I can give is play sandbox so you can fly! And turn on and off the features to make the world you want.
Didn’t realize you can punch the white trees I always start with bushes great too know
the boss can farm for you you can trick him to charge and also if you trick the boss to go into the water he instantly dies
Just found out by accident, in the frostlands if you stand on a lake's edge it counts as water biome and your temp will stabilise, so you should be able to build a base there
