It’s that time of the year again when Star Wars-themed items come to LEGO Fortnite, and this time players can get their hands on a new material called Durasteel which is a key component for making various weapons in the game.
The best part is that you can always keep these Star Wars-themed weapons in your inventory even after the event ends. Here’s everything you need to know about Durasteel and its uses in LEGO Fortnite.
Where can you find Durasteel LEGO Fortnite?
There are two main ways to get Durasteel in LEGO Fortnite; the first one is smelting Scrap Durasteel, and the second one is to destroy everything in Imperial Bases with a Pickaxe.
Here’s how you can get your hands on some Durasteel:
- Use your Macrobinoculars to find an Empire Bunker.
- Take out the Stormtroopers who can also drop Durasteel and Scrap Durasteel.
- Once the coast is clear, destroy everything around you with a Pickaxe to get Durasteel and Scrap Durasteel.
Alternatively, you’ve met Captain Bravara in her camp—she’ll ask you to clean her base. There should be ample spaceship remains that can be farmed using a pickaxe, and you will have Scrap Durasteel. Another way to get Scrap Durasteel is to find the crash site of Star Destroyer on the map and farm it to get your hands on Scrap Durasteel.
After that, use the Metal Smelter to convert two Scrap Durasteel into Durasteel, which can be used to craft various Star Wars-themed weapons in LEGO Fortnite.
How to use Durasteel and craft weapons in LEGO Fortnite
Once you have recently crafted Durasteel in your hands, it’s time to create some Star Wars weaponry to help the Rebellion. To do that, first, build a Rebel Workshop and use the following recipes to craft your favorite Star Wars items:
- Bowcaster: Use 10 Durasteel, three Cut Amber, three Cut Sapphire, and one Power Cell to make this weapon which launches explosive shots.
- DL-44: Use six Durasteel, two Cut Ruby, and one Power Cell to make this weapon.
- Thermal Detonator: Two Durasteel and one Blast Core are needed to make this explosive hit wider than an explosive.
- E-11: Use 10 Plastoid, three Scrap Durasteel, one Cut Ruby, and one Power Cell to make this weapon.
After you have your shining Star Wars weapons, it’s time to help the Rebellion, complete quests, and earn studs that can be used to level up your LEGO Pass: Rebel Adventure to get build rewards.
