As you advance in LEGO Fortnite, the game heightens difficulty by scattering rare resources throughout the world. One such rarity is the blast core, crucial for crafting essential tools like the metal smelter. With the metal smelter, you can forge copper, iron, and obsidian bars, or fashion an Inner Fire charm to withstand hot climates within the game.
Locating Blast Cores
To secure a blast core in LEGO Fortnite, you must eliminate a blaster. Blasters, akin to shell rollers, inhabit the lava caves of Dry Valley, nestled within the desert biome.
Located predominantly in the southwest of the map, the Dry Valley is easily identifiable. However, like other caves in LEGO Fortnite, finding the lava caves can pose a challenge. Therefore, continue exploring until encountering one.
Home to numerous skeletons, among the varied creatures inhabiting LEGO Fortnite, the lava caves present difficulties in combating the blasters. Encased in a black shell containing dynamite, blasters are distinguishable by the fiery tip of their shells. Featuring substantial health reserves and inflicting heavy damage, they are formidable adversaries.
Strategies for Defeating Blasters in LEGO Fortnite
Defeating any enemy creature requires various tactics, especially in different biomes. Here, we outline simple steps to conquer blasters and acquire the blast core.
1. Maintain Coolness: Heat Resistance
When venturing into the desert, the abrupt temperature shift can impact your well-being, exacerbated upon entering lava caves. To combat this, prioritize staying cool.
Start by consuming snowberries, readily found in the frostlands, a featured food item in LEGO Fortnite. Ingesting them raw grants heat resistance.
An alternative is crafting a snowberry shake using snowberries and milk. A single shake yields 10 minutes of heat resistance.
Heat resistance effects from food items are temporary. Hence, craft a Cool-headed Charm to avoid passive heating without depleting other food sources.
To craft a Cool-headed Charm, gather 3 Silk Threads, 1 Marble, and 3 Sand Shells. However, acquiring these resources may pose a challenge. Therefore, it’s advisable to carry snowberry shakes when venturing into lava caves.
2. Timing Dodges Effectively
After enduring the intense heat of lava caves, equip yourself appropriately in LEGO Fortnite. While no specific weapons counter blasters effectively, consider using a crossbow for ranged attacks or rely on a knight shield for defense.
Approaching blasters triggers immediate explosions akin to Minecraft’s creepers, causing widespread damage. To mitigate this, utilize the knight shield for defense or execute well-timed dodges. Upon defeat, blasters drop blast cores.
