Obsidian Farming Guide in LEGO Fortnite.

Obsidian stands as one of the rarer materials in LEGO Fortnite. As you progress through higher village levels, you’ll find this coveted resource essential for crafting specific items and leveling up your existing gear. Unlike gems like Amber that are readily available, obtaining Obsidian requires a bit more know-how, preparation, and the right supplies. Fear not, here’s where to find and how to efficiently farm this coveted resource in LEGO Fortnite!


How to Get Obsidian in LEGO Fortnite

1 | Prerequisites

Snowberry Shake, a heat resisting drink in LEGO Fortnite.

Before setting out on your Obsidian-hunting expedition, ensure you have the necessary bases covered:

  • Rare (Blue) Pickaxe: You won’t be able to extract the mineral from nodes with anything weaker, so carry at least two of these!
  • Heat-Resisting Food/Equipment: Prepare a few Snowberry Shakes (Snow Berries + Milk) in advance for 10 minutes of heat resistance. Alternatively, you can also craft and equip a Cool-Headed Charm.
  • Wood: Pack a decent amount for building stairs and floors to reach Obsidian ore nodes.
  • Torch: Since you’ll be delving into dark spots, having some light is a smart idea.

Once you’ve secured these prerequisites and stocked up on food for the journey, move on to the next step.


2 | Look for a Lava Cave in the Desert

3 | Look for Obsidian on the ceilings and walls

Obsidian nodes commonly protrude from the cave walls and ceiling. Enter the cave and look up for dark-purple-colored ore nodes. These are the ones you’ll need to extract using your Level 3 Pickaxe. Use your building menu to create stairs and floors to reach and break the ores for raw Obsidian.

After finishing one cave, continue exploring for more and repeat the process until you have enough or return to your base to process the Obsidian into Obsidian Slabs using a Stone Breaker.
