How to get Blast Powder in LEGO Fortnite

To get Blast Powder, you need to go hunting for skeletons. However, not all of them can drop this resource. So, to get Blast Powder in LEGO Fortnite, you need to find and kill several pirate skeletons or cowboy skeletons.

Undead pirates can be found only at night in the beach biome. They are strong enemies and also spawn in groups. Therefore, you shouldn't fight in close combat with several skeletons at once. Instead, you should take your crossbow and shoot them from a safe distance. If you are accurate enough and hit their heads, you will kill them much faster.

After that, all you have to do is run up to their remains and pick up the priceless Blast Powder. This way, in just a few nights, players can farm large amounts of Blast Powder without any problems. But for this, you will need a lot of arrows. You should also enchant your crossbow with Essence of Luck to increase the amount of drops. And don't forget to take something for protection, as sometimes skeletons can spawn right behind you.

As for cowboy skeletons, they spawn in the desert biome. Otherwise, they are not much different from pirates, and you can shoot them with a crossbow using the same strategy. Also, in addition to skeletons, the source of Blast Powder in LEGO Fortnite can be chests scattered throughout the world. But since the chance of getting Blast Powder is very low, we recommend you hunt skeletons.
