Where to find Heavy Wool in LEGO Fortnite
Unlike regular wool, heavy wool retains heat much better. Therefore, rams that can drop this type of wool are found only in the snowy biome. Pay attention, though, that the chance of them dropping it is very small. Another way to get this resource is to loot chests in the snowy biome.
But, as you can guess, it's cold there, so you will need cold resistance to avoid dying. To accomplish this, we recommend you go to the desert biome and collect spicy peppers there. They can also sometimes drop from Loot Llamas.
However, it is worth noting that sheep drop heavy wool in LEGO Fortnite with a very low chance. You can spend hours and not get one. So you better try other ways.
Using villagers to collect heavy wool
Villagers occupy sleeping places for a reason. They can help you get your hands on rare resources in LEGO Fortnite, including heavy Wool. But for this, you will need a Spinning Wheel and Loom. They will be useful to you both for obtaining resources and for providing work to your villagers. But of course, this will cost you certain materials:
- Spinning Wheel - 8 Planks, 5 Wood, 5 Wooden Rods, 5 Wolf Claw
- Loom - 9 Flexwood, 9 Flexwood Rod, 6 Sand Claw
After this, select a villager to whom you want to give the honourable mission of obtaining heavy wool in LEGO Fortnite. Tell them to help the village, then select the Refining Jobs option and find Create Textiles in the list. You will only have to return in 1–2 days to get textiles resources, which may include heavy wool.
Chests in Frostlands biome
The final way to get heavy wool in LEGO Fortnite is by opening chests scattered throughout the snowy region. They can be found both in destroyed buildings and in caves. Of course, the chance that you will find the wool you need in the chest is not 100%, but it is much more effective than the option with sheep. Also, you should pay attention to grey-yellow chests, as they contain rarer materials such as heavy wool with higher chances.
What is heavy wool used for in LEGO Fortnite?

- Good Luck Charm
