In Lego Fortnite, Cord is needed for crafting items like the recurve crossbow and grappler. While you can occasionally find cords located in chests scattered throughout the map, it’s much more reliable to craft your own supply.
Where do you find cord in Lego Fortnite?
You can craft a cord when you upgrade your Village to level 3 in Lego Fortnite. This unlocks the blueprint for the Spinning Wheel, which is the basic tool to craft a cord.
To build a Spinning Wheel gather the following materials:
- 8 Planks: These can be crafted at the Lumber Mill using Wood.
- 5 Wooden Rods: Also craftable at the Lumber Mill from Wood.
- 5 Wood: Gained by chopping down trees.
- 5 Wolf Claws: Defeat wolves to collect these.
Now that your Spinning Wheel is up and running, you’ll need some Vines as the raw material for cord. The easiest way to get them is by slashing bushes, especially in the grassland biome.
Finally, head to your Spinning Wheel and combine 5 Vines to craft 1 Cord. Stock up on Vines to maintain a steady cord supply!
While crafting cord at the Spinning Wheel is the most reliable way to acquire it in Lego Fortnite, you can also find cord in the following ways:
- Chests: Chests, scattered throughout the map in various locations like caves, houses, and buildings, have a chance of containing cord. However, this method is less consistent compared to crafting, relying on lucky loot drops.
- Villagers: Assigning jobs to your villagers in your upgraded village (level 3 or higher) might occasionally reward you with cord. While not a guaranteed source, it can be a bonus alongside their other production outputs.
- Barter: If you come across friendly NPCs like merchants or traders, you may be able to barter for cord using other resources you’ve gathered.
Cords are used for crafting Drawstring. Which in turn is used in crafting uncommon and rare recurve crossbows. So, the more cords you have, the better equipped you’ll be for tougher challenges!
