There are a whole bunch of resources you can get in the world of Lego Fortnite. But while things like wood and granite are easy to figure out, Knotroot can be confusing at first. It is one of the most essential early game resources that allows you to craft tools like the Uncommon Pickaxe and the Uncommon Longsword besides being used for upgrades.
In this guide below, we will explain everything you need to know about getting Knotroot in Fortnite and what you can use it for.
How To Find Knotroot In Lego Fortnite
Knotroot is found in Caves that spawn in the Grasslands biome. Knotroot looks like roots growing out of the dirt walls inside of these caves. If you explore enough, you will eventually run across the entrance to one of these caves, once found they will appear on your map with a cave icon.
But before you go out journeying into the depths of these Caves, you might want to upgrade your Crafting Bench so you can craft the Uncommon Forest Axe. Knotroot can only be gathered with a Forest Axe of Uncommon rarity or higher.
You should also craft a couple of Torches and bring along a Villager who has a Torch in its inventory. Carry some wood as well so that you can build stairs and platforms to reach some unreachable ones.
Once you have that, head over to the Cave and find the spirally-looking roots coming out of the walls or even ceilings, and use your Uncommon Forest Pickaxe to cut it. If you run out of wood to build structures, there will also be Wood spawning on the ground inside the caves; so make use of that.
