Epic Games’ most recent venture, LEGO Fortnite, appears to be a huge success. You’re released into a vast world, whether you choose to travel alone or with companions.
As you gather resources, enlist villagers, construct structures, and glide around, there’s a lot to experience! There will also be regular updates to broaden and improve the player experience, as you might anticipate with any new game mode. For those who play Fortnite, this is an exciting time!
In this article, we will explore how to travel faster in Lego Fortnite.
How to Travel Faster in Lego Fortnite
There are numerous methods in LEGO Fortnite to expedite travel. Making a glider is the simplest way for players to travel and soar elegantly from the top of hills or mountains. Players can construct a vehicle by combining a button, thrusters, and balloons on a platform to travel great distances somewhat safely.
There’s no set blueprint for this type of vehicle. Most players create one eventually out of curiosity, similar to how players used the building mechanics in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. Provided the Balloons hold the platform with Thrusters on in the air, and the Button turns the Thrusters on and shoots everything in the right direction, players will travel faster.
The only drawback to this faster travel system is that in order to land, players must carefully demolish the balloons after shoving down the thrusters. If they wish to go back the way they came, they will have to rebuild the car from the ground up. We find that running and walking the distance is easier.
How to get around quicker in LEGO Fortnite explained
There are a number of faster ways to get around LEGO Fortnite, but they all require some amount of effort and work, so we’ll guide you through them.
How to craft a Glider in LEGO Fortnite
The Glider is functionally the same as what you use in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom, and allows for quick traversal from a vantage spot. To build one, you need to do the following:
- Craft a Loom – 9 Flexwood, 8 Flexwood Rod and 6 Sand Claws
- Get Silk from a spider – Spiders are found in the grasslands
- Get Wool from sheep – Sheep are found in snowy biomes
- Put Silk and Wool in the Loom – This makes Silk and Wool Thread
- Place Silk and Wool Thread in Loom – This gives you Silk and Wool Fabric
- Go to the Crafting Bench and select the Tools tab – Here you can craft the Glider
Once equipped, you can use the Glider in mid-air. Do note that it does use up your Stamina, and if you run out, you will plunge to your untimely end and respawn without any of your equipment.
How to craft a Train in LEGO Fortnite
Staying true to LEGO, you can essentially build anything you like – even trains – as laid out by TrueTriz on YouTube.
This is perhaps best suited to Sandbox mode, as opposed to Survival, as the materials required are very large. No doubt some dedicated gamers will do it, though.
Essentially, you need to choose an uninterrupted path between two points such as mountains in separate biomes, and build up as high as possible using Rustic Staircases.
You then need to lay out the rail using the Rustic Thin Floor.
The actual Train itself is comprised of two Dynamic Foundations that need a small gap between them. You then need to use Wheels that sit on either side of the rail to keep the Dynamic Foundations attached.
You will also need an Activation Switch on each Dynamic Platform, and these will control Thursters that you will place on the opposing ends to allow you to go backward and forwards.
How to craft a Flying Machine in Lego Fortnite
Before we go any further, let me warn you that this is very dangerous and requires precise timing because you could easily lose your life doing it.
Secure your foundation to a staircase to keep it in place, and then position a balloon in the center. After that, mount a thruster with an activation switch to operate it in the center of the platform’s back.
After that, separate the staircase’s foundation from yourself, ascend by floating, and press the activation switch to continue.
This gets risky because you have to lay blocks on the side you want to turn to in order to turn.
In order to land, you must stack enough blocks on each side to counteract the balloon’s thrust.
Conclusion
As we wrap up this guide, remember that mastering fast travel in Lego Fortnite is an ongoing journey. Experiment with different strategies, incorporate community tips, and find the approach that suits your playstyle. The Lego Fortnite universe is vast, and with the right techniques, you can navigate it with unparalleled speed and efficiency.
