To start crafting the higher-level gear in LEGO Fortnite, you eventually need to enter the lava caves for materials like copper or obsidian. Finding one can be difficult, so I’m here to point you in the right direction with my own cave location guide.
Lava Cave Locations in LEGO Fortnite
you’re able to find lava caves in any Dry Valley desert biome around the LEGO Fortnite map. In my world, the Dry Valley was located to the south of Grasslands biome where my adventure started. Unlike the snowy areas and the beach, I wasn’t able to see the desert from my village right away and I had to do some exploring beforehand.
Considering every world can be different in LEGO Fortnite depending on the world seed you choose, finding a desert is going to take some exploring on your end.
How to Find LEGO Fortnite Lava Caves
Because the map is based on gear upgrades, you will almost alwaysstart in the Grasslands. From there, I like searching south first just to be safe, but the desert will never be out of reach due to the upgrades you need.
When you locate the Dry Valley, it’s time to start searching for a lava cave. If you’re in this area, then you know that the caves in the Grasslands always have an entrance that you need to interact with. Lava caves are no different and you will need tofind a similar boulderthat sticks out among the rest of the rocks in the area.
Compared to the Grasslands, the lava cave entrances blend in a bit better so you will need to keep a sharper eye. Once you find an entrance though, it will be marked with thesame cave POI symbolon your map and you may always return. Just make sure to have some cooling food before you head inside.
