There are a lot of things to do in LEGO Fortnite and a lot more items to use in crafting a variety of stuff, such as equipment.
One of the more difficult things to get in the game is Blast Cores, which are commonly used to create explosives. On top of this, Blast Cores are also used as materials to build other utility structures.
Getting Blast Cores is not as straightforward as you would have hoped and requires hunting down specific enemies. This guide helps players learn how to get this particular material and which methods are easier or more efficient.
Where To Find Blast Cores
The most challenging thing about getting Blast Cores in LEGO Fortnite is that they are relatively advanced materials.
The only area you can find this material is in the caves in the Dryland biome, which is home to skeletons, free-flowing magma, and other dangerous creatures, according to Sportskeeda.
This particular area of LEGO Fortnite is not a place where players who are not yet that well-equipped should think of venturing.
How To Get Blast Cores
In order to actually get Blast Cores, you need to locate Blasters, which are enemies that look like rock formations. Their looks are what make them particularly difficult to spot, but they are mostly in lava-based caves and usually in groups.
It is recommended to bring a torch when searching for these enemies to make it easier to spot them in the darkness of the area. The main issue with fighting Blasters is that they have a tendency to self-destruct, so keep your distance before they blow themselves up.
What are Blast Cores Used For?
When you get enough Blast Cores from Blasters, you can start using the material for a variety of recipes, such as the gem cutter and the metal smelter. But one of the most notable items you can craft with them are Thermal Detonators, Polygon said.
This is a Star Wars-based item that is essentially a very powerful grenade in LEGO Fortnite. To make this explosive, you will need to use a special crafting bench known as the Rebel Workbench.
Tips for Beating Blasters
Because Blasters are a hassle to fight, getting a lot of Blast Cores can be a challenging effort for any player. One recommendation is using Heat Resistance to prevent yourself from being affected by the high temperature.
You can either dodge or block the Blasters' self-destruct attack by timing it right just before it goes off. Be careful, however, as failing to time things right will result in you receiving significant damage, according to Beebom.
