LEGO Fortnite offers a refreshing take on the survival genre, straying from the typical fast-paced Battle Royale action. The game has evolved significantly since its inception, introducing features like buildable vehicles in the Mechanical Mayhem update and convenient Launch Pads for quick travel. The Farm Friends update, released on April 23, immerses players in the farming lifestyle.
The latest update in LEGO Fortnite, Farm Friends, brings exciting additions for players seeking essential resources. With the introduction of animal taming, players can now harvest resources like Milk, Feathers, Wool, and Mushrooms. But how can you efficiently gather mushrooms?
Acquiring Mushrooms in LEGO Fortnite
Players can obtain Mushrooms in LEGO Fortnite through two primary methods: farming and spelunking.
Farming Mushrooms
Farming Mushrooms is closely tied to the Farm Friends update. Tameable animals now produce resources over time, with Pigs specifically dropping Slurp Mushrooms. By petting wild Pigs, players can immediately collect some Mushrooms. For a steady supply, players should pet and tame Pigs using Animal Treats, then house them in a Barn. Feeding the Pigs with Vines and Wheat in the Barn will increase Mushroom production. Crafting a Barn requires 10 Planks, while Animal Treats can be made using 5 Vines and 3 Corn.
Spelunking for Mushrooms
Alternatively, players can collect Mushrooms by breaking them in Caves, usually located near cave entrances. This method provides Mushrooms without extensive exploration, although Caves are often filled with hostile creatures like Skeletons and Scorpions.
Utilizing Mushrooms in LEGO Fortnite
In LEGO Fortnite, Slurp Mushrooms cannot be consumed directly like other food items. Instead, they serve as a crafting resource for making Slurp Juice, a healing item. To create Slurp Juice, players need to use a Juicer and combine 2 Rasberries with 2 Slurp Mushrooms.
