The Star Wars and LEGO Fortnite collaboration begins with a bang as a Star Destroyer crash lands into your procedurally generated world. Here is how to visit the crashed Star Destroyer in LEGO Fortnite.
How to Visit the Crashed Star Destroyer in LEGO Fortnite
LEGO Fortnite players can visit the crashed Star Destroyer by following the billowing smoke coming from the wreckage. Players will first see the Star Destroyer after loading into their world after the update. Following an aerial dogfight, the giant ship will crash into your world.
However, the wreckage site will be extremely far away from your village, almost unreasonably so. It will take several minutes of continuous flying in Sandbox mode, and even longer in a vehicle on Survival. Luckily, there is another crashed Star Destroyer in the separate Star Wars biome that players travel to.
The second one also has smoke billowing from its crash site but is somewhat closer to the Rebel Base where making the trip is not absolutely tedious. Players do not have to travel far from their Rebel village to see the smoke in the distance, but it is still a lengthy trip on foot. The crash site on my map was southeast of my village.
The Star Destroyer in the separate area is worth visiting because it completes the quest as well. It is much faster than visiting the spaceship in your main world. It also does not contain Stormtroopers walking around, so looting the place becomes easier if you are not geared up.
The crash site contains plenty of ship parts that can be mined for Scrap Durasteel, a resource necessary to uncover other weapon recipes. There are also chests and smaller structures that can produce Plastoids, which are also necessary to build a Rebel Workbench to craft the new weapons in the update.
