Brightcore in LEGO Fortnite is one of the resources required to craft certain utility stations like Metal Smelter and Oven as well as metal bars. These are some of the shiny stones that you will come across usually around lava streams in the game. Along with crafting utility stations and metal bars, the resource is also used to upgrade your equipment to make it shine bright in dark places. This is especially useful when you go in search of different resources while exploring caves.
Since Brightcore is one of the rare resources, you will find them pretty hard and tricky to come by in LEGO Fortnite. Not to mention, you will need some proper equipment to mine them efficiently in the game. So if you are looking to upgrade your weapons further with the resource, then here is a guide you should check out further.
Where to Find Brightcore in LEGO Fortnite
Brightcore in LEGO Fortnite are usually found around lava streams which players will stumble upon while exploring lava caves in the desert biome. The Dry Valley can be pretty tricky to come across in the game. However, players can make use of tall structures or cliffs to locate the biome and travel towards it.
Once you arrive at the biome, look for a large heap of boulders that mark the entrance to the lava caves in the game. Before heading inside, it is worth mentioning that Brightcore can only be mined efficiently with a Rare Pickaxe. Along with it, since there are quite a few mobs like skeletons roaming around in the cave, we would suggest that you carry a weapon to survive.
Another important thing worth mentioning is that it’s better to have Snow Berries to resist the heat inside the cave. The heat will potentially deplete your health over time which might leave your cave exploration unfinished.
With everything at your disposal, head inside the cave and look for shiny orange ores on the walls near lava streams. Simply hit the ore with a few attacks and it will drop down Brightcore in LEGO Fortnite.
