Flexwood is a mid-tier resource in Lego Fortnite that is primarily used for making rare (blue) pickaxes. This resource is not easy to find early on and requires you to have a certain level of tool to harvest it. Flexwood is also used for certain village upgrades and for building more advanced structures. Here’s where you can find flexwood in Lego Fortnite and what tools you will need to harvest it.

Where to find Flexwood

Flexwood can be harvested from cactus in the dry valley.Flexwood is found in the dry valley, which is the desert region in Lego Fortnite. Unfortunately, biomes are randomly located when you generate a new world, but there are a few ways to help locate the region. First, it seems like the dry valley is in the opposite direction of the snow region, of which you can typically spot the snowy mountains from the vantage point of your starting village. Once you have reached the point where you need dry valley resources, the NPCs in your village will occasionally mention which cardinal direction the biome can be found in when you chat with them. The dry valley has large plateaus in it, which can be spotted from a relatively far distance, so look for those.

Once you find the dry valley, flexwood can be harvested from Cactus using a rare (blue) axe. The rare axe requires you to have amber, which can be mined in the dry valley and refined using a gem cutter. You will also need to have upgraded your crafting table to rare in order to craft rare axes. With the rare axe you can chop down cactus in the dry valley, giving you flexwood. Flexwood can be turned into rods and used to craft rare pickaxes.
