Fortnite Chapter 2 Season 6 has introduced crafting. Players can now gather up resources while they are playing the game, and make their own weapons and items.
To get the resources players will need to hunt animals, or smash up cars and vehicles to get mechanical parts. Mechanical parts and animal bones are the two main resources that players will need for crafting. There are different types of animals that can be found on the map
- Chickens – found in wooded areasBoars – found in wood areasWolves – found in mountainous wooded areasFrogs – found near water
The animals can appear all over the map, but tend to show up most often in forest areas and wooded areas. They won’t really spawn in at all near to name locations, as the areas are too built up.
All the animals will drop resources that you an use for crafting different items. They will drop bones that are needed to make Primal Weapons, while Mechanical Weapons can be built with Mechanical Parts. Both of them require a Makeshift weapon that can be found as ground loot or from chests as a base.
Materials can also appear as ground loot, from chests, and can even be bought from some of the NPCs on the map for Gold Bars.
