How to get Rough Amber in Lego Fortnite
To get Rough Amber in Lego Fortnite you need to locate the Dry Valley (or desert) biome. In our world, we spawned in the Grasslands area and had to spend a while running to the south east portion of our map to find the Dry Valley biome.
You will also need an Uncommon Pickaxe or higher to be able to harvest Rough Amber.
When you get to the Dry Valley biome you may suffer from the heat. You can counter this by putting your feet in some of the bodies of water dotted around, eating a Snow Berry, using a Cool-Headed Charm. Also, you can avoid the heat by visiting the area at night, dawn or dusk.
In the Dry Valley you need to look around the tall rocks for semi-glowing yellow formations growing on them - this is Amber. They will usually be quite high up on these rocks, so you will need to build steps to reach them.
Once you can reach the Amber, whack it with your Pickaxe several times until it shatters into smaller pieces you can pick up. You now have Rough Amber.
