The v30.20 update for LEGO Fortnite has dropped, bringing a plethora of quality-of-life changes that make overall progression in the popular mode much smoother. From the inclusion of Brite Bomber's Base for new Survival and Cozy worlds to the revamp of Crafting Bench Upgrades, there is plenty for players to dive into right from the start.

LEGO Fortnite: How to Find Storm-Wild Enemies (& How to Defeat Them)

Players can encounter stronger, storm-infected enemies in LEGO Fortnite - here's how to find and defeat them.

Along with the changes made to the Crafting Bench, various existing recipes for items and gear have been updated. More gear is now available when first accessing the Crafting Bench, and both Campfires and Grills now require Torches to craft. However, the biggest change this update offers is the inclusion of an additional glider, one which can be acquired much easier than the Rare variant. Here is how to get a Basic Glider in LEGO Fortnite.

How To Get A Basic Glider

The Basic Glider functions as a common version of the Glider which players can acquire pretty early on in their LEGO Fortnite world, and is more affordable to craft than the Rare Glider variant. To unlock the recipe for the Basic Glider, players will need to first craft the Spinning Wheel and interact with it. Once done so, players can craft the Basic Glider via the Crafting Bench using the following items:

  • 8 Wooden Rods: Crafted via the Lumber Mill using Wood
  • 4 Wool Thread: Crafted via the Spinning Wheel using Wool
  • 6 Silk Thread: Crafted via the Spinning Wheel using Silk

While Silk can only be acquired by eliminating Spiders, Wool is a farmable resource. To farm Wool, players can tame a Sheep and assign it to a Barn. Once done, players can simply feed the Sheep Vines for it to produce Wool.

How To Use A Basic Glider

Just like the Rare Glider, players will need to place the Basic Glider into their Equipment inventory slot in order to use it. Once done, players can simply deploy their Glider by pressing the Jump Button while in midair. The Basic Glider is a great way for players to quickly traverse from an elevated portion of the LEGO Fortnite Island. However, the Basic Glider consumes stamina at a faster rate than the Rare Glider, and if players run out of stamina while in the air, their Glider will disappear, causing them to plummet and potentially take fall damage.
