How to get Knotroot Rods in LEGO Fortnite – All Knotroot Rod Locations

As you progress through LEGO Fortnite, you’ll start to need more advanced and hard-to-find resources. One such early resource is the Knotroot, or more specifically what you can create from them: Knotroot Rods. Here is how to get Knotroot Rods in LEGO Fortnite including all locations in which you can find them.

Where to find Knotroot in LEGO Fortnite

Knotroot is found growing inside the walls of caves in LEGO Fortnite. You will need to go and harvest some Knotroot from inside caves, then bring it back to your Lumber Mill. Once you’ve harvested your first Knotroot, you will unlock the recipe for Knotroot Rods. From here, you can use the recipe on the Lumber Mill to convert Knotroot to Knotroot Rods at a 1:1 ratio.

Of course, first, you need to find the Knotroot. Equip an Axe as well as a Torch because in my experience, it can get pretty dark in the caves. Make sure you click the Torch and then choose the option to put it in your offhand. This will light up the area around you so you can explore the caves without issue.

The entrance to a cave will look like the screenshot above. You actually interact with the cave entrance to enter the cave, which will take you to an instanced interior. Now, look at the walls inside the caves and you will find brown Knotroot growing inside. Use your axe to chop it down which will turn give you the Knotroot.

Were to find the caves with Knotroot

The easiest way to find caves is to look for elevation differences as you can see in the screenshot above. There are often caves that will spawn that have the Knotroot and some other resources you may be looking for, like Marble.

So far every cave I have found has had Knotroot in it, so it’s possible that it’s just something that exists inside all caves. That being said, caves are the only locations I have found Knotroot, so it does seem to be exclusive to caves.

That is how to get Knotroot Rods in LEGO Fortnite. You’ll need quite a few as they are required to craft some tools that will break after some use, so make sure you grab as many as you can!
