The main weapon addition in LEGO Fortnite patch v28.20 is the Hunting Dagger, providing builders with another means of protection across the Island. The Hunting Dagger must be crafted at a Crafting Bench in four possible rarities:

  • Common - Unlock the recipe by adding a Bone to the inventory. Craft at Level 1 Bench.
  • Uncommon - Unlock the recipe via Cut Amber. Craft at Level 2 Bench.
  • Rare - Unlock the recipe via Cut Ruby. Craft at Level 3 Bench.
  • Epic - Unlock the recipe using Cut Sapphire. Craft at Level 4 Bench.

According to Epic, the Hunting Dagger works best against distracted enemies as a stealthy defense tool. Upgrading rarity boosts its power incrementally.
