As with any simulation game, animals are an important part of having a steady source of food and crafting materials. InLego Fortnite,befriending and creating a home for these animals, including sheep, cows, and chickens, can open up your town to a bunch of new crafting recipes.

You’ll notice when you find animals in the wild, you’re able to get regular resources from them, such as Wool. However, it’ll be much more difficult to pick up Heavy Wool, as it isn’t something that necessarily comes directly from sheep. Here’s how you can pick up the elusive item inLego Fortnite.

Give Your Villagers a Textile Job

Another method for obtaining some Heavy Wool is by assigning one of your villagers to a textile job. You can do this by approaching a villager of choice, choosing the’Let’s talk jobs!‘option,‘Help the village!’, and then’Refining Jobs’, and finally,‘Create Textiles’.To have them complete this job, however, you’ll need to make sure you first have a Loom or Spinning Wheel for them to use.
