As you delve deeper into Lego Fortnite Odyssey and unlock an array of exciting crafting options, especially Activation Switches and Thrusters, you’ll soon realize that you’ll need Blast Powder. But where can you actually locate this elusive crafting material?
Blast Powder can’t be created through crafting, so you’ll have to obtain it by either looting chests (if luck is on your side) or by defeating certain enemies known to drop it.

Where To Find Blast Powder
Since Blast Powder can’t be crafted, your options for acquiring it boil down to looting chests or defeating specific enemies that drop it.
You can gather materials by breaking down items and structures scattered throughout the world.
But watch out! Destroying Boom Barrels will cause them to explode instead of yielding Blast Powder.
You can find Blast Powder in the following areas:

How To Get |

Be sure to visit these places at night and hunt down the pirate and cowboy skeletons that appear at dusk; they frequently drop Blast Powder. |
You can also find Blast Powder from skeletons lurking in caves. |
Since these skeletons appear every night and in large groups, you can easily farm them for plenty of Blast Powder.
Just make sure you’re equipped with a good weapon, some charms, and a few health items.
