Taming and Recruiting animals in LEGO Fortnite
Epic Games/LEGOTaming and recruiting animals in LEGO Fortnite is a four-part process:
- Build an Animal House
- Once your Village reaches level 2, you’ll unlock the recipe for the Animal House.
- In your craft menu, it’s labeled as a “Barn,” which can be made with 10 Planks.
- Give an animal an Animal Treat
- You’ll need a Grill, 5 Vines, and 3 Corn to make an Animal Treat.
- Make a couple of them for backups, but once made, equip it and give it to an animal.
- Shepherd the animal back to your Village
- After petting and feeding the animal, it’ll gain your trust. You need to guide it back to your Village safely.
- If they get hurt, give them an Animal Treat to heal them!
- Assign them an Animal House
- Once the animal is back in your Village, you can assign it an Animal House, and give it a name.
Once you complete all those steps, the animal is yours. That said, you’ll need to keep them happy by feeding them, petting them, or building objects to please them. You can assign a villager to monitor them to make your life a little easier.
