Before getting on with the quest for Cut Amber, make sure you have the right tools for the job. You will need an Uncommon Pickaxe in order to have a tool that can break and farm Rough Amber. To get an Uncommon Pickaxe, you must upgrade your Crafting Bench to an Uncommon status. This can be carried out by using eight Planks and three Shells in the Upgrade Bench menu.

You can obtain Planks by processing wood in the Lumbermill and Shells can be acquired by defeating Rollers in cave and grassy areas. After upgrading your Crafting Bench to Uncommon, you can craft an Uncommon Pickaxe using five Wood.

Rough Amber can be found in the Dry Valley, specifically on hills within the desert biome of your LEGO Fortnite world. Before embarking on this journey, make sure you are prepared to explore all the hilltops and attached hill walls to discover the coveted Rough Amber crystals.

With your Uncommon Pickaxe, you can carefully break down the golden Rough Amber crystals. You should thoroughly explore the attached walls and the hills in order to collect a sufficient quantity of crystals. Since the hills can be an uneven landscape to explore, consider bringing some Wood to build stairs in order to access elevated locations.
