LEGO Fortnite: How to craft Bowcaster, DL-44, E-11, and Thermal Detonator in LEGO Fortnite

Whether you want to sport and use a Wookie weapon, shoot at everything except your target like a Stormtrooper, or threaten Jabba the Hut into releasing Han Solo with an explosion, all directions point out to the same objective: building a Rebel Workbench. Whether you are an Imperial sympathizer or a good old Rebel, you will need to collect the following resources to build it:

  • 5x Wood: Chop some trees and collect their Wood.
  • 8x Plastoid: Defeat Stormtroopers to collect them. You can also find some Plastoid in the cave leading to the Rebel Base, just open treasure chests!

Now that you have the Rebel Workbench, you will have to unlock all Star Wars weapon recipes, which is much simpler than it sounds. To do so, you will need Durasteel and Scrap Durasteel. Once you get to the Rebel Base, the first thing you need to do is to clear the rubble around the area, which involves destroying some starship remains. Do it to collect Scrap Durasteel. Then, use a Smelter to process it into Durasteel. This will unlock all recipes at the Rebel Workbench:
