In order to harvest Malachite, you need to be equipped with an Epic-level pickaxe, as any other tool will simply bounce off of Malachite without yielding any resources. Crafting this pickaxe is a multi-step process that involves leveling up your Crafting Bench to its maximum tier, a process that demands rare items like 25 Copper Bars, 25 Obsidian Slabs, and a Brute Scale.

After upgrading your Crafting Bench, you will have to gather the necessary items to craft the Epic Pickaxe. It can be a challenging process since it mandates the collection of five Frostpine Rods and eight Obsidian Slabs, both of which are scarce resources and require dedicated effort.

The sought-after deposits of Malachite can be found within the icy mountains of the Frostlands, and you can easily identify this region as it is covered in snow with walls of ice surrounding the ledges.

However, it is important to keep in mind that reaching this destination can be a difficult task, given the constant cold. You can equip yourself with a torch to stay warm in Lego Fortnite on the go and consider constructing a temporary shelter for nighttime protection.

Embarking on the journey to obtain Malachite in LEGO Fortnite is a thrilling adventure that not only requires careful planning but also precautions and resourcefulness. With the steps listed in this guide and other rare resources such as Rough Amber, you are now equipped to face the challenges and discover Malachite deposits to harness its durability and strength for your in-game creations.
