Stink Glands in LEGO Fortnite are part of a new wave of content introduced via the Lost Isles patch. You need Stink Glands for one big reason, so let’s show you where to find them and how to use the smelly resources.
The Lost Isles content has finally arrived in LEGO Fortnite as part of the v31.20 update. Up high in the LEGO Fortnite sky is an archipelago—reminiscent of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom—containing a litany of small islands collectively known as the Lost Isles.
They hide many secrets from NaNa Village to how to tame Klombo. Today, we’re looking at one of its nastier additions—Stink Glands. Hold your nose for this one.
Where to find Stink Glands in LEGO Fortnite
Stink Glands can be found by killing the small, crab-like creatures that inhabit many of the LEGO Fortnite Lost Isles above and hoping that RNG allows them to drop for you.
Honestly, the enemies are easy to kill, don’t pose much threat, and are plentiful if you venture up to the Lost Isles. There are many islands in the sky, so you should come across one of these little critters quite frequently.
If you look at our main image at the top of this guide, you can see the creatures you’re looking for, and they don’t have an official name yet: Even the Fortnite Lost Isles blog refers to them as “various critters.” They are plentiful, so keep defeating them, and you should acquire a healthy amount of Stink Glands in no time.
