Flexwood is only found in the desert biome, known as Dry Valley.

To find the Flexwood, you would need to travel to the Dry Valley. You’ll know that you are in the Dry Valley when you start seeing cacti around. These cacti, upon cutting them down offer you Flexwood.

How To Cut The Cactus?

In order to cut the cactus and obtain Flexwood in LEGO Fortnite, you need a Rare Forest Axe or higher.

To craft a Rare Forest Axe, you need to gather the following items:

5x Cut Amber
3x Knotroot Rods

You can get the Cut Amber by using Rough Amber in a Gem Cutter. You can make the Knotroot Rods from the Knotroot found in the caves. Once a cactus is cut, it will give you Flexwood as a reward. You can collect it and bring it back to your village in order to upgrade it and unlock other items.

Uses Of Flexwood

Flexwood is a vital resource that you need to upgrade your village. Flexwood is required in both unprocessed and rod forms.

Some of the uses are listed below:

To upgrade the village from Level 9 to Level 10.
Flexwood unlocks many weapons, such as a Rare Pickaxe, Rare Recurve Crossbow, and Uncommon Knight Shield.
To start building vehicles, you also need Flexwood.

My Thoughts On Flexwood

In my personal experience, getting Flexwood is a relatively straightforward process. All you need to do is travel to Dry Valley, having a Rare Forest Axe. Crafting this axe may take some time and effort, but once you have it, you can easily cut down cacti and collect plenty of Flexwood.
