Rare Villagers offer LEGO Fortnite players valuable resources, so they shouldn’t be underestimated. They are not easy to get and keeping them within your village is also challenging.

By upgrading your Village, you will be able to ask more of your Villagers and assign each of them to different tasks, like getting them to aid you in caves.

How to get Rare Villagers in LEGO Fortnite

To get Rare Villagers in LEGO Fortnite, you need to find them in ruined structures around the land, ask them to explore with you and walk them back to your village where you are able to ask them to join your village. Here are the top ways for getting Rare Villagers in LEGO Fortnite:

  • Rare Villagers are mostly found in the Dry Valley and Frostlands ruined structures where they reside and where you can explore then invite them.
  • Rare Villagers have a very slim chance of spawning in your camp by themselves.
  • You are able to trade rare items with merchants to increase the chance of finding a Rare Villager
  • You can use Villager Potions to increase the chance of finding a Rare Villager.

How to get Villagers in LEGO Fortnite

  1. Build a Village Square (x10 Wood, x10 Granite).
  2. Wait a day or two and a some point within the day, a villager will show up.
  3. The number of Villagers that can join your village depends on the upgrades you put on your Village Hub.
  4. Build structures (beds, shacks, chests, walls) to progress the leveling of your Village Hub.
    • Build the necessary items the Village Hub requires of you to also reach levels.
  5. Go to the Village Hub and upgrade your village.
  6. Talk to visiting Villagers and accommodate to their needs (building a bed, improve the Village Level, etc.) for them to join.

Compared to regular Villagers, Rare Villagers are much harder to find. Rare Villagers can increase your Village rating and provide valuable services, so they’re a big part of making your Village great.

The way Rare Villagers work in LEGO Fortnite is by having a spawn rate within your world as you explore each biome to the fullest. Rare Villagers are most likely to spawn in Dry Valley and Frostlands biomes within the ruins. If you are going to explore, bring foods that are resistant to the weather conditions!

Tip: Food Galore!

Villagers who specialize in gathering food such as Beef Boss and Slush will never leave you hungry again since they store their food and wait to give it to you.

We know that Rare Villagers can appear in several different ways. Sometimes, you see them randomly appear in your Village. That’s the easiest way to get them, but there are low chances of it happening.

You can increase your chances by trading rare items with Merchants and using Villager potions, though. You can also find them in trading posts and rare biomes.

Tip: Bring your inner charms!

If you are exploring for Rare Villagers, you are going to be traversing a lot of land so bring your inner charms and whatever foods that grant resistances!

In the mountains within the Frostlands, for example, you can find the Yeti. When you find them outside your area, you can ask them to Explore with you and take them back to your Village. Once home, you can suggest they join your Village, but they’ll certainly be picky. They’ll tell you if you need to make some upgrades before joining. But don’t worry: they will wait for you while you complete the requirements and join you once it’s done.
