LEGO Fortnite: how to craft a Totem of Return

LEGO Fortnite’s new expert mode is extremely challenging. As well as being filled with hostile creatures, you have to contend with the fact that if you die, that’s game over. However, there is a way to cheat death, and that’s with a Totem of Return. If you take a fatal blow while one of these is equipped, you’ll be safely teleported to your bed instead of dying, giving you a new lease on life.

They’re not easy to get a hold of though, so we’ll explain how to craft one. If you want the full details of what’s new, then check out our LEGO Fortnite v30.10 patch notes.
