LEGO Fortnite Odyssey throws players into a wide-open survival world where they can build to their heart’s desire, explore various biomes, and battle a wide range of terrifying enemies. Throughout their journey crafting new weapons and leveling up villages, players may seek to travel to different islands to diversify their adventure—made possible through a neat feature.
Fast traveling in LEGO Fortnite Odyssey allows players to rift to different areas of the main island or hop to different islands entirely. This includes destinations like the tropical Lost Isles or the Star Wars Village, where players can face Stormtroopers and grab their weapons. However, to fast travel, players will need to obtain a Rift Shard.

How To Get Rift Shards
Defeating Golems
The first and most surefire way of obtaining Rift Shards is to defeat a Golem. Golems are hostile mobs that can be found naturally near different island heads around the Lost Isles, though they can also be encountered wandering all major biomes of the Lost Isles—notably the Plains and Jungle biomes.
Golems come in three variations: Peely, Fishstick, and Tomato. While the Peely and the Fishstick Golems are relatively easy to take down, the Tomato Golem boasts the most difficulty, often requiring Epic rarity tools to defeat. To make short work of a Golem, players should use their highest rarity Pickaxe to deal enough damage and a good rarity shield to block incoming attacks. The Knockback Shield works well here, as it can stun a Golem if players use its charge attack.
Once the Golem has been defeated, it will drop a Rift Shard for players to loot.
Breaking Bus Stations
The second and less ideal way of acquiring a Rift Shard is by breaking a Bus Station. Bus Stations can be found on all islands in LEGO Fortnite Odyssey, and players will often encounter one relatively close to the world spawn point. For players looking for a Bus Station, watch for a blue pulsing light in the distance.
To break a Bus Station, players will need access to a Pickaxe of Epic rarity or higher. Once destroyed, the Bus Station will drop 3 Rift Shards, along with all the other resources used to build it.
