Ninjago has arrived in the world of LEGO Fortnite, bringing a flood of new content and resources alongside it, and Lightning Ink is one of the many resources required in abundance.
The Ninjago content drop in LEGO Fortnite is merely the first part of a major collaboration, with a second part due to drop in 2026, and adds another island to LEGO Fortnite, alongside the Star Wars Island and Lost Isles, meaning there is no shortage of content.
With some much to remember, finding precise resources can be tough, but Insider Gaming has all the details on how to get Lightning Ink in LEGO Fortnite.
Where to Find Lightning Ink in LEGO Fortnite
The best way to get your hands on Lightning Ink in LEGO Fortnite Ninjago is to visit elemental Shrines scattered throughout the map, though you can also head to the Lightning Sanctum.
Shrines for all the different elements appear on the map, located randomly, and an enemy needs to be defeated to lower the barrier. Beware though, as usually these enemies are powerful, including Elemental Wolves and Bears, so make sure you’re well-stocked for a fight.
While on the hunt for a Lightning Shrine, keep an eye on your minimap for a blue Lightning symbol, which indicates it’s the element you’re looking for. Unfortunately, you’ll probably stumble across Shrines for other elements while on your hunt, but it’s worth completing them, if you can, to obtain other elemental Ink.
Once the enemy is defeated and the barrier has been lowered, interact with the Shrine to spawn a chest, which will have Lightning Ink inside, along with other rewards.
You can also interact with the Shrine located by the Lightning Sanctum, though this is an area you won’t be visiting until much later in your progression.
