The primary gameplay loop in Fortnite revolves around progressing through each season’s Battle Pass. Players complete quests and engage with different aspects of the game to reach level 200 and showcase the highest value rewards for the season. While everyone desires these rewards, not everyone has the time to spend hours grinding each day, leading some to use quick level-up glitches like the Fortnite Lego AFK glitch in Chapter 5.
However, this glitch has now been patched in the latest Fortnite update. Epic has introduced several new features to Lego Fortnite, but the removal of the AFK glitch may disappoint many players. This exploit allowed players to effortlessly breeze through their Battle Passes by simply leaving their Lego character idle for extended periods, earning XP passively. It was a highly effective method for leveling up in Fortnite, enabled by an oversight from Epic that persisted for quite some time.
With the disabling of the Fortnite Lego AFK glitch, players are left wondering why it was turned off and what alternatives are available for progressing through the Battle Pass more quickly. Epic likely implemented AFK detection in Lego Fortnite to prevent XP exploits, a measure previously used in the Fortnite Festival mode. This means that XP will only be earned while actively playing, with detection mechanisms in place to deter AFK behavior. This change may lead to a decrease in the player count for Lego Fortnite, as the glitch was quite popular among the community.
If players are looking for other ways to progress through the Battle Pass, they can always resort to the traditional method of actively playing the game and completing quests. For those seeking to gain levels more efficiently, turning to Fortnite Creative XP maps is a viable option. While the Fortnite Lego AFK glitch provided a shortcut to XP, utilizing maps designed for XP farming is a legitimate alternative that Epic is unlikely to patch out.
