What is the Scavenger Ability?

The Scavenger Ability is one of the character classes from the Skywalker Saga that grants the player the ability to journey through the road less traveled, navigate through forbidden paths, and solve mission-based puzzles throughout the game. 

You may have noticed blocked paths in your travels since playing the new LEGO entry and have probably been confused as to what that means.

Well, to navigate those, you will need the Scavenger Ability.

How to unlock Scavenger Abilities

There are three total Scavenger Abilities in LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga.

To unlock these exploration-based abilities, you will need to get yourself to The Force Awakens, Episode VII’s story mission titled “Scraps for Scraps.”

You’ll need to collect around 20 scrap pieces littered about the locale known as Niima Outpost during this mission.

Once completed, you will be granted the power to create all of the Scavenger Tools, with the ability to cycle through them whenever needed. 

Lastly, you will be met with a tutorial teaching you how to use the Glider, Breaker Blaster, and Net Launcher you just crafted, and once that is completed, you will have unlocked the tools for the remainder of the game. 

As an alternative to this method, players can also get their hands on the three tools by playing as Wicket in ‘The Chewbacca Defence’ level in Episode VII, Return of the Jedi. Fun fact.

  1. Between the three Scavenger tools, select your desired item
  1. Once selected, you will have an unlimited amount of use from each ability
