Cara Terbaik Untuk Menggunakan Sprite Baru Di Fortnite Bab 7 Musim 3

In Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 3, the sprites are back! These lovable little spirits, which we first met back in Chapter 6 Season 1, have returned to the Battle Royale island following the cataclysmic confrontation between the Ice King and the Foundation in the Shattered live event. Now, there's a lot more of them than there used to be, and they're about to become a lot more pivotal to the Fortnite Battle Royale experience than ever before, because they're Season 3's central gameplay mechanic. And, just for fun, Epic is adding new types and variants each week as we go through Season 3--the latest being the new Galaxy sprites added on June 18.

What do the sprites do?

These sprites can be found wandering around all over the island, and you can just run up to one and pick it up. Doing so will take up a new dedicated inventory slot, show the sprite on your back, and give you some sort of passive ability. Sprites have rarities, and the more rare ones will, of course, be both harder to find and give better bonuses. You can also carry additional sprites in your normal inventory slots--you won't get any ability that way, but we'll talk about the reasons to do this further down.

Opening chests and boxes, and defeating enemies with the sprite in your inventory, will also level up the individual sprite you're using. The higher the level, the more powerful the sprite's abilities are. There are bonus cosmetic rewards tied to mastering each sprite this way. But there are some stakes involved in leveling up a sprite.

Before we get into that, though, let's take a look at Epic's descriptions for what each sprite does, from least to most rare:

• Earth Sprite: You have a chance to find additional rare items when opening chests
• Fire Sprite:Creates a fiery burst when you deal enough damage to an enemy
• Water Sprite: Replenish shield while in water for you and your nearby Squad
• Duck Sprite: Emoting or Jamming replenishes shields
• Ghost Sprite: Grants cloak for a duration upon reloading
• Demon Sprite: Siphon some health and shields when you eliminate an opponent
• King Sprite: Your Pickaxe deals more damage
• Dream Sprite: Grants a random item at each level, exploding with legendary loot at Max Level
• Punk Sprite: Possibly nothing... or infinitely something
• Zero Point Sprite: Spawn a Shield Bubble Jr. when you use a healing item on yourself

Sprites also come in special variants, which are rarer versions that give an additional bonus while you have them equipped. There are three variants so far--Gold sprites give bonus XP on kills, Gummy sprites give extra sprite dust when you extract them, and Galaxy sprites give you bonus ammo when looting.

These special variants count as separate sprites in your collection, and they'll cost more dust to reclaim them when you lose one than it would cost to reclaim the base model.

Epic is expecting to add new sprites and/or new variants every week on Thursday throughout Chapter 7 Season 3.

What do you do with them?

These sprites aren't just for usin', though. In Chapter 6, players would bring them to a shrine, which would reward them with loot in return. It's a similar situation in Chapter 7, but now you'll bring the sprite to an extraction point, where you'll call in an extraction cannister. It'll take about 30 seconds for the cannister to arrive, and in the meantime the extraction point will be shining bright lights and making tons of noise so that all nearby players know you're doing it.

Once the cannister is on the ground, you can store any and all sprites you're carrying, and in return you'll receive a new type of currency called sprite dust, which you can use at a nearby terminal to upgrade your weapons or buy other items. You'll also extract any sprite you have on you when you win a round.

Sprites you've extracted can then be equipped at the start of a match to get an early advantage, but beware that if you don't extract the sprite or win the match with it in your inventory, you'll lose it and any leveling progress you've made with it. Between matches, you can summon a new version of any sprite you previously extracted using sprite dust, though summoned sprites start back at level 1.

You won't always have to go to a set point for the extraction, however, since new Gizmo consumables, called Portable Extractors, allow players to summon an extraction point wherever they happen to be. There are three sources of these Portable Extractors, all of which are limited in some way: you can purchase one Portable Extractor per day from sprite terminals for 2,000 sprite dust, you can earn one per day from completing daily quests, and you can unlock four of them by mastering two sprites, and another four by mastering six sprites

What's the point of this?

There's a pretty clear gameplay advantage to extraction. Extracting the sprites and earning sprite dust will make it so you can start a match with the sprite of your choosing. It's not hard to see how any of these could turn the tide of an early match encounter and keep your squad alive.

But the sprites are generally going to be less useful later in the match than any good loot you might have found, so it's a good strategy to invest in a future match when you probably already have better stuff anyway.

On top of the gameplay part of it, extracting a sprite will let battle pass owners use it as a customization option for The Guardian skin, which is a mech suit piloted by a sprite. Extracting a sprite allows you to choose it as the pilot for the suit.
