Summary
A newFortniteupdate increases the number of Earth Sprites available in the game to five, which makes it easier to find them. Earth Sprites were released as part of the Chapter 6 Season 1 Update inFortnite, and they have quickly become one of the most sought aspects considering they can help players get really powerful weapons very early on in the game.
After an eventful collaboration with Marvel, thesixth Chapter ofFortniteintroduces a Japanese themefor fans. The updates add an all-new map featuring a plethora of exciting POIs, alongside new weapons, mythics, and much more. While fans are always eager to try out the new features in the update, one feature has remained quite elusive. Thankfully, that is no longer the case.

In a new tweet,Fortnitereveals that it is increasing the number of Earth Sprites available in the game. Since their release, only two Earth Sprites have been spawning on the map. These twoEarth Sprites appear at a random location inFortnite, out of a total of twenty-two possible spawn points. However, after the new update, five Earth Sprites will be spawning on the map.
What Are Earth Sprites Used For in Fortnite?
Earth Sprites are creatures just like Water and Air Sprites, but they serve a different use. WhileWater and Air Sprites inFortniteare used to get certain perks in the game and are easily found, Earth Sprites are much harder to find due to their low spawn rate. Players can interact with Earth Sprites and get extremely powerful items in return. What makes them so powerful is that it is a guaranteed way of getting Legendary items, which typically take a lot of searching and luck to acquire.
Fortnitefans are quite elated to see the change, as many noted that they were unable to encounter an Earth Sprite despite playing the new season since its launch. What makes things even worse is the fact that Earth Sprites are also required to complete one of theFortniteChapter 6 Season 1 Quests. After this change, players should likely be able to complete the quest with much more ease, since it drastically increases the odds of finding them in the game. In fact, some fans added that they are easily able to spot them after the change. The Magic Mosses and Flooded Frogs area is regarded as the best area to find them, so players should definitely check them out to improve their chances.
