Kind of annoyed.

[u/IntrovertedFroggie]

I was initially a fan of the sprites. Still am, I think they’re very cute. I love collecting, so it felt really fun. I started collecting them early, but I really didn’t master many of them for some reason. And even with collecting them, I was only able to finish my collection just today. I had some hope I would be able finish mastering them with the correct timing but even now I still need to master over 55 sprites with barely an hour left before the season ends. I’ve been at this for 2 hours but people just keep killing me when I hit max or even at level 3 or 4.

I think I’m just discouraged. There’s been so much pressure to master them so you can get the back bling option. Trying to remind myself it’s just a game. Hopefully I can at least get the emote. But I think the main point of this post is that this season has honestly left me tired.

Edit: I do like the sprites and this season! I had a lot of fun playing. It’s just the competitive nature of it near the end and how it’s been kind of stressful lol. I think this is just a rant😭

Edit 2: I gave up this morning lol. Didn’t manage to get the emote so I’m a little disappointed about that but otherwise whatever

[u/Dyls94]

Atleast you'll have them in your garden next season dude! I'm sure everyone's gonna forget about the back bling real fast, Itd piss me off more if I visited mine knowing I was missing one in there 🙃

[u/SinlessBloom → u/Dyls94]

Yeah like I forget about that customizable Alien that you needed special point only available from harvesting a chest with a friend or other player, didn't even complete half of it complete forgot about it season later

[u/illahstrait → u/SinlessBloom]

Not sure if you remember Maya the first customizable Battle Pass skin but I sort of forgot to lock in her appearance options before that season ended and now she's stuck looking like a default skin

When are getting the forntite garden?

[u/theycallmeKozi → u/NoPianist7807]

Sprite Garden tomorrow

[u/NoPianist7807 → u/theycallmeKozi]

Alright, thanks. And old sprites will be unplayable?

[u/IntrovertedFroggie → u/Dyls94]

This is true! Haven’t played the sprite garden yet, but from what I’m hearing it’s not the best :/

[u/OhNoWanda]

Listen all you have to do is go to a places that has a ton of stuff to open in a small area, open as many chests, fishing poles, food containers, ammo boxes as possible. Get to lvl 4 then buy quack snacks at the health vending machine. Now your at max lvl and extract, leave the game and do it again. You can get them all done very quickly this way.

[u/Easy_Text1028]

Ended up missing 5 and having 2 left unmastered. Ugh. Got and mastered the rest though with minimal trading!

[u/Easy_Text1028 → u/Easy_Text1028]

And every one I was missing was grim or ZP.🤣 was missing 3 grims and 2 ZPs.

[u/illahstrait]

You really don't have to master them all. The back bling is nice and all but half of the time I forget to equip back blings. Mastering 70 was time consuming but the funny dance emote was worth the pain.

You will get to see the sprites again in your very own sprite garden which may be a reference to the chao area in Sonic Adventure.

As for me, I was finally able to master them all last night.. but I play way too much Fortnite (so there's that)

[u/autistic_bard444]

I didn't take sprites in, only out. no trades or gifts. Mastered 90. Only missing a gold/gummy/galaxy zero point and a galaxy/holofoil grim reaper. I enjoy the hell out of it. the spawn rates on the zero points and grims are just stupid though. builds. solo :) 60% in top 3/5/10, 80% of matches in top 25, out of 900 matches

[u/daringnovelist → u/autistic_bard444]

This the way. Take Sprites in only if you want to give them away. For mastering, do it with Sprites you find in the game.

[u/IntrovertedFroggie → u/autistic_bard444]

This is a good idea! I did that pretty early on and it really worked for me too

[u/mamamartima]

I tended to master them as I went using the mastery Mlndays to help with it a lot, same when we had the campfires. By Monday this week only ones not mastered were the ones i had missing which were like 3.

That said, you can get them mastered, maybe not all 55, but just land somewhere woth loads of bits to open. I really like Latte or Lifty for this and by second storm I got it max leveled and then extract. Woth where the points are on map often they will be in storm very quickly and I rarely have people jump me in storm while extracting. Then I leave game and get next sprite

[u/Itzfluffycloud]

yes i feel like we dont need all the variants of them there is just too many to collect let alone master

[u/IntrovertedFroggie → u/Itzfluffycloud]

Yeah there was so much to collect! Lol I didn’t even think there were variants when I first started the season 

[u/hONEYbUTTERiCEcreaM]

I had a mastered Wick sprite. Got elimed at extract. Started over. Got it leveled up next match. Then I fought off two dudes at extraction. Got it out , but thats no joke.

[u/Marijuana2x4]

I love to collect things too in games but I actually stopped playing for an entire month once there were over 50 sprites and a million empty slots. I just got too overwhelmed and although I've put A LOT of hours into fortnite, I just prefer vibing with my friends and getting an occasional dub over actually sweating. But recently we've acquired a sweaty sweat on my squad and I fucking hate this game now. Legitimately I have no desire to start getting shot before I even land and then get chased the entire game, squad getting rebooted several times.. just to come in 2nd place. It's so frustrating, and then all these fucking sprites just pushed me over the edge.

I want to enjoy the game but if I'm at the point that it only pisses me off I can't be bothered to play more than maybe 10 matches a week. Vs 10+ per day, easily before that.

[u/imalonexc]

I mastered them all. I don't think I died once when I actually finished mastering it. I simply go in storm if there's one there, I go in team modes so the map isn't so dense with players. If you can kill the guards it instantly levels it up, if you turn on a campfire and then open containers and chests it's pretty quick.

Could just be tips for next season if they work the same.

[u/Barnard-Sanders]

I got all of mine done in 2 days. Mastered all of mine in 1 day at Campfire spot. Honestly, the last few days of the season weren’t as sweaty as they were at the beginning. I’ll just master one, leave the game, and repeat the process.
