Hello all!
With the new Fortnite season coming up, we're seeing an increase in Sprite trading posts. Since our original Sprite Trading Megathread already has tons of comments, we're starting a fresh megathread to make things easier for everyone to find current trades and requests.
👉 Please use this thread for ALL Sprite trading requests and offers going forward.
A quick reminder: Sprite trading posts made outside of the megathread will be removed. This helps keep the subreddit organized and prevents trading requests from taking over other posts.
If you have an older request in the previous megathread that you're still looking for, feel free to make a new comment in this fresh thread as the old thread will have its comments locked.
And just as before, once your trade/request is complete, please cross out your comment like this so everyone knows it's no longer needed.
Thanks everyone for helping keep the community organized, and happy Sprite hunting!
Has anyone heard anything about the new season?
With the release of the new sprites we’ve seen an uptick of people making trade/index request comments on other’s posts.
Just a reminder that all trade/index requests should go through the trading megathread https://www.reddit.com/r/FortniteOver40/s/cXUE3I4spO
The discord also has an active trading channel: https://discord.gg/DD9WkhVjcS
Trading comments are subject to deletion and we want to try to avoid locking people’s posts because others are changing them into a trading post.

The BR Dev Team
There has been an uptick in Sprite Trading posts recently, so just a friendly reminder that all trade offers and requests should be posted in our Sprite Trading Megathread:
Separate trading posts will be removed to help keep the main feed organized and make it easier for everyone to find discussions, gameplay clips, questions, and other posts.
One member pointed out that they checked the community rules before posting and didn't see anything about Sprite Trading, which was a great catch. We've now updated the community rules to include this, so thank you to everyone who helps us improve the subreddit.
As always, if you have any questions, suggestions, or run into any issues, please don't hesitate to reach out to the mod team.
Finally, thank you all for making r/FortniteOver40 such a welcoming community. It's been great seeing players connect, help each other out, and just enjoy Fortnite together. We appreciate every one of you who helps keep this a friendly place for gamers of all skill levels.
Hello Everyone!
Our community has been amazing by offering sprites to other community members - whether they are creating a post offering to help others, or responding to a post from someone requesting help. It has been awesome to see!
There has been A LOT of trading and the posts are getting excessive and clogging up other posts. To help alleviate this, we are implementing this megathread where all requests/offers for sprites will be posted. Posts outside of this thread will be removed.
When asking for or offering sprites and the transaction is complete, please cross out your post like this so that people know that that the sprite is no longer needed or being offered.
While trading sprites is currently allowed on the sub, but the sub is not responsible for these trades. Please trade at your own risk.
Happy sprite gathering!
We are partnering with the Shenanigans community tonight at 8:30 PM Eastern to run some Reload Duo custom games and sprite hunts. The winners of the Sprite treasure hunt will win an emote!
The game codes will be posted in our Discord https://discord.gg/DD9WkhVjcS or you can watch one of the Twitch streams mentioned on the poster for the game codes to join.
Yes, these images are AI generated and no, this sub did not create them. Either way, insults are not warranted.

Today, a person asked for payment for a sprite in the form of a battle pass. This is not allowed under the rules of the sub. Going forward, anyone asking for payment in exchange for a sprite will be removed from the community.
Currently we are allowing sprite-for-sprite trade requests. If there are any reports of anyone abusing this by not going through with trades as promised, those trades will not be allowed on the sub either.

Happy sprite gathering!

🕘 Encore at 9 PM ET - 11 PM ET || Sunday, 1 AM UTC - 3 AM UTC
🪂 Everyone drops in with a Self-Revive Device and Limitless Seven Sliders
❤️🩹 Your Health regenerates after your Shield breaks
✨ Earn 2x Sprite Dust from extractions

👻 Ghost Sprite now keeps you cloaked for longer at its early levels.
🦆 Duck Sprite now grants more shield per tick while jamming, scaling with sprite level.
👑 King Sprite has had its pickaxe player damage cranked way up - watch out!
😈 Demon Sprite now siphons more health and shield per elimination, with the bonus scaling higher at every level.
New Gummy Sprite variants dropped onto the Island today! Equipped with a Gummy Sprite, you get 10% more Sprite Dust when extracting.
🔥 Epic Seven Sliders now take longer to overheat.
🚫 Chaos Reloader Shotgun has been vaulted.
⚔️** Warforged Assault Rifl**e has been unvaulted and has a tighter recoil while dealing slightly less damage.
The last time the Warforged Assault Rifle was in the loot pool, it was a modular weapon with projectile bullets. Now that it has been converted to hitscan without modding, we're slightly reducing its maximum damage per second while increasing its accuracy to help maintain overall balance. This addition helps round out the AR meta as a third option to consider when looting up.
🧹 Common Chaos Exploder Rifle has been removed from floor loot.
💥 Chaos Exploder Rifle now does significantly less damage up close, but no longer has any damage drop off. The damage per shot was significantly reduced but is now consistent at all ranges.
We've also recently increased the XP amounts that you earn in Battle Royale when you:
Reach each storm circle phase.
Open chests.
Get eliminations and assists.
Revive and reboot your team.
From v41.00 Update Notes
The Zero Point cracked the sky wide open, scrambling and reassembling the Island into the Shattered Coast: a fresh map dropping mid-chapter with twisted takes on familiar POIs, a totally fresh pool of firearms, and a whole new way to win. This Season it’s all about getting in, grabbing power-packing Sprites, and doing whatever it takes to extract them for the next match. Welcome to Fortnite: Runners.
THE NEW ISLAND
On the new Island you’ll wade through the crystalline shallows of Sunken Shores, fight your way up the Shattered Coast, and feel the Zero Point's pull at the center of it all.
SPRITES: EXTRACT IT OR LOSE IT
In this new reality Sprites are diverse and coveted helpers, with each granting a special Sprite Power ability when equipped. Find a Sprite in a match, get to an Extraction Site, defend your pick up while the timer runs, and you’ll bank it to your Collection for use in future matches. Get eliminated before you bank your Sprite and it’ll be left on the battlefield for the next player to steal.
Be quick to grab these if you find them:
Rare
Epic
Legendary
Mythic
Successful Extractions also earn you Sprite Dust, the currency that powers your Collection in future matches. Spend Sprite Dust at the start of any match to summon a Sprite you've already Extracted, equipping its Sprite Power before you drop from the bus. The rarer the Sprite, the more Dust it costs to summon. Sprite Dust can also be spent to upgrade your Sprite’s powers and loot.
There are three key ways in which Sprites level up; exploration (finding and opening Chests), eliminations (downing and eliminating opponents) and by extraction (extracting Sprites). Getting a Sprite to max level is no easy feat, so we recommend attempting it across multiple runs, and if you extract a max-level Sprite - you will Master it! It is this Mastery that will unlock progression rewards as you play through the season.
Keep your eyes peeled for rare Special variants of Sprites with a (small) bonus effect available throughout the Season from daily drops to Power Hours and more!
NEW EXTRACTION GIZMOS
There's no wrong way to extract a Sprite. New Gizmo consumable items will be available all season that give you quick ways to shortcut and supercharge your Sprite extractions. Play it safe, or create a high-risk, high-reward hotspot.
These new Gizmos, like the Golden Fireworks that debuted on Community Day, will start in your Pickaxe slot when you jump from the bus. Your Gizmo inventory will persist all season-long, but will expire when the season ends, though, so be sure to use 'em!
Gizmos can’t be traded and dropped when eliminated, so no risk of losing one. You can earn more Gizmos by completing Bonus Goals quests, trading in Sprite Dust, and completing your Sprite Mastery progression!
LOCKED, LOADED, AND SLIDING
Four new weapons drop with v41.00, with more to come later in the Season:
Later in the Season look out for the Bank Shot Pistol that bounce shots off surfaces to hit your target with a ricochet. Trickshot!
Joining them are two new movement items: Seven Sliders & Shock Rocks.
Slide faster than your legs can carry you with Seven Sliders, ADS with your equipped weapon mid-slide to slow time for a clean shot, and let the jets launch you skyward. Shock Rocks arrive later this Season. Crush one to perform three midair leaps.
Returning to the loot pool: Striker Pump, Maven Auto Shotgun, Ranger Pistol, Stinger SMG, Hunting Rifle, and Chaos Reloader Shotgun.
LATER THIS SEASON: BUS EXFIL
Later this Season, matches may end differently. There will be a small percentage chance that in some matches, the Battle Bus will rift back into the map, and you'll have a window to board it. Climb on, grapple up, get at least one teammate to the rift out point, and your team secures the Victory. Multiple teams can win this way per match!
NEW RANKED SEASON + REWARDS
Ranks have been reset and new Ranked rewards are waiting to be unlocked in Battle Royale:
This Season introduces the new Unreal Legends rank, for the true masters of Fortnite who reach Unreal, hold at least 2,500+ Skill Rating, and place in the Top 500 on the Unreal Leaderboard at the same time. You can read about the rest of our competitive and ranked changes this season here.
